Muse In Mount Lookout

Great food

Very pleasant environment with a well rounded and thoughtful menu.

Great brunch! Everything was delicious and the wait staff was very lined and helpful. Highly recommend.

Too much wait, while restaurant was not busy at all...can't imagine when they are! My dish was good, but my friends complained theirs were cold.

We had a reservation and were put at the worst table in the restaurant when it wasn't even full. Wait staff was terrible. It took forever for us to get drinks and even order. The food was not good at all. The tacos I had were bland and the tortilla tasted stale. Because it took so long to get any service, we ended up getting Gelato down the street for our dessert.

Great server, food was mediocre. Vegan nachos were yummy, all else was just ok. Vegan donuts were horrible.

Just heard about this place during restaurant week. I came with some friends on a Thursday night so they had live music. The service was good but slightly slow. I do however like the atmosphere and the decor was pretty eclectic. The food was creative. Had a cheese board to start and for the main course had their seared duck breast. The duck breast was full of flavor and I would highly recommend.

Nice quaint restaurant in the heart of Mount Lookout Square. Recommended for brunch: coffee is amazing, and the breakfast burrito is incredible. The staff is friendly and the facilities are very nice.

Loved our meal there. The food and service both excellent. They had live music too which was great! And go on Thursdays for half off bottles of wine!

When I first entered Muse, I didn't know what to expect. The lighting was dim, candles were lit, and soft mellow music was playing. In that instance, I knew that my experience was going to be very different, and wonderfully so, than any other dining experience I had ever had. I tried the five course vegan tasting menu and, to my delight, the elements of art and flavor were combined beautifully with each course and the wine they were paired with. As I savored each bite and each sip, I could tell there was passion put into every ounce of this art gallery of a restaurant. Well done!

* Food quality, creativity, attention to food detail = 5 star without a doubt. The chef has a vision and you can tell she's doing her best to share it with the community. Local farms dictate what is being served on the menu.* Service could use a little refinement, it's a bit disjointed but they're trying which is enough to keep a high rating due to food experience.* Ambiance is great. I adore the interior design and decor.If you want a little nit pick, I felt a few of the vegan dishes I tasted could have used some additional sauces. They were just a touch on the dry side which does allow you to experience the true flavor of the ingredients, but wasn't as pleasing texturally.Also, portion size on the main dishes were a little light. Again, not bad, but as a decent size guy, I could have used more.Overall, most enjoyable.

This is a great, small restaurant right in the Mt. Lookout Square area. The menu is different than what you find at many places in the Cincinnati area. Their soups (butternut squash and tomato basil) are both delicious. I really enjoyed the chick pea curry dish. They also have some creative cocktails that are quite good. This is definitely a place to check out.

Lame place. Weird food. Goofy staff.

I went for Greater Cincinnati Restaurant Week and ordered from the $36 three course menu. All three dishes were excellent, and the service was great. Definitely recommend, especially during Restaurant Week.

We went for brunch at 10am and were the only people in the restaurant for the duration of our visit. We were offered cocktails and declined, asking for coffee instead. The server offered to brew a fresh pot, and ten minutes later we had coffee that was body temperature at best. Food was good but a very light portion. The decor feels very kitschy with lots of hot pink neon and steel but in a way that is distracting, especially when the music playing was a lot of Grateful Dead.
