A Cincinnati restaurant, The Aperture, has been recognized in The New York Times’ “America’s Best Restaurants 2024” list, highlighting it as one of the country’s favorite dining spots. Located in Walnut Hills, The Aperture is Ohio’s only representative on this prestigious list.
Described by The Times as a must-visit for live-fire cooking, the restaurant is helmed by chef-owner Jordan Anthony-Brown. The review praises signature dishes like glazed hamachi collar, roasted vegetable pita dips, and tomato spaghetti with candied chiles, showcasing the eatery’s strong Mediterranean influences.
The Times notes that 32 of the featured restaurants opened within the past year, with California leading the count at six establishments. While the list includes a variety of new dining experiences across 27 states and the District of Columbia, it does not rank the restaurants.
The Aperture’s menu emphasizes intention, balance, and focus, reflecting a blend of Mediterranean mezze-style dining with seasonal ingredients. Although walk-ins are welcome, reservations are encouraged for a more streamlined experience.
