    Went to Coppins for a Christmas date night. It was our first time there and absolutely loved it. So cozy with great atmosphere. The drinks were awesome and food delicious. Recommend reservations just because the dining room isn't large. There's also a great bar if you're just going for drinks and apps.

    First time eating at this fascinating restaurant with a really excellent view that is different from most Cincinnati Riverside views. Great outdoor and indoor venue at this 7th floor rooftop setting. Unique cooking system with a complete wood-burning grill centered in the dining room, I walked up to look at the fire and the engineering for the immense grill/oven. There is an enticing, smoky aroma in the restaurant when you first enter. If smoke bothers you then what the heck are you doing coming to this restaurant? Because all of the food tastes absolutely wonderful imbued as it is in that incredible white oak, cherry, apple and pear wood smoke. I would get an appetizer or a side rather than the dessert, because the mushrooms were lovely though with a tart taste that I’m not used to having.. That melded with the smoke did make them very memorable. We also tried the crab/scallop/cheddar cheese, dip. Paired with large brioche style bread, freshly toasted of course, which I actually saw them do over the coals. Cheddar and shellfish, who knew? My barbacoa style short rib with sweet potato, tomatillos and quest fresco was a smoky deliciousness. My wife’s chicken was moist with crispy skin. My daughters duck did not stay on the table long enough for me to examine. It was great I’m told. Every morsel of meat had that smoky undertone. Fascinatingly enough the mushrooms stood the smokiest. Will definitely come back, with friends to smell, eat and gaze at the view. Half off bottles of wine on Wednesdays!!

    We went to lunch to celebrate my wife’s birthday and were immediately impressed by our server, Chrissy, and her knowledge of the menu and wine pairings. The ambiance was intimate and soft at the beginning, but between the house music and the increasing number of patrons, it became quite loud. Still, the food and attention to detail were the stars of the show. The eggplant parmigiana, tagliatelle al prosciutto, and the Italian Stallion cocktail were among the best of the afternoon. To finish, a complimentary donut served with a delicate salted caramel sauce brought the birthday celebration to a special level. We highly recommend and we will return for another great experience!
