ForkHeartKnife

This is really kinda of a moot point to be reviewing them at this point seeing as they’ve closed up shop, but really it’s more to show my support for the owners of this space.
I loved this place; it was quaint, cozy and and the food was often innovative, always interesting, but also simple. A rotating menu, friendly staff, and food that doesn’t disappoint. I’ve had their brunch, I’ve had their dinner and I have to have more. I hope you guys find a better outlet for your passion, and that you keep us all in the loop, because I will definitely be there to share the love.

Had a wonderful meal there a few Thursdays ago. Totally loved the meal and experience. I am very sad they are closing this hidden treasure down, but at least they are going out on a high note. If you can get there before it closes, you will not regret it. I definitely recommend going as early in the day as possible as you might have to wait around until people leave, a table clears, etc. The prices are totally reasonable and had everything on the menu that day and it was only like $ 20ish. Really dig the BYO and had a great bottle along with the meal. Go!!!

As an update to my last review, I have to say that brunch here is definitely the most enjoyable for me. 3 of us split 4 items and not only were we full but it was a great variety of delicious foods. The food is prepared excellently and the flavor is amazing.
It is really sad that they’re closing in a couple weeks so if you haven’t had a chance to go you have all of 2 nights to have at it.

I can’t say anything that hasn’t already been said about the food (or the seating), but do want to expound a bit on the atmosphere of ForkHeartKnife. This is because making great, cost-​friendly food is not –quite– unique. At least not unique enough to explain their success.
I believe ForkHeartKnife had such success because they represent a way of experiencing life that is too rare anywhere and probably non-​existent in sprawl-​burg.
This experience of life is one of slowness, of richness, of life dripping with immediacy and human connection. FHK is a place that exists for earnest and meandering conversation, and for focused interaction, and for truthful representation of yourself. It is sort of the anti-​facebook.
This is the nature of its overwhelming success and its subsequently overloaded proprietors. Great food is good in its own right, but experiencing something ‘real’ is a spinal tap of manna.
Maybe people couldn’t put their fingers on why they loved it. Maybe that’s why people’s expectations overwhelmed FHK, maybe the visitors came expecting all the nourishment to come solely from what was on their plate, not understanding you must give too, to live in a ‘real’ place, and that you only become full in appreciating the people around you.
I think in a better world, FHK wouldn’t be so special, there would be 16 places in every neighborhood where you tasted community and breathed fellowship and, of course, enjoyed the meal.

After hearing that ForkHeartKnife won’t be renewing its lease in May, we gathered up a group of friends to get in as many meals as we can before they close for the foreseeable future.
With a group of seven, we arrived near 5 PM to avoid potential wait times. We began the night with roasted eggplant/​red pepper dip with salty pita, that was refreshing, light, but very flavorful. I followed that up with a cup of minestrone, green pea risotto cakes, and finished it off with some tiramisu.
You could tell that everything was made with care, and I’m sad to see a place with so much charm and character go. It’s even more disheartening to hear that the owners feel overwhelmed and drained from the entire experience. Although I’m sure I’m not helping by giving them another 5 star review, and eating all of their food (I couldn’t help myself!), I sincerely want to wish the owners best and to thank them for the dining experiences that I was able to share with them. ForkHeartKnife honestly changed my opinion on Cincinnati dining and played a large part in my renewed exploration of Cincinnati restaurants.

I love brunch more than I love my first pet, Issac Newton.
He was a newt, and loveable, but cannot compare to the delight I derive from tasting the first food of the day, a little later than usual, on the weekend, maybe not even breakfast, or maybe just breakfast, or maybe a sandwich, because that’s the way that brunch rolls.
I love brunch, and I love brunch at Fork Heart Knife more than 100, well-​named newts.
I loved the experience that FHK provides. The space is intimate and spare in a good way. The kitchen hosts the essential equipment needed to put out excellent food, and extraneous equipment is not to be found. The menu changes often, focusing on the ingredients at hand. The coffee is strong and the cream is cool.
And the food tastes so good.
This weekend, I had the egg scramble with goat cheese and spinach, which was served in one half of an acorn squash, with a spinach salad on the side. A tablemate had the biscuits in sausage gravy, a classic dish that was improved upon by the addition of acorn squash purée and was well spiced. Every dish was excellent, save one: the Patatas Bravas. The sauce wasn’t creamy, like you would expect the sauce to be. It tasted nice, and was enjoyable to eat, but it was not Patatas Bravas — more like potatoes in a paprika sauce. But by all means, still tasty.
I wish the staff at FHK continued success, and thank them for a wonderful meal. We will be back again, and soon.

