“Delicioso postre todo riquísimo y la atención de primera calidad“

“Everything was delicious and we will definitely come again“

“A little tricky to spot, it is the entrance under the pink neon symbols. The restaurant serves tapas to share so I would recommend bringing a friend, or friends, and ordering multiple items. Every dish I've had there has been absolutely delicious! My favorites are the charred broccoli with cheese sauce, and the whipped honey ricotta with grilled bread. They also have lots of great vegetarian options!“

“Fabulous food and wonderful service. Fahri is so good at food and wine pairings. We love the experience at Cafe Mediterranean.“

“If you have not come here to try the grilled chicken burger or the lamb gyro, you are seriously missing out! The chicken for the burger is seasoned perfectly and is very juicy! You can’t go wrong with a good lamb gyro either. Don’t forget to order the Masala fries and the hummus!“

“A hidden gem on Garfield Place . We decided to throw out the Hyde park restaurants and try something new . The Mezze Board was fantastic with all of the Mediterranean dips and veggies , The Shrimp Cossoult is to die for . The braised lamb /risotta/feta explodes with every bite. The best of all is that it was our first time dining and and I felt like family with the service from Nimo and Bryce , Coming back next week for the Swordfish . 6 stars !!!!!“

“Great food and perfect service“

“This is a modern looking restaurant with open tables but you can't get a reservation for weeks? Our server was very nice and attentive. The food was good but not great and small portions. The best thing we had was the pita and eggplant dip.“

“With opening of The Plove, Cincinnati now has 3 options for Uzbek cuisine, which is honestly kind of bonkers. The Plove also have a Turkish menu as well to differentiate them from the competition.

I tried the basics, just the traditional plov and samsa. The plov was decent, though unlike alot of the review pictures posted in the past, it didn't come with the sausage, which was disappointing. The beef portion though was generous and were tender and flavorful. The samsa was different than what I was used to, it wasn't bad per se but I prefer my samsa with a pastry like dough instead of a simple wrap dough as is the case here.

I'll be back to try some of the soup and the Turkish menu at some point, but for purely Uzbek cuisine, Chaykhana N1 over in Pisgah is still the much better choice.

One other thing to mention is that the front of the entrance and the lobby has a very strong cigarette smell, it actually kind of reeked. Management should make sure the staff do not smoke in the lobby or in front of the store. Also, there were no signs denoting if the place is open or not, so you basically just need to hope the hours posted on Google is accurate.“

“They have the best doner (gyro) in the US. Also, taste of the other options pulls you to restaurant even from long distance.“
