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.

    This was our 3rd visit to Jeff Ruby’s Steakhouse; the first at the Precinct and these last 2 in downtown Cincinnati. Each time we leave loving the experience even more than the last. Our visit this week to the downtown Cincinnati location to celebrate my son’s 21st birthday was by far our best experience yet. Our party of five also included my mother for her first Jeff Ruby’s experience. Aside from the amazing food the delivers with every bite and the incredible atmosphere, it will always be the people that will make or break the experience. We were blessed to have had Umit as our server. He displayed the professional and elegant demeanor you’d expect but also the comfortable charm and witty humor of someone you’d call a friend. We felt that not a beat was missed as he anticipated our every need while leaving us with smiles and laughter throughout the entire evening.

    Jason and Brennan were on top of their game. Even though we had a traffic snafu, we alerted the staff to our delayed arrival and ensured them we could dine expeditiously. That was well received and our reservation was honored! Amazing experience!!!
