Update 6-22-23: Ariana’s is permanently closed. The owner announced that. It’s a tragedy that the locals couldn’t keep it going as it was the best!! Sad for the staff and owner. Will miss is a LOT. ————-////—————- Ariana’s is my favorite Italian Restaurant anywhere - their red sauce is fantastic - fresh, amazing texture, and taste. The Veal (and Chicken) Parm are my favorites. Very reasonable prices, (low to me!) and great service. Owner Yvonne is very friendly and accommodating. Her assistant Jane is fantastic too. I’ve been coming here almost since they opened for special occasions (didn’t live close by, but well worth the trip). Always great.
On my girlfriend Andrea's recommendation I went here for the first time and was wowed! I ordered the Frutti di Mare and my beautiful partner ordered the Salmon special. Our server, Yvonne, was extremely gracious, offered us a glass of house wine and brought some warm delicious bread with a basil garlic infused olive oil that was amazing. I read some other reviews and one of the criticisms was the wait time. Andrea and I go to a lot of restaurants. If you want high quality food, you need to wait for it to be prepared. We were not disappointed. The food was outstanding. The bill was reasonable but the portions were ridiculously large (see picture). For $28 I received $50 worth of seafood. Lobster tail, scallops, shrimp, calamari, clams and mussels over a bed of linguine. As a rule I don't take food home, but I felt compelled to because I had, easily, another full meal left on my plate. I highly recommend!
So good. We went last weekend with the kids and went back tonight with friends. My Antipasto Evelina, Chicken Ariana, and Carrot Cake were amazing. Total perfection. They are all so welcoming. This is our new favorite place to go eat!!! Just go :-)
We went last weekend with our kids and it was so good we went back in tonight for dinner with friends. I had the mussels... omgosh... get the mussels!!! I had the Veal Ariana which was so perfect. Then I couldn't resist getting another canola like last Saturday. And Yvonne spent some time chatting with us about the journey of the restaurant and her puppies, Lily and Kai (sp?) Who doesn't love hearing about adorable pups??? My wife and I were in first time together last Saturday night. We went back tonight and a bunch of people knew us by name. It's so comfortable there!!! So good. So so so good!!! You can go anywhere to pay for food... at Arianas, it's a whole experience, and worth every minute and every dollar spent!!!...and then some. We will see you again soon!!!
When you walk into a place on a Friday night at 630, and it's virtually empty, especially with the post-Covid crowded restaurants everywhere, that speaks volumes. The server was very nice, but service was slow. The food was very, VERY basic. They need a decent chef. The desserts looked like they were off an ice cream truck (literally frozen pop top single serves for kids), and best of all, at the end of our meal, we were entertained by a field mouse running around the dining room floor. There's lots of Italian restaurants in strip malls that are outstanding, but this isn't one of them at all. EDIT: The owner needs to look at the Google reviews... the bad ones in particular and then lighten up on the blast back. If you're gonna blast back, at least be honest and blast everyone. It's just not a good restaurant. I'm sure it could be great, but it's just not. You're really sensitive to dissenting opinions. That speaks VOLUMES about you, Sir/Ma'am.
Had a nice dining experience with our friends tonight. I had the tilapia Mediterraneo which was excellent. Service was excellent and the atmosphere was very nice. Highly recommended
The staff is very polite and welcoming. Appetizers and bread came out quickly and tasted fabulous. We left full, not hungry because you got your moneys worth of food from your entree. The bathroom was also very clean and again everyone was very nice. If you are an Italian lover, I definitely recommend this restaurant!
Went here after a phillies playoff win and this place was also a home run. Best calamari we ever had. An appetizer alone could feed you. Big portions sizes and they really put care in each dish. Def my new italian go to spot.
