" What a gem! I had the lamb shank and it was as delectable as it gets! The service was perfect; my server made great recommendations for my meal. Although it was a busy night, we never felt neglected. The decor of the restaurant was pleasant, quite inviting. I can’t recommend this place enough if you’re craving authentic Persian food; my friends and I were so happy with our decision to try it out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Aria multiple times now, and it has quickly become my go-to for Persian cuisine. The lamb was so tender and packed with flavor. I also recommend their eggplant dip as a starter; it’s unlike anything else I’ve had. The service has always been friendly and prompt, and the prices are quite fair for the quality of food. I keep coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Aria Restaurant for a family gathering and it turned out to be a wonderful choice. The atmosphere felt cozy and suitable for families. I had the dizi and the lamb shank, which were both flavorful and well-presented. The service staff was friendly and they catered to our large group efficiently. I also enjoyed the complimentary salad that came with our meals. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy real Persian cuisine in a comfortable setting. " (*Curated Review*)

" We celebrated my mom's birthday here, and it was the perfect place for her special day. The food was beyond delicious! We tried a variety of dishes, but the lamb shank and the chicken skewers were the absolute stars of the meal. The restaurant had a lovely ambiance, and the staff went above and beyond to make our experience memorable, even bringing out a small cake for the celebration. It was a delightful evening, and I can't recommend Aria enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I had a wonderful dinner here last weekend. The variety on the menu was impressive and everyone found something they enjoyed. I tried the salmon kabob and it was cooked just right - not dry at all! The prices were reasonable for the quality of food we received. Service was prompt and friendly. I will definitely come back, especially knowing they have vegetarian options as well. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, I left Aria disappointed after my visit. The food just didn’t meet my expectations, especially tasting bland. The service was friendly but felt slow. The atmosphere was nice, but I wanted to love this place and just didn’t. I feel bad giving a lower rating as the reviews are so good, but I maybe caught them on an off day. " (*Curated Review*)

" Aria Restaurant is a lovely spot for authentic Persian dishes! Every dish we ordered was bursting with flavor. I particularly enjoyed the chicken koubideh, which was grilled to perfection. The atmosphere is very cozy, and the staff is genuinely friendly. I highly recommend finishing your meal with the saffron ice cream; it’s something special. I can’t wait for my next visit!
