Linda’s Bistro Menu

Sorry, We are updating this restaurant menu details.

    We had dinner on Saturday, and of the 3 entrees ordered none were deemed as anything special. I had the Shepherds pie; the presentation was poor, and the taste was just okay. The restaurant lacks atmosphere, and the servers need some more experience.

    If you are in a hurry this may not be the place to go, but if you have the time and enjoy amazing food you won't be disappointed. The Gorgonzola Penne was amazing! , ribs just fell off the bone and melted in your mouth. Crab cakes were great also. Atmosphere is cozy and so much better than going to some chain restaurant. I'd call this a "Must Try" if you find yourself in Aiken.

    Was just at Linda's last night for the special Spanish wine tasting and dinner, which was just fabulous! The wines, honestly, were not much to brag about except for the one white wine, which was very clean, soft and pleasant with nearly any foods. The meal was excellent, starting off with a breadstick and pesto appetizer and moving on to a shaved, aged beef salad that was amazing (I hope that one makes it to the permanent menu!). The soup was very good and the paella was perfect (what she does with those sweet Italian sausages continues to surprise me). If you live near Aiken or are just visiting, you have to try Linda's at least once!

    We were visiting Aiken for the 1st time in October and decided to try Linda's based on the Yelp reviews. The setting in the older home was very nice, the service was excellent, the wine was reasonably priced. The special, Chilean Sea Bass, was as good as I have ever had. Our friends shared the Shepherds Pie and were very impressed. Desserts were fresh and very tasty. All in all, a terrific and memorable dining experience.

    We ate dinner there last night and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The server was busy but attentive, atmosphere is charming. I had the special, eggplant parmesan, and it was excellent, FIL had calfs liver and loved it, MIL had Linda's risotta and also loved it. We haven't been there in several years, but we will definately be back.

    I'm going to go with 4 stars. I waffled between 3 and 4. Let's break it down: 1. Great ambiance, neat building and location in downtown Aiken. 2. Room temperature- it was toasty! They had the heat set on 79!! That's crazy. I was there on a Tuesday, and there were on,y 3 tables going. If it had been busy and packed with people it would have been too warm. 3. Our server was friendly, but a bit strange. 4. Food was very good, but not mind blowing. I would however love to go back as they have seasonal menus and wine tastings and I'd live to sample! It was a business dinner and it worked out for us that it was a quiet night. We had a large corner table, (really too big for 3) but large enough for us to have products out and have more than enough space for food. They have a great wine selection! Plus a full bar. Okay- FOOD! we had the smoked salmon and mushroom bread pudding appetizers. Both were excellent. Entrées- we had the ribeye which was cooked beautifully, and came with a HUGE portion of fries. The chicken Milanese, which was served with two roasted carrots and sautéed green beans. It was very good, and I ate all of it- but I felt as though it could have had a little more flavor. The last dish we had was the pork ribs. They were very meaty, well seasoned. It was a huge portion. They also came with the sautéed green beans. One of the things I appreciated was the portion size on the veggies. Usually you get very little- but I felt as though they were very generous. For dessert we did a creme brûlée, a flourless chocolate cake and a glass of Red wine. Cake was great, creme brûlée had great flavor and crust but was a tiny bit runny. Linda came out and asked how our meal was, it was a nice touch. I'm looking forward to going back!!!

    I was here very recently for a wine pairing dinner. The food, wine, and ambiance werr wonderful! Each of the five courses paired perfectly with the selected half glass of wine. The wine master on this night had a delightful attitude that made me want to go research the history of all the bottles in my wine cooler! Linda also came out to greet the guests at the end of the night. We had a great time and will return.

    On a Tuesday night I called Linda's to make a reservation for 15 people and to my surprise Linda herself answered the call. The restaurant is in a converted home and is lovely. Food was great... Try the risotto!! The only thing we tried and didnt like at all was the avocado ice cream with picante sauce. I'll be back again soon!

    Very nice restaurant. I felt the southern charm as soon as we stepped foot on the property. Located in what was once a beautiful, extremely well-kept home, this restaurant boasts a welcoming front porch adorned with rocking chairs and creeping ivy. Small menu with great selections. I ordered spaghetti bolognese which was very good . Although it was flavored differently than I make at home, I really enjoyed it. It tasted like the sauce had a hint if nutmeg. I really enjoyed it. The cappuccino is strong. The desserts were outrageous: I ordered the coconut bread pudding and my friend ordered the chocolate cake. I tried both - you should, too! Our server was excellent: attentive, knowledgable and friendly.

    Apperently doesnt allow infants (thankyou! The last thing a candlelit, romantic, high priced, dinner needs is a child. Even if they are "not making any noise" at the moment, a 2 hr meal is plenty room for a switch in behavior)

    Great food, and very good prices on upscale wines. A little pricey but great for a special occasion, or if you just feel like eating out and getting something special. About once a month they have wine dinners with wines paired with each dish. See the website @ lindasbistro-aiken.com Tue-Sat 6p-10p, reservations suggested; jeans and a golf shirt will work, but business casual is the norm... The address in Yelp is almost correct, it is the "Alley" not the Aly :-)

Italian Cuisine

The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.

Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.

If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.
