What a great place to go for breakfast or lunch. The food is delicious and healthy. That is a hard combination to find when eating out. It is also great that they have several vegan options. The interior is light and comfortable. The owners did a great job reinventing the space. I would highly recommend trying this place. Also, if you need a place for an evening event this is a great option.

My friends boss recommended the place and it was fantastic! There’s a parking lot connected to the restaurant and across the street so there’s plenty of parking. The building itself has so much natural sunlight and it’s beautiful. The food was a 10/10 and so is the coffee. The latte I had was fantastic! The chef came out to talk to every table to ask how their food was and told us fun facts about the food. My server was so kind and the host was very welcoming. They even gave us a heads up that it was busy so ticket times might take longer but our food came out quickly ! I’ll 100% be back and I’ll make sure to tell everyone about it!

Eating your veggies has never been more fun than it is at Cafe Alma. This extremely pleasant, Pleasant Ridge spot is worth a visit for delicious food that will make you feel like you've treated yourself without having to use a cheat day. My absolute favorite is the rainbow hummus bowl which comes with a delicious challah loaf. The challah alone is a revelation and this is coming from a huge bread fan! Another standout is schmagel's bagel which is deconstructed for sharing, but I can also happily enjoy the whole thing. Coffee drinks are solid, as is the Sahklav if you are seeking something different.

With so many brunch places in the area, a lot of them blend into one but Cafe Alma stands out as a refreshing and unique option in the Cincy area!
Serving Israeli food, you have a very wide range of options from classic brunch items with a twist to more traditional dishes. The interior is bright and welcoming and the staff go above and beyond to ensure everyone has an incredible experience.
Today, my fiancé and I came for brunch and it was absolutely fabulous. I got the Canadian Grilled Cheese (an absolute must try if you come) and my fiancé got the challah french toast. They have an extensive drink menu (non alcoholic and boozy) and I ended up going with their Mid-East Mule.
This menu has something for everyone - including vegans and vegetarians. I never noticed before dining here at the Yelp Elite event that they base their menu on the Mediterranean diet which heavily prioritizes plant based eating - but the food is so delicious that you wouldn't even notice. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a delicious brunch!

Food was fantastic!!! We loved everything from the food, service, the ambiance, the music for a slow Sunday morning. Can’t say enough good things!
Our experience was nothing like the fewer star reviews. We were greeted with happy faces, sat fast, weren’t rushed and everything came out on time. The owner is very sweet, the host, and so was our waitress! The food was unique in its own way while still holding onto the classic dish. I love breakfast places that have good wholesome food that I wouldn’t make at home!!! Will definitely be back!!

Amazing menu! Great for breakfast, lunch, or just to grab a quick latte (the Cafe Miel is so good). They also give you a biscotti with your latte when you dine-in which is a treat. Food is always delicious, and a bit more unique than you find across the city. I love Shmagel’s Bagel for breakfast and the KAM salad for lunch. Great addition to the neighborhood!

This place is amazing. It truly is a Mediterranean and Middle Eastern inspired breakfast, brunch and lunch spot. The atmosphere is so cute and welcoming, the coffee is delicious as we got the coffee flight. We will definitely be trying new items off their fresh healthy menu. So happy that it's a short driving distance away!
