    Angelica was an absolutely outstanding server. She recommended the steak and lobster, two of my friends got it and absolutely loved it. For desert i got the kiss from a rose and angelica made the presentation very special! She took extremely good care of us and i look forward to seeing her again! Words can’t describe how much we loved her, this was my first time at Jeff Ruby’s and i’m so excited to dine here again!

    If you want to enjoy a night of people watching, the best steaks in Cincinnati, and top-notch service, then Jeff Ruby’s Cincinnati is your place. Special shout outs to Alex for her fantastic wine recommendation, Larry for the “VIP” tour, and Charlie for his leadership. Charlie always elevates the experience just as he did at Carlo & Johnny for so many years. Thanks for making our special occasion another one to remember. Cheers!

    First of all dinner was awesome. Our servers were Tae and Anthony. Both were great but Tae was exceptional. I mentioned to a manager how I was so impressed with how Tae carried herself in the dining room. You all should be so thankful to have an employee that not only treats the customers with great care but also really shows that she respects where she works and cares about the little things she noticed that (must not have been correct or to JR standard) and quickly and discreetly makes the necessary adjustments. I only once knew what she fixed but saw multiple other staff pass by thanking her so I knew my observations were correct. I was really just in awe watching at first all of the wonderful staff and Tae just really surprised me that she was not part of your management team. She is definitely a asset to your team and I wanted to make certain that you all know that. M Dolen

    This may have been our best experience yet! Mike is a fantastic server. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and made some great recommendations for our wine selection, even leaving us a note with some wine options we can look for on our own. FANTASTIC job! Umit stopped by our table, always great to see him. Great guy! Saw Dominic is now serving as well. Awesome sauce! He stopped by our table and chatted with us for a while. Great kid! Brooke made some fantastic Old Fashioneds! *sorry for calling you "Pearl"

    Our server, Pedro, was amazing! He helped to make the experience even better than it usually is. We have been to Jeff Ruby's several times. Their food quality, service and ambiance are second to none. You are always treated like someone important. It is hard to get reservations and a bit pricey. But the food and the service are well worth it!

    We were celebrating our 46th Anniversary on 9/10/23. As we have dined at JR for the last few years. The new JR is very beautiful and elegant! The food was very good! We had a very late 8:30 pm reservation (only time available). We felt rushed and unfortunately not a relaxing experience. Our elevated table was comfortable but we were not unhappy with the non stop traffic of waiters and staff. I felt like we were watching a parade at a busy intersection. We asked for a quiet table when making our reservation but did not receive one. When spending $250 for a once a year special occasion , I would expect a more pleasant experience.
