We had reservations for 6:30pm on Saturday night. We were a little early, but they were able to seat us right away. The atmosphere is dark and rich, and the seating is very comfortable. All tables have the cutest box-light centerpieces, all with fresh flowers, that added to the ambiance. Our server, Kayla, was smiley and fun! She explained all we needed to know about the nightly specials. She knew the menu well. There were also lovely food runners and other staff that kept our night going smoothly. This is what we had for dinner and our thoughts: Mussels - The PEI mussels were so plump and cooked perfectly. We sopped up all the broth we could with the charred bread pieces. I wanted to pick up the bowl and drink the rest. We order mussels at most places that offer them, and these were the best we have had in Cincinnati. Croquetas - These were interesting. The flavors were good, but we thought the consistency was a little pasty. It was like all the ingredients were blended up together in a, well, paste. Pasta Duo - We chose the Wild Mushroom in vodka sauce, and the Gnocchi Bolognese. We thought the vodka sauce overwhelmed the mushroom in the ravioli and that maybe a lighter sauce would complement the mushroom filling better. However, the sauce was excellent. The gnocchi were pillowy and tasty with the sauce, but there was not much beef in the bolognese. Although these weren't the favorites of the night, they were still very good. Skirt Steak with Chimichurri - OMG! I don't usually order steak out, but serving skirt is rare and it is one of my favorite cuts. It was so tender with a fabulous grill flavor and the most delicious chimichurri. Except for about four bites my wife enjoyed, I ate the whole 10oz steak!! It is pricy, but I would gladly spend the money for this excellent preparation again. The potatoes were roasted and seasoned well, but I wish there were more than five pieces of asparagus for the price. Chocolate Caramel Tiramisu - Very light and chocolatey. Yum! We will be back over and over for the mussels and skirt steak. read more

Alfio's is quickly becoming a new favorite! I want to start off by saying our waitress, Ally was so sweet and friendly.! She made me a surprise mocktail, which I loved. She did a great job the entire evening. Same for the manager, he stops by and checks on things and we really appreciate that. Now to our dinner: Incredible!! We weren't sure everything sounded good on the tasting menu, but we decided we were gonna give it a whirl anyway. Every single dish was delicious. The blend of flavors and textures was absolutely perfect. They really know what they're doing. One of those items we weren't sure about was the Croqueta, but it was delicious. The second was the beet salad, and oh my gosh, it was perfect. The pistachios, with the beets peaches, arugula, and the sauce, all paired so well. Then they brought out the poached lobster and we didn't want anything but poached lobster after that. We did not think they could top that. But then came the pasta and wow! I just can't go on enough about how great each dish was. I included a picture of the tasting this week just so you can see. Can't wait to try another one next time. Alfio's Buon Cibo is fantastico! read more

My husband and I came here for dinner and absolutely loved the ambiance and relaxed pace, you're never rushed. We started with the empanadas and devoured them immediately. They come with three different sauces, all delicious. For our mains, I had the veal and short rib ravioli (so good, but very rich), and my husband had the short rib with gnocchi. Both portions were generous, and his short rib was incredibly tender. There is bread service, but it comes out with the meal; the butter was amazing, though I wish the bread itself matched the rest of the food in terms of quality. Every staff member we interacted with was warm and attentive, checking on us multiple times. Plan to be here for about two hours, as they truly let you enjoy your meal at your own pace. Overall, a great dining experience! read more

Top 3 favorite restaurants I've ever been to. The people that worked there were all so nice and our server made us feel so special. She explained the whole menu, made great recommendations about the menu and what drinks paired well with what we ordered. We started with the empanadas and those were fantastic. The sauces that came with them were great also. I ordered the braised short ribs with gnocchi, again one of the best things I've tasted. He got the duck and that was very good as well. It was our "pre wedding anniversary" so we got a complimentary little Bundt cake and that was good. I will be bragging on this place for a long time. We will be back! read more

