Best Seasonal Restaurants in Clifton

REALLY like any of the Ruby’s restaurants around Cincinnati to celebrate special occasions. This was our first time at the new location on 5th & Vine. All the 1920’s ambiance you expect from one of his locations and the excellent food & service made for a great experience. Our one complaint was that it was very noisy - much more so than the other locations. We sat in the big open room but will look into how to book a table in one of the smaller rooms like The Gatsby as it might be quieter in there. Otherwise, GREAT!

I always look forward to dining at Boca, the food is always delicious and the service is seamless. If you're an oyster fan you should definitely try theirs-you won't find any better. I'm a real fan of their chicken dish -with risotto and carrot. I keep coming back to ordering it because it's perfect! If you're uncertain what wine to choose with your dinner-let the staff help with a good pairing-I enjoyed what our server suggested and it's a good way to try something new. Boca is a real gem of a restaurant and Cincinnati is lucky to have it.

Celebrated Christmas Eve with my family. The atmosphere was lively and enjoyable. Our server Alec was friendly and did an excellent job. The food was excellent as it always is at the Precinct. I had the boneless ribeye, my wife a filet with bearnaise sauce, and my daughters had the salmon. Everyone was happy with their choices and we had a wonderful evening. Looking forward to the next time we have an opportunity to go to a Jeff Ruby restaurant.

The menu features a variety of cuisine and a reasonable price for the quality. It is easy to get a heart healthy meal, low calaories and tasty. Service is attentive, knowledgeable, polite and professional. The ambiance is a comfotable feel and the clientele is respectful of other guests. It is simply an overall wonderful expereince.

My husband and I enjoyed a fabulous pre-Christmas date night at The Aperature. I have been wanting to dine here since they opened but hadn’t yet been able to make it in. Our food was fabulous and our server, Sam, was perfectly friendly and attentive. In fact the entire staff was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed sharing the small plates. We had the garlic & eggplant hummus, the sweet potato with feta, the kale pesto spaghetti, and the ribeye. Literally every single bite was delicious. We split the toffee pudding for dessert. We felt the food quality was as good or better than another local small plates restaurant we visited this time last year and The Aperature bill was HALF of what it was at the other place.
