I never get a pretentious feeling from being there -- quite the opposite. I have always found Geddes to be warm and have been impressed by his efforts to greet as many people in the dining room as possible. That being said, I read Julie's blog and respect her opinion a lot ... clearly we've just had different experiences here. We do agree on one thing though -- farm to table food isn't new to Cincinnati. The food at Local 127 may not be revolutionary in terms of local origin, but it's local nonetheless, and that's always a good thing. And every time I've been there, it has exceeded my expectations.

What do you think of this review and the description of the chef? Particularly this quote caught my eye (because it insinuates that the Relish Group brought him here, vs. your information that he chose Cincinnati for our location)-- The idea that “farm to table” cooking is new to Cincinnati, and that the Relish Group brought a chef in from Vegas to enlighten Cincinnati is laughable. http://winemedinemecincinnati.com/2009/09/review-local-127-first-impressions/ As I said, I haven't been to Local 127, but I am curious.
