    We had dinner at M&S before going to the theater. It was noted that we had the theater to attend, and our server,Anthony, was on top of it so we didn’t have to be concerned with timing. Anthony knew the menu and the bar / wines very well, and was able to explain and help with any questions. Service was great and the food was SO good. We have never been disappointed with our evening at M&S and this was no exception. We will be back again….

    Tonight was my wife and my first time dining at Jeff Ruby’s, and it was the greatest meal/experience that we’ve had. The live music was incredible for an entrance and throughout our meal. Angelica was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and an absolute joy. We were treated with a complimentary butter cake and it was divine. Thank you for allowing us to just celebrate life with you tonight.

    Overlooking the Ohio River and lights of Cincinnati set up a great dining experience. A party enjoyed a signature cocktail and dirty martini…both mixed to perfection. Crisp, bright green Caesar salad and thick clam chowder made for delicious starters. But the real stars of the meal were the prime rib and Cajun swordfish. Our waitress, Tara, was attentive and on top of every course. Kudos to the kitchen staff: timing was perfect and all food was served hot. We will be back!

    While having dinner at the precinct I was treated with the most outstanding service from my servers Lizzie & Anthony. Making sure I had everything I needed and never without water. I brought in a friend from out of town and each waiter had helped explain and recommend items from the menu. I ordered the Burrow which I have had before and once again was cooked to perfection. This is THE spot to go to for an outstanding steak dinner with unbeatable service.
