• Mediterranean • Cincinnati
Booked 9 times today
The Aperture, the first full-scale restaurant project from Chef Jordan Anthony-Brown. The menu reflects the concept of Mediterranean mezze style dining, consisting of many small plates, rustic in nature and reflective of seasonality and creates a natural progression and flow for the dining experience. The Aperture’s menu reflects three fundamental tenets: intention, balance, and focus. The menu - and its individual dishes - are approached with the objective of putting critical thought into every component, eliminating the extraneous, and ensuring a natural flow across the menu. The culinary program is heavily influenced by the cuisine of the broader Mediterranean region and the simple, seasonal cooking of Southern France, Italy, Greece, and the Levant.Our menu changes often and with the seasons. You can always find our current menu on our website www.theaperturecinci.com.

Standing high above the city on the 10th floor of the City Club Apartments, at 309 Vine Street; resurrected from the history that has stood here before our time, Shires' Rooftop is inspired by the first amusement resort in this part of the country, Shires' Garden. Though the original Shires' Gardens burned to the ground, "in a most picturesque fire," the legacy that was left behind is everlasting and an integral part of the Queen City's history. The creation of the Matinee Performance, the regal guests Shires' hosted, an unsolved murder and other noteworthy events that took place at the original Shires' Gardens, are an inspiration to our program that we look forward to sharing with you.

    My husband and I enjoyed a fabulous pre-Christmas date night at The Aperature. I have been wanting to dine here since they opened but hadn’t yet been able to make it in. Our food was fabulous and our server, Sam, was perfectly friendly and attentive. In fact the entire staff was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed sharing the small plates. We had the garlic & eggplant hummus, the sweet potato with feta, the kale pesto spaghetti, and the ribeye. Literally every single bite was delicious. We split the toffee pudding for dessert. We felt the food quality was as good or better than another local small plates restaurant we visited this time last year and The Aperature bill was HALF of what it was at the other place.

    We sat upstairs and the service was excellent. The food was delicious-especially the ricotta dip appetizer and the midnighter sandwich. They have igloos set up on the roof and a roaring firepit-perfect for the holiday season.

    I got very very lucky and got a last minute reservation for a date in the Den! Every staff member we came in contact with was sweet and seemed to be having fun :) Would absolutely recommend for anyone looking to have a unique and colorful night out. Drink options were plentiful, and I absolutely adored the #4 sour inspired cocktail

    Dined on Dec 16, 2024
    We went to lunch to celebrate my wife’s birthday and were immediately impressed by our server, Chrissy, and her knowledge of the menu and wine pairings. The ambiance was intimate and soft at the beginning, but between the house music and the increasing number of patrons, it became quite loud. Still, the food and attention to detail were the stars of the show. The eggplant parmigiana, tagliatelle al prosciutto, and the Italian Stallion cocktail were among the best of the afternoon. To finish, a complimentary donut served with a delicate salted caramel sauce brought the birthday celebration to a special level. We highly recommend and we will return for another great experience!
