Maury's Tiny Cove

If you live in Cincinnati and have never been to Maury's Tiny Cove, you're plain silly. It's an old supper club on the West side of town that specializes in cooking meat very very well. That's right. I said West side. . . you Eastsiders need to get over there, too. I come from mixed East/West parentage and thankfully dso. There's awesome stuff on both sides of the viaduct!.

My parents have taken us there a few times and here are a few of the finer points.


Amazing signage.


A bar that would make anyone from the Midwest comfortable--the usual low-ceilinged, dimly lit, all wood stretch that shows up in corner bars from St. Louis to Chicago.


Bread basket to start? No! A bowl of dill pickles!


Rare Roast Beef, potato fritters, horseradish sauce, steak sauce and a side of broccoli (which by the way, isn't always a specialty of steak houses. . . but it was cooked just right, bright green with a little chew left).

and sometimes, best of all,
Maury's makes your parents look like this. . .
