#GCRWeek16: Prime47.
Tonight, we continued our Greater Cincinnati Restaurant by checking out Prime47 at the corner of Walnut and Sixth Streets downtown. We’ve walked by Prime47 a million times on our way here or there. But we’ve never stopped in. We always thought it would be wicked expensive. Restaurant Week was the perfect chance for us to finally check it out and see what we’ve been missing…
Come to find out that Prime47 has a really tasty-sounding Lounge Menu that seems pretty reasonable. We’ll have to give that a try some other time. Back to the business at hand, Prime47’s Greater Cincinnati Restaurant Week offerings. Three courses for $35 each.  Let’s get this dinner started…
We both started with the Caesar Salad and bread with oil…
I was going to get the 80z. Prmie NY Strip with twice baked potato. But they said they were all out of it. So we both ordered the 6oz. Petite Filet with shallots mashed, julienne vegetables with red wine demi…
Just look at that gorgeous piece of meat…
The steak was the perfect temperature, the demi was amazing, the julienne vegetables were a just little peppery and delicious, and mashed are always the perfect accompaniment for any great steak…
And I would put that steak right there in the running for one of the best steaks I’ve ever had. Unbelievably good. Just perfect. For dessert, Genifer ordered the Grippo’s pretzel covered brownie with vanilla ice cream…
Just, wow! I ordered the half-baked chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream…
I really don’t know which dessert was better. They were both so rich and decadent. We would go back just for the desserts alone. And we’re not even huge dessert people. But the best part was that we had a $50 gift certificate that FC Cincinnati sent along as an extra gift with our season tickets…
So it was very reasonable for such an incredible meal. Come to find out that the kicker is the exact meal we had tonight is part of Prime47’s Prime Seating Menu, available from 4-6 daily. So we could do this dinner all over again! And we’ll definitely be back to savor this amazing meal again. 🙂

#SaveTheDennison.
Could you imagine walking up Main Street and not seeing The Dennison Hotel? The view just wouldn’t be the same without this historic building…
The building’s owners are working to get Historic Conservation Board approval for the demolition of the historic Dennison Hotel.
From UrbanCincy, “Built in 1890, the Dennison Hotel is located within the Main Street Historic District and has sat vacant for several years. In the past, the eight-story brick structure had served as a single-occupancy room hotel in what was at that time a seedy part of the central business district.
Over the past several months historic preservationists have been organizing themselves in an effort to track the status of this historic structure as rumors have swirled that the owners were interested in demolition.”
It would be a real shame to lose a historic building that’s such an iconic part of the landscape of downtown Cincinnati. Well, at least it is for us. It’s been part of of view every time we looked out the windows…
Or walked out our front door…
And I would hate to loose a couple of my favorite ghost signs in all of Cincinnati…

Downtown details.
When we were walking Oscar this evening, we couldn’t help but notice that the tiara atop the Great American Tower at Queen City Square was glowing FC Cincinnati blue…
Tomorrow is FC Cincinnati’s inaugural home opener! And we couldn’t be more excited! 🙂
