Bittersweet Bistro offers a wonderful atmosphere and delicious food. Their menu is fairly priced, with options like the best hamburger in town, steak sandwich, and short ribs, all paired with a good selection of beer. The Brussels sprout appetizer is a highlight, and the gorgeous patio is perfect for nice days. The staff is amazing, making every visit a great experience.
The restaurant is a great staple in Aptos, known as one of the better restaurants between Santa Cruz and Aptos, with a nice variety of land and sea dishes. Customers appreciate the ample outdoor seating, which has become a preferred option during the pandemic. Visitors often return a few times a year to enjoy the fantastic service and delectable meals.
The food is consistently impressive, with one customer raving about the perfectly prepared sea bass. The manager, Chris, even went the extra mile to redo the customer's dinner when an allergy issue was discovered, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to exceptional customer service.