Lenoir was our amazing server. So sweet and had great recommendations. The ambiance is very romantic. Dark and candle-lit. The bartenders were awesome and made my partner a mocktail on the spot that complimented his skirt steak meal! The empanadas were delicious and one of our favorite parts of the meal, especially the Korean bbq. The skirt steak was cooked well and the wedge fries were crispy and buttery. Very thick cut but still good. The chimi churri was light but nice. Ordered two pastas: 1. The agnolitti was good. A smoked flavor with the sauce and squash and the short rib was perfect. 2. The veal short rib was ok. The sauce was delicious but the meat was a bit tough and not my favorite. The caramel tiramisu was good but more like a chocolate cake than tiramisu. I am a classic tiramisu gal so I would not order this again. Overall it was a great experience. This was our second time here, but the first was a NYE menu - which was also delicious. We will be returning for sure! read more

Highly recommend this restaurant. The first thing that stood out was the kindness of the staff- they are all super friendly and great conversationalists. It's a very quaint spot in a super nice area and the interior is intimate and comfortable. The food was OUTSTANDING. We got the tasting menu on 4/21 and were blown away by every single dish. We left happy and full but not feeling overstuffed by any means. An excellent place to celebrate a special occasion! read more

Really cute spot in Hyde Park! Shared the scallops which have an INCREDIBLE sauce/topping. I got the signature duo pasta (one ravioli, one gnocchi) and it was rich enough for leftovers (in a good way!) I liked the ravioli better but the smokey gnocchi was also very yummy. Our waitress was very enthusiastic about the menu and knowledgeable which helped us make our decisions but with a menu like Alfios it's seems difficult to make a wrong pick! read more

One of my favorite dining experiences year to date. We started out with some cocktails at the bar with a very friend bartender. Drinks were made very well. Dinner kicked off with some different empanadas with one of them being wild boar. All yummy. We also had the mussels. They were fantastic. As for dinner, I had the special of the day which was a Chilean sea bass over risotto. One of most flavorful dishes over risotto I ever had. It was great. Wine selection was good too. The on-site sommelier was great. She recommended some good wine. Overall staff was awesome we especially Cam. Highly recommend. read more

From start to finish this was a fantastic dinner and experience. 4 of us, we all had something different and every dish was amazing. Lots of places have very good food in Cincinnati but the real standout was the service; attentive, friendly and efficient. Multiple people stopped by the table but you never got the feeling you were being rushed. Ambiance is lively but not overly loud. I loved that the tables weren't too close to one another and the chairs comfortable! We'll be back soon! read more

Great Food and great service! Pasta choose two was very good. We got the 4 cheese and short rib one. My lamb chops were cooked perfectly. My son's short ribs were excellent. My wife got a seafood dish and liked it. The dessert was great and my son got one for his birthday. My wife and I shared a salad and it hit the spot. read more

I was visiting friends in Cincinnati on a Friday night and dinner plans was a last minute thought. Alfio's buon chibo just happened to have an opening for 815 on OpenTable and Italian/Argentinian sounded fantastic to all of us and Hyde Park Square was only a 15 min drive away! Also, after previewing the menu, the chimichurri made me tap "Book Now". The restaurant was loud, in a good way, like a big family party (not like a party full of obnoxious hipsters-I was recently in a very loud restaurant, in a bad way, in Hyde Park/Tampa, Florida). Alfio's was warm and inviting, the red colored walls, dim lighting and everyone felt local. There was a bar and the restaurant space was like a rectangle, extending toward the back. We were seated in the back near a corner of wine bottles. My 2 eating partners were local and it was their first time dining in. But they had sampled their tasty empanadas at a Taste of Cincinnati festival, which made them add Alfio's to their list of restaurants to try. The hostess was lovely, and we had Alli? as our waitress & a sommelier who helped us pick wines. We tried one of the Argentinian wines not on the menu, a Trapiche Malbec. And a Barbarossa. Our waitress was the best - so friendly, took the time to explain all the dishes, never felt rushed and had a beautiful sincere smile. I felt she really enjoyed working there. There was a tasting menu (which had lamb and duck-my partners were trying to observe no meat Fridays, which failed in the end), a Specials Menu, and a booklet for the wine list. We started with the Empanadas Quatro, Funghetti, and 2 appetizers from the Specials Menu-lobster deviled eggs and lamb arancinis (4 pieces). We tried to cut the empanadas in threes, for us all to sample (we should have gotten a 2nd order); I was able to try the spiced beef or korean bbq? And it was tasty! My partners loved the spinach/cheese and corn? The Funghetti has no mushrooms (which was why I wanted to try it) but its name comes from the mushroom cap shaped pasta! It was still delicious- bits of butternut squash, sausage?, chimichurri sauce. It was my fav app. The deviled eggs were good, nothing special. Lamb arancinis were served hot and crispy with a white sauce smear - each ball a perfect 2-3 biter. We shared the flame grilled halved romaine Caesar-delicious dressing with big chunks of shaved parmesan (oh and crunchy tasty croutons!) My partners got the Choose Two pastas. Agnolotti (very rich/heavy w/ the gouda and short rib) & mushroom ravioli (wonderful). Gnocchi (definitely tasted smoky) & i don't remember his 2nd pick. I was torn between the skirt steak (the chimichurri was sparking my curious tastebuds) and the Halibut from the Specials Menu (which they say rotates often). I went with the skirt steak and it was my favorite dish of all. It was recommended to be served "medium". It was served on top of grilled Asparagus and large Yukon steak fries. My 2 dining partners sampled the steak and both loved it too. The generous amount of chimichurri sauce drizzled on top of the steak = perfection. We took the potatoes home for a future air fry snack bc they were delicious too! It was my belated bday dinner and our waitress gifted us a carrot cake with goat cheese frosting- little bundt shape and moist. Perfect for sharing. But we also tried the limoncello creme brulee which was a nice palate cleanser, not too heavy/light, creamy & lemony. Looking forward to coming back and trying the tasting menu and basically everything else! And I cannot compliment the service staff enough - incredibly attentive, sincere and friendly. read more

