Best WLM Reviews
Cozy hole in the wall with a train going around the room. They have super good burgers. Their chili and fried fish are said to be very good, but I have to get a burger when I come here. Mt Lookout is a charming area.
I had the Trainwreck burger, and it was phenomenal… the Cole Slaw was also really good… this was one of the best burgers I’ve had in quite awhile. Great job Zip’s!!
Was recommended to try a Zip’s burger for it was “the best”!
This is a very small place that I would like to say is “a hole in a wall”, very small space.
IMO, it was a really good thick fresh hamburger! I also had fries and a bowl of chili. I would definitely return to have burger and fríes. ????
Hard to deny the fact that they offer up a killer burger that checks all of the boxes. Even though the place was filled with families around 4:00 on a Saturday, they don't offer any kid's options. $18 for a burger and fries for a 9 year old isn't exactly "reasonable."
The place has a warm vintage vibe coupled with a friendly staff. It's probably a better place to visit without kids just to grab a drink and a quick bite.
The burger is simple and delicious. It’s the amazing beef and fresh ingredients. Best onion rings I have ever had. Service is kind of slow but the place was busy. The atmosphere is kind of loud, but in a good way because you are sitting in a room full of happy people. A happy pub . Reminds me a bit of pubs I visited in the UK.
Quaint little restaurant in the heart of Mt. lookout. Seating is limited and is first come first serve. If you are lucky enough to find a seat you seat yourself. Atmosphere is historic woodwork original hardwood floors, doors, tables and booths. A train runs around the top of room on a platform with hand painted murals on wall of the surrounding town. ZIP burgers were delicious as well as the fries were crisp and golden brown. Chili was a delicious addition on top of the fries. A must try. Definitely will return again!
Time sure has passed. This place remains the same throughout the years but the prices, wow. Ala cart burgers, Cesar salads lite on the chicken…but service was good. Is it worth the price, no. Is it worth a visit as part of Cincinnati, that is a toss up. Throw some fries or chips on the plate. There are better choices. We only ended up here since the Sushi places were closed.
Zips is an iconic staple I've visited for the past 30 years void of fancy fixings, it's an honest made burger. The chili is so good with just a hint of sweet flavor, sour creme for the perfect add, jalapeno if it tickles you.
The burgers are awesome, with the double this day being exactly what I needed... Fries are the shoe string variety.
Add it to the list of must tries.
