Some items were exceptional; ceviche, bluefin tuna appetizer, roasted yams, ribs, sea bass, pasta with seafood. The misses; focaccia bread for $11!, cioppino was too salty, pork chop sauce was so sweet the flavor of the high quality pork was disguised. Drinks were all very good. Will definitely be back for the scallops and fried sea bream.

An incredible culinary experience, if you can afford it. $250 for brunch for 2 people. But well worth the splurge. From the quality of the cuisine to the ambiance to the exquisite service, an all around superb once-in-a-lifetime type of experience.

We went to Aro Latin before the UCLA game at the Rose Bowl. The tacos were so delicious, we had to order another round. Margaritas were amazing. Staff was incredibly friendly. Will definitely go back!

Fantastic, beautiful venue. Service was top notch! We asked why they didn't have an item this year on the buffet as they had in the past, and they went and made that special dish for my wife.
