    This restaurant is truly exceptional! The food was absolutely delicious, with the lamb kebabs standing out as my personal favorite. The dessert was equally delightful, and every aspect of the experience—from the warm and welcoming staff to the inviting atmosphere—was outstanding. My kids had a fantastic time, making it a great spot for families as well. For coffee lovers, I highly recommend the iced Turkish coffee—it was phenomenal. The cocktails were expertly crafted, and the sweet-and-sour prawns were simply incredible. Every dish was a perfect 10 out of 10. A huge thank you to Mike and Fera for an unforgettable dining experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food, great vibes, and top-notch hospitality!

    My group dined at Arya Steakhouse to celebrate a mix of celebrations. We had a phenomenal experience and will return in the future. Managing the reservation was hassle free, as the restaurant staff are attentive and work hard to ensure an amazing experience. The food was absolutely delicious, and our server Edwin was thorough, patient, and knowledgeable. Arya also excelled at all the smaller details as well, and was very generous with helping us with our cake cutting and presentation. A huge thanks to the Arya team for this experience, highly endorse them for your next intimate dinner or group celebration.

    We went to Arya as a work dinner and to enjoy their amazing Persian food. We chose the Lamb shanks, Chicken & Beef combos, Pistachio Meatballs, Eggplant Dip, Bread and Feta Cheese platter.. and it was all delicious. We ended with the Persian ice cream that came incased in an ice sculpture. Loved it all and we'll definitely return!

    One thing that stood out and the biggest thing to my girlfriend and I was the customer service. The customer service was outstanding above and beyond. Our waiter, Max was so attentive and made sure we was taken care of properly our hostess checked on us multiple times and suggested the lamb chops, which were amazing. We will be back.

    The hummus and spreadable eggplant dip appetizers were excellent. Our family ordered the tomahawk steak and were astounded at the deliciousness - could be best steak ever. We also ordered a ribeye (excellent) and a kabob (that person was disappointed he didn't order a steak...but satisfied). We will return - could be our new go-to steakhouse!

    My partner and I came to Arya to celebrate our anniversary. Max was a great server. The drinks - specifically, the smoky and bonded old fashioned, was fantastic. We had the Dungeness crab cake appetizer, the shirazi salad, the dry aged ribeye with the garlic butter sauce, and the red velvet salmon. It was ALL delicious. We left full and very happy. Also took a piece of baklava cheesecake to go, and it was yummy an hour later. Highly recommend.
