Valet was very rude, called me out in front of my family about a women. Claiming I was trying to get pussy in front of my sister. Austin was the valet
Went for my granddaughter's 16th birthday.
The chef made a special dish for my son in law who is a vegan. He loved it ! Service was great. Unfortunately my filet mignon was extremely salty and tough and my mashed potatoes had the consistency of applesauce, no texture at all. Very disappoin

The ambiance is not what I expected for a seemingly old school steak house. The vibes inside - like hanging out at Draculas. Dim, with red and pink lights all around, and I think I saw some stained glass pieces and large wall mirrors. Loved it. The

It pains me to write this as the Precinct has been my favorite Ruby restaurant since it opened. Have had many top notch meals (as to be expected) and celebrations here. We went on Friday of the river roots festival weekend. We had dinner with another
We had a family dinner at the Precinct.
Some family was in from the west coast. The service was impeccable. The food was delicious and well presented. The ambiance top notch! It was a wonderful dining experience from beginning to end.
AMAZING! The Precinct is amazing.
Our server Sue was on point! The food was awesome, just an excellent experience! I started with the oysters which were good. The steak was cooked to perfection and was perfectly seasoned. The Mac and cheese is to die for. Ended the meal with the

The Precinct in Cincinnati is, without question, the best steakhouse in the city--if not the entire country. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels special, blending old-school charm with first-class service. The steaks are consistently pe
Worth every penny!
Amazing atmosphere and one of the best steaks I have ever eaten. Old Fashions were great. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!
My husband took me here for my birthday dinner.
Not our first time here and we've eaten at the other Ruby steakhouses as well. I ordered the Australian Wagyu ribeye filet cooked medium. I have had Australian wagyu before and it is delicious and tender. This...not so much. First of all, I coul
First time visitor.
We were looking forward to a delicious steak meal on our anniversary but ended up disappointed. Perhaps the waiter had his hands full as the night was busy. My steak was overcooked, dry and too salty. For the price, we expected better food. The waite

Fine dining at its finest!
The Precinct has it all - atmosphere, history, great food and professional service. Every course of our meal was enjoyed by every member of our family. My only advice is to pace your self. The Precinct provides generous portion, especially the salad
Lovely BDAY dinner for hubby
Venue is very intimate. The ladies restroom felt like stepping back in time. Reservations were taken snd held! They even sat us a little early because we arrived 10 min early FYI $8.00 valet parking appeared to be only option, however, they we
We reserved too late.
We should have booked earlier for the dining area. The service level in the bar did not feel like fine dining which is understandable but I expected better service than what we received. It was also very loud in the bar. The food was great minus the

We were only in Cincinnati for one night, so naturally, I had one mission: find the best meal in town. The Precinct came up as the place, so our expectations were sky-high. And let me tell you--they did not come to play. First off, the building is a

One word: phenomenal.
This place totally lives up to the hype. The moment you walk in, you feel like you're somewhere special -- classy, old-school charm with just enough edge. We had the New York strip and it was absolutely perfect -- buttery, tender, and full of

Onah is 5 stars
Wonderful service, especially by Onah Montgomery!! He wasn’t even our server but picked up on what was wrong before anyone in our section did and immediately attempted to rectify the situation (food quality issue). Nonetheless, they made everything
Just Perfect
Classic Ruby's perfection from start to finish. Food, service, and atmosphere is awesome as always. If you want a great meal and impress someone, this is the place.
AMAZING “Ruby” experience
Had a most AMAZING “Ruby” experience last night celebrating my father’s 94th birthday. His favorite restaurant is The Precinct and we dined there many years while he was still mobile. He wanted his last birthday meal to be from The Precinct and

Precinct
We absolutely love Precinct. But it’s not just the food, it’s the people who work there. We love sitting at the bar because we get to experience Annie, who is the absolute best! And tonight we got to enjoy Shannon as well as Nicole also. We’re

Ate there for my birthday in April 3, 2024.
Service was adequate. Food with exception of dessert sub par. Salad was wilted and drenched with dressing. Steak was tough and potatoes tasted instant. Over priced. Ruby's you can do better. I have eaten there before and was very disappointed.
Overpriced everything and mediocre steak.
The steak is truly overrated. Jeff Ruby is now just a tradrmark name and he's banking on over the top decor and steak that is only so-so.

Service is always top notch and it's clear that Jordan manages a great team. Enjoyed the cowboy bone in ribeye, topped with scallops, Brussels sprouts and the It's Britney Spritz. Everything was wonderful and our server was exceptional. First time

This place is just amazing.
Food, service and ambiance is 12/10... The steaks might be the best in the country. I have been in other cities and people talk about the Precinct. I have actually heard people say.. Have you ever tried a Jeff Ruby's restaurant before. And tha

Precinct 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 frien
Fine 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 to

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Jeff Ruby's Precinct Dayton. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Jeff Ruby's Precinct Dayton at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Jeff Ruby's Precinct Dayton page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Jeff Ruby's Precinct Dayton to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Jeff Ruby's Precinct Dayton!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
