L'Aperitif

L'Aperitif 

Type: A self-described "Tapas restaurant and Eurolounge." 

Unique Food: They offer Tapas style dining which is several small plates (some people may call them appetizers) and they have a full bat set up "european" style. 

Atmosphere: It is a nice place with large couches or tables, it is dimly lit and is more on the fine dining side. 

Specialties: They have a jazz pianist on Wednesdays and Fridays

Food: The food is tasty and different and they have gourmet drinks as well as some nights offering drink specials on wine and beer. 

Price:The entrees are slightly pricey, you probably won't pay less than $20 per entree.  

 Service: The service was pretty good when I went but they had newly opened so it may have even improved since then. 

Overall Experience: 8 out of 10

Location: Front Street before the Sea Dog on the right
