Prime Steak after Reds Win
Very nice place great staff. Restaurant in an old police precinct. Very extensive wine list and bourbon menu. Nice bar with high tables for eating.
Be the first to ReplyBlown Away...
Precinct by Jeff Ruby's is just special and I see why it's makes many lists of top steakhouses in the country. Staff is very well trained and the professionalism is top notch. Our food selections consisting of appetizers, dinners, and desserts were extraordinary. I attached pictures and definitely will recommend this business to others.
Be the first to ReplyPrecinct just average
A friendly waiter who knew when to check in and when to stay away. No lemon with the shrimp cocktail? My steak and my friends filet were barely edible due to the amount of salt they put on. Seriously, about 50% too much. Forgot that it was my friends birthday. Not what I'd expect from a "cincinnati's best" .
Be the first to ReplyFine dining yes! Atmosphere not so much!
As a repeat guest it was the first time, we were seated on the top floor aka hay loft as they called it. While enjoying each other's company my attention was caught as I watched a centipede speed up the wall behind my daughter and son in law. We told the one of our waiters and he wasn't sure what to do. He gave us the impression he was going to get a manager. We then see it again and at this point we can't stop starring at the wall wandering where it was. Instead of a manager approaching our table the head waiter comes over clueless of what just happened. He decided to move us to another table downstairs. We grab our things walk back downstairs and now are seated at a new table. Our main entree is then served. I understand there are things beyond our control. Of course, apologies were given and appreciated but I didn't leave feeling good about our dining experience and the birthday's we were there celebrating. The full bill arrived, he said he hoped we enjoyed everything. Not sure I will be rushing back anytime soon.

Great food and drinks. Just hated that people were standing directly behind us as we ate at the bar. Felt rushed by both the staff and other guests waiting to be sat. Came here to enjoy our evening and couldnโt relax at all.
Be the first to ReplyAlways a Great Experience
Have been to The Precinct many times. Always a great experience. Appreciated eating in one of the dining rooms as the bar is VERY Loud. Staff is very attentive and wants to make sure the meal is right.

The New York strip steaks were over cooked. Very disappointed! My grandson and daughter ordered filet. Both were over cooked and salty !
Be the first to ReplyTop Notch
I canโt remember the last time we had a dinner reservation at 8:45 PM, but we rolled into town on a Friday and 8:45 on Sunday was all that was available for the weekend. So we took it. We arrived about 8 PM to have drinks before dinner, and two seats had just opened . So we planted ourselves and had dinner at the bar, which we actually prefer and enjoy normally. We were not disappointed; the bar staff took care of us like VIPs. We split lobster bisque, a wedge, and a ribeye. We were full after the perfect bisce and salad, and coulda quit, but we pressed on. The steak was seasoned wonderfully, and cooked correctly, which ainโt always the case. All in all, a wonderful meal. It is clear how they earned all their rave reviews. And the bar staff are all rockstars.

5 out of 5. One of the best restaurant experiences i have had to date. Amazing food, Incredible staff, service with attention to detail. We were at Jeff Ruby Stakes in Kentucky and the waitstaff told us Jeff Rubyโs Precinct was a 15 minute ride away so went to check it outโฆ. Best decision of 2023 thus far. They even hooked us up with a private room upstairs to smoke cigars. You will not be disappointed

The Manager made the evening extra special. Everyone enjoyed their steaks, fish, and side. Our server Kayly was exceptional. The birthday cake show was enjoyable. Will be back.
Be the first to ReplyExcellent restaurant
This is really an excellent restaurant. We loved the setting but the food and service are what really make it great. We shared a nice bottle of Emmolo Merlot with our meal. They have a nice wine list. We both had the lobster bisque and this was great. I had the bowl and my wife a cup. We also had a nice salad which was part of their special. The special was a six ounce filet and a six ounce lobster tail served over mashed potatoes along with asparagus. This special, for just $65 was really fantastic. We didnโt really need it but we got a half order of the creamed spinach as well. The creamed spinach was outstanding. This restaurant deserves all the accolades. Go and try the Precinct.
Be the first to ReplyEverything was outstanding
We came for a friend's birthday and had a private room. I forgot my cell phone in my car that was valeted. A hostess that led us to our seats, immediately offered to go get it for me. Promptly returning with it. We started with a Bourbon tasting with a selection of 6. This was a self-guided tasting with each drink was properly marked. Great conversation regarding each Bourbon. Nice addition to our experience. Next came the seafood appetizer, in which an array of Oysters, Crab, and shrimp were served along with several different dips. Did I mention the fresh bread? Oh my.... trying to lay off the bread these days but could not resist. Very good! I had the Greek salad and Petite Filet for dinner. It was outstanding and perfectly cooked rare plus. Melted in my mouth. We all split several deserts, to include the Butter Pie (seriously weird sounding but so delicious!), Donuts, Carrot & Chocolate cake. Huge servings and very tasty. The service was outstanding! Waters always full, wine always served, dishes cleared promptly. Bravo! If you are looking for a special experience and can pay for what you get.... This is an amazing restaurant!
Be the first to ReplyGreat atmosphere, average steak
The atmosphere was awesome, The wait staff was amazing. We had a great time. However, my steak was pretty average, which for the price and reputation of the place was disappointing. It was a bit tough and dry, which was surprising. The sides did help make-up for some of that disappointment though. Mac & cheese, mushrooms and bridal sprouts were all fantastic. I would go back for the atmosphere, but would order either a different cut or something else.
Be the first to ReplyBest night ever!
Food and service was incredible. Myself and my family had a perfect evening. Everything was coursed great and tasted fantastic. Butter pie is a must try.
Be the first to ReplyVery good
Went last night @7:00 PM. Got seated promptly and were immediately attended to. Ordered drinks while we looked over the menu. Placed our orders and received them. There were three of us and we all ordered the petite filets. Two of us ordered mashed potatoes and one ordered a baked potato. When they brought the meal, everyone received mashed potatoes. The steaks were cooked as ordered. There was a group of about 12 people sitting behind us that seemed to get to the bulk of the attention as we were never asked if we wanted another drink. All in all, a nice experience but I don't get the hype of The Precinct

