Always outstanding. It’s great for vegetarians and meat lovers. The jeweled rice is not to be missed, an absolute delight. The way each dish was layered in flavor is just masterful and truly difficult to replicate. On the pricier side, it is a treat and perfect for special occassions.

First time being at Aleria and we initially thought it's a snack/dessert and drinks holiday themed place. But now that we know it's a restaurant, we will be definitely skip Christmas cooking and come to Aleria for a full lunch or dinner experience next year! All the drinks and the desserts we ordered were very yummy and the service was 20 out of 10!!!!! I loved the birthday surprise!
