For Jeff Ruby, this is the steakhouse that started it all. In 1981, The Precinct was born in the former Cincinnati Police Patrol House Number 6.

This consistent, high level of quality and overall guest experience over 4 decades has endeared Precinct to celebrities, business people, families, and loyal diners alike.

    My wife and I really enjoyed this restaurant. Atmosphere was slightly different than others in a good way and the food was delightful. This is a new restaurant that is trying to capture that nostalgic diner feel with daily specials that reflect on yesterdays gone by also adding new dishes with great taste and lots of variety. Our waitress, Precious, made our first dining experience at Cap City ever that more enjoyable!

    We were celebrating our Wedding Anniversary when we dined. Our reservation was for 8:00 pm and they seated us on time which was appreciated. Staff was exceptional from the Bartender to the wait staff. Our food came out fast and hot! Our server suggested a couple items, and both were excellent choices (Polenta Egg & Speck and Custard with Cherry compote). We shared the Cacio e Pepe and Breaded Pork Loin for our meal. The creamy and richness of the Cacio helped balance out the citrus of the Pork loin. They also brought us complimentary Prosecco in celebration of our anniversary which was very thoughtful. For the quality of food/atmosphere/service the price is very good. I also liked that it was not "stuffy" like other "upper scale" restaurants tend to be. Very comfortable wearing nice jeans, nice shirt and shoes. We will definitely return...when we can get another reservation! Need to book WAY in advance!
