Fantastic food. Fantastic service from Isaac. I had the carpaccio and limone pasta. Ambiance was wonderful. Will be back and definitely requesting Isaac 10/10. He was knowledgeable and thorough.

Definitely get a reservation since it can be crowded on weekends! Don't be afraid to call the restaurant if you have any questions, the ladies up front and the serving staff are all very friendly and helpful. With that being said, everything was absolutely delicious. If you have a party larger than 5, I'd definitely recommend getting two appetizers for the table. The pasta was delicious. Absolutely delicious and worth the money (although I'd say it was more than reasonably priced). The Limone pasta is not spicy despite the red pepper flakes and is nice and creamy. The pesto pasta is nice and light and not covered heavily in the pesto. My only qualm is that the music was pretty loud so that nearly every table was having to raise their voices and the playlist they were using was all over the place. I still had a wonderful time nonetheless :)

Pepp & Delores is always consistent and very appreciated. We love their food!! Their marinated cucumbers are so good! You cannot go wrong, ordering any of their pastas, however, the spicy vodka has got to be an all-time favorite. We also had the Pomodoro, which was so delicious. Always a wonderful meal with great prices and excellent service!

Had a wonderful lunch last week. Service was as good as always. Only thing I'd adjust is the amount of dressing on the antipasto salad. It was a bit overwhelming. We love Pepp and Dolores and will certainly keep going back.

Great menu, tastes of high quality food with fresh ingredients. Prices are fairly low for most pasta dishes, but the portions are also small. Bread is served as a paid appetizer only. While delicious, three rolls were essentially $9 or thereabout. They were delicious, but I am a fan of some things being included. Again, because of their overall reasonable prices in a day and age were everyone is charging maximum amounts for the basics, I can let this slide. Greens are served in sauce and taste more like soup. Service was excellent, and our table was clean and comfortable. We got lucky with only a short wait, but reservations are strongly advised.

My husband and I were visiting downtown Cincinnati and looking for somewhere new to dine. That's when we discovered Pepp & Dolores on Yelp. They were crazy busy, and it's easy to understand why. First, it's located on Vine Street, near several fun and unique shops. I also loved that they offered both indoor and outdoor seating. And the staff was really friendly. For starters, we shared the Housemade Ricotta, then each ordered a salad. My husband ordered the Wedge, and I ordered the Gem. Both were so good!! For our entrees, I ordered the Pesto pasta, and my husband ordered The Sunday Sauce. The pasta itself is handmade, as well as the sauces on each dish. The dish sizes were perfect, not too small and not crazy large. Both pastas were excellent and quite flavorful. At the end of the meal, we received a couple of biscotti cookies, which was a nice surprise. Our service was quick and delivered with a smile. My only minor complaint is that the carafe of water they bring to the table was warm. It would have been nice if the water had ice in it. I highly recommend that you give Pepp & Dolores a try the next time you're downtown. It's also a good idea to go onto their website first and make a reservation.

I really need to go back and give another try. My friend chose here for her birthday dinner treat. The food was ok, but I wasn't very impressed. After hearing all of the people that love it, I'm wondering if I went on an off night? The food was beautiful and the service was great.

Pepp Dolores in Cincinnati is a perfect spot for an early appetizer and cocktail business meeting. The restaurant portion was buzzing but the bar was pretty quiet. When we arrived shortly after opening, we were the only people at the bar for about an hour, making it an ideal setting for a biz meeting. The charcuterie board was solid and had an array of meats and cheeses, but the standout for me were the cucumbers, which were sweet and refreshingly crispy. The ambiance is cozy with light wood accents and a stunning bar. The bar tender was attentive and very friendly. I'll have to go back for dinner.

Have to dock one star due to poor service my second time eating here. We were told it was going to be a 15-20 minute wait and it ended up being almost 45 - 50 minutes. Took forever to get a server once we sat down. Additionally, drinks came after our food arrived. With that being said, food is still fantastic.
