It's a well-known fact that weekends are for brunching. Three area restaurants — Grand Finale, Market Street Grille and Taste of Belgium — made
OpenTable's list of top 100 brunch spots in the country.
- Open since 1975, Grand Finale Creperie Steakery in the Historic Village of Glendale specializes in steaks, chicken, seafood, pasta, crepes, salads and desserts. Its brunch has won awards and the restaurant itself has been recognized by Cincinnati Magazine for Best Desserts and Cincy Business for Best Brunch.
- Harrison's Market Street Grille isn't somewhere most people think of when they think 'best brunch,' but according to OpenTable users, that should change. The menu focuses on using simple but real ingredients and creating home-cooked dishes. Its bourbon menu is extensive and includes Knob Creek, Woodford Reserve and Buffalo Trace, plus it has Guinness on tap.
- Taste of Belgium owner Jean-Francois Flechet is from Belgium, and he knows how to do waffles right. TOB started out at Findlay Market and has grown to six locations— five in Cincinnati and one in Columbus. The brunch menu features waffles and crepes, plus a plethora of sandwiches and salads. And if you can't make it for brunch, swing by for lunch, dinner or to take a dessert or bag of waffles home with you.
