Aria Restaurant - Stamford, CT Reviews List

Aria Restaurant - Stamford, CT

Aria is a very versatile Italian restaurant that can accommodate virtually any sort of dining experience. Aria's menu reflects the cuisine of all of Italy - north to south. Aria's chef/owner Stefano pays homage to dishes familiar in Italy but not acknowledged here such as cous cous, and pastas like farro and fregola (a Sardinian grain).

"Service was awful. Only 2 waiters for all tables, one if whom served as busboy as well. Long wait to even be served bread, manager visibly chastising wait staff, and food was generally underwhelming. Will not be dining there again."

"Unfortunately, the server did not speak English well and we had a very hard time understanding her. We were uncomfortable so we thought it was best to leave. We went to one of the places we truly enjoy. We really wanted to give it a shot but we did not want to spoil our night.This rating is not based on the food, service, ambiance, or the noise since we did not eat. We were not allowed to proceed with the review without selecting the other options."

"As always, a pleasure to dine here, especially with friends. The noise level is manageable, unlike most of the new restaurants that have opened in the past 3-4 years.
The excellent wine list and the owner's ability to pair wines with the food being ordered is a lovely bonus.
Coconut creme brulee was a dessert special and it was brimming with fresh coconut shreds and a well-glazed sugar crust.
