Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Hyde Park

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.

It had been a while since I was last at Andy’s, but it was just as delicious as I remembered! I went during sn extremely busy night, but everything hummed along like a well oiled machine to keep up with the pace. The food was incredible, the ambiance was outstanding, and the staff extremely personable. Can’t wait to go back again!

Restaurant was busier than I have ever seen it. But the crowd on Valentine's Day was to be expected. Even though the restaurant was completely full, the servers did an excellent job to keep all customers satisfied. And our food arrived hot and prepared as expected. No complaints at all. We dined with another couple and they were just as satisifed with the experience as we were. Kudos to Fahri and the staff of Cafe Mediterranean for providing a great dining experience for Valentine's Day.

This place is adorable and the service is outstanding! They have great craft cocktails. I had the "Spice Up Your Life" and it was delicious. They also have a nice wine list. It's not extensive but a little bit of everything. I was there on a Wednesday and the bottles were half price for Wine Down Wednesday. I recommend trying the Arancini...very tasty. I also enjoyed some yummy deviled eggs. I can't wait to go back for the full dinner experience.
