Smitty's on Elm in Ludlow is a good, cool little place. Great food.

Been to the Senate once and that will be it for me..Overpriced crap imo.

 

It's definitely on the expensive side, but I've gotten their dog-of-the-day all three times I've been and absolutely LOVED them...

Their Pot Roast sandwich is amazing. They have a lot of good things on the menu at Longnecks. $2 beers on Tuesdays and they have a very wide variety.

I have. I missed chip...but I thought the burger tasted the same. New owner bought all the equipment from Chip.

^Do they still have the cajun fries? I haven't had that place since I was in grade school and my Dad would take me to the downtown location.

Ollie's? I've never had cajun fries there...but that doesn't mean they don't have them...

That's the one. They've got their own original recipe Cincinnati chili too, and a solid goetta, egg, and cheese sandwich as well.

The Senate - known for their gourmet dogs, but I LOVE the lobster BLT sandwich.

 

 

There is a pizza place a couple of doors down from the Senate that is on my wish list...heard it was great but can't remember the name.
