    We were the only diners for lunch on a Saturday apart from one solo diner. When I booked I said it was a birthday celebration. The food was average. The lasagne was covered in oil. I mentioned this to the waiter, his response was "enjoy your meal". Very overpriced, small portions. We will not be returning. Overall,very disappointing. Not even offer a complimentary drink to celebrate a birthday. Staff lacked enthusiasm. No atmosphere in the restaurant. We paid £86.00 and left.

    What an excellent lunch we had today. The waitress was so amazingly helpful and deserves a huge GOLD STAR. Our food was very enjoyable. It was served hot and beautifully presented. The bread with the olives was something we would all go back for and apparently is baked on the premises. We did ask if chef could bake each of us a loaf to take away!!! Honestly it was fab.

    Thank you so much for your kind words, Heather! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed your lunch with us, especially the bread with olives – it’s always a hit! Your lovely comments about our service are greatly appreciated, and we’ll be sure to pass on your praise to the waitress. We’d love to bake you a loaf of bread next time, just let us know! We look forward to welcoming you again soon. Best regards, The AROMA Ristorante Italiano team
