    Saturday night dinner for us as out of town guests. Good menu selection, and we enjoyed the duck bolognese. Busy and at times, but we were in no hurry, and enjoyed our meal here.

    Dinner at Aria before theater at The Belk was so convenient and delicious. The staff was very attentive and friendly. The foccacia was amazing as was the apple crostata. Chicken parm a house specialty was exactly that. Thank you for a lovely evening!

    We were seated at what was called “ the chef’s table”, which placed our party of 6 directly in front of the kitchen. VERY noisy. Our reservation was placed a month earlier, so I was a bit surprised that the location of our seating was so poor. Our waiter was a bit inattentive as well. The food on the other hand was delicious. I hope this experience was an anomaly and won’t be the norm going forward.

    It was very busy and loud but the food and drinks were good. A good choice before a show as they give a discount and validate parking.

    Wanted to try a different place before the theater production but was not very happy with our experience. The noise level was extremely loud and we found ourselves having to yell in order to have a conversation. The food was underwhelming. We had chicken Parmesan which was overcooked, shrimp and lobster pasta that I didn’t realize was squid pasta because the description was in Italian (my fault) and some kind of beef pasta that was just ok. I think we’ll try a different place next time.
