I went here recently with a small group; we split the duck fat fries (yummy), and 2 of us ended up getting the hot dog special the "Nacho Libre." Our server was friendly and informative. The bar was hopping the whole time we were there, and the music was a lively eclectic mix. Note: no reservations are accepted, so show... More

The food here is fantastic, for those who enjoy classic comfort food with a twist of creativity to take things to the next level. There are a variety of starters from mussels to potstickers to roasted marrow to poutine. The poutine is a work of art - french fries with a rich gravy and tangy cheese , topped with beef... More

This place has poutine, which is a delicacy rarely found in the US. To my excitement, senate's poutine also has short ribs on it. It was so rich and delicious. The service was excellent and the Gin Paloma I had was also all the rage. I will be back to visit soon.

We met some friends here for dinner before a show at the Aranoff. We started with the smothered fries which are truffle fries covered with cheese and braised pork and gravy. The only thing I can say is WOW!!! We then shared a specialty hot dog which was equally impressive. The spacing is a little tight, but the food makes... More

I was a little skeptical when told what restaurant and type of food they serve but I was pleasantly surprised.

The creative ways they prepare/serve hot dogs and sausage is half of the enjoyment here but it's the taste that puts the Senate... More

I visit this place every time I am in Cincy. The menu is a creative mix of food truck meets fine dining. It is 75% sausages, hot dogs, etc. Everything is fantastic and the atmosphere and service are outstanding. Go there... NOW!

In Cincy for a concert on 3/27/13, & having read other reviews thought we'd try Senate. Very small, shotgun style bar/rest. We sat at the bar (only available seats) & had very good service. The beer selection was nice, the weenies were fun & tasty. We were disappointed with the lobster mac-n-cheese, as it was very greasy & had only... More

My 24 year old son had been to the Senate several times and raved about the experience so I was excited to go and see it for myself. We arrived for lunch at 1:25 on a Friday and found the long and narrow space filled with diners. We had a short wait but once seated were waited on promptly. They... More

I love this trendy rest. I have been here a few times and i will be back every time. I am in town. Good beer and drinks only neg is the cold when the door opens
