Went to Sunday Brunch with live Jazz. Excellent experience. We had the best seat in the house! But of course, I think all seats would be good! The Fritata was really good. Their natural food and drink menu is a fine variety! I think you will enjoy!

Wait staff is very attentive and accommodating!

User
We had wonderful coffee and scones and great service

User
Very pretty, loved the old-school jazz on the sound system. I will definitely come back here again, presuming I can get lucky with parking again LOL.

User
Very nice place to enjoy some great music for a Saturday Night!

User
This place is phenomenal. Fantastic service, amazing food, and the best people you will ever meet.

User
The staff is always kind to my dog and I when we visit. They have the best brunch and cafe options.

User
The service is excellent! The food is phenomenal! I'm here right now for brunch and smooth jazz on Christmas eve. I had the wild lox biscuit which was to die for! I will be back.

User
My ten year old daughter and I came in today for the first time and fell in love!! The atmosphere style.. The vibe.. The incredible food.. (the peanut butter banana panini was divine and that balsamic salad dressing WOW!) The discounted books (might I add the incredibly diverse and intriguing selection) .. The friendly staff.. The energy.. The pretty floral table we sat at.. Everything was perfect!! We look forward to a new Saturday ritual. Thanks for the fabulous experience.. We'll see you soon!

User
My friend Kim found this amazing gem online (we travel for a living & have never been to Cincinnati). We were completely blown away. Its in the Clifton Gaslight Business District which is filled with all sorts of funky shops and restaurants and beautiful architecture. The food was impeccable! We both ordered the "Figgy Piggy" Panini and it was absolutely divine. The atmosphere was so neat and artistic. We just wanted to stay and soak it up all day. It offers a great menu for Vegan eaters as well. We highly recommend it & if we are ever in town again we'll most definitely go back.

User
My favorite place for Sunday brunch. The service, food and music are great. Many healthy options, include many vegetarian entrees too.

User
It was awesome! Food, service, music! Wonderful!

User
I love going to Lydias when I need a dirty chi, and am so thankful for vegan options wither it is a muffin or an ancient grain bowl <3 I love the people there, music and vibes.

User
Heard some great jazz last night with PB and J! Loved the house vodka.

Had a nice evening at Lydia's with 2 friends who also love jazz. We'll be back!

User
Great environment. Nice workers. Smells amazing. And smells are free so I’d recommend at least checking it out!

User
Best open mic in town on Thursday night. Great talent and variety. Plan on going every Thursday night I’m in town.

User
Always impressed by the amazing food and staff at Lydias. I had the best Mediterranean Plate with fresh veggies, goat cheese, warm soft pita bread and the best hummus I have had. We also had a Turkey Wrap with fresh delicious fruit and wonderful salad. The attention to detail is very refreshing, and as a vegetarian there are lots of options. We also splurged on the BEST brownie ever!!!!!! Our server Autumn was very knowledgeable of the unique ingredients in the daily specials, soups and drinks. She is an amazing waitress. The soft jazz saxophone playing is also a nice touch. If only we had places like this on the east side of town where I live, worth every second of the drive. Thank You for an always amazing experience.

User
Always delicious, wonderful staff, great place to meet and greet, fun events and talented musicians.

User
A great time was had today for Easter. The brunch was fantastic and the Ron Enyard Quartet was so good! Great place for Sunday Jazz Brunch! A great open and friendly place in the neighborhood! My wife and I really enjoyed it. Ron Enyard even came over to our table and chatted about Jazz, he is a class act and a Cincinnati Jazz Treasure!!

User
Walking into Lydia's is like "coming home". It's warm, friendly, and has such good energy. Great drinks and food options.

User
Worst omelet I ever had. Not sure how one makes an egg look, and feel like rubber. Fruit and coffee were good though, but no refills. We didn’t even see our waitress again until we got up to leave. She rung us up on a tablet, then turned it to me to complete the transaction and just walked away. The funny part was, it wasn’t even busy, so I have no idea why the service was so poor.