ForkHeartKnife is not your typical brunch place… everything about it just says «real». Real food, real people, real goodness. We hopped in on a freezing cold Sunday morning, and were greeted with a smile and a ‘take a seat, and grab coffee if you want’. The menu is printed up on the wall, and everything listed that day sounded amazing. Everything we ordered tasted equally amazing… you could tell it was all fresh. I can’t wait to go back– this is a Cincinnati gem.
A couple things to note: It is tiny inside, and you might have to wait awhile for a table. Since everything is so fresh, they might run out of it, so get there early (this happened to us the first time we tried to go). They seem to always have one or more vegetarian options, if that is how you roll.

I should give this place four or three stars if I only cared about the following: I had to run to an ATM because it is cash only, waiting outside by the heater in the cold while a couple of jerks blew smoke in our faces and talked about how its nice that rich people are revamping over the rine.
But even with those negative things, it was well worth it once I bit into the quiche. It is that good.
The place is small and packed on weekend mornings so be prepared to wait. There is a heater outside in the winter and the staff is as accommodating as possible. Once inside the menu is written on brown paper and seems to change daily depending on the ingredients they have on hand, so that to me just screams fresh.
You have to forgive me as I ate here over two months ago, but I had a quiche with bacon and it was fabulous. Also had some vanilla greek yogurt with sliced pear. Afterward we chatted with the chef who was more than happy to discuss her dishes with us.
I will be going back. I dont care if I have to wait an hour in the cold with no pants on. It is well worth it.

Best Feature: Dear god, the food. THE FOOD.
Worst Feature: Can be hard to find seating!
Thanks to a morning recommendation from Alex S., my boyfriend and I headed out one Saturday morning to grab a bite for breakfast. Unbeknownst to us, Forkheartknife does brunch! Since we were well within the 10 a.m. — 2 p.m. time frame, we dashed on down to check it out.
It’s in Over-​The-​Rhine, so we had to find some street parking. Not really too difficult on that day, so that was a plus! We headed on in on a particularly frigid day — reports were that it was about 15 degrees above zero. We stumbled in from the cold with our fingers numb and noses frozen to find some of the friendliest people on the planet.
There were but 4 – 5 tables to sit at when we came in — all but one were filled. We were warmly greeted and told that we could sit as long as we didn’t mind the table was the community table — meaning our party of 2 would be fine, but another party of 2 might join us at a later date. Since we were totally fine with that, we took a seat, grabbed some coffee and water, and perused the menu.
It’s a totally unique atmosphere — it feels as if you walked into the kitchen of a nearby neighbor or friend. With a bit of music playing and art hung up around the place, you feel rather at home. We put in an order for a piece of coffee cake as well as a breakfast burrito (potatoes, eggs, peppers, etc. wrapped in tortilla w/​salsa, sour cream, and chips) and my boyfriend got a casserole-​type breakfast dish — chorizo, potatoes, and other goodies in a egg custard sauce that is baked into a casserole-​esque form.
(Pardon that description — that’s the best my memory can do :-))
We shared a piece of cake — one piece alone is fine for 2 people — and we LOVED it. When our breakfast arrived, I was thrilled to see the portion is perfect; not overwhelming but not leaving you hungry.
When I took a bite into my tortilla, I couldn’t even believe it. The food tasted so delicious and so incredible, I immediately shared a bite with my boyfriend and sat there for 5 – 10 minutes in awe of how good the food was. I’m fairly sure the only thing that I could say during that time was something along the lines of, «Wow. Oh wow. This is so good.»
Prices weren’t astronomical — Both dishes were $ 8 apiece and the coffee cake was $ 3 — coffee itself was $ 2 with free refills.
Service was beyond fantastic — they are so incredibly nice and we were treated wonderfully the entire time. They let us owe them $ as we did NOT know they are cash only and it was terribly cold out, which was very generous and kind.
Sure enough, this place is in high demand and another 2 Cincinnatians meandered in to sit with us. We had a GREAT time getting to know them and the entire experience was phenomenal! A real unforgettable experience.
Only downsides is that there are few tables and they aren’t open all the time — so I’d recommend calling ahead before you go and see what their availability is. It’s most certainly worth a stop and has hit the top list of favorites around Cincy for me! They are absolutely amazing and the food is incredible.

