Meet us where the city shines brightest.

BLINK is here, and we’re in the center of it all at the heart of the Fountain Zone. Fountain Square will be glowing, buzzing, and full of things to discover. Come see the lights, explore the square and stop in for dinner, drinks, or a little time out of the glow.

Here’s to four nights of Cincinnati at its most luminous.

Say hello to our new Tuna Tartare. We’ve taken marinated yellowfin tuna and piled it high onto three crispy, tempura fried sushi rice cakes. It’s topped with pickled cucumbers, a bright lemon purée, and a kick of sriracha and scallion curls. The perfect crunch in every single bite.

Our new Halibut is steamed “En Papillote” with white w**e, citrus, and fresh herbs to keep it incredibly tender. We serve it over a warm couscous, topped with a crisp fennel and blood orange salad, and finish it with a tableside pour of tarragon oil and blood orange beurre blanc.

Enjoy with a glass of ‘s Rosabella on our patio. Cheers!

Meet the new centerpiece of your next date night: Our Steak for Two.

We’ve officially launched our new Steaks & Chops menu section, and this 24oz Prime Bone-In NY Strip is stealing the show. It comes presented beautifully at your table before being sliced by our chef, and it includes three housemade sauces (Bordelaise, Tarragon Chimichurri, and Béarnaise) plus your choice of two shareable sides.

Pair it with our new Chianti Classico Riserva, and you’ve got the ultimate Davidson dinner.
