Today I had lunch for the first time at ARYA Steakhouse. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent. Michael (L.) our server and Mike the owner were very welcoming. Can't wait to go back with the whole family.

Went to Arya Steakhouse for Eid with my family, and it was really nice experience! They were accommodating, especially with our stroller, we were able to be seated outside. The lamb shank I tried was delicious, and so were the rice, garlic fries, and mashed potatoes. My wife loved the chicken kebab. Our server Michael was very nice, always making sure we had enough water, and food arrived at reasonable time. It's a good spot for Eid, all halal and very tasty. I was so full, I joked about needing help to get home. Definitely recommend it.

Went here before with my colleagues and had a wonderful work dinner. Last night was a different experience. First time at this restaurant I had an amazing time. The second time I took my wife and the experience was very disappointing and did not live up to pervious expectations. The restaurant was not busy and the waitress that had taken care of us had not checked up on us when we received our food and we did not have a knife to cut our steak. We sat for a while not eating because we did not have a steak knife. Another waiter brought us a knife after my wife's food had gotten cold. I do not expect this kind of service in Palo Alto or in a restaurant with these prices.

came here for lunch and it was excellent! the manager came and spoke to us personally (he's so so nice) and our server, michael, was very accommodating. We went to eat at their redwood city location years ago and the new palo alto location is even better! great ambiance, nicely decorated and the quality of food is still a 10/10!! my husband and i split the dry aged ribeye (medium rare - COOKED PERFECTLY), garlic mashed potatoes and crab cakes. all of it was SO GOOD. will definitely be back!

We were there for dinner and I am disappointed with their service and high prices considering the average quality of the food. There were three waiters coming to our desk and asking if we want more. It felt like they were pushing to order more, which was really uncomfortable and disappointing. I wish they change their culture and have decent prices or improve food quality.

I took my goddaughter here for her birthday. The lamb chops were off the hook. Then I went to get a massage in Palo Alto because I was visiting from out of town the next day and I took a different friend here for lunch . It was just as good and the waiter actually remembered me from the night before. I would definitely go here again.

We came here for a family Birthday lunch. The food, service and ambiance here was top quality. We ordered the salmon kebab, chicken kebab dishes, sabzi, and eggplant dishes. DELICIOUS! I love the new Palo Alto location too off on University Ave. We will be back soon!!

The food is usually good, and the service is really satisfying. Michael did his best to make us feel happy during the new year. It's a bit pricey though.

On Easter Sunday, we dined at Arya Steakhouse in Palo Alto and were delighted by the exceptional food and top-notch service. Thank you Michael and Vino for making our day so memorable. I savored the lamb shank while my husband enjoyed the lamb chops, followed by a delectable butter pudding dessert. Vino's suggestion of trying the 48oz tomahawk steak on our next visit has us eagerly anticipating our return, this time with friends to share in the experience! Fantastic food and delightful service! Come out and support our local restaurants, they are the backbone of the community! For your next special occasion make a reservation at Arya, you won’t be disappointed!

Had a wonderful Easter dinner with my family tonight. The food was delightful, but what truly made the evening memorable was the exceptional service we received. Jonathan, our waiter and bartender, was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable. His fantastic cocktails added to the experience. We look forward to returning!

A pleasant restaurant but busy. It was not a great start as we were sat at our table, many servers just passed by. It was understandable for a Friday evening. However, once we were attended, our server, Jonathan was warm and friendly. We started with calamari and bone marrow. The side salad was well prepared. I was happy for its taste and presentation. The cowboy steak, combo of lamb and beef, and paella were great and our favorites. At the end of our meal, I was impressed that the restaurant have someone who took care of our left over for take home. Overall, Arya delivered its friendliness, ambience, and quality of food. Try it out, I'm sure you will find something to try and experience the lovely team.