It’s easy to be overly effusive when talking about forkheartknife. Run by a small handful of people, the restaurant sits tucked away in Over-​the-​Rhine at the top of 14^th Street. The second you walk in the door, someone — usually several someones — looks up and smiles, and whether you’re there twice or a week or come for the first meal, they’re gracious and welcoming.
The décor is simple but fun, with artwork on the walls that changes every so often. The menu is written on a large roll of brown paper that is pulled down for each service. A note — seating is limited, so if you’re desperate to eat there, try to come when they open (5 on Thursdays and Fridays, and 10 on Sundays). If it’s not too cold, there’s generally heaters warming a small patio area (turned on once it gets busy) and if it’s warm, sitting outside is a great way to commune with the city.
All that, and we still haven’t mentioned the food. I try to go once a week (twice, if I’m jonesing for brunch potatoes) and I have yet to eat something that wasn’t completely delicious. Vegetarians and even vegans will often find two or three dishes — every single time — that are safe to eat, while the more omnivorous among you should try everything on the menu.
The selection of dishes offered changes constantly, with a new menu popping up for Thursday and Friday, then another one for Sunday brunch. Things to watch for include any of their dips, served with fantastic toasted pita wedges, and frankly amazing potatoes on brunch days. While the restaurant doesn’t have a liquor license, water is free, coffee is hot and they love to have you bring your own drinks.
If you like food, you should go to FHK. If you like Cincinnati, you should go to FHK. If you live in Over-​the-​Rhine, you should absolutely go to FHK. It’s a good place filled with good food and good people, and my new favorite restaurant in the city.

One of the most insulting things just about every damned restaurant does: had me one of these little buzzer/​flasher things that 100 other people have held that night that I’m sure no one has cleaned to say my table is ready. Why must I be summoned like a Pavlovian? Why would people choose to eat this way?
What happened to «Excure me sure, your table is ready.»?
as far away from that as possible.
Four tables.; Two cooks. No corking fee. No servers. Good food. Relaxed environment. No buzzer thingys.
I loved this place. Very informal with quality food.
Three of us showed up about 7:30 Friday for dinner. The place was full. There’s only about four semi-​communal tables and after about a 20 minute wait on the sidewalk (after being offered apps), one of the owners came out and said she’s going to start issuing dirty looks to get the tables cleared.
No need. Sat down within 23 minutes. Took at look at the butcher’s paper rolled down from the wall with tonight’s menu items a bit confused and the chef/​owner/​server said «Why don’t you just start at the top and work your way down.»
My daughter once told me of a phrase to use with sushi chefs — omakase. It means you’re turning over the meal to the chef and that’s what we did.
And we were glad we did. Mostly vegetarian. I’m a carnivore. But a very happy carnivore after eating there.
Oh, it’s BYOB and I was out the door having fully fed three people for $ 36. Take that restaurant that hands me a filthy buzzer then serves crap food!

You’ll feel welcome at Fork Heart Knife the minute you set foot in the door. Even better than that; if there’s a crowd waiting for a seat at brunch and you’re waiting on the sidewalk in good weather, they’ll have a cup of coffee for you to make your wait more pleasant. You start feeling welcome before you even get in the door.
The food is wonderful and comforting. Try their strata or quiche for brunch, you’ll be ready to crawl back into bed warm and content when you finish your meal.
FHK doesn’t put anything on its blackboard menu that hasn’t been carefully crafted with love and attention to detail. Sides, muffins, yogurts and green salads — they all have a little twist or an unexpected flavor.
Dinner is BYOB, and FHK is a cash-​only establishment. Know that if you go for Sunday brunch, you’d do well to show up right at opening to snag one of the tables inside. After that, if weather permits, you can take a seat outside or wait on the sidewalk for one to open up. They do offer carry-​out.
You leave feeling full, and somehow a lot better than when you walked in. Sure, it helps when you start your Sunday with a ridiculously good brunch, but there’s something beside the strata that makes you feel good eating at Fork Heart Knife.

