Customer Review Summary

Reviewers single out the friendly staff and the food, with the Frutti de Mare pizza named first, alongside pasta options, carbonara, a spicy pizza and a side of potato skins. Others praise the lobster, steak and lamb. One reviewer felt service was a bit rushed at the start, being asked repeatedly if they were ready to order before a theatre outing. A graduation celebration included extra touches from the staff.

    “We were visiting Sunderland for a work event, and opted to try Aperitif. Absolutely fantastic service with such a lovely atmosphere. The food was exquisite, from their Frutti de Mare pizza, and their sublime Pasta options.

Recommend this to anyone that is looking for a place to eat in Sunderland. Can’t wait to visit again on my return back to the north east. Thank you Aperitif for your high level of excellence. Keep raising the bar!”
