Sacred Beast Diner OTR

Cincinnati, OH. The creative takes on classic American fare plus several visits to our table by the owner, the manager and impeccable servers elevated this to one of the most memorable family meals we’ve ever had. We definitely felt well cared for on this day of thunderstorms, 4/14/24. My sweet great grandson, a toddler right now, had an ear infection. We five sat in the outside area and they turned on the heaters for us because of his earache. They kept checking to be sure he was doing well. Thankfully there were few other patrons dining outside for quite a while. My great grandson walked all over the back area, smiled at everyone and they waved back, threw his food on the sidewalk, and was actually trying hard to contain his ear pain. The staff was SO kind to him and us!!! We ordered the tasting menu (Italian arancini risotto balls in a divine sauce and the wedge salad as an appetizer; Crispy Chicken Schnitzel with freshly grated Parmesan and a spicy sauce; chocolate pudding with pistachios for dessert) plus their French fries with lobster sauce and real cheese curds (we get deep-fried breaded imposter cheese curds in Orlando); a side of Thousand Island dressing for my grand son-in-law who asked for it, some Mornay sauce which we also dipped our fries in, some good old ketchup; the Sacred Beast cheeseburger. My granddaughter got the gnocchi and loved it. My husband got the Goetta breakfast. My granddaughter and I loved the locally sourced Vanilla Chai ( we met the person who creates the vanilla and chai blend at a shop down the street!) and my son-in-law got a beer on tap. My grandson in-law has very high standards for IPA beer on tap. He has a social media following for his hobby of finding the best bourbons and cigars. He actually has companies send him products to review. He didn’t say anything negative but he held back when I asked his opinion about the food and drinks. He said he’d be very interested to see what I wrote. I told him I’d give this establishment 5 stars because of the care shown us by the owner and staff. We had a lovely time. And I enjoyed everything! The price for the meal was steep but one is paying for the fantastic service and real estate necessary for a venue of this kind. They spared no expense to make this an elevated experience. It is great for romantic dates, business meetings, and impressing someone. The servers are dressed elegantly. So yes, five stars and I’d give 10 stars if I could. Kudos to this Cincinnati establishment; may it continue to thrive!

The food is very good. We also had some drinks that were well made. The services rendered by the employees was excellent

This is a great restaurant with wonderful food. I always get the fried motadella sandwich.

Their Dirty French burger is PERFECTION. I will be daydreaming about it for months... Lydia provided wonderful, charming service. Probably the best Bloody Mary I've ever had. 12.5/10

Great food, excellent service, enjoyable ambiance. Will be back.

When You walk in you get a chic interior with a mitered-glass bar, leather benches and brick accents. The staff matches the decor and are up best, knowledgeable and friendly. The vibe might not fit all occasions, but it's worth stopping for a bite and a beverage. I've dined in multiple times and never had a bad dish. Try a bit of limonchello with the ricotta pancakes or a scratch made latte with the French toast. If there's a sauce involved, I can guarantee it's top notch. Parking: A public paid parking lot is directly across the street.
