About this Neighborhood

Clifton keeps a comfortable, collegiate-adjacent feel, its 15 restaurants averaging a solid 4.1 and led by longtime favorite Ambar India Restaurant, the ever-present Skyline Chili, and Biagio's Bistro. Three coffee shops keep the mornings moving across a neighborhood with more than 3,700 reviews to its name. Foursquare check-ins give it a distinctive flavor — a zoo exhibit, churches, breakfast spots and gift shops turn up alongside the cafés. Four parks and a few groceries handle the green space and the essentials, sketching a settled Cincinnati corner with a touch of the unexpected.
