Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Bellevue

Terence our server was patient and on top if everything. We came for happy hour. Great selection and prices. Dry rubbed wings really good. Reuben excellent. Highly recommend checking out the happy hour. Thursday half price bourbon. Great entertainment too during the holidays.

I booked your restaurant for Christmas Eve. We had never been and I was really excited for a downtown view and good food. The service was slow. And the food, was good but not great. I think this seems like a good place for drinks and appetizers. We had the mussels, which were good. The chorizo is a bit much. We had the shrimp and scallops. The scallops were cooked perfectly. But, again with the chorizo which was overpowering. We also had the pork chops, very good but a large portion. My son had the salmon and it was good, probably the favorite meal out of the three. This is a lovely atmosphere and staff is friendly.

We had an a fantastic experience! Thank you for a wonderful experience

It was a great experience. Our waiter was a tentative and friendly. The staff was very polite and I will be back soon.

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.
