Lovely restaurant with phenomenal view! It's right by Pike Place so the location can't be beat. I went for an event so can't comment on the ala carte menu but from what I could tell, everything seemed very good and the catered event was . The drinks and appetizers were fresh and delicious. Can't wait to be back to try the dinner!

Wow!!! What a 5 star experience. Love our waiter Trent! He's super awesome from beginning to end. The perfect level of attentiveness and conversation. The food was superb from the appetizers to the entrees. Started with the bread and Bao's and then ended with the pork porterhouse and fried chicken. The hot sauce is amazing. Would highly recommend the asking for an additional side of the hot sauce!

Aerlume was absolutely delicious! The drinks were awesome, the food was amazing, and the service was fantastic. We also had a great table with a lovely view of the water and sunset which made the experience even better. We had a larger party, and our server didn't miss a beat--gave us great recommendations and was on top of everything. The appetizers were great. The octopus and cauliflower were my personal favorites, but honestly, everything we tried was great. We had someone in our group who's gluten-free, and she was super excited about all the options they had for her, especially the fried chicken, which was delicious. Overall, we'd definitely go back!

This is a high-end place near Pike's Market Place with an open kitchen able to serve large groups like ours. A big bar and nice view overlooking the sound make for a nice gathering. Food was good, fresh and creatively served.

We had a dinner with another couple at Aerlume for the first time on Saturday Evening, July 27th. I always go into restaurants with eyes wide open - and given a couple of poor reviews, was not sure what to anticipate. Parking was easy - right underneath the restaurant and PLENTIFUL! Easy elevator ride to the restaurant. The entry to Aerlume is beautiful - as is the view once you get through the glass doors. We were immediately greeted in a friendly manner - and seated right away. The service, drinks, meals, suggestions of pairing, etc. was "spot on" and fantastic. There are posts that shared that the food was bland - We absolutely did not experience that. Every meal and shareable that we had was great - We had the bread & butter, citrus marinated beets, Peruvian Steak Bites, Spanish Octopus, Tuna Poke, and the cauliflower. I guess almost all of the shareable starters. They were all excellent. For the main courses, we had the Alaskan Black Cod, the Goat Cheese Agnolotti, and the Sea Scallops. We even had a couple of the desserts to share - Carrot Cake with Pistachio Ice Cream (amazing) and the Cheesecake. EVERY meal was fantastic - as was the service. Attentive, yet allowed for private conversations. We had wine, a couple of the Pike Place Sippers, and the Manhattan. Also, all very good. If I was being picky (and doesn't seem like it so far) - the meal was in fact expensive, but we contributed to that by ordering a ton of plates! Also, we had reservations, but not the best view seats for the four of us. Not terrible views - but not the best either. I guess not everyone can have the best views! Overall, a wonderful evening (made even more special by the venue and Aerlume team) - and we will definitely return!

We made reservations at Aerlume for an anniversary dinner. The whole process was very easy and swift. On the day, we were given a table overlooking the lake and loved the view. For appetizers we got the pea soup, the dungeness crab salad and the monthly special smoked salmon pasta. For the main and dessert we got the grilled halibut and the carrot cake with pistachio ice cream. The pea soup and the carrot cake were our favorites! Their staff is very helpful and friendly and made sure to check-in with us after each course. We loved the whole experience of dining at Aerlume and would recommend it especially for the views!

The Service is exceptional to match the breathtaking view of the lake. We were personally greeted by the Chef and given a great introduction to the menu of the day. My party was pleased with each item ordered and all appetizers shared. With that being said, you can't go wrong with your choice. All meats are tender, fish is fresh, and vegetarian items are delicious. Dessert- Banana pudding is topped with Raspberry sorbet and pecans. A totally different spin from southern nana pudding but really tasty and a nice DESSERT!

The drinks were all excellent, including the bartenders roulette. We also ordered the bread, which was quite tasty too. It's a pricier spot for the portion sizing but probably worth it for the service and ambiance for most. The servers were very attentive and helpful. They were also super speedy! The ambiance was really lovely and cozy. We sat at the fireplace table and still had a bit of a view of the bay. If you'd like to be seated next to the window you'd probably need a reservation which we did not. We loved our fireplace spot though! Very cozy!
