Inspired by a hilltop town of palaces, vineyards and poets, Ariccia Cucina is a modern Italian escape. Small plates of arancini and fresh bruschetta to share, herbs tucked into slow-roasted porchetta, vino bianca and rosso on the tables, conversations buzzing and glasses clinking—at long last, a taste of authentic Italy. Our large open kitchen invites you into an exciting culinary world. The cozy fireside lounge or bar are great places to relax after work with a delicious drink and appetizer from the Bar Menu. Or catch up with friends and enjoy beautiful weather with al fresco dining on the open-air patio.

    The food for the Thanksgiving dinner was excellent. The cost was far too high however ($80). It was not clear at booking what the cost would be and if there were any options beside the buffet. The service added on (20%) was outrageous for a table of two. If it were a large group, I could see 18%. Anyway, the service was not all that great ... it was adequate but not worth $32 for two people. It was not clear what would come with the dinner ... was there a drink included or coffee at the end? Nothing was explained and I could not find information on line besides the menu.

    When I made the reservation I did not know that our 2 pm reservation was at the end of the lunchtime meal. We arrived promptly at 2 pm, were seated, and ordered drinks. The drinks were served and we went thru the buffet line. You could tell it was the very end of the lunchtime serving by the low quantity and quality of food items (ham was excessively fatty as was the prime rib).

    Our server Noah and the Manager were great. Fun, warm ambience - we love the hotel. It seemed like the kitchen was struggling to get the food out on time - some back n forth between runners and the head chef for the hour we were there
