Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Clifton

Ambiance, service and food is praise-worthy. Comfortable banquette seating is available, quieter, and offers grand views of a busy kitchen and lively dining room. Christine and Heather attended to our requests. Both engaging and knowledgeable, their pacing of our 5 course meal was perfection! Kudos to the kitchen, in that regard, as well! An order - or two - of Pommes Soufflées IS A MUST for every table. Truffle season delights. Chicken with truffled risotto was very good, but the gnocchi with shaved black truffle was the winner overall.

My husband and I enjoyed a fabulous pre-Christmas date night at The Aperature. I have been wanting to dine here since they opened but hadn’t yet been able to make it in. Our food was fabulous and our server, Sam, was perfectly friendly and attentive. In fact the entire staff was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed sharing the small plates. We had the garlic & eggplant hummus, the sweet potato with feta, the kale pesto spaghetti, and the ribeye. Literally every single bite was delicious. We split the toffee pudding for dessert. We felt the food quality was as good or better than another local small plates restaurant we visited this time last year and The Aperature bill was HALF of what it was at the other place.

Our server was lovely and managed our table of 6 “very Merry” ladies like a gracious pro! The food was excellent and was well timed! Hadn’t been there in awhile and was quite impressed with the menu and service, particularly during the busy holiday season!

Great food, mojitos and service. We'll be back! The Ropa Vieja is my favorite. Flan for dessert. A great meal.

Our group of 7 ate here after cocktails at Ghost Baby - so we were hungry! The server made great suggestions (risotto balls were delish and came out speedily after we ordered). I enjoyed my burger (dirty something ...) and friends thought their dishes were good too. Also raves all around for more fun cocktails here.....
