A lovely dining experience at Aria for our birthdays. We had the tasting menu for $270pp. Food was tasty and all the waitstaff were lovely. Highlights for us were the appetisers, Peking duck consomme, and the chocolate dessert.
For some of my guest in this group, this was their first experience dining and I think you ticked the box for one of the best meals of their life. My mother who has spent her entire life in the restaurant industry, didn’t even have one complaint which never happens. She ate everything gleefully and with total enjoyment, so thank you and compliments to the chefs and staff for making this truly a treat and a memory we will never forget. I’m so happy we went with the truffle menu. One of our guest was a vegetarian and her dishes looked too good to even eat. Artistry at its best in presentation. I’m not much of a dessert person and the chocolate dessert was so delicious and interesting in texture and taste. Wines we selected and that were suggested were very nice. If I could give Michelin stars, this would get at least two, but probably really deserves three. That’s how amazing the meal and experience was.
One of MY Best Fine Dinning Experiences I've had for my 29th Birthday.

This pace is wonderful so is the food. I went for our anniversary and did requested the best view for our special day and the restaurant gave the incredible table with a view of both darling harbour and opera house. We really had a good quality time.
I had an amazing birthday dinner at Aria on a Monday night. Service was amazing as always - sommelier recommended perfect wines to match our foods and our preferences. Food was incredible, portions were generous for fine dining and presented beautifully. Standouts were definitely the scallop hot entree and duck main course. Thank you Aria for making my birthday so memorable!
My partner and I went to celebrate our engagement ceremony at Aria. Must I say, the food is amazing! The Quail dish is a must, as well as the scallop! Also - thank you to Ellen who was perfect for helping us out with navigating the menu and making our night super special!
I love dumplings so much! The soup is very delicious, very similar to the beef soup in Chinese cuisine. The lamb chops are cooked just right, very tender and delicious, and the scallops are fried just right, I like it very much. The bread is okay, the service is good, the meal time is probably more than two hours, hurry up, the scenery is perfect. Very high-end restaurant, five stars.
The, honestly, most perfect dining experience I have ever had.
Mikaela, you are a gem, the knowledgeable Somelier as a performance artist.
I do not say this in any way to disparage or denigrate your knowledge or the selection of premium wines to accompany the tasting menu. The thought, time, presentation, into the little things not always noticed, staff ratio, quality of glasses, plates, service, let alone the menu and preparation.
I can't fault anything, and I'm not joking. Without parallel, it is the best dining experience I have ever had.
Thank you.
You have made my trip to Sydney more than worthwhile. Equal to spending time with an overseas friend, my visit from Adelaide has been made perfect by spending Saturday night at Aria.
Thank you again