A lovely addition to the growing scene on Main Street, is ForkHeartKnife, a homey and tiny storefront restaurant, only open on select days of the week and serving some delicious grub.
They are only open typically on Thursdays and Fridays for dinner and brunch on Sundays. Each day, their menu is different, so check their blog and their facebook page for the most recent menu. The menu always features local, fresh, and interesting ingredients cooked in unique ways. I always drool when they post their menu. It is scribbled elegantly on a long piece of paper and posted on their wall.
A few other things to remember: They only accept cash, you can BYOB, and get there early — they often run out of food cause people are eating it all up!
I had dinner there a few months ago just after they opened, and I don’t remember the specifics, but we enjoyed a delicious stuffed pepper full of a fish and veggie combination that was amazing, a cold soup made with avocado, and a yummy lime sugar cookie for desert.
Last Sunday I ventured down the two blocks from my house to enjoy their brunch. They had several ‘Blue Oven Strata’s’ on the menu, one with bacon and the other with veggies. Blue Oven means it was made with Blue Oven Bakery’s bread. Justin had the bacon, carmelized onion, thyme, swiss, and Parmesan strata, and I had the veggie which included artichokes, black olives, onions, green peppers, feta, and mozzarella cheese. They were both to-​die-​for delicious. I had never thought to make an eggy type of casserole using bread as a foundation and a topper. I wish I had remembered to take pictures for you so you could see it’s awesomeness.
On the side we ordered the roasted red potatoes tossed in ‘bravas spice’ (not too sure what it was) and topped with a dollop of sour cream. These were a nice touch to the brunch. A little bit of kick, with a sour cream cooler was delicious. My only complaint was that they were a bit too salty.
I am a big fan of this place, and also the short walk from my house to get there. Their creativity and homey atmosphere is so inviting, and the food is always good.
Posted to my blog: HalfPastAte:

ForkHeartKnife serves five-​star food. So why did I give it only four stars? Because it’s only open 12 hours a week and if you don’t get there on time they’ll either be out of food or they’ll be so busy you’ll have to wait to sit (which isn’t helped by the intimate space). UPDATE: Screw it. That stuff doesn’t matter, this place is a five-​star worthy.
But if you get seated and they haven’t run out of any food then my-​oh-​my is this place fantastic. The food is locally sourced and prepared fresh every day, right before your eyes. You can tell effort and enthusiasm goes into each dish with how wonderful everything always turns out.
Admittedly, I know the owners and I frequent the establishment, but I know a number of folks who own restaurants and I don’t go nearly as often as I do forkheartknife (which is usually every Thursday for dinner!). Because of the frequency with which I patronize this fine establishment discussing the items I’ve eaten and how amazingly well prepared they always are would be too difficult. Just know that their menu changes every week, if not every day, and that everything is good. Really. Everything. If you don’t like something it’s not because they didn’t prepare it well, it’s because you don’t have a taste for it (as I do with cucumber sauces).
Oh, I did I mention how affordable the place is? Take a date, get one of everything and share it all. Your bill will be no more than $ 30 for the two of you. Bring your own alcohol if you’re into it, otherwise they do have water available. Get down to Main and Liberty and try this place out!

I had my first-​ever (and long overdue) experience at ForkHeartKnife this morning, and this tiny restaurant has won me over.
The things I can’t complain about are simple: food, staff, and local-​ness. The food is creative and eclectic, yet it isn’t sloppy and is very very pleasing to the eye in its presentation! The fact that I was able to drink freshly-​brewed French press coffee while our party of 8 was waiting to be seated was fantastic! The staff is incredibly friendly and very courteous; they’re all aware of everyone in their shop.
One negative I’ve found is the size of the space. I like the «hole in the wall» places; in fact, that’s a rather endearing quality for an establishment. Despite this, I was frustrated by how few tables there are (both indoors and out). There are 4 tables inside that can seat no more than 5 people each, and 3 tables outside that seat 2 – 3 people each. We had a group of 8, so 4 of us had to sit at one table and the other 4 of us had to sit at a table on the opposite side of the doorway. Good for groups? Not really.
One thing I wish ForkHearKnife would do is post their brunch menu in advance. I have many selective-​eating friends with whom I’d love to bring here to brunch, but without knowing the menu in advance I’m not confident in them enjoying it there. Without knowing beforehand whether or not there’s something on the brunch menu they’d like, I can’t confidently guarantee they’ll enjoy it there.
Other that the last two paragraphs, I totally enjoyed my time at ForkHeartKnife. It is everything that a quaint little brunch spot should be: pleasing to the eye, soul, and stomach!

