Food is amazing, portions are large. Owners are friendly. Cant go wrong with anything on the menu. I have used them for Catering as well and it always hits the spot. One of my favorite spots in the whole city. read more

Updating my review bc I got takeout for dinner with friends and it was so much better than the first time I had it. We got labneh (SO GOOD), hummus, a falafel platter, and a chicken shawarma platter. The chicken was amazing! As was the falafel (not dry at all). The garlic sauce was a little spicier and less flavorful than I'm used to, but I was glad to try it. The only negative was that the hummus had a bit of an odd flavor-- a little spoiled tasting? Though I'm sure it wasn't! read more

I ordered the gyro platter, which comes with two sides. I chose rice and salad, and the crunch and freshness complemented the gyro meat perfectly. I opted for sauce on top and the garlic flavor was a great addition. My friend ordered a wrap and fries on the side. Overall, great portions and delicious food! Nice workers and ample seating for a casual meal. read more

Ordered via DoorDash from this restaurant because it was still open at 8:00 PM when we needed food! Arrived quickly. Got the Mix platter, got to choose sides, as well as ask for dietary accommodations. Hubby ordered gyro platter. Both meals arrived quickly, accurately, and deliciously! Generous portions which we ate another day. Would eat there again! read more

Another amazing experience at Milya! Came in on a Friday night and had no wait. Ordered at the kiosk and our food came out shortly. I like the causal atmosphere of the place, and the quality you receive for the price is crazy. The portion sizes are incredible for the price. My dad ordered the gyro platter, and the gyro meat is incredible. Definitely recommend for dining in or carry out if you're looking for a large portion of fresh food at an affordable price! read more

Milya Cafe, a family-owned restaurant in Blue Ash, is serving up some truly delicious Mediterranean food. We ordered the gyro platter, chicken platter, and a gyro wrap. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and very enjoyable. Highly recommend stopping by to check them out and support this wonderful local spot! There was plenty of seating inside as it is nice and open and the service was great and fast. read more

This restaurant was a welcome change from the typical Greek restaurants I've visited in the past. The restaurant isn't really big so I wouldn't recomm for large groups. However there is seating for smaller parties to enjoy dine in. The service was quick and easy. Staff was nice and appreciative of our business. The serving size was huge. Definitely could've shared our meals. I had the gyro wrap with chicken and hummus on the side. It also came with a big Greek salad. Everything was fresh and had the right texture and taste. Will revisit when in area. read more

My wife and I do not have very large appetites so we share most restaurant meals. It hasn't always been this way. We enjoy Greek and Mediterranean food. I had never been to this restaurant before so rather than placing a pick-up order, I waited to see the restaurant and ask for advice. I decided to order a Gyro Platter and the sides I chose were French Fries and a Greek Salad. The amount of food was amazing and it tasted wonderful, especially the Gyro meat. I now have a new "go-to" restaurant for my Mediterranean cravings. Since I do all the cooking in our house, finding a good restaurant near by really helps when I am tired of cooking. I am looking forward to going back! read more

Still loving this place 9 years later- just as good as when we started going! Delicious, overly full gyros. The best in Cincinnati we drove up today from northern KY just to get our craving fulfilled! read more

So much food! It's all good quality but it was pretty overwhelming. Cute little restaurant that felt pretty friendly.

The food is authentic and delicious at this little family owned and operated Mediterranean restaurant. We stopped by for lunch. They serve traditional, freshly prepared favorites such as domathes and falafels. Our clerk was super friendly and made recommendations. After you order, you wait a bit as they prepare orders. I just had a Greek salad which was huge with tons of veggies and feta cheese. The cheese was mild. It was a great salad. My husband had the regular gyro wrap which was huge, packed with meat and a fabulous taziki sauce. He gave it his top gyro rating. They have about a dozen tables inside and one put on the patio. There is a parrot that sits on the patio and entertains you while you eat. Fabulous little place. I'd go back in a heartbeat. read more

Got carry out a few days ago. This was the third time I had visited Milya. The food is always great. I had the lentil soup with a nice amount of pita bread and the gyro salad. Wow--the salad was very generous with gyro meat--almost twice as much as other places give you. Very friendly counter people who make you feel welcome. I'll be returning regularly. One of Blue Ash's gems. read more