Was not impressed at all. My overpriced steak was undercooked and raw. Have had much better steaks and at a more reasonable price. Very unfortunate that I had heard so many good things about the place and instead was severely disappointed. If you can't cook a $95 steak medium rare, you shouldn't get to call yourself a steak house. Go to capitol grille, you get better food and better service.
Be the first to ReplyA true 5 star restaurant - - unbelievably good service, delicious food, and and wonderful ambience
Make reservations. This is a must try restaurant when visiting Cincinnati. Venue - old Police Station #6, really cool concept. Food Steak restaurant with seafood. Wonderful wonderful selection of Appetizers - - oysters rockefellers, others seafood, etc. Steak collinsworth was a tasty fillet with rub seasoning, asparagus and crab. Super tender and tasty. Salad both Greek and house were large and perfectly prepared. Dessert - baked alaska was pure delight. Wow it was so tasty. This is a truly remarkable restaurant with fantastic service. They have the black vest-servers, white vest-the waiter or waitress, and the black ninjas - managers. All are freely roaming the dining room attending to every need without request - - all seemingly unintrusive. Truly deliciius and very enjoyable.

What an incredible evening. Jordan and his team went above and beyond with both food and service. Canโt wait to return. The ambiance is second to no one in Cincinnati.
Be the first to ReplyLived up to the reputation.
Atmosphere reminded me of an old Chicago steakhouse with red leather half round booths and waitstaff in white dinner jackets. They are Known for their steaks and we give them a high mark. Side dishes are table size, wine list is extensive, plan on dropping $250-300 for a couple.
Be the first to ReplyFabulous graduation celebration
We had our son's UC graduation celebration at the Precinct, 4.30.2022 in the
Jeff Ruby Room. Some family members from out of town arrived early and the staff
made them feel more than comfortable upon their arrival and filled their drink selections. The food and attention to detail was excellent. The staff was friendly and detailed oriented. All 15 of us were impressed. It was above expectations. Thank you Ashlee for making his graduation celebration so special. His dessert was over the top!
Used to be the family go-to spot for celebrations.
Over the years we have had extraordinary meals from The Precinct. However, once COVID hit it seems to have fallen short. We went there a couple of years ago and ordered the pork belly appetizer, which was to die for... Could've have had that for an entree and been happy. However, my husband's steak was so rare it screamed when he cut it. He ordered medium rare, but good vet could have had it back on its feet in 15 minutes.
We went for our last anniversary in October, and ordered the appetizer again only to find it had changed dramatically... just a few strips of slightly glorified thick cut bacon! Again, my husband had to send back his undercooked steak. The baked potatoes used to be oversized, but mine was overbaked, and looked like it was from the day before and reheated.
We went again relatively recently for a family celebration, and again the pork belly app was changed with a different sauce. It wasn't too bad, but nothing compares to the first time I had it. And again with the smallish overcooked baked potato. I think I've learned.
One bright memory... Sue is the perfect server. If you still want to go, ask for her.
Since there are a few dates involved, I had to guess at the question below. We have been there for anniversary (couples), with family, and on business.
Know before you go
We have driven by the Precinct for years and always admired their flower boxes and heard they have delicious steaks. We reserved a table over a week in advance and the staff followed up with a phone call to confirm our reservation. When we arrived, they were busy, so we didn't mind waiting. What was shocking was that we taken to a very loud sports bar and seated at a booth set for 4 people-our reservation was for 2. We saw tables set for 2 in an adjoining dining room. We asked if this was a waiting area and the hostess said this was our table. If this was a restaurant that wasn't expecting a patron to spend $100+/pp, it would have been okay. We were totally perplexed as we made reservations. The atmosphere was extremely loud and disappointing and not what one expects at this price point. The saving grace was that the serving staff was friendly and attentive.
