Wow best restaurant in this area for sure! What an inviting atmosphere and friendly staff. They really go above and beyond to make you feel at home. My Dad ordered the seafood linguine and he said it was the best he’s ever had! Ever 😮 Also I had the pesto chicken with GLUTEN FREE linguine. So happy they have gluten free pasta options and they are DELICIOUS sauces. Chicken was cooked to perfection and the seasoning was on point. As a starter appetizer we both had the house salad. Mine with balsamic dressing and my Dad’s was with ranch. We both thoroughly enjoyed the salads and they had lots of fresh ingredients! Can’t say enough good things about this restaurant. Will be back!
We went there for the first time since it opened over 1 year ago. It was worth the wait. I called about an hour before and made a reservation to make sure we could be seated. Glad I did because if filled up quickly for dinner. The waitress was kind and attentive. Right away they brought fresh bread (two varieties, both delicious) with oil & vinegar with crushed garlic. Also, delicious! I ordered the ribeye with 2 Au Gratin potatoes instead of the veggies. They were excellent and the steak was aged and cooked perfectly. She had the salmon which was fantastic as well. We had a glass of wine each which paired perfect with our meal. The owner, Mario was sincere, personable and friendly. He came to our table a few times which was very nice. We were too full for dessert but will make an effort the next time we come here...for sure! I highly recommend Aroma's for the food, service, and ambiance. Definitely worth the time and $$$. Cheers!
Welcome to Ben Lomond’s yummy, new-ish spot! Friendly and attentive service from the moment we walked in until we left last night. It was also packed- a good sign! We enjoyed Irish Coffee & wine at the full bar, then sat, warm and cozy near the fire. Owner Mario spent a generous amount of time with us making sure we were happy with our meal, which we most definitely were! He also let us know Taco Tuesdays started up recently so we’ll be back for that! Tortilla soup, chowder were super yummy and fried artichokes app also delicious!! Looking forward to going back to experience the paella, desserts and more!
Excellent food, eclectic and well executed, flavors texture and ingredients choices all well curated. Chef owner was attentive, warm and welcoming. Live music was phenomenal. Great place for a date or special occasion. Not overpriced. Recommend early reservation, fills up fast.
I chose this restaurant for a Valentines weekend dinner with my husband based on the good reviews however, we were not impressed. The atmosphere was cozy, the fireplace was nice. The service was OK, The food was overpriced for the quality and amount. We waited 45 minutes for our food after we ordered. I ordered the chicken Parmesan. The one small chicken breast was dry and rubbery, it also came with scalloped potatoes and broccoli which weren't cooked well and we're still hard and lacked flavor, so i didn't eat them. I ate the chicken but it was an expensive $28 piece of chicken. My husband had the pork chops he gave it an 4/10. The pork chop gravy tasted like it came from a can. There were no sides like rice or vegetables with his dish. Just a bowl of meat and too much gravy. Parts of the pork looked pink. He didn't finish it. No one refilled our water or asked if we needed anything or how the food was. When we were done we had to wait for our check, our server disappeared. Also during dinner the door to the outside porch seating area was left open many times and it was freezing inside. Not a great experience. I left there still hungry after only eating the one small chicken breast. My husband got a stomach ache later that night. We won't be going back.
