Price: Very Expensive

• Mediterranean • Cincinnati

Booked 28 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.

My wife and I had a wonderful date night dining experience at Colette. The bartenders were friendly and got us taken care of while the table was being flipped over. We had a fantastic server, who walked us through the menu. The staff was always prompt in re-filling water/drinks. The food that we ordered was exquisite. Black Truffle on everything! Can’t wait to go back!

My wife and I went there for a date night and reserved the greenhouse room on the patio and were treated like kings and queens. We had the most kind server and the experience as well as the food was superb.

This place has become our favorite place for celebrating anything. Food is delicious and service is always great. Brewery beer on point. My husband loves the salad selection and I think the calamari is the best. Parking is also convenient since it's under the restaurant.

All of the food is unique and delicious. We enjoyed the hummus, sweet potato, and duck and kale pastas. But the highlight is the roasted carrots - the best ever. They have added acoustic tiles to the ceiling since we had last eaten there, and they have helped to muffle the noise in the space. A welcome improvement!
