We enjoyed our drinks and apps at Aperibar. Service was great and the ambiance was really nice. We ordered the lobster ravioli entree special and it was inedible. The ravioli were cold and hard, the filling was not good, and the lobster was gritty and overcooked. Very disappointing for a $40+ dish we didn’t even finish. We left hungry :(

Had a nice little two person early evening meal. 5 PM, super quiet. It was getting busier as we were leaving. The food was great, the service was great, espresso martini was fantastic.

Restaurant Review: A Perfect Dining Experience I had the pleasure of dining at AperiBar, and it was truly an outstanding experience. From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, attentive, and professional. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and well taken care of, making the entire evening even more enjoyable. As for the food—absolutely fantastic! Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with incredible flavors. The ingredients were fresh, the portions generous, and the attention to detail in each plate was impressive. Shout out to the Chef’s special of the night. A delicious truffled gnocchi with filet mignon. It was divine! The restaurant also has a great wine selection. Perfect for a dining celebration. Overall, AperiBar delivered a top-notch dining experience with impeccable service and exceptional food. I can’t wait to return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable meal!

Very much enjoyed our pre theatre dinner - the salads and appetizers were generous and a good price and the quality of the food was excellent. Only knock was the paucity of the beets on a beet salad. Only three small beets! Nice wine choices and an excellent espresso martini. Would go back.
