“ HIGHLY recommend the KY sticky ribs! They are yummy!! These are a starter, but if you’re here for a light meal this will do. Also, the BRG salad is good for those who enjoy a healthier option like kale and beans. It’s very filling. French fries are pretty tasty too. Great atmosphere right on the river at one of the most beautiful spots. Super kid friendly and also a great date night place. Really has the best of everything. Service was pretty good as well and we were there on the night of BLINK. ”

“ We had an excellent experience on our first ever visit to Filson's. I ordered the KY Bourbon ribs with a side of waffle cut sweet potato fries. They were fall-off-the-bone tender and delicious. I didn't expect the sauce to be so spicy but LOVED it anyway! D ordered the Ceasar Salad with chicken. He liked this classic version with grilled chicken that was surprisingly moist. We were with a group of 8 friends and everyone liked their meals. It's definitely a restaurant we will visit again! ”
“ Had lunch here before attending the Reds game. I had a BBQ burger with Truffle fries. It was great! The staff was very friendly and I had excellent service! I can't wait to try something else here! ”
“ Decide to stop here after we visit the freedom center, which was across the street. I’m so glad we stopped here. The food was very delicious. The ribs were falling off the bone and the gripo chicken wings were the best. Also, if you like ranch dressing you have to try theirs. House made and very tasty. Definitely will be back again! ”
“ Amazing food atmosphere and absolutely amazing service. Faith was able to accommodate our large group and we were last notice due to the rescheduled game. She made sure we were good to go. Chris went above and beyond to make sure our experience was amazing. Thank you all from your front of house to your back for making our evening memorable. ”
