    Service was great! Food was very good. It’s a little sterile in the environment, but certainly not bad. Candles flowers might help…

    The restaurant was crowded so it was a little loud, not a bad thing. The servers were running to try to keep up, I felt bad for them. I tried the aroma martini but had to send it back, more olive juice than Gray goose. Server was understanding, I opted for a red wine. They didn't have merlot. We shared the Mediterranean salad, and it was perfect! I got the tagliatelle with bolognese, very good and large portion. My husband got the chicken parmesan. It was processed and tasted like it came from Olive Garden, very salty. Disappointing. Overall, we gave a 4 because of the ambiance and how hard the staff was working to make everyone happy. We will return but will not be ordering the chicken parmesan again.

    Food was good, but changes to menu had a hiccup. Wait staff was not big enough to handle a full house.

    We just moved to the area and figured we would try a local Italian restaurant. It was delicious!! Everyone got something different and we loved every dish. We booked an early reservation since we have a two-month old, but by the time we left, it was packed and loud. Loud with everyone conversing and enjoying the evening. Obviously, they were short staffed with the “off-season” or “locals summer,” but everyone was patient knowing a great meal was coming. We cannot wait to return!

    While the food was very good, if not, excellent, the service was beyond awful. Food delivery was beyond slow and I swear I think our waitress was working another job while waiting on us as she was completely MIA. Not only was food delivery beyond slow but there was no one to refill water glasses, remove empty plates, deliver bread to the table, etc... We were not alone as the table behind us (btw, the tables are literally right on top of each other) had a similar experience. Furthermore, there was an entire table of four that walked out after being seated and waiting 15-20 minutes without anyone coming to their table to take their order. It's a shame because the food was very good.

    Waiting for an hour to eat then waitress was very rude when we asked about it. She then refused to serve us & turned us over to someone else. At least 3 tables that came after us with 2 people were finished before we got our food. We were 3. No reason for that & to be treated the way we were.

    Aroma renovated since my last visit and it was beautiful and more spacious. Dining after Labor Day, there were plenty of open tables available. Marissa was a pleasant server. For me, the hit of the meal was the hot octopus appetizer ($23), with an interesting preparation that included a large portion of octopus, artichokes and a delicious pomodoro sauce. The very good Chicken Aroma entree ($30) had an almost smoky flavor with a demi-glaze sauce and pasta. Two negatives for me. Aroma is no longer a BYOB and I found the wine-by-the-glass list limited. Second, staff busing the tables should be trained to not pull plates from the table while someone is still eating. It is annoying and makes the person feel pressured to finish. I would definitely return.
