    Came here with a party of six for dinner service. Ambiance of the restaurant was beautiful and authentically Persian. I had the shish kabob, which was delicious. We finished up our meal with a saffron tea which was soothing as well.

    Valentine’s Day menu was delicious from start to finish. Our server was good, could have been a bit more attentive. He forgot to give me a rose at the start of my dinner. I had to ask for it at the end of our dinner which made me feel a little left out because I saw tables around me getting their rose as they were being seated. I was a little shy to ask for it but I asked the lovely lady who picked up our plates and she apologized on the servers behalf. Other than that small detail, I really enjoyed my first experience at Arya. Me and my partner got the filet minion and New York steak, AMAZING. The hostess were very polite. We arrived early and they offered us a seat at the bar while we waited.. we don’t drink so we just took a seat on the benches at the main entrance, but we truly appreciated the kind gesture. My partner and I will definitely be back to try the regular menu soon. Thank you Arya for a great Valentine’s Day dinner experience.

    Service here has always been solid. They deliver on a good product. A bit pricy for a lunch, but still a plentiful plate. Kabob soltani is a great pick. I’m still sad they discontinued the lamb due to the price $$. Overall good meal and quick in-and-out for a working lunch.
