I’ve now dined with Restaurant L twice. My first experience was 5-star worthy, when accounting for some minor service bumps given it had just opened. Unfortunately, my second visit was not as pleasant.

Restaurant L was recommended to me as “the best chef restaurant in the Midwest” and I decided to make reservations for dinner to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Every aspect of pur visit was absolutely SUPERB! We eat out a lot and consider ourselves foodies. We travel all over the country and the world and try local cusine as well as chef ran restaurants. This was by far one of the best chef’s tasting menus we have ever had. We tried almost everything on the menu by getting the menu gourmand for one and the three course menu for the other. We ranked our dishes and compared the flavors. The food was spectacular. The scallop dish was our number one, followed closely by the duck, the foie gras and the lobster salad. The different textures and combination of flavors really played a fantastic orchestra on our palate and I absolutely adore the use of seasonal ingrediants. Radishes were featured in multiple courses and on a number of cooking techniques that was just exquisite. The service was beyond phenomenal and the entire atmosphere does not fall and even surpass some of the 3 Michelein star places in NYC and LA. This is not a casual dinner, it is an invesement in a culinary show that should be reserved for the most special occasions. We did not get to meet Chef Jean Robert unfortunately, but we will definetly be back to try the winter menu. I highly recommend this restaurant and have only praises to sing about the food. 5 stars!

Most fabulous dining experience we have had in years. Restaurant L offers an atmosphere and menu unlike any other in Cincinnati if not the region. My wife and I dinned at Restaraunt L for our anniversary dinner. We choose the 6 course Menu Gourmand. We were impressed with the taste and presentation of each course. The staff was incredibly attentive and it all reminded me of dinners at The Maisonette years ago.

It’s good portions are very very generous for this type of cuisine. 4.5 stars seems more correct, nice to have some new haute dishes to try, a lot of nice extras are thrown in and really the 2 course menu should leave you stuffed, the 3 course put us in a coma..

I had a great lunch at Restaurant L this past Friday. I believe that is the only day they are open for lunch at this time. I had this incredible soup, a great burger and chips. One of the people I ate with ordered an appetizer that was also very good.

The food was well prepared and beautifully plated but none of the dishes were particularly innovative or surprising. The conservatism of the menu may be due in part to the audience. I was astonished to hear one server explain to a table that he does not normally like lamb but enjoys Restaurant L’s because it does not really taste like lamb. Our server was very knowledgable and attentive.
