Bistro Aracosia offers a delightful dining experience with a variety of delicious vegetarian options and expertly prepared dishes. The assorted dumplings appetizer and smoked braised lamb shank are standouts, featuring distinctive flavors and tender meat. The different stews, appetizers, meat, and vegetarian dishes are so delicious and satisfying, with many layers of flavor. The chicken lawaan remains a "must order" for many visitors. The service is outstanding, attentive, and courteous, making every visit a treat. Bistro Aracosia is a jewel of a restaurant, offering good value for a great meal, and is recommended for those looking to enjoy a Mediterranean menu.
The restaurant is known for its wonderful special takeout packages, and customers enjoy the uncrowded dining and relatively uncongested route during lunch hours. The food is consistently delicious, with the grilled meats, eggplant, chickpeas, chicken, and lentils receiving high praise. The ambiance is fine, and the staff is attentive and pleasant. Customers appreciate the variety of vegan and gluten-free choices available.
