overpriced, undercooked meat, & cockroach parts in meal – This is definitely the place to go if you have lots of cash to burn and also don't mind sampling some of the finer elements of dining such as exotic vermin in your dishes. I know that show Survivor was popular a few years ago, but I did not ask for a cockroach carcass in my meal. This is completely unacceptable. As if that wasn't enough, the soda was flat, and the bathroom was a mess. Toilet paper all over with feces smeared over the toilet seat. I understand it was F... read more
You have to try it – We went to Nicholson's about two years ago and we were NOT impressed at all with the food we got. So when we had friends in town from Scotland I was not to sure about giving it another try, but I am so glad we did. The menu had changed somewhat since we had last been there and to say the least it was fantastic. The crab fritters as scrummmmy and the lobster mac an cheese is to die for. The service was great and the staff were real friendly. It really made our night special when the Chef (who is also Scot... read more
Extremely disappointing – This place has gone way down hill since I was last there a few months ago. The interior, dowdy, drab and boring as it was, has been strangely altered in a disorganized fashion. The charming, entertaining waiters and waitresses have been replaced by a group that appears to be bored and unhappy. In sharp contrast to the waiter who had served my colleagues and I on our previous visit, the staff now appears to be completely clueless regarding the Scotches, wines and beers. The menu has been altered some... read more
Best of Cincinnati - A great local spot for group events – I have planned a lot of dinner/cocktail events all over the country during my career and when I ran into a small (actually it was rather large!) reservations snafu with my own cocktail hour the night before my wedding in Cincinnati this spring (with lots of out-of-towners to take care of) Nicholson's, or more specifically, the local owner Nick saved the day. Nicholson's treated our guests so wonderfully, when they really didn't have to - and everyone loved the food (... read more
A kilted doorman greets guests at this Scottish-themed tavern and pub. – In Short Spacious and softly lit, Nicholson's features high ceilings, wood paneling and lots of mirrors. A beautiful wood bar and light fixtures imported from Scotland add to the authentic feel of the place. Starters of smoked salmon, and spinach artichoke dip are favorites. Sandwiches include herb-basted beef burger and roast pork sourdough. Shepherd's pie and Edinburgh osso buco (lamb shank) round out the menu. For drinking, there are 90 single-malt s... read more
Ahi Sandwich – The ahi tuna sandwich is th ebest damn sndwich in town. It is served on a toasted bun with wasabi mayo!! Get it with a side of sweet potato casserole and a good beer and you'll be happy.
I can't wait to go back! – The food was so good that I just want to go back for more! The service was fast & friendly. This is definately a place to go with a small group of friends. It can get crowded before a show at the Arnoff, but Monday-Thursday nights aren't quite as crowded.
Good Food and Friendly Staff – In town on a business trip. Staff was very helpful and courteous. Both the Beer and the Meal were fantastic.
Don't Miss it! – I've been here twice now (I'm from Philly) and this place has good food and good service.
