Reliably great steaks and atmosphere. We were seated in a cool turret room, very private.
Everything about this place is PERFECT!
Cole provided some of the best service we have ever had in Cincinnati. The food was great, and they are very accommodating.
My wife and I came there for my birthday we had an amazing time, best steak we ever had and amazing service thank you
The food is always outstanding here and the service as well. Although the price is not cheap, it is worth it.
Loved the turet room on the third floor. In all my times of dining here I've never even eaten on the third floor. Excellent food and service as always.
Amazing food. Great atmosphere! We had a wonderful time.
Priscilla (I think that's how she spells it) was fantastic! Gave incredible recommendations and seamlessly took care of our party of 6; making adjustments for the pickier of the group. The food and drink quality was perfect, as always, and the tables were appropriately spaced apart during COVID-19 protocols. Thank you for a wonderful evening.
As always our dinner at the Precinct was outstanding.
It was a little chilly (we sat upstairs this time), but everything else was great!
It was wonderful for my birthday celebration with my family!
It was an exquisite dining experience. Because of the cost, unless you are "rich", we couldn't do it every week. But, for a special occasion, especially to impress your significant other to be, this is the place to go.
The server was very knowledgeable and detailed. The manager was on the floor and even refilled the water. Chef was great. The food we asked for well done was excellent and not burnt.
Music was really good that was playing in the background and not too loud. Food was excellent as always and service was great. A perfect Valentine's dinner!
Food & ambiance were excellent. Definitely recommend & will return.
The Precinct always the best. From crab cake appetizer, Freddie salads, great bottle of wine and our steak choices of a Filet and Chili rub ribeye. To finish off the night the great treat of cookies n cream ice cream. Always will recommend The Precinct to anyone who is looking for a great night out and we always enjoy sitting in the bar area.
We had a relaxing and wonderful Valentine’s Day dinner.
Always great food and great service!
Our experience at Jeff Ruby’s The Precinct was outstanding. From the warm greeting at the front door all the way through the desert and being thanked as we exited the building the visit was outstanding. Our head server was Chad and he and the team were great. All the food, service and experience was exceptional. The steaks were delicious and properly prepared.
Thank you for another outstanding performance at Jeff Ruby’s The Precinct.
One note, please consider bringing back the jelly beans. It would be a great marketing addition to the carry out options.
Never a bad experience!
Food is pricey but worth every penny. The food always tastes amazing and service is impeccable!
Awesome as always. Sad that Hoagie has left.
We celebrated my retirement here. Our waiter, David, the staff, and food was outstanding! The complimentary chocolate cake was a nice touch! An overall great experience!

Best food ever! Great service and atmosphere! This is our favorite place for special occasions!
We were celebrating our twins sweet 16 birthday. The Precinct made sure it was a special night. They had a personalized menu and a birthday dessert.
Everything was amazing as it is every time we go. Can’t wait to celebrate our anniversary there again next year.
Excellent!
Another amazing dining experience at the Precinct. It’s always one of our favorites! Gary waited on us and made sure everything was perfect. My Steak Collinsworth was prepared perfectly. Nothing compares to a Jeff Ruby steak and the mac n cheese is a must! Griff, the assistant manager, was very attentive and personable as we were celebrating our friend’s birthday. Everyone from the young ladies welcoming you, to the entire wait staff to the valet employees was friendly, personable, and professional to make our entire evening an amazing experience
Anthony and his support team were excellent and we had a great time!
Great service all around by the staff. It was an awesome experience having a private room to catch up with old friends and enjoy the best steaks in town. The Precinct and Jeff Ruby’s never disappoints.
We went there to celebrate my son’s birthday because we knew it would be consistently wonderful. And it was. We can always count on the precinct to deliver excellent service and fantastic food.
