ONLY complaint is that there needs to be additional restrooms. There was always a long line even though it’s not a huge restaurant

Great spot to grab good food and delicious drinks in midtown.We went after a broadway show,were 15 minutes early for our reservation and so we had to wait but were graciously treated complimentary drinks while we waited for our table! Great ambience and subtle tasteful decor. The tables are decent sizes and you’re not on top of each other. Our server was super friendly and very cool! He answered all our menu questions and made sure we had everything we wanted. The staff was very attentive without having to hover over us.. Food was very well made and in perfect portions. We had a great experience and would definitely come back.

This is my second outstanding experience at AperiBar. Our server was attentive and kind. Pre-theater "special" was such a good value for FOUR courses. Food is delicious from the appetizers through dessert.
