Hole-in-the-wall burger place in Northside doesn't quite live up to the gem in its hidden gem status. Ordered the "Hammstein", "Buns n Rose's black bean", and vegan "James Brownie" milkshakes. Pros: Large variety of eclectic burgers, including a couple vegan options, all with fun, quirky names. They also offer gluten free & pretzel buns. Though it fell apart easily, I appreciated that the bean burger seemed fresh and handmade - could see the beans. Milkshakes can be made with vegan ice cream (coconut ice cream & almond milk). Fries were great, and burgers tasted decent. Cons: Limited seating in a tight space. Atmosphere is a little grungy, and staff seemed stressed and rushed despite there not being many people. Vegan milkshake was like syrup - not good. Biggest issue: Staff were NOT knowledgeable about dietary restrictions. I asked if the milkshakes were entirely vegan or if it was just an ice cream swap > was told it was totally vegan > turns out the mix-ins are not necessary vegan (the brownie had egg and I had to ask 4 times before I got that answer.) Sadly, can't say I'll be back.

We have ordered via Uber Eats a few times now. I have celiacs, and there is a nice variety of options. My personal favorite is the gluten free french toast. The surfer girl omelet is also very good and the portions are good. Thank you for giving us GF folks a safe breakfast option!

Perfect 5-STAR experience at the Kenwood Cooper's Hawk location yesterday, celebrating Valentine's Day at lunchtime. REILLY provided exceptional and highly attentive service, especially with regard to our gluten and dairy restrictions. She was very courteous and professional. We have visited several Cooper Hawk's across Dayton/Cincinnati area (Kenwood, Liberty Centre, Centerville) and the KENWOOD location is clearly superb in all aspects.

We went after a Reds game, so the restaurant was very crowded. 2 of the 4 in our group require gluten free. The menu had limited selections marked gluten free, so we asked what needed to be changed to make the salmon Oscar gluten free. The waiter brings it out just as described on the menu and assured us it was gluten friendly. We ate it and it was delicious but hoping we don’t get side effects. It is difficult to dine out when you feel like your health is at risk.

I really want to give this restaurant a better rating, and maybe I’ll come back for brunch. Gluten free options are not fully gluten free. Haven’t been super impressed by dinner the two times I’ve been!

I finally got a chance to go to the turf club after wanting to for many years. It did not disappoint. I ordered a regular burger with everything and my wife ordered a regular burger with a gluten-free bun. She said the bun was delicious. The waitress stated that they tried many different ones out before they were happy with the quality and the taste. The burger was fantastic! The onion rings were also fantastic as well, probably the best I've ever had. I love the nostalgic atmosphere and our waitress Janice was very thorough and attentive, carefully taking care of us in a perfect manner. I will be back here many times in the future.
