Best Restaurants for Foodies in Blue Ash

Food was delicious! Would go back again. Drink were great as well

Steak was fantastic! Service really good. If you haven’t been there, go!

I always love the food at Alfios! Delicious every time.

Everything was delicious! For apps we got the shrimp and lobster cocktail which came with a cocktail and tartar sauce, but what made it was the lemon curd! We also got the focaccia with a truffle butter that was really good. Entrees we got lobster butternut squash carbonara which was hearty and they do not skimp on the lobster! We also got the scallops that nearly melt in your mouth. I highly suggest creamsicle cloud for dessert. It was the perfect dessert. Oh yeah, the drinks were great too. We got the smoked pear which was dangerously good, it’s also a very well balanced drink. Our server was Mark and he was very nice and made excellent recommendations.

I’d been to The Park Pour in Blue Ash once before to have afternoon tea with two friends, M and G. But last night, we all decided to try the restaurant for a casual pre-holiday meal as their dinner menu looked great. I booked a reservation through the user-friendly OpenTable app; we arrived at 5 pm and were practically alone in the restaurant which was fine with us. I started off with a hot Chai Latte; the hot steamy latte had just the right amount of sweetness and spice, and I could’ve easily downed another cup but knew I wouldn’t have had room for dinner (M had a Blackberry Margarita, and G had a mug of hot water). For an appetizer, I ordered the Stuffed Cabbage Soup; it was so rich, so flavorful, so yummy, it reminded me of the sweet and sour cabbage soup my Bubbie used to make when I was a child (M and G both had the Soup of the Day, a Creamy Chicken with Wild Rice). For dinner, I ordered the Bubbie’s Brisket; the tomato-beef glaze the plentiful portion of very tender braised brisket was swimming in was scrumptious and had such depth of flavor! The bowl also came with some heirloom carrots (I wish there’d been twice as many), a sweet roasted Cipollini onion and two ample Potato Latkes. The portion was the perfect size, and was so satisfying I’d definitely order it again (M and G both ordered the Focaccia Burrata sandwich and left nothing behind but crumbs). About 90 minutes into our visit, a very large party of diners arrived; they were sequestered in the enclosed outdoor eating area just off the main dining space and that’s when the noise really started to escalate. Additionally, all the tables around us were filled by then; conversation still flowed between us but it became much harder to hear my companions. The service provided by the staff was professional, prompt and efficient; orders and payment are both facilitated via tablet. The Park Pour is now my new favorite local eatery.
