   Very good and interesting food. I would certainly eat there again. They were able to accommodate my wife's vegetarian diet well. I had one small note that did not affect the food. The bar had multiple choices for Gins but they had no higher end traditional London Dry Gins. All except for one of their Gins were botanical style gins. If they could add a nice London Dry Gin such as Sipsmith that would make the visit above and beyond.

   One of the best meals we’ve had in a while!! Everything was perfection. The highlights were the carrots and lamb ribs.

   Our server, Ana, and the entire staff could not have provided better service. They were attentive without being intrusive. The food was an adventure. With Ana's instruction, we chose 4 items from the menu (one from each section). Starting with the mackerel and toast that was light and delicious. The cucumber and ricotta were new to the menu, an unusual take on cucumber as it was combined. We shared the lamb ribs that were juicy and cooked perfectly and campanelle with lobster and mussels. It had lobster chunks and whole mussels in a beautiful pasta blend. Lastly, we tried pavlova, a savory dessert with a pistachio butter glaze. The more was ate the better we liked it. All of the dishes were new to us, and we enjoyed them all. The decor was minimal, and the restaurant was a bit noisy. We will be going back.

   Terry, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a kind review. It truly means so much to our staff when they are called out by name. I have already shared your kind words with Ana! We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed every aspect of what we at The Aperture have to offer. We are always making effort to minimize the noise level as it is a historic building, but there are always room for improvements! Thank you again, we look forward to hosting you in the future. Warm Regards, -The Aperture Management Team

   Took our tech exec who cooks like a chef daughter visiting from New York, she gives Aperture high marks. Depth of flavor in every dish, high end service and superb food, like nothing else we have found in SW Ohio. A very worthwhile splurge. Definitely returning, well worth the drive from Centerville.

    From the moment we stepped through the door, we were captivated by the restaurant’s sleek, elegant ambiance—modern yet inviting, with every detail curated for a refined dining experience. The culinary creativity on display was truly impressive. Each dish was both inventive and impeccably executed, showcasing a mastery of flavor, presentation, and innovation. Our server elevated the evening even further. Attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic about the menu, they ensured every detail was flawless. It’s rare to find a combination of exceptional cuisine and top-tier service in such a stylish setting. Highly recommend.
