The Lempicka provides a luxurious backdrop for weddings, corporate and social events, fundraisers and other celebrations for groups from 25-250 people. Buffet options start at $60 per person and plated menu options start at $95 per person.

Ruby has long admired the work of de Lempicka, who is often mentioned in the same sentence as Georgia O’Keefe, Frida Kahlo and Louise Bourgeois and is considered one of the most famous female artists of our time. He has drawn inspiration from the artist in the signature murals that adorn each of his steakhouses. At the grand opening, Ruby introduced his great granddaughter, Marisa de Lempicka, who shared stories about her great grandmother who was nicknamed “The Baroness with a Brush.”

This week, The Lempicka by Jeff Ruby opened on Walnut Street across from the Aronoff Center for the Performing Arts. The new event venue will offer a culinary experience with chef-driven menus from breakfast, brunch along with plated and buffet dinners. Buffet options start at $60 per person and plated menu options start at $95 per person.

“The Lempicka is going to stand out because of the quality ingredients that will be used, the way those ingredients are prepared, respected, and the passion of the culinary staff,” said Executive Chef Luke Anzano. “There is nowhere in Cincinnati that offers our scale of fine dining plated meals for large events.”
