    This place is everything and more! give currito and bibibop a break and try this. They have halal options too. Fixes my Cava craving. Service is always top notch and the inside is clean and large.

    Service: Phenomenal! Very friendly & excited to talk about what's on their menu. Gave great suggestions. Food: Delicious, fresh, flavorful! Build your own style bowls, wraps, or pitas. They have a wide variety of toppings available. Everything goes well together! We did a blend of rice & couscous, zesty feta, spicy hummus, and eggplant, then a variety of vegetables, chicken, and tzatziki. I love having more fresh options in Cincinnati, so glad this opened and I hope they are successful! Would love to see them expand into northern Kentucky.

    Super yummy, homemade hummus, pitas, salads and wraps... the friendly staff. Let me try all the things I wanted without any frustration, which I enjoy greatly. They are very motivated in allowing you to try everything because you can tell they want you to have the best eating experience possible. I got the lemon chicken pita with the harissa hummus and a variety of toppings. The harissa hummus was zesty, spicy & very good. Clean and organized atmosphere will definitely be back.

    Fresh ingredients and arrived well packed through delivery. The falafel was EXCELLENT. Hummus and dressing were all flavorful and tasted house made. I can't wait to try other options from this place.

    Hummus Republic on Calhoun St is a fantastic addition to UC. The Chipotle style Mediterranean joint has a nice, clean space and is serving up great food. The sauces and veggies are very fresh and the meats are well seasoned and nicely cooked. The chicken shawarma and gyro are both halal and I hope to see them expand the halal options. I look forward to returning and trying the other options.

    Drove from union ky to give it a try and would do it again! So delicious and fresh. Atmosphere was also very nice i can't wait to go back

    Solid mediterranean fast food place in the UC area. Ordered a make your own bowl. It was filled to the top and a great price as well. Flavors were great. Would compare this to Cava. Service was super quick, ordered takeout and it was ready in 10ish minutes. Great place for a quick eat in the Clifton area.

    Delicious, fresh, friendly staff. Nice open and clean place to sit. Our food came out warm and fresh quickly. We loved all additions and ability to make everything exactly as you like. The feta dip and all olive hummus were really great . A ton of food and reasonably priced. Definitely my new go to for lunch!

    A family operated gem! My husband I came in 2 minutes past closing time and they were happy to serve us. At closing time everything was clean & the friendly family operating made us feel welcomed! We're definitely coming back. (Hint...the food is great! keep it simple, the quality is there so you don't need much)

    Extremely clean and well kept!

    This place has a terrific vibe! While it is modeled after other successful and familiar existing chains in procedure and process, the food quality, freshness, cleanliness, kindness of staff, pleasant and spacious design, and exceptional ease of service exceed all others. From the fresh beverage selections (personal favorite was turmeric and ginger lemonade, but spouse preferred strawberry lychee and daughter preferred pomegranate) to the fresh ingredient bowls and pitas (main options prepared in smaller portions to retain quality and freshness) to grandma's hot sauce (flavorful and deeply enriching), there was nothing I could've possibly found fault in other than my stomach not holding more food! Bravo to these folks! Prime location and great potential! Hopefully, we see more locations around town in the future!

    Really good and much healthier than alternative quick lunch spots. A bit overwhelming at first, but the staff are helpful and friendly.

The space is open, bright and well decorated making it very inviting for brunch. You order at the counter from the menus placed along the wall then food is delivered to your table. The various brunch items all sounded very inviting so I was having trouble deciding what to order. So I got a recommendation to try the Shakshuka. Not sure how to pronounce it but when it arrived it was just the right portion and quite tasty for brunch. It's a bowl with a red pepper sauce and feta cheese and kale along with eggs sunny side up. The dish is served with pita so you can do a little bit of dipping in the tasty sauce. To accompany our food we selected the mimosa service and bloody mary pitcher. A pitcher is just perfect for sharing. And the mimosa service was delightful. The server arrived with a bottle of Prosecco and small carafes of orange, grapefruit and blood orange juices to mix yourself. The food was fresh and tasty with prompt delivery of our food to our table. Not quite a full service restaurant since you have to order at the counter but still a nice experience located downtown.

Seating is available at the bar…read morewhere there are baked goods like biscotti, mini muffins, chocolate chip cookies and banana bread are on display. Or you can be seated at a table in a large open dining area. Very community conscious with a ramp for wheelchair to get from main hostess area to the dining area. I was seated right away. Being visitor from VA Beach, I asked what's the recommended dish, the server suggested omelette. But I wasn't in the mood for omelette so I saw shakshuka. I tried their Green Goddess version that has spinach (instead of tomato sauce) and feta. The food is a solid 3. I also ordered the Dubai Chocolate latte. It was a 3 as you taste more the milk than the chocolate syrup. I also got their chocolate chip banana bread.

It was tough to have a conversation across the table. The food was a mixed bag. We enjoyed the French toast and bagels, and the mujadara had good flavor - a smidge dry. The tuna, which was supposed to be medium-rare, was overcooked and dry. The service was subpar. While a staff member (manager on call?) cleaned a table next to us, she accidentally sprayed one of us and their food with cleaning solution. We mentioned it to her and she apologized with no offer to replace the food. Our waiter was kind enough to agree to replace the food at our request. The previous staff member who sprayed us brought out the replacement food and rudely served it to us with attitude and without utensils. We had to flag another waiter down for utensils. Mistakes happen but the handling of this situation left a sour note on our celebratory brunch. We expected better service etiquette from Cafe Alma but left really disappointed. I hope management reviews how incidents like this are handled in the future.