Love coming here for lunch, we drive from milford. The price is very good for what you get. The gyro is outstanding along with the hummus. The staff is always polite and helpful. The inside is a little small, but has some outside setting which is nice in the warmer months. Definitely worth going! read more

Amazing flavor!!! Best tasting chicken I have ever had at a spot like this ! Extremely friendly staff ! Huge portions ! The fries will knock you out ! Super crispy and well seasoned ! A real gem ! The hummus is so creamy and flavorful! I will be craving this place weekly ! We drove an hour and was worth every min ! read more

Milya Cafe was a quick lunch stop after shopping at Costco. We were recommended here by friends and the food did not disappoint. Interior is simple but functional, plenty of seating available. You order at the front, and can watch them make your food behind the counter on the left. The cashier was friendly and took our order. We opted for the Chicken Platter and Kafta Platter with fresh pita on the side. The food came out steaming hot and LOADED onto the paper plates they were served on. They definitely don't skimp out on portions here. The meat on both dishes were moist and juicy. The hummus paired well with the meal since it cut down the carb heavy meal. Fries were crispy and fresh. What can I say, we devoured everything and left with a full stomach. Checks all the boxes for a great experience! Even better if you're hungry. We will definitely be back and may need to incorporate it into our Costco runs. read more

Excellent food and friendly staff. We were the only non middle eastern diners when we arrived. Which is a good sign. The food was freshly made and portions were large for the price. I had the non traditional gyro platter - gyro in a pita with two sides. I chose hummus with a salad. The falafel is crispy and fresh not dry. Our kids loved the seasoned fries and cheese burgers. Willy the parrot was enjoying his view outside between naps. read more

Stopped by here today looking for a Gyro. The place definitely has Gyros. My daughter got the regular Gyro and I got the large Gyro. They had plenty of meat and the pita was nice and warm. Unfortunately, they were light on sauce, tomato and fixings. The fries were seasoned well, but needed to be cooked a little longer. Not the friendliest place. They were busy getting a catering order out. 6 people were working and the young man who took our order barely said hello. While I have not been there in a while I like Durum Grill gyros better. I may give this place another try, but I am not going to rush back. read more

Delicious food. You know it's gonna be good when it's served on paper plates. Would go back 100%

Cincinnati has a new gyro that is amazing! Other sides like babaganoush is also very tasty. I look forward to return.

Located in an unassuming shop in a small plaza, Milya is an absolute gem. With decent prices, the food is great! The fries are crispy and well seasoned, the hummus tastes authentic, and the gyro and chicken are very flavorful and salty. The portions are also perfect! This place is definitely a must have in the greater Cincinnati area. read more

What a great place. Large portions, everything is fresh and hot, loved it. They also have great hummus. It was kind of weird that three people sat there as I made several trips to bring the order to my table. No trays. We also had to ask for silverware. I'm sure I'd go back. When I left, I hummed out some farts. read more

My favorite Mediterranean restaurant. The food is so good, and I love the atmosphere, which is very casual, with the friendly owners and their family making the food. The chicken shawarma platter is heaped high with delicious chicken; don't skip the garlic topping (which is made, I think, with labneh). The baba ghanouj is excellent, as is the falafel, as are also the grape leaves and humous. One downside is paper plates; I'm willing to look past that for this wonderful little spot. read more

Great food, friendly staff, very fair prices. What's left? I had the chicken Shawarma wrap they came with plenty of chicken and just the right amount of spice. read more

Food is delicious and very plentiful - never been disappointed with my choices. Service is friendly and as quick as possible based on how busy they can get. The dining room is large enough for 20 or so customers. read more

You won't find a better deal on Mediterranean food in the Cincinnati area for the combination of quality and portion. The quality absolutely shines on its own but you also get a lot for a relatively low price. read more

It's mid food not middle eastern. As for as middle eastern food goes this is run of the mill. When you pick a side please get something other than rice as the seasoning is bland and is drizzled in oil. The service is also something to be lacking as they don't bring your food out to your table despite leaving tip at the kiosk after you order. The saving grace is the portion sizes are large and you do get what you pay for. read more

Food was incredible. I was shocked by how much meat they put on their salads. My gyro salad was incredible. Falafel was fresh and had a great texture. Strongly recommend read more

Food is always great! I pre order for my husband when at lunch and it's ready when he arrives! Great flavor and awesome portions!

