I got delivery because I'm sick. I got the 3 piece and it was incredibly good and was seriously impressed. It's also a great value for the price. Crispy and tastes homemade.
Our lunch was catered by The Eagle OTR today and it was fantastic! They provided the best fried chicken available in Cincinnati along with delicious mac and cheese, spoonbread and kale salad!
Man what a meal. The chicken was great, sides were kicken and drinks were smooth. Try the hot honey sauce I liked it on the corn bread. Found this place online by the other reviews and I’m glad we went. The staff were great no issues and even had some coloring pages and crayons for the kiddos. Parking was a block down the street and was $6 an hour not bad,
The Eagle was such a great restaurant! My husband and I were visiting Cincinnati for the Bengals game and we got snowed in! Our AirBnb was across the street from Eagle so we ended up having dinner there Saturday and Sunday. The drumsticks were amazing especially with the hot honey! The mac and cheese is one dish you must order, it was delicious! The Blackberry Lemonade and Bourbon Punch were perfect. The service is amazing and this place is a GEM!
Absolutely delicious food. The fried chicken was awesome. The coleslaw was the best I've ever had. The Mac and cheese was okay. Service was really good. Love this place!
Great chicken! Helpful staff. Will absolutely come back. Will have to try their famous Mac n Cheese next time. We had the sweet potato crock and the Southern chopped salad with our chicken with hot honey. The honey was spiced just right. Only note, not a complaint - we had reservations, but the place was nearly empty. The staff seemed a little confused as to where to seat us. They offered a booth, but found it was full of table prep gear, so they seared us at the front door. We moved to a table a little further from the open door on our own.
Food was very good. Place was packed on a Saturday afternoon, but we were seated quickly. Nice sized drink menu. We had the fried chicken, which was good but I do wish it was a bit crisper. The hush puppies were amazing , and the collard greens were good too Very fun place.
Oh my goodness the chicken here was amazing. Spicy, perfectly fried and seasoned. We also had the hush puppies (5/5), Mac and cheese (5/5) and the sweet potato crock (4/5, only because I’d prefer the sweet potatoes to be somewhat sweeter). Our server, Zach, was attentive and accommodating. Wish we could go back but we’re just visiting from Pittsburgh.
I had an incredible experience dining here recently. Everything was prepared perfectly and the atmosphere was wonderful. The fried chicken was cooked to absolute perfection with a crispy, golden skin. I also really enjoyed the side dish topped with toasted marshmallows; it was such a unique and delicious touch. The presentation in the small cast-iron pans was a great detail that kept everything warm and inviting. I left feeling very satisfied and happy. I will definitely be coming back again soon to enjoy this food.
From out of town and looking for somewhere to eat and we were SO happy to come across The Eagle. The server was real nice and said “I don’t say this just because I work here, but this chicken is REAL good”. And he was SO RIGHT! They make their chicken different and it shows! There was amazing flavor in all of our food. Chicken, fries, Mac & cheese, and the spicy honey on the side?? 🔥 The spicy chicken dip was insane also! Amazing portions on everything we ordered as well. We were stuffed and still had leftovers. I see it’s a chain & I wish there was one by me!
