• Mediterranean • Cincinnati
Booked 10 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.

    We had amazing customer service from the waiter and the manager. There was a small issue with an entree and the staff went above what would be expected to resolve the concern. We will be back soon! Always a great experience.

    Aperture is a fantastic dining experience! My friend is a pescatarian, and the staff had a special menu ready, complete with thoughtful notes to accommodate their preferences. We trusted our server’s recommendations, selecting five different plates tailored to what we were in the mood for, and every dish was spot on. The food came out in perfect cadence, allowing us to enjoy each plate without feeling rushed or waiting too long. The service was attentive but not intrusive—just the right balance. It’s clear that the team here cares about creating an exceptional experience. I’d absolutely come back again!

    An amazing and wonderful experience for my entire family as we celebrated together for a first time in awhile. Our server was outstanding and was patient with our large group of 8 who had varying tastes (and allergies to accommodate.) She spent time going over the entire menu and made perfect recommendations in amounts to order and in highlighting shareable items too. The food arrived in a perfect flow and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Collette. 5 stars indeed!

    Always delicious, relaxing, accommodating with great service. Never disappointed. Menu is creative and seasonal. Love the pick three option and we always do that to get a broader sampling of the chefs creations. Last night we got into a real traffic mess and were quite late and they were so gracious when we finally showed up!
