    Always outstanding. It’s great for vegetarians and meat lovers. The jeweled rice is not to be missed, an absolute delight. The way each dish was layered in flavor is just masterful and truly difficult to replicate. On the pricier side, it is a treat and perfect for special occassions.

    Was overpriced, well executed mains, small. Service and location was great. Afterwords had to go down the road for a salad/desert and food for the 8yo girl. Can see it as an old New York wannabe rich school vibe, photos of George Lucas and Frances Ford Coppella, mixed with the Female only wines was weird. Would I come back, na.

    First time being at Aleria and we initially thought it's a snack/dessert and drinks holiday themed place. But now that we know it's a restaurant, we will be definitely skip Christmas cooking and come to Aleria for a full lunch or dinner experience next year! All the drinks and the desserts we ordered were very yummy and the service was 20 out of 10!!!!! I loved the birthday surprise!

    Absolutely incredible restaurant. The ambiance feels like you stumbled onto something off the beaten path. It feels like fine dining but the pricing is very reasonable - so this is somewhere you could go to celebrate a special occasion or just meet up for a nice weekday dinner with friends. The food is also incredible, we tried the duck gnocchi and the Bronzino which was absolutely delicious. The restaurant has classic meals with a slight twist making each dish feel unique and special but also still approachable. The service was very friendly and efficient. Our waitress balanced that line of interrupting conversation to serve us while also giving us plenty of space. It was a wonderful experience. They also provide complimentary coat check so your coat isn’t handing on the back of your chair. This and other similar small details made for a fantastic dining experience. Highly recommend, I will certainly be going back.
