    For a restaurant that has only recently opened and on Christmas Eve, Aberdeen did a surprisingly great job. The menu is filled with unique and unusual taste combinations and variations on standards. They sport an excellent wine list. The staff is very attentive. Though some are new to serving in a fine dining environment they were all well trained and attentive. We had the pierogi's for an appetizer. Superb. My wife's scallops were large and plump and she said the accompaniments were as good as the scallops. I have the smoked short rib. It was tender enough to eat with a fork. It was only lightly smoked so that added to rather than overpowered the flavor. The dumplings with it were different and delicious. We finished with a delightful Pineapple Upside Down cake dessert with ice cream. Unlike so many restaurants today the noise level was reasonable. There was a decent crowd so that was appreciated. Overall Aberdeen Social House is a wonderful dining experience. The team behind it have done a great job with a unique menu, an attractive space and excellent service.

    This was a family Christmas/birthday celebration. One of our members has celiac and therefore gluten free. This was noted in our reservation. Staff was aware and very accommodating. There was a gluten-free menu, but we also were told by the manager (who double checked our order with us) that many of the other selections could be made gluten-free and all we had to do was ask. Staff was attentive but not intrusive. The food was excellent/amazing and although I would never consider this inexpensive or even moderate every penny as well worth it.
