Norwood​のベストシーフードレストラン

My Meetup Group and I (18 people total) sat together in a private room and thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Our food was excellent as was the service. Thank you!

I cannot say enough about our experience last night. Erick and Kumar did such an amazing job and never left us wanting. Big shoutout to Chef Tone and the rest of the culinary team as all of our food was on point! Thank you for such an incredible evening. We will definitely be back!

Priscilla was an amazing server. Perfect experience to celebrate my birthday!

Second time I’ve been here and the food and service were exceptional. Our steaks were cooked to perfection! We had the 45 day aged ribeye and the porterhouse.. both so good. Our table also had the Sea Bas and the Australian Waygu, in addition we got the potato volcano and brussel sprouts. The favorites for the table were the porterhouse and the brussel sprouts. The porterhouse is more than plenty to share for two people and than some. We added the bone marrow, it was good as I’ve never tried but more of a novelty to try, not a lot of substance. They brought out a complimentary pumpkin cheesecake as there was a birthday at our table. It was gobbled up, very creamy and delicious. Cocktails were a made to perfection as well. They have an extensive wine and bourbon list too. Top it off the views of Cincinnati are spectacular. Plan on spending a little money, especially if you get drinks as well but definitely worth the trip!

Everything about Alara wowed us! One of my dearest friends was in town to visit and we are both foodies! I had heard great things about Alara from other friends, so we decided to try it. I'm so glad we did. The valet parking is so nice, especially since the weather was snowy the night we dined. The atmosphere is elegant and beautifully done. No detail was overlooked. The service was impeccable. Askia, our server, was delightful...so knowledgeable. Everything he suggested was outstanding. We ordered a bottle of wine to complement our dinner choices and that enhanced the meal even more. Portions are large and perfect for sharing. I took home quite a bit for leftovers which was a huge bonus. If you love beets, the beet and goat cheese salad is a must! For our entrees, we chose the Lobster & Butternut Squash Carbonara and Seared Sea Scallops with Brussels Sprouts & Butternut Squash as our vegetable side dish. All were exceptionally prepared. The Carbonara had a very generous amount of lobster so you got some in every bite! Askia recommended we save room for dessert, and I'm glad we did. We had the Creamsicle Cloud and Chocolate Espresso Torte. The Cloud was the most beautiful dessert I've ever seen and it was equally light and elegant. The Torte was beyond rich and decadent. The Prisoner bottle of wine was delicious with the entire meal, but especially that rich chocolate dessert. Cincinnati is fortunate to have some fabulous restaurants, and Alara is one of them. It is a must for a special occasion or an evening of pampered perfection.
