Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Evendale

Enjoyable experience. Loved the lamb entree. Persephone cocktail beautiful and delicious. Tasty appetizers and desserts. Service was pleasant and appropriate.

Wow!! Aperture is yet another example of why Cincinnati is truly a foodie city. Very impressed with every not-so-little-detail Chef Jordan Anthony Brown put into this restaurant. The space is modern, yet intimate; the lighting is a perfect balance of mood and softness; even with a completely full restaurant, it was never loud; sitting next to the windows on a cold, rainy night, we never felt any temperature difference; the service from everyone was equally excellent, professional, friendly and attentive. Now, for the food. First, watching the chefs in the open kitchen was entertainment in itself. I could have watched this intimate look into the passion and precision of the preparing, creating, and plating each individual dish all night. Every dish we ordered was uniquely different in its presentation and flavor: simple, yet fresh, curious and delicious with combinations I have not previously encountered. The Fennel sausage pasta was perfect in its sauce distribution, flavor and al dente texture. The Stripped Bass delivered a flaky, crisp fish in an emulsion of light chowder-like sauce-Unexpectedly amazing. The simple fire-heated pita with the eggplant hummus was no less impressive. Thank you Chef Jordan Anthony Brown, and the people that work along side you to remind us how decadent and fun eating can be when made with love and dedication.

My husband and I ordered the mixed grilled kebabs for two. The meat was perfectly seasoned. My sister had the chicken curry. Delicious! My brother-in-law loved his usual order, salmon. We tried the pistachio baklava and the almond pudding for dessert. Yummy! Portions are generous. Glad we had a reservation as the restaurant at capacity. Definitely going back.

We sat at the bar on a Saturday night and had a lovely meal. Our server was busy but friendly and took good care of us. The food was delicious, especially the sampler appetizer platter for two. It is a lively restaurant but the noise level was never a problem and everyone was in a celebratory mood. I am looking forward to going back to this restaurant.

Great food… great people…very diverse delicious food….
