Best meal I’ve ever had. Was concerned that I might be stuffed after eating 6 course tasting menu and that the wine pairings would be too much alcohol for me, but neither was a problem. I shared a little of my wine with my wife.Every course was wonderful. Especially liked the scallop in asparagus bisque and prawns in chorizo cream with Parmesan polenta. The Riesling with the salad course was the best I’ve ever had. The almond cake with rhubarb gel was a nice finish - just sweet enough. The texture of the cake was perfect, not heavy but also not too airy.I often have problems sleeping after eating a big meal or drinking alcohol, but I slept great after this meal.

What a great restaurant and experience. My wife and I celebrated our 20 year anniversary and chose Ariana for our meal. We were not disappointed. The restaurant was beautiful from the outside to the inside. The host was very friendly and joked with us. We were seated in a romantic spot. The waitress was one of the best we have ever had. Her knowledge of the food and wine was astonishing. She was very friendly. Lastly, the food was amazing. We selected the six-course meal and added the wine pairing with it. I highly recommend this experience. Each course has wine paired with the food and it was perfect. I could tell the chef studied what wine would go perfectly with the food. This was such a memorable place for us and one we will talk about for years.

The tasting menu was outstanding

While perusing the menu, our group of four discussed our “best ever” meals. Mine was a delectable baby bass at Lutece during Andre Soltner’s reign. My husband’s was at a simple trattoria overlooking the Bay of Naples. Another was at a world-famous ski resort. By the time I finished the tasting menu at Ariana, it had leapfrogged over all my other dining experiences to the very top. Every aspect of our memorable evening was non pareil — inspired food and wine pairings and exceptional service in an elevated bungalow setting. I will do my best to secure a Michelin star for this restaurant!

Excellent presentation and preparation of all 6 courses. The wine pairings were also spot on. Service was as good as the food. A very memorable dining experience.

Food was out of this world ? delicious excellent service too

What an amazing dinner we had tonight at Ariana. It was our first time. Trust me, it won’t be our last time. Just absolutely beautiful, delicious food and perfect service. It is tough to get reservations and you’ve got to plan way ahead.

Fantastic meal - went here for my birthday and we were not disappointed. The tasting menu is well priced. We chose to do the wine pairing which was very well done and paired perfectly with each course. None of the courses disappointed or missed the mark as has been our experience at some other restaurants with tasting menus. The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely be going back!
