   Aria is nicely decorated and the cookbooks on shelves around the tables was a nice touch. Alex provided great service. The wines by the bottle had lots of options. For starters my date had a Caesar salad and I had the chicken dumpling soup. Both were very good. It is a small menu and two of the entrees were not available. Unfortunately, one was my date’s choice. She ended up with chicken and I had the long bone short rib pastrami. Serving sizes are large and both were delicious.

   Awesome meal on Easter Sunday with very efficient waitress. The salads were very substantial Delish! and definitely not a side salad. The entrees were very good of sole, duck, and beef stroganoff. Parking on Sunday was free on the nearby streets - no need for Valet. Beautiful hotel with abundance of art. Wonderful dinner!!!

   Service, particularly at the bar, was slow. It's loud and pricey. Not the most excellent hotel restaurant, though still an elevated experience on the whole.

   I ordered the duck breast. The texture and appearance gave the appearance that the duck breast was boiled, not pan seared as stated in the menu. The taste was bland. My wife and son ordered Beef Cheek Stroganoff. The meat was fatty which ruined the dish. I don't understand the 4.5 star review rating. The food was very disappointing and certainly not worth the money. FYI - I have never posted a poor review for any previous dining expertise at any other restaurant, however ARIA deserved the poor review.

    Our Brussels sprouts appetizer, sea bass, and broasted-ish chicken were excellent. With a sitting set 2 hours before showtime, we made the play easily. We are looking forward to our next visit.

    Superb dining experience. Five different entrees at our table and each was prepared to perfection with beautiful blends of flavors. Staff in the Aria and throughout the hotel were most gracious. The after dinner stroll through the Saint Kate art completed a relaxed evening. Can’t wait to return to the Aria.

    Our server was very competent and pleasant. The menu was diversified and provided many GF options. My wife is on a GF diet so she was pleased. The decor was simple but not overdone. We were pleased with our meal and were able to have a conversation even though I have hearing difficulties.

    The food, service and atmosphere was amazing! We had the Big Boy Burger, the Ceaser salad, and vegetable medley soup which was the special. They did allow you to enjoy your drink after eating so you never felt like you were rushed. Will definitely recommend and be back!

    The chicken was excellent; however the potatoes whacked flavor and the beans had a strange taste. I did not eat them. My husbands rib eye was tasty but contained a great deal of fatty gristle. Our server was quite good

    Basically you go here for the convenience of being close to the theaters. If you are going out for a “nice” dinner, there are way better options in the vicinity.

    Menu selection seems to be getting more limited. We decided to keep it lite and enjoyed a couple salads plus a side order of chicken wings that looked great but could have been cooked longer. Wine selection made us both happy plus the roll or bread plate was perfect.

    Sea Bass sent back. Tasted and then others in party commented on its small. Dinner replaced with chicken and this dinner was very very good. Pirogies were also a big disappointment. Would never reorder this dinner. However the Squash Soup was excellent and would reorder. If dine again I would order the Chicken Soup ( my brother loved this soup ) and then add in a Big Boy Burger. This would be a comfort food dinner.

    GREAT food at an easy Rep venue. Excellent service, well timed throughout. Ashley is a star. Sat too close to the piano man, which made conversation hard for us 'old folks'.

    The people and the service were good, the food was not stellar. The flavors were bland and the presentation was average. The prices of the dishes reflected the prices I pay in restaurants with amazingly delicious dishes, and that's just not what was offered here. The menu also felt a bit limited. The desserts all came served in the same glasses as our water and were not freshly prepared. We tried 2 of them and they had clearly been in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours. For the price and the location....the head chef really needs to up their game.

    Very good service. The waiter apologized for the wait on the food and compted our 2 wine glasses, without us asking! My husband had the duck, and enjoyed it. I had the striped sea bass that was done right but lacked seasoning.

    The vibe was great, really chic and live music. Our waitress was nice but brought the wrong appetizer. We also waited a very long time from the time we were able to get drinks, to the appetizer, to the food. We felt forgotten about. The food however was delicious! Didn't have time for dessert because everything else took too long.

    We were taken to a perfect table out of traffic. Our server was attentive and explained menu items well. Our cocktails were prepared so well. The cheese board had a tasty variety of cheeses and the bread was warm. The long bone short rib was great. The beef stroganoff was very tender but I would have preferred a flat noodle pasta with it versus the spaetzle. We’ll be back soon.
