    We came two nights in a row we enjoyed the food so much. Delicious! Best mushroom soup and everything was super fresh. We had an allergy at our table and our server Jennifer knew exactly how to handle it.

    This is a very good restaurant that I frequented twice. First time my friends and I had wonderful steaks. Second time we celebrated a birthday and had great middle eastern food, Lamb Kabob and Ghormeh Sabzi that were delicious. Very attentive and gracious service.

    We had a fantastic dinner at Arya last night! Every dish we ordered was super delicious - their homemade bread basket, an eggplant dip with yogurt, lamb kabobs, cowboy steak and finally, a dish called fessenjoon, a pomegranate sauce stew with walnuts and chicken. Our server, Jennifer, was super friendly and knowledgable about the food, and we had some nice conversations that were not the usual rehearsed speeches. She recommended a wine, a California Pinot Noir, that went perfectly with our meal. I highly recommend this restaurant and am eager to go back soon.

    We had a fabulous waiter! He was so attentive and helped with decision making. His recommendation were right on. Our food was absolutely amazing. We ordered appetizers and meals and had not planned to order desserts. However, we all agreed that if the desserts were half as good as everything else we didn’t want to leave without experiencing a couple. They did not disappoint! We all left saying, and continue to still talk about, how our meal was perfect!

    Spectacular service and delicious foods. We were given a couple of samples which helped us decide what to order. Server was super friendly and helped liven up our already festive birthday celebration dinner. I loved my leftovers too!
