    Lovely first time dinner at Arden last night. From start to finish, all plates were thoughtfully developed - with terrific flavor compositions. We will definitely be back!

    The food was delicious. The waiters are friendly and helpful. We really liked to smoke ahi starter as well as the lamb chops and the fish dishes.

    Arden is a wonderful experience. Shareable plates of such variety and all of it so delicious. Attentive staff. Lots of space between tables. A lone musician performing lovely ballads and standards. I wish I had room for dessert. If you get there early for happy hour, try some half portions of shareables at the bar. Highlights: seared ahi - best I have ever had, venison tartare, shishito peppers, ahi poke, mushroom rice, zucchini bake.

    The food was innovative, fresh and delicious. If you are looking for something different then I suggest you give it a try. A fresh twist on familiar foods.

    The food was exceptional. And, we enjoyed ourselves. The restaurant concept from food to the space is good, it just wasn’t executed well. I’m not sure if it was that they were understaffed or not that well coordinated amongst the staff they had. The waiter was underwhelming and I think overwhelmed by managing the entire room. The manager was fantastic and provided lots of the backstory about the origins and production of the food… real farm to table. But somehow it just didn’t come together. I would go back because of the food with my fingers crossed the service was improved.

    I like the space overlooking the park. The service was good, but food was wildly overpriced and unremarkable. Ordered quite a few items: lamb popsicles, hamachi, Kampachi, brussel sprouts, romaine, tomatoes (plus at least one more dish I can’t remember) and left hungry (!) but with a $430 bill; four people and only one person drinking - two glasses of wine. As for quality, nothing I ordered was exceptional. It’s frankly hard to even remember what I ordered. I’m sorry to say my experience was overpriced, under-portioned and underwhelming.
