My family and I ventured from Manhattan to Queens for brunch for a change of pace. We were happy that we chose Aperitif Bistro. The food was very good and the service was attentive but not overbearing. Will recommend it to friends and family.

I had gone to their sister restaurant sage in Woodbury which was AMAZING! I was very excited to see there was another one in queens. I ordered the octopus, and escargot which was very good! But then I ordered the lamb chops medium and they came out over cooked, the spinach was also not very good. I sent the lamb back, the waiter brought it back out and now they were rare. He again brought them back and recooked it. It came back better but not as good as the ones at sage.

FOOD WAS DELICIOUS. Ambiance was romantic. Since it was Valentines Day service was a bit slower but understandable due to demand. I would highly recommend it to my friends.
