My experience went really well. I made a same day appointment to celebrate my interview article release in a local magazine. Jovan accommodated the reservation and Alex, my waiter took great care of me. My allergies actually began bothering me the later it got and Alex brought me hot tea with lemon up on my request. Ruth's Chris actually doesn't sell sweet hot tea. It's either hot tea or cold sweet tea. Alex manually made it for me TWICE. The meal was better enjoyable with the hot tea as it made me feel better in too of the food was amazing! I prefer Alex being my designated waiter from here in out, although that may not be feasible. Just make a note of this. :) Overall, a good dinner and large enough portions to take for lunch tomorrow. Ruth's Chris remains to lead the list as my favorite restaurant. When I say a medium steak, that's exactly what I get.

I always have a good experience here. Luscious was our server and tended to our needs just as a server should. He was conversational and very nice. The meat-cutters Jeremy & Tyler always bring a smile to my face and are super polite. Can’t wait to head back here to enjoy another night out!

Bellini's features 100% Prime Organic Beef, housemade pastas, veal, seafood and classic Tuscan Italian dishes. Bellini's maintains an extensive wine selection and weekly desert specials. Our bar opens weekdays at 4pm for drinks and dinner service begins at 5pm Monday to Saturday.

The waitress for our dinner on Christmas Day was very accommodating to say the least. She approached our table to refill glasses more than multiple times while she continued to give excellent service to her other customers. She was also extremely pleasant and smiled and listened intently to our requests. She continued to bring warm bread when we finished what was on our table. She was far above an average waitress. The ambience was warm and inviting. This evening was made pleasant and more than served our needs. I shall return.

About the restaurant

Inspired by a hilltop town of palaces, vineyards and poets, Ariccia Cucina is a modern Italian escape. Small plates of arancini and fresh bruschetta to share, herbs tucked into slow-roasted porchetta, vino bianca and rosso on the tables, conversations buzzing and glasses clinking—at long last, a taste of authentic Italy. Our large open kitchen invites you into an exciting culinary world. The cozy fireside lounge or bar are great places to relax after work with a delicious drink and appetizer from the Bar Menu. Or catch up with friends and enjoy beautiful weather with al fresco dining on the open-air patio.
