Friendly and sweet staff, creative cocktails, and great ambience. Did not get to try the Italian food, which is my only regret! Only came for the drinks. Amazing place, thank you �
I have been to this place so many times..... I have never been disappointed never had a problem..... As a matter of fact I live in ocean township nj and do make the trip to the city just have great food and wonderful wines ...... I extremely recommend anybody to stop by and give this place a try..... Trust me you'll like it
This place is amazing, it's a cozy area and has a wonderful staff. They treated us so well and made our day more special.
The food was delicious, and also the drinks! My favorite food was the warm chocolate cake.
Definitely a nice place to hang out with friends or have a first date.
Searched RESY for a tapas restaurant and was plenary surprised when an Italian restaurant showed up. We did not have reservations and went at 5 on a Friday. We were seated with no issue, at this point it was basically empty. Within half an hour there wasn’t a seat in the place.
We had the grilled octopus salad as well as the goat cheese and mango salad to start. Both were outstanding. For main courses we had the lobster risotto and the lamb shank. The lobster was cut into pieces like little prizes throughout the risotto. The bone on lamb shank over risotto was so tender it fell off the bone.
We will absolutely be back, we loved this meal!
This place was fantastic! The service was exceptional and they walked us through the menu, the specials in detail, didn’t rush us to order and let us take our time. The burrata, Caesar salad, pesto pasta, mushroom truffle pasta were heavenly . Also wnjoyed the Chianti they had to offer, prices were also amazing, about &60 a person for a table of 4 - including tax tip 3 drinks a person , an appetizer per couple and 4 entrees…HUGE!
Thank you!
Great ambiance and food. Incredibly friendly staff; look for Venera -she’s attentive and kind. Aplausos to the Latinos in the kitchen. The tiramisu was delicious. I would just say that I really missed Codino’s crostini -pork & octopus.
very good place to taste good (Italian) wines while tasting very good pasta
lunch meal possibilities at quite reasonable price
do not hesitate to enter despite the scaffolding
Absolutely love this place. If you can’t find a table, try their sister restaurant around the corner. Such a cozy vibe instead with great specials. We started off with the goat cheese and tomato sauce and the meatballs. Both were killer and I’d order them again. For starters, we had the risotto of the day which was mushroom and Parmesan risotto, and the penne pasta. Overall fantastic meal with quick service.
The staff is great. Their octopus dish is the best I've had in many restaurants. The wine list is fairly priced and delicious. Try the Italian Primitivo (the original zinfandel).
Everything at Aria was PERFECT!! The staff were all so fun and sweet and the food was INCREDIBLE. We got the pear salad, calamari, mussels, truffle gnocchi, lobster ravioli and the chocolate soufflé and it was all 10/10! We also got a bottle of the Chianti which was delicious. Will definitely be back!
Nice place good for a group not too crazy, reasonable price and good food
