The first & only steakhouse of its kind in the Louisville area, Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse serves only dry-aged USDA prime beef. While steak is the foundation of the menu, Jeff Ruby's promises to please seafood lovers as well with its raw/sushi bar & seafood entrees.
Jeff Ruby regulars will be pleased to know that their favorite signature items from the Cincinnati restaurants will be well represented in Louisville. The bone-in filet, the 7 cheese baked macaroni, creamed spinach, truffle flake, & of course Jeff Ruby's secret recipe cheesecake are all staples of the Louisville menu.
Styled after the great NY steakhouses of the 1930s & '40s, Jeff Ruby's promises to be as pleasing visually as it is to the palate. French art-deco design, plush mohair upholstery, hand-selected antique furniture, and cinematic crystal chandeliers anchored by a 1950s-era antique are featured in the Starz series Magic City and the 32-foot wall of wine.

Darrell and Luke did their very best to make sure we always had everything we needed! My salad and sushi(and as always the bread!) were great! Unfortunately my mother ordered the salmon and brussel sprouts and wasn’t super satisfied with the flavor. Other than that everything was great!

Every aspect of the evening was exceptional, beginning with the warm and elegant ambiance that set the tone for a truly special celebration. The meal itself was nothing short of perfection. Each dish, from the salad to dessert, was crafted with impeccable attention to detail. My steak was cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful, while the sides were equally outstanding—every bite felt like a celebration in its own right. The dessert, which capped off the evening, was a masterpiece, both in taste and presentation. A huge shoutout to our server, Darrell, who was the epitome of professionalism and charm. His suggestions were spot on and added so much to our dining experience. From wine pairings to menu recommendations, he guided us with confidence and enthusiasm, ensuring that every choice we made was a winner. His warmth and attentiveness made us feel truly valued, turning an already great evening into something extraordinary.

I made a reservation for my parents to celebrate my mom’s birthday this past Saturday. He gave them service they have never had before & exceeded their expectations with hospitality in creating a memorable experience. They are extremely excited to come back next month to celebrate Valentine’s Day. If you ever think of visiting Jeff Ruby's Louisville, ask for Daryl!!

Service for dinner was good but bartenders at bar were frustrating. We eat in Cincy quite a bit and they are nowhere close to the same level. Took us 20mins to get a cocktail. Mr Ruby, Louisville needs your Cincinnati touch and attention.
