Best Romantic Restaurants in Dayton, Kentucky

Our annual Christmas dinner to Rubys was a great success as always. Truly a great night. The ambiance of the restaurant pairs so well with the holidays. Tony was our waiter as he has been for the last decade plus and does such a perfect job. Best waiter in town!!! Lupe his assistant was also great. Started out with oysters and two sushi rolls. All excellent. The oysters were really outstanding. For steaks Tony convinced me to try the Wagyu Ribeye gap. It’s not cheap, but it was one of the best steaks I have EVER had. Such an amazing flavor profile and great crust. Although it could have been a little more done to a true Med Rare. It was a great steak!!! Everyone’s else’s steak was made to perfection as we expect from Rubys. Finished with a slice of buttered pie. An outstanding meal and great Christmas tradition!!!

Ambiance, service and food is praise-worthy. Comfortable banquette seating is available, quieter, and offers grand views of a busy kitchen and lively dining room. Christine and Heather attended to our requests. Both engaging and knowledgeable, their pacing of our 5 course meal was perfection! Kudos to the kitchen, in that regard, as well! An order - or two - of Pommes Soufflées IS A MUST for every table. Truffle season delights. Chicken with truffled risotto was very good, but the gnocchi with shaved black truffle was the winner overall.

Excellent Service, Ms Erica our bartender makes THE best Smoked Old Fashion AND THE Best Espresso Martini 🍸 in town. The food is out of this world. Great Holiday Vibe I give Alfio’s a 6+ out of 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ And was named Top 100 Restaurants in Open Table Ciao Ciao Ciao

Ambiance was festive. Food was exceptional. Grace was attentive to our needs. Upstairs was nice but noted some guests were a bit loud.

First visit and we will be back. The steak was amazing. One of the best I have ever had.