Had a lovely dinner here on a weekday night. The tables were spaced well to allow for intimate conversations. The decor was chic, and the servers and front-of-the-house staff were very friendly. Started dinner with their infamous Empanada Cuarto, which included one each: spiced beef, Korean bbq, spinach & cheese, and chicken carnitas elote. While I loved them all, the last one was my favorite. These were followed by a Poached Pear and Fig salad with honey truffle vinaigrette, which was very large and very tasty. Our table chose two pastas to share, which came in a unique yoked serving platter: Angus & Five cheese and Veal Short Rib. The latter was made with creamy white truffle sauce. My entree was the Seafood a la Goat Cheese Pesto, which was tasty but a rather strange name as it was simply 3 scallops on a mound of pesto pasta. It was good but on the salty side, so if you need to watch your intake of salt, I would pass on this one. In reviewing the name of this entree on their menu, I see that it should have included Alaskan lump crab meat, which it did not. Wish I had noticed that when dining..... Had the Tiramisu for dessert which was a refreshing way to end the night. 5 stars for food and dining experience, but removing one star for the missing crab meat. read more

Dinner for four yesterday at Alfio's was an amazing experience. Mike, our waiter, was very attentive and gave us a quick history of the place and explained the philosophy of the owner/chef and the restaurant as a whole. Two of us got the Chef's taasting menu and the others ordered a la carte. The items in the tasting menu were all cooked to perfection and were very tasty. The empanadas were excellent, but my favorite was the buttery, melt-in-your-mouth scallops served on risotto. Each dish was described well by the staff in detail. I would like to make a special mention of Marcella. She was personable and funny and got the door for us on leaving, with a handful of mints, I might add. Her interaction elevated the evening to another level. Thank you. And did I mention we drove down from Columbus on a cold, winter's day for this? It was well worth it and I would do it again. -Jas read more

Alfio's had some great dishes, but the service felt very slow. The servers were nice and knowledgeable about the menu. The price of the dishes were a bit high for what you're getting. The ambiance was great and a good date night spot. I got the angus 5 cheese and agnolotti pasta. The agnolotti only had about 2 pieces of the pasta. The duck bacon fettuccine could've been better, it was nothing special. The appetizers I think were the best part of the meal. We got the scallops, fried zucchini and empanadas cuatro. read more

Made reservations here for my wife's birthday while we going to be in Cincy for the weekend. We are both fans of Italian & Argentine food & the reviews had us excited to come here for weeks leading up to our visit. We came in at 8 on a Thursday & it was very busy but we were seated immediately & my wife was told happy birthday by the hostess & our wait staff. We started with the espresso martini which I have to say was very good. I've never had one with such a substantial foam as this. It was like a foamy pudding top & the mix was great. Then we had the Caprese & the empanadas Quattro (plus the wagyu special for the night) so there was 5 of them. Having had empanadas in Argentina in the deep Andes & the cities I thought I had eaten the best out there but let me tell you these were the exceptional. I can't even pick a favorite because they were so good. Maine were the gnocchi & ravioli & duck bacon fettuccine. We were honestly so full at this point we couldn't finish it. It was great the next day for leftovers. Nicole was an excellent server & was very patient & helpful with us. She gave my wife a to go dessert for her birthday. Great food, excellent service, & wonderful atmosphere. Don't hesitate to dine here! read more

