October 27, 20222 yr Author Inside Cincinnati's top upscale restaurants: RANKING By Andy Brownfield – Senior staff reporter, Cincinnati Business Courier Oct 27, 2022 The Maisonette, the legendary restaurant that once defined fine dining in Cincinnati, is no longer around. But there is no shortage of upscale eateries in the Queen City. Each week the Business Courier brings you a list of the largest players in a given industry – the 25 largest manufacturers, law firms, architectural firms, hospitals. Many of those are easy to quantify: how many employees do they have? How much in local revenue did they bring in last year? Restaurants are a bit different. Chains would dominate locally if you only look at employment, likely revenue too. So we here at the Courier decided to take a different approach: who has the highest average entree price? Not that price necessarily correlates to quality every time, but let's be real, it often does. MORE

December 13, 20222 yr ^Pretty damning feedback on Short Vine from that article: Quote Taste of Belgium’s founder and owner, Jean-Francois Flechet, said the inaccessibility of Short Vine Street was a hinderance to the location there. Additionally, Short Vine seemed like a location with the potential to become a dining destination in the short run, but that potential was never fully realized. “We really liked the area,” Flechet said, “it’s just that particular street with the wayfinding is just horrible.” ... “I’m really excited to be … on the right side of campus,” Flechet said. “We always wanted to be around that development.” I'm not entirely sure what would help Short Vine at this point. I suppose it's just the nature of having three competing business districts around UC (Ludlow, McMillan/Calhoun, and Short Vine), that there will be some "cannibalization" between them.
