We had our company holiday party for the second year at Aribella's and it was a great event. The staff is lovely, the atmosphere beautiful and the food is delicious.
This place has to have new owners. It's gotten so awful. I ordered food recently - eggplant rollatini (which used to be the best around) and mashed potatoes. The eggplant rollatini was so bad. Super salty, cut very thick, not in love with the sauce. That wasn't the worst part. The worst part was that there was a very very long piece of PLASTIC BAG IN THE MASHED POTATOES. I didn't see it before putting it in my mouth, I felt it once it was too late and I almost choked. I had to pull it out of my throat!! They also tasted very sour. Do you use lemon on them with the dairy? This incident happened one week ago and I haven't been able to write the review until now because I have been gagging at the thought of it since. I'm actually sorry to write this, it could have been an accident & I don't want to jeopardize someone's business, but come on. I would have called to have this conversation 1:1 to avoid sharing it publicly but I still can't even talk about what happened that night without gagging. Writing this is painful. Please be more careful.

Nice quiet atmosphere. Service was minimal and extremely slow. Food was good but nothing special. Two of us ordered the salmon which was good. The veal piccata was okay but nothing to rave about.

Very disappointing experience at best!!! Reservation made for 530pm this past Saturday to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary . We Arrived at 525pm and were promptly seated. The DR had very few diners on arrival but a large party was then seated. We Placed our order along with 2 cocktails shortly after reviewing the menu. Approx 25!mins later we were told by our waitress our dinners would be out shortly. We patiently waited but after 45 mins we signaled our waitress to complain about the long wait and the fact we were attending a show at 730pm. Our dinners arrived a few minutes later but my husbands dinner was cold. We advised the wait staff of this, asked them to take the dinner back and cancel that order as we did not have enough time to wait for another meal. Even though we cancelled the order A second meal was brought out within minutes ( we were told it had just been prepared for another diner ). Unfortunately there really was not enough time at this point to eat or enjoy our meals so we took them home. To add insult to injury the bill came and besides paying for a dinner we could not enjoy due to the "kitchen being understaffed" , We were charged $18 for a Kettle One martini and a Crown Royal Manhattan an "up charge based on premium brand and being served up". We also unfortunately arrived 15 mins late to our show and had to wait to be seated. All in all a pretty miserable evening for a special occasion. I feel the restaurant should avoid booking/seating large parties if the staffing is not adequate and should have made an effort to improve our experience so we might want to return in the future!
