Jeff Ruby's Carlo & Johnny

This is quite possibly the best dining experience I've ever had. It truly is culinary entertainment and not a restaurant. Massive steaks, the best you'll ever have. Fresh seafood. Sides you can just eat by themselves. A+. Will return to another Jeff Ruby's whenever I am back home in Cincinnati. Who Dey!

Plan your reservation well in advance, always popular, well set, and worth its high charges. This is not a cheap date place, and they know it. One of the first questions is if it is anniversary or birthday. The mix of service with well made offerings, and the atmosphere, it’s good. If you are a chocolate connoisseur the “JR Cigar” is well worth it! Trust me!

We had a wonderful experience last week, hosting our micro-wedding participants at Carlo & Johnny for our post-wedding meal. Service was fantastic - attentive, timely, and expert on the menu and wine list. The food was outstanding, delighting those of us who have dined with you before, and amazing our first-timers. ("I've never had food like this" was declared spontaneously during the meal.) Thanks to Ashlee for coordinating in advance and making sure everything was just right upon our arrival.

What a pleasurable experience. Celebrated an anniversary in The Liquor Room. Appetizers were excellent, wagyu meatball, prawns, and sushi tasted great. No great detail, but you won’t be disappointed. Main course were prepared to everyone’s liking. I had the boneless ribeye. Perfect seasoning and cooked to medium rare. As far as sides go, all were good. I liked the brussel sprouts. The Mac and cheese (recommended by server) wasn’t a good. Waaaay too much cheese. Asparagus was tender and flavorful. Lastly the desserts were amazing. The dark chocolate cake and a scoop of vanilla ice cream was split between 4 of us. Amazing presentation on the Strawberry Fields! The butter pie, is a must! Mixed drinks were well balanced. I’d suggest their signature drinks. You can get margaritas and a rum and coke anywhere. Only reason I did no give 5 stars: 1: being a private room (even with an an assistant) I would have liked more attention to detail. ( drinks not being filled and not checking in after meal for a while) 2: finding shells in the topping for a steak (Burrow topping) Overall a very enjoyable experience. If you would like an upscale experience, this is definitely on the list.

The experience I had last night was incredible. Our server Mike was amazing. The service is second to none. The steak literally melts in your mouth. The ambiance is soo unique and special. It was the best dining experience both myself and my fiance have ever had. Simply amazing 👏 I hope Mike sees this review. He deserves recognition for how good he is at his job. And the way he and another waiter were roasting each other towards the end of our meal really made it fun. Seriously. If anyone out there is reading this and you don't know if you want to step out and commit to an expensive dinner. Just do it. It's worth it. Thanks Mike! See you next time
