The 23 Best Restaurants in Cincinnati, Ohio | Eater

"Northside Yacht Club is one of two landlocked boat clubs in Cincinnati. Founded by two longtime members of Cincinnati’s music scene, the Yacht Club used to be one part punk venue and one part restaurant, the latter known for smoked wings (or cauliflower “wings,” one of many vegan alternatives on the menu) and award-winning poutine topped with fresh cheese curds and duck-fat gravy. These days, the crowds come for the irreverent, limited-time menus, which gleefully imitate and elevate classics from chain eateries; the Yacht Club has collected a number of cease-and-desist notices, one of which is reprinted on the packaging of a beverage formerly known as the Capri Suns of Anarchy. The kitchen also turns out smoked dishes and seriously good bar food, like pulled pork smoked for 15 hours." - Andy Brownfield
