Scotti's Italian Restaurant
A quaint family-run business in the heart of Cincinnati, Scotti's has been serving some of Cincinnati's finest Italian cuisine since 1911. Named after Italian opera legend Antonio Scotti, this beloved local eatery is currently owned and operated by the great-grandchildren of Salvator Scoleri who founded the restaurant in Philadelphia nearly a century ago. Traditional red and white checkered table cloths, melted wine bottle candles and opera music all come together to create an atmosphere that's truly special and authentic. Scotti's features a wide range of classic Italian recipes like spaghetti ala carbonara, baked meaty lasagna and veal scaloppini. Reservations are recommended on weekends.

Primavista
There is a lot more to this restaurant than the spectacular view of the Cincinatti skyline, though that alone is probably enough to recommend it. There is no better place to watch the sun set over downtown Cincinnati, the Ohio River and Northern Kentucky than at Primavista, which is also considered by many to be the city's number one Italian restaurant. As far as good date restaurants go, Primavista is in a class of its own. Diners enjoy tasty Italian fare like pesto farfalle, mushroom risotto and veal osso buco. Primavista is not the cheapest restaurant in Cincinatti (most entrees are around $28) but it is easily one of the best. An extensive variety of wines are available, many of which guests can purchase by the glass.
