For Jeff Ruby, this is the steakhouse that started it all. In 1981, The Precinct was born in the former Cincinnati Police Patrol House Number 6. This turn-of-the-century, Romanesque-style structure would hold what is now the longest, continuously running fine dining restaurant in the city.Recently named one of America's Top 10 Steakhouses by USA Today and Gayot.com, The Precinct is frequently recognized as having Cincinnati’s best steaks, seafood, and service. This consistent, high level of quality and overall guest experience over 4 decades has endeared Precinct to celebrities, business people, families, and loyal diners alike. The Precinct also offers a quaint outdoor patio area where guests may dine.

• Contemporary American • Cincinnati
Booked 27 times today
The Aperture, the first full-scale restaurant project from Chef Jordan Anthony-Brown. The menu reflects the concept of Mediterranean mezze style dining, consisting of many small plates, rustic in nature and reflective of seasonality and creates a natural progression and flow for the dining experience. The Aperture’s menu reflects three fundamental tenets: intention, balance, and focus. The menu - and its individual dishes - are approached with the objective of putting critical thought into every component, eliminating the extraneous, and ensuring a natural flow across the menu. The culinary program is heavily influenced by the cuisine of the broader Mediterranean region and the simple, seasonal cooking of Southern France, Italy, Greece, and the Levant.Our menu changes often and with the seasons. You can always find our current menu on our website www.theaperturecinci.com.

Booked 21 times today
Standing high above the city on the 10th floor of the City Club Apartments, at 309 Vine Street; resurrected from the history that has stood here before our time, Shires' Rooftop is inspired by the first amusement resort in this part of the country, Shires' Garden. Though the original Shires' Gardens burned to the ground, "in a most picturesque fire," the legacy that was left behind is everlasting and an integral part of the Queen City's history. The creation of the Matinee Performance, the regal guests Shires' hosted, an unsolved murder and other noteworthy events that took place at the original Shires' Gardens, are an inspiration to our program that we look forward to sharing with you.

    I celebrated my sons 21st birthday last night. I hoped everything was as good as I remembered it from my last visit several years ago and it was even better! From the moment we walked in the door and were greeted to the moment we sadly departed the experience was amazing! Our server, Abby, was amazing. She made us feel so welcome and special! She dd a great job going over the menu with us and making sure everything was just perfect. lWe started with the Wagyu meatball which was mouthwatering. For dinner we had the Cowboy Ribeye that was cooked perfectly and melted in your mouth with an amazing flavor. We also had the mac and cheese which was so rich and creamy and was just and explosion of flavor in your mouth. My son had a glass of Ruby's house whisky the he really enjoyed. We finished off with a butter pie that Abby recommended for a birthday dessert and it was the most delectable dish I have the pleasure or eating in years. Thank you everyone but most notably Abby, for making this such a fun and memorable night for us. I highly recommend visiting, you will have an amazing time and even better meal!

    My husband and I came to Boca for my birthday and had such an amazing time. Christina took incredible care of us, guided us through the menu, and made our dining experience one to remember. Honestly, the ENTIRE staff created an atmosphere that was approachable yet sophisticated, while delivering the most impeccable meal we have ever eaten. No snoot, all flavor. It was truly the most spectacular culinary experience my husband and I have ever had. They even had a BOCA onesie for my newborn son! Are you kidding me? No detail was forgotten! I love BOCA, we are certainly lifetime guests.

    My dining experience at this restaurant was truly exceptional. Without a doubt, it stands as the finest establishment in Cincinnati. The waitstaff exhibited a level of professionalism and attentiveness that made me feel special from the moment I stepped in. Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented, transforming an ordinary meal into an unforgettable culinary journey. Everything about the experience, from the ambiance to the exquisite service, was simply remarkable. Sean Kammerer

    Once again, Sotto was amazing in every way. We celebrated my wife's birthday. Grant, our server, was informative, helpful, easy to talk with and had some great stories about the restaurant. Best part was Grant set up our oldest son, who graduated from culinary school, to meet the chef and get a tour of the kitchen. Chef Woody was amazing to do that. Can't say enough good things about our night. Thank you Sotto!
