*Per the owner's response, this place gets cleaned ONCE a week and apparently only one employee can clean? No one else during the week at any time? During a pandemic?? Do NOT go here, it is a cesspool by admission of the owner
Absolutely terrible, even for a hole in the wall sports/dive bar. Have always seen the tiger mural on the side and my SO and I decided to give it a try one Wednesday afternoon. They open at 11AM, I showed up at 2PM.
There was trash all over the ground. Looked like a bunch of bottle tops from those mini Fireball glasses, along with empty beer bottles and napkins. Clearly no one even attempted to clean up several hours into being open, or even the several nights (they are closed Monday and Tuesday, so the trash was multiple days old) before. Wanted to sit at a booth, one had old food and glasses, so I went to the other one. Realized there was a huge, sticky rectangular stain on the table, like someone put a slime covered iPad on the table. Waitress came, noticed the stain, and wiped down the spot. I asked for a napkin so I could wipe down the whole table, but she did the one spot and left.
Wanted to order mozz sticks, they were out. Ordered pickle chips instead, and 1 vodka red bull and a water. I'm not sure if it was rock hard chips, the tap water with the weird after taste, or the ice that's probably not handled in a sanitary way like the rest of the place, but one of the three made me sick until midnight. My SO and I now call it "Shi*ty Kitty's". Gross food, gross atmosphere, and I can only imagine what the bathrooms looked like. Go literally...
Read moreWow! The wood smoked wings and home cut fries here are phenomenal. The staff made my daughter and I feel so welcome too. We dropped in right after a Reds game had finished up and the place was hopping.
We are from out of town (South Carolina) and we weren't sure where to eat. We were checking Yelp and Google reviews close to the Hyatt Regency and walked 2 blocks to check it out. As we approached, I saw the smokers outside and was encouraged that this place just might be the real deal. We asked several groups of folks coming out whether it was a thumbs up or thumbs down -- and they were all singing the praises of the wings.
We smoke our own meats at home with a neighbor, and we have plenty of amazing wings and BBQ living in the Carolinas. And this place exceeded all expectations. It is now starred as a favorite and I'm sharing it with my friends. If you're in the downtown Cincinnati area and need a family friendly place, it 100% gets our vote. My daughter said it's the best food we've had this whole vacation, and I...
Read moreMy husband and I decided to eat and drink at Kitty’s before the Bills game on 1/2/22. There was a line out the door for seating but it didn’t take us long to be seated (very nice gentleman at the door seating everyone) and we even had some Bengals fans join us at our table lol. It did take a while for our food but our waitress kept us updated and told us what to expect before we ordered so the wait was not surprising. You can’t beat $20 for a bucket of beer (5 Coors Light) so we didn’t mind the wait. I ordered wings and they were fantastic. I’d wait all over again just for those wings. We also had mozzarella sticks and my hubby had a burger. We were happy with everything we ordered. Cincinnati is a great city and all the fans were so kind to us before, during, and especially after the game was postponed. Look forward to visiting Cincy and...