I really hope people in Cincinnati understand how good this place. It's one of the places in the Midwest that can rival the Arabic food in Dearborn, MI. I've never had anything here that I didn't like and I've tried almost all of it. read more

Milya cafe - Small Fattoush with a side of grilled chicken. - Middle Eastern Near Me - Blue Ash, Ohio

Soup was decent but they give you a disposable tea spoon to eat it so it mostly spills on you. I also got a Greek salad with chicken. Chicken was shawarma type which was reheated and obviously not even made today. The tzatziki was spicy and tasted more like garlic sauce (Taom?) than tzatziki. The feta tasted spoiled and nasty and the olives were funky too. I would guess most of these reviews are fair or their friends. This place is average at best, and that is being generous. read more

Wow. This is another one of those unassuming places in a little strip mall that is just sensational. I heard great things and was finally able to stop by midday recently. There is a small amount of parking out front, but I can imagine at lunch hour it gets a bit crazy. There are some tables outside and inside there are several decently spaced tables. Nothing fancy, but the food speaks for itself. I ordered at the counter. I am not sure whether the lady didn't understand me, or I did not understand her (as she had a thick accent), but I thought I was ordering a Gyro sandwich platter. Instead I got fries, greek salad, and a huge generous portion of gyro meat atop it all. Thats ok, give me allll the Gyro meat goodness. I also ordered grape leaves and baklava. Now I am half Greek, so I can be a bit picky with my Mediterranean food, but this really checked almost all the boxes. The salad was fresh, and I loved the dressing. The only downside was it had regular olives on it instead of Greek. Minor detail. The fries were hot, crispy, and had a great seasoning on them. The Gyro meat was tender and perfect. I really liked their take on Tzatziki sauce which was green. It came in 1 cup on the side, so I will DEFINITELY order extra sauce next time. The grape leaves and baklava were just perfect. I am getting really really hungry just writing this review. The portion sizes were super generous for the amount you pay. I cannot wait to come back here again! read more

Our son took us here for lunch recently because he knew that we liked Mediterranean food. We waited at a table right next to the windows facing a outdoor seating area in front of the parking lot. It kept us entertained as I noticed there was a parrot (not in a cage) sitting on the railing next to the tables. He was very comfortable being around humans and many of them went to see him and offer him a French fry which he enjoyed. Apparently, he belongs to the owners. Casual setting and the portion sizes were generous. I ended up having the other half of mine as another meal the next day. I believe it was family run which I always like to support. read more

Such a gem, hole in the wall family owned restaurant. The service is very fast, owners are very accommodating, and extremely generous portions. Great baklava- not too sweet. Well seasoned chicken shawarma and the fries were unexpectedly crispy and seasoned. read more

I tried Milya Café for the first time this weekend & am so glad I did! The restaurant itself is very low-key but nicely & cleanly kept. I believe there is both indoor & outdoor dining, but my order was carry-out. There was a beautiful green parrot perched outside along the metal gate. The gentleman who took my order was very polite & patient & willing to explain any questions I had with the menu. I ordered a gyro wrap & French fries. The gyro is the best I've ever had. It had a pita wrap & the lamb was so tender & flavorful. The tzatziki sauce was delicious. There was also lettuce & tomato, which I am usually not a big fan of, but it had just the right amount for me & I didn't find myself picking a bunch off. The French fries were also pretty good, but there are so many other things that sound good that I would be open to try another side as well - which I'm sure I will do on my next visit. read more

This place is solid!! We love the chicken platter, and baba ghanoush, it's definitely enough for 2 people to share. The taste is fantastic and full of flavor, large platters for reasonable price. Everyone here is so friendly. Definitely our top Mediterranean restaurant in Cincinnati so far! read more
