Customer Reviews
10/10 – Toussey House Tavern is pure magic! Stepped into this gorgeous historic gem and instantly felt transported. The atmosphere is everything: cozy fireplaces, beautiful antiques, and so much charm in every corner. It’s like dining in a perfectly preserved piece of history. The food? UNREAL. I had the crispy chicken thighs and I’m still dreaming about them – hands-down the best I’ve ever had anywhere. Perfectly seasoned, juicy inside, crispy outside… perfection. And those cinnamon muffins with cream cheese frosting? Melt-in-your-mouth heavenly. Everyone in our large group raved – zero complaints at the table! The sweet tea is dangerously good (sweet, strong, and refillable), and our server Soo was an absolute sweetheart – attentive, friendly, and made our whole afternoon even better.
Fantastic food and experience. Great bourbon selection and the bartender convinced me to try Blanton's Gold. We think Blanton's regular is mostly just hype and everyone's pavlovian response when they ask about bourbon but he went and found a bottle of gold for us and highly suggested it. It was fantastic and a perfect pairing with our meals.
Beautiful old house circa1822. So cozy and decorated all Christmasy. I’ve hosted private parties here, but tonight was an evening with a couple of friends. We started with a beer cheese appetizer. My husband had sea bass. I can’t order anything, but fried chicken when I come here. Their other dishes temp me, but their chicken is so perfect it’s what I always order. I had hot slaw for my side. The chicken comes with mashed potatoes The best part is that I have fried chicken for lunch tomorrow. This is one of my favorite restaurants in Northern Kentucky for its quality of food and the warm ambiance.
Loved the waffle, & potato spuds. Chicken was nicely breaded buy lacked seasoning. That will not keep me from not coming back. Plan on going back very soon. The services was excellent and I want to thank the entire staff super nice and attentive. The blueberry cobbler was amazing! I recommend going there over & over again.
Tousey House has always been one of my favorite restaurants. It is everything southern hospitality should be. You are greeted and welcomed into the door, the food (especially the fried chicken) has never disappointed... And the service has always been exceptional (dishes are swiftly moved from the table, waters are refilled at half empty mark without being asked... Food comes out piping hot and timely. We ate last night and the server Emmalee by far provided the best service we've ever experienced ever. She was prompt, knowledgeable, friendly and personable. My husband even asked about the coffee and she went out of her way to get us the name of it for us ( it's made local by the way and he raved about it- yet another reason we love Tousey house is it's a local business that also promotes
