Aria Hell's Kitchen

“I have followed chef Roberto Passon for more than 20 years in Hell's Kitchen and his food is always amazingly flavorful and well-priced. We had a brunch here after our wedding and Mark the manager pulled out all the stops to make sure everyone had an amazing meal. He was always cheerful and put us both at ease from the start. The staff were very kind, and we felt like we mattered to them. Everything was straightforward and uncomplicated compared to other venues we had considered. Devations and variations were easy to arrange. Our guests were very impressed by the eggplant rollatini and lamb shank, and everything else. The space feels airy and beautiful with all of the natural light coming through the windows. The quality of the food is astounding, without the formality. It feels comfortable and natural to be there. I love the primitivo (again, very reasonably priced). This is a neighborhood favorite of ours (like their sister restaurant Briciola across the street). We have very nice memories to relive next time we stop in. Highly recommended.”

“Went to celebrate a friend’s birthday here and what a fantastic place! The food was fresh and delicious, the service was impeccable (thank you, Mark). We had appetizers, drinks, and entrees, followed by a tiramisu with candles provided by the staff (they even sang for us!). Mark rounded the night off with a complimentary round of birthday digestives. Love a restaurant that truly cares about patrons. We felt so cared for. We will absolutely be back! Thank you for an unforgettable night!”

“We were group of two who tried to feed ourself at the late night hour, 22:15 when the majority of restaurants were either closed for dinner. Or no longer taking dine-in guests. We walked by Aria and noticed the restaurant still had two out of the thirds of tables still occupied. The host was very kind to allow us to dine in for dinner. We ordered the grilled octopus salad and truffle gnocchi from their specials and also ordered a glass of Riesling and Old Fashioned cocktail. The service was very attentive. We appreciated they served their food on heated plates. The grilled octopus salads was delicious and well stirred with veggies. The truffle gnocchi was cloud-like and flavorful with cheese and truffle well blended. Both dishes were very delicious, especially went well with our drinks. We definitely will return to try other dishes soon.😋”

“Came here on a Wednesday night for dinner before a show. Lovely, intimate and cozy atmosphere. Great decor and lighting. Service was fantastic. We ordered off the specials and started with cauliflower soup with shrimp. This was the best soup I’ve ever had. Very generous portions, could have been a meal. The lasagna and sauce were delicious. Another pasta dish was good as well. Warm bread and dipping oil was served before meal. Two glasses of wine. All coming to a very reasonable price for a high quality meal. Would definitely go back!”

“Very cozy place for dinner!!! Food was also great & they have a lot of wines to choose from. Only issue we had is we felt like we were being rushed since the waiter was already taking our plates while we were still finishing our starters lol!”
