Disappointing! Over priced! Impersonal! $1200 for dinner and still hungry, don’t waste your time and money!

The value offering falls far short of the minimum expectations one would expect from such a brand. Only the Somelier and the wine were up to par. Waygyu does not justify its price as much by the quality of the product which was questionable as...by the mastery of its cooking. What a shame, Australian waygyu has such flavor when its cooking is mastered. Terribly below standards for this price range and this type of restaurant.More

Table overlooking the opera house … impeccable food and fabulous wine! Not inexpensive but worth every penny. Perfection!!

We went here and had the two course lunch for 120 ASD per head, which, given the quality of the food, was excellent value for money. We booked in advance from the UK so we were fortunate to get a table with a direct view...of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. The whole experience was unforgettable. Wine was excellent, the service was excellent, and the food was excellent. Nothung more to say. Would definitely want to return and would recommendMore

We had an incredible experience at Aria. The food was fantastic and beautifully presented but what made the evening so special was our lead server Ellen. She was fantastic, so warm and friendly and knowledgeable about the food. She was responsive to our requests and...really made the night a positive experience.More

Restaurant Aria is in my opinion is the most amazing restaurant in Sydney. We tried many top restaurants whilst on a long vacation to Australia. None surpassed Aria. Service is first class. Staff extremely friendly. The position of this restaurant in the shadow of the...Opera House is awesome. Try the tasting menu you wont be disappointed it was outstanding.More

We celebrated my daughters 21 family birthday dinner . It was really beautiful and the dishes were amazing and the staff and very friendly. It was a truly wonderful experience thank youMore

Exquisite in every sense! Food and service totally outstanding. View unbeatable. The best dining experience I’ve ever had. The cost was actually cheap compared with the experience we had.

This was supposed to be the best dining experience of our vacation. Instead, it has become an inside joke because it was some of the worst food we have ever had. It started with the amuse-bouche that we had to spit out. We did have...fun watching the expressions of others who had their amuse-bouche after us. I am not a foodie and I'm generally not picky about food. But even I could only eat one of the courses in our meal because the rest of the courses were some variation of eating a stick of butter with salt and spices mixed in. On a positive note, the service was really nice despite the fact that we didn't eat the food. They ended up charging us less, although it was still very expensive. I would obviously never, ever go back to this restaurant and I can't understand all the positive reviews. Maybe we were there on an off night. We did end up with a good memory in a way for the absolute worst food we have ever had in a restaurant.More

We celebrated my sister's birthday over a wonderful luncheon at Aria. The view looking over the Opera House adds a sense of drama and occasion. We enjoyed the 4-course option and every part of this was delicious. Some standouts were the cheese choux Amuse Bouche...as well as the duck along with the passionfruit dessert. The room was stylish whilst being comfortable. Service was professional, warm and helpful. Vicki the sommelier did an amazing job in selecting drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) that matched our menu selections. The quality of everything was outstanding without a hint of pretentiousness. I look forward to returning very much.More

The pre theatre menu was creative and inspired. The staff, of which there were many, were all helpful and very welcoming. The sommelier offered good advice and was very knowledgeable.

The experience was everything I would expect from a highly rated fine dining venue and I have been to quite a few globally