Wow. It had been a long time since I had been in for a meal at Alfio's. Exceeded expectations with every dish. I was a bit surprised to find that there weren't tables available without a reservation on a Tuesday when most restaurants are either mostly empty or closed. After the meal, I totally understand why. Based on the meal I just had there, I'd put Alfio's in my top 5 restaurants in Cincinnati. More than just a casual dinner, Alfio's is special enough for the biggest celebration, but the menu is flexible enough for an upscale small bites meal on a Tuesday. One of the few places that I consistently find something new to try on the beer list, and for you wine afficianados, the wine list is excellent. read more

One if not the best restaurants in Cincinnati and our favorite Italian restaurant. My wife and I have been coming here for years to celebrate special occasions or just a random Thursday. The Short Rib Gnocchi might be the best thing on the menu with fall off the bone short rib, but honestly, it's all delicious. We also enjoy the arancini and the empanadas as starters and the tiramisu for dessert. If you're into espresso martinis, it's also one of the best in the city.

My wife and I went for her birthday; did the chef's tasting menu with wine pairings and were not disappointed. Each dish was mindfully crafted but not over the top, well-balanced, interesting, and genuinely enjoyable. The wine pairings were lovely and each meal and pairing came with sommelier explanation and background. The corner booth seating was a bit odd for a date night, but understandably improvised given how busy the restaurant was. read more

Four little words could describe our experience at Alfio's. They are "dark", "noisy", and "bad food". The best thing about our experience was going to Graeter's afterwards to try to get the taste out of our mouths. The food was so salty, and the smoked Bolognese tasted like an entire jar of Liquid Smoke had been poured onto the dish. The wine pour was the smallest I've seen in any restaurant yet. It was a scant 4 ounces at best. We split two dishes and they wanted to charge us a splitting fee of $10. When we sounded perturbed, the waiter said he would take care of the charge. Bad business. read more

I absolutely love this place! It was one of the best dining EXPERIENCES that I've had in a while, and I'll give most of the credit to the sommelier. We ordered the tasting menu with wine pairing, but to spice it up a bit we got one of the cheap wine pairs ($60) and one the expensive pairs ($100) so we could see if we could tell the difference. The sommelier would also switch them up on us, it was almost like a game and we had so much fun doing it. They said they switch up the tasting menu, so I am super excited to try this out again! read more

What a hidden gem! We had never heard of Alfio's before we noticed their menu for restaurant week and then saw all the positive reviews on Yelp. We had a delicious meal in a cozy and relaxed environment. The cocktails were very good; the old fashion was a personal favorite. Bonus point for the personalized ice cube with Alfio's name in it! We started our meal with the empanadas cuatro. It wasn't an easy choice because they were all so good, but I would say the spinach and cheese was my favorite. For dinner, I had the ravioli duo which was fantastic! Very rich, but oh so good! At the end of our meal, our table shared the apple bread pudding, which was one of the best bread puddings I've ever had.

How many times have I walked by and not noticed this place? Too many. But we attended a birthday party here last night, and I loved everything about this place! I even woke up this morning thinking about it... It's very cute inside, long and narrow. And very nicely put together. Fine dining behind a "blended in" facade. Service was excellent throughout the evening. Some of the party had appetizers and salads, and we all shared. Possibly the best Caprise Salad I ever had! And a perfect size to share. Actually, I would say everything was big enough to share. My date had a duo of ravoli...shortrib and mushroom, and it was oh so good. I had Chicken Parm and it was hugh...I have several meals more in my refrig and I can't wait to dig into that. But the star of the show was dessert...a Chocolate Cake with cherries and a whipped cream icing. Two of us couldn't finish one piece, and I just assumed the birthday couple had provided the cake to the restaurant, but no...apparently it's their signature here. That cake alone will get me a return trip. Actually, everything from the wine thru cake would get me back. I may have a new favorite place. It's located right in the center of Hyde Park Square, and there's a parking lot in the back. It's rare I get this excited about a dinner, but in this case it's a given. Cannot wait to return...again and again. And now I know to share!!! read more

