Alfio's Buon Cibo

My wife and I made our first visit to Alfio's for our 35th Anniversary. We were not disappointed. Our server Coco made us feel right at home and provided excellent recommendations based on our menu questions. The lamb chops and pistachio crusted salmon were both outstanding. We will definitely return to work our way through the rest of the menu items.

Very nice atmosphere. Extremely comfortable chairs. Service was impeccable. Food was good. A few bites of the steak were grisly. Empenadas had a good flavor. Parking was a little hard to find so come a few minutes early. They told us Michigan was your best bet. They have some very interesting pasta dishes I would be interested in trying next time. Would recommend. In a very cute area.

The hostess was so pleasant and friendly. She seated my son and me in a cute alcove that was so comfortable! Our waitress, Coco, was incredible! She knew everything about the menu and brought the sommelier over when I asked about a "spicy " wine. He proceeded to bring 3 wines to taste!! How wonderful. I was completely overwhelmed with friendliness. I felt taken care of!! Then, Chef brought a freshly made app because mine was lost..and the sommelier brought a special gift as well. They really take care of their guests here. I will go back a million times! My entree was soon delicious!!

We have been going to Alfio’s for just over a year now, and we continue to believe this is the best restaurant in town. Everyone from the area needs to experience this place. From the unparalleled knowledge of the bartenders and sommes to the attention to detail of all of the wait staff, everything is just about damn perfect. Everything the kitchen makes is just fantastic, and everyone here seems to genuinely enjoy working at this restaurant. We recently had a dinner before our wedding with close friends and family, and the staff took care of us and made the night extremely special. Whether you are going to a big wine dinner or small bourbon dinner, or just ordering off the normal menu, you can’t go wrong. Do yourself a favor and give Alfio’s a try. The picture are from some of the meals we have had there over the past year. Don’t let the portion size fool you, most are from the 5 to 7 course dinners. As Alfio told us… “if you walk out of here hungry, my grandmother would slap me.”

The professionalism and attention to detail was so refreshing! The portions were perfect and perfect for ordering many things for the table to share. Yes the food and the reviews are as good as they say. The beet salad was the overall favorite, I contemplated getting another for us at the end if we kept chatting. They were incredibly gracious to my tired kids and if I know anyone visiting Cincinnati, I will surely recommend Alfio’s!