forkheartknife from the out-​of-​town, visiting business person perspective:
Before travelling, I checked out what was hot on Unilocal in Cincinnati. Out of the top five, forkheartknife looked the most interesting. So when a local coworker asked where I was interested in eating, forkheartknife was at the top of my list. Before heading over we stopped at an ATM for cash and picked up a six-​pack.
It was a warm evening so there were tables outside and once inside we learned that it was a cold dish night to keep the heat inside down. My first impression was like walking into a family’s home. It seemed to me that nearly everyone inside knew each other and it was a welcoming atmosphere. The space is split evenly: half kitchen, half dining area with a short counter in between. From any table you can easily see what is going on in the kitchen which is located just a short distance away. We took a look at the menu and decided on one of everything.
One of everything was delicious. We had an edaname dip with toasted pita wedges, roasted beet salad, roasted vegetable pasta salad, and some chocolate.
I would definitely come back. If I lived here I would be a regular. The staff were friendly, the food fresh & delicious.
forkheartknife: thanks for a uniquely delicious dining experience.

If you’re digging the growing number of laid back restaurants around town where the people who work their actually appear to be happy and enjoying themselves, and the vibe is decidedly unpretentious, then the new restaurant forkheartknife (and a blog) will be added to your list of favorites quite quickly. Soapbox did a piece on them the other day that covers many of the details of the opening, so we’ll just focus on our experience at brunch.
The Food: The menu was short enough and we were intrigued enough that we ordered one of everything. While waiting for a friend to arrive, we sampled one of the muffins, and while I couldn’t help but think of Betty White on SNL, it was full of raisin-​y, walnut-​y goodness. The fruit gazpacho and lemon bread pudding with raspberry sauce came first. We thought the gazpacho was a fun idea to put a twist on the typical fruit cup, and while I feared it might be syrupy, it was simple and tasty. As for the bread pudding, I always hesitate on this order because often it is too sweet — but theirs combined just a bit of tart with a smooth, not too rich custard to come out very well. And the bread part has that chewy/​crunchy edge that makes stuffing on Thanksgiving so good. A winner, especially for those with a sweet tooth in the morning.
Next came the frittatas — bacon and collards in one and red pepper and collards in the other, both with a bit of parmesan sprinkled on top. Both had a nice flavor, and my only feedback would be that I usually like my frittatas a bit fluffier and a little saltier. We also had a bowl of the whole new potatoes. Topped with a unique mixture of chimichurri and red pepper romesco, the combined flavors continued the slight smokiness that began for me with the bacon frittata. They were like no other breakfast/​brunch potatoes I’ve ever had, and my taste buds were happily curious. Check out some photos of all the food below in the slideshow.
The Ingredients: There’s no mention on the menu of any local, organic, or other notable ingredients. And I didn’t bug them about it today since they’re just getting going. But, I do hope they’ll list their sources as they hit their stride, and I did overhear them talking about buying local produce and looking for a place downtown that is interested in their compost, so it’s clearly on their mind.
The Story, Setting, & Service: I should say from the start that one of the 2 folks who opened this restaurant is a long time Cincinnati-​style connection. You know, the people you know a bit, and see around consistently, and have multiple friends in common? Six degrees of separation — more like 3 inside the city. So, full disclosure, while I’m always hopeful people will succeed and be fruitful — I have an added incentive on this one.
As I mentioned at the top, forkheartknife just feels good — they’ve done a great job with making sure small feels cozy, not cramped. There are also a bunch of nice personal touches that make it unique — a school style clock with «Cincinnati» written in a cool font (which does not yet tell time/​operate), Timmy-​built benches and tables, and more. The menu is written on brown butcher paper that is rolled down on the wall — very cool. Also, the Counting Crows on the radio really made it clear this was my generation’s kind of place.
The place is so small that «service» means looking up at the kitchen area and waiting for all of 5 – 10 seconds until someone locks eyes with you. Food came quickly and without hassle. They’ve got a drink set up where you can serve yourself water and coffee, which works out nicely.
At this point, one basic question that you probably need answered — when is forkheartknife open? Right now, the best way to know is by following them on Twitter, checking their Facebook status, or eyeing the window of the storefront for a sign. As they get settled in, I’m hoping to able to walk over for some of the delicious looking lunch sandwiches that Sierra has been posting about on her blog. Oh, and no credit cards yet if you go — just cash.
I’m excited and hopeful that this will become a consistent lunch option by week and brunch option by weekend, and of course we’d come through for dinner as well. There are, I’m sure, kinks to be worked out in these opening weeks, but from the outside it looks like they’re off to a great start.