This is by far my favorite restaurant in cincinnati. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. The tasting menu for the evening is hand picked by the chef himself, and if you pair it with wine it is delightful. All the flavors burst in your mouth and are unique but also comforting. This is my third time coming and we just touched a few options off the menu but even those are just as wonderful as the tasting menus. They have a wine connoisseur on staff to provide recommendations and the waitress also knew the menu like the back of her hand.

A wonderful classy Italian place with great quality in everything they do! Price w/ Tip $80 | Rating 9/10 Pros: Quality, creativity, flavorful, any occasion. Cons: Group over 6 not advised. For a friends birthday they decided to try this place near Hyde Park! We arrived on time (others were late) and were seated promptly. Our server had been here 8 year, knew all the details, matched our younger slightly chaotic energy, and kept the water and bread topped off. The interior is classy but not pretentious so if fits well for any occasion or style from casual to more formal. The food and drinks are all made in house and curated by the chef and it shows. Pasta and all flavors involved were perfect. For the first time I had a well cooked salmon at a restaurant and pistachio crust with the butternut squash puree base was INSPIRED! Even the drinks were a home run although slightly small imo. The biggest perks were the little things like ability of the location to fit out groups chaotic style, but also the other more patrons, the free and steady bread, and the general fun. I do recommend this location! read more

We had an AMAZING meal! Handmade pasta (you can taste the difference), delicious dishes, a cozy atmosphere with a refined flare, and excellent service! We drove in from Columbus (1 1/2 hours away) to celebrate my partners bday. Even had booked reservations 3 months out to make sure we could try this place out as it was highly recommended. It exceeded any expectations and was a wonderful dining experience! Alfio's Buon Cibo is located on the Hyde Park Square in Cincinnati. Parking was a bit challenging but we found app meter parking on the street a couple blocks away and walked down. For our meal we started with an appetizer: ~Gnocchi ($19) - lump crab, Pacific NW chanterelles, gnocchi, and cream sauce Our salads: ~Grilled Caesar Salad ($12) - romaine lettuce caesar dressing, croutons, and parmesan ~Beet & Goat Cheese Salad ($13) - fried goat, marinated beets, apple, onion, arugula, and a raspberry dijon dressing The dinner: ~Short Rib Ravioli ($30) - veal short rib stuffed, truffle, mushroom, and a creamy marsala ~Smoked Bolognese ($27) - fettuccine, smoked beef (ground) bolognese, and parmesan And desserts: ~Mediterranean Olive Oil Cake - raspberry icing, pistachio, white chocolate ~Chocolate Moda Antica Cake - bourbon soaked orange & amarena, triple chocolate orange & brown sugar cream icing ~Goat Cheese Cheesecake - whipped goat cheese, brown sugar graham cracker, raspberry coulis Absolutely everything was good! The homemade pastas were amazing and we enjoyed the flavors of each dish. I loved the Gnocchi, Beat Salad, and the Bolognese. We splurged a bit this meal with wine and all the courses. We even ordered two desserts and was treated to one more for the birthday. Wonderful staff across the board and such a lovely atmosphere.

We had never heard of Alfio's but the restaurant week menu looked good, so we decided to check it out and boy, are we glad we did! The restaurant is really pretty and has an upscale, but not stuffy vibe. Our server was top notch-he gave us a lot of recommendations and was personable but still very professional. Because the server did such a good job suggesting menu items, two out of three of us decided not to order off the restaurant week menu and instead got items from their every day menu. Everything we got was plated well and absolutely delicious. From their special menu, I had a salad with gorgonzola and figs to start with, then a braised short rib pasta with butternut squash and smoked gouda. It was amazing but very rich. Also ordered at our table was the pistachio crusted salmon, the empanadas, ravioli and the bread pudding, which my daughter decided was the best thing she has eaten in a long time. The only thing we did not care much for was their pumpkin spice semifreddo, which was just around the restaurant week. Restaurant Week did it's thing! It introduced us to an establishment we had never heard of and now will definitely go again in the future. read more
