Excellent
Amazing! This restaurant is terrific. Great service, great bar, excellent food. Water view, outside seating. I highly recommend it. The owner, Ray Tang, is a real character. They do accept credit cards contrary to the description. I know they accept Visa, MC, and Discover, not sure about Amex or Diners.    [03 Feb 2003 19:38:47]

Great food
Great food. But watch out if you use your Entertainment card on Friday or Saturday.
They wanted to add on the tip even with under six in a group.    [26 Jan 2004 19:40:12]

I won't return
This used to be an excellent restaurant. I don't know if the decline is due to a change in chef or a change in menu.

When I went here about 1 year ago, I told my dining partner that I NEVER wanted to go back. I decided to make my mom happy and go there. The lack of cars in the parking lot should have been an indication to us to go somewhere else. I had the Angel Hair Pasta with Tomato, Basil and Walnuts. Once I tasted it, I remembered that it was the reason I did not want to return. It was greasy and had very poor flavor. I didn't eat and didn't even take it home for the dogs to eat. My mom had the Chicken Mediterranean. It was so rubbery, she couldn't even cut it.

With only four people in the restaurant, it took us forever to get our food and our bill. The other couple waited and waited and waited. They never got bread or their order taken. They walked out. My mom and I were happy for them, that they would be going somewhere else to get a good meal.

I wouldn't return, not even for a free meal. I don't know if the food is made ahead and reheated or what, but it was terrible.

I did enjoy the bread and the salad before dinner.    [25 Aug 2007 00:00:07]

Love Aroma
I love this place. I try and get there three to four times out of the year. Went for the Valentine's Dinner . . . six courses. Just great.    [05 Nov 2007 13:44:13]

Great Place
We all had a great time. Our drinks arrived promptly. Generous food with the wine. We ordered orange roughy, veal, chicken and salads. There could have been more seasoning. At least not salty. Service was prompt and staff was friendly and the price was reasonable. We enjoyed the evening and would go again with a bigger group.

P.S. They have outdoor seating, and I noticed an Early Bird menu, too.    [28 Jun 2008 20:55:00]