ForkHeartKnife is too good for Cincinnati.
It belongs more in Greenwich Village in New York City than Cincinnati, but if it must be in Cincinnati then in Over-​the-​Rhine on Main Street is a great location.
When you walk in the menu is on the left, on a giant piece of paper that is rolled down from the wall. The kitchen is wide open and you can see everything that the chefs are doing. You could potentially carry on a conversation with them while they are cooking. You feel more like you’re in someone’s kitchen than at a restaurant. Inside can seat about 12 or so people, but they put tables outside during business hours. The décor is modern and minimalistic, with the tone set from a few pieces of art, exposed brick, and tables made of thick, rustic slabs of wood.
Why is ForkHeartKnife unusual?
1. The menu is different every time they open. Our menu only contained five items. Items range from $ 3 to $ 6. A dinner for two only cost $ 18, which is EXTREMELY reasonable.
2. Their hours are bizarre. Now open Thursdays and Friday for dinner, and Sunday for brunch. May change?
3. Water is free and the only beverage served, but we were encouraged to bring whatever we wanted next time – including beer and wine.
4. I believe only cash is accepted, but I’m not totally sure. Their items are listed as whole dollars $ 5, $ 7, etc because they do not like dealing with and counting change.
5. They focus specifically on fresh, local ingredients. Much of their ingredients are purchased from the nearby, iconic Findlay Market.
While there a couple walked in, looked at the menu on the wall, told the chefs this place wasn’t for them, then left. Pity, I’m sure they found a McDonald’s somewhere. *Blek!!* The reason I say this place is too good for Cincinnati is because it seems highly esoteric – for people who are serious about eating fresh, local food. Perhaps Manhattan has enough critical mass to support businesses like these, but does Cincinnati? I don’t know, but I sincerely hope so. I am optimistic. These are the kinds of businesses that make a city unique and interesting. Let’s hope ForkHeartKnife stays in OTR for a long time, and keeps its personality. I’d hate to see them succumb to financial pressures to become another ordinary, run of the mill Cincinnati restaurant that’s meant to please the masses. I don’t give 5 stars very often, and this place gets them.

Let me tell you something — I love to eat. To quote the oh-​so-​wise punk-​rock band from the 80’s, The Descendants: «I like food! Food tastes good!» And so it does.
I’m always on the lookout for people and places that feel like I do — people who want to cook, who want to eat, who want the whole experience. That place is ForkHeartKnife.
A tiny shop tucked away in the heart of Over-​the-​Rhine, this place is amazing. You walk in and it smells like home cooked food — and that’s because that’s exactly what it is. A few women opened up this shop as a catering company /​part-​time eatery. Basically, they write up a new menu on butcher’s paper and tack it up to the wall. When I went, there was an appetizer, a salad, an entrée and a dessert — I got one of each for about $ 16 and split it with my girlfriend and it was more than enough.
The food. Oh god, the food. Its hand prepared in a kitchen that’s right behind the counter and you can see the love and time that goes into every portion.
The only issue I had was their strawberry shortcake, which was a homemade biscuit with fresh strawberries. I like my desserts a little sweeter, but that’s just me.
It is a tiny space and often times the tables are filled, but wait around, it opens up pretty quickly.
For the life of me, I can’t figure out their hours. It’s not on their website (
) and nowhere online seems to list them. Still, if you happen across them and they’re open — go! You won’t be sad. You will be happy.
