    Wonderful views of the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge accompanied by delicious, beautifully presented meals with an extensive wine list. They also cater extremely well for pre and post theatre/concert meals or drinks.

    Reliable. A relatively safe premium menu. Efficient service. The food was prepared to perfection and the service was always attentive. However, we weren't wowed by our latest dining experience as we have been in the past. The premium pairing wines were a mixed bag and the tasting menu didn't include anything that really got the table talking. Overall the evening left us feeling like Aria has become a safe option for fine dining rather than an inspirational, gastronomic experience.

    Great food and impeccable service in a magnificent setting. The servers were knowledgeable and accommodating, ready to help with recommendations and opinions. The food was primarily locally sourced, creatively prepared, and beautifully presented. The wine list is extensive, by the glass, half or full bottle, with lots of Australian and international selections at all price points; the sommelier was ready to help with suggestions according to all tastes and preferences. Every table has a beautiful view of Sydney Harbor, often including the bridge or Opera House. Aria is expensive, but were looking for the perfect dining experience to complete our Australia vacation. Aria accomplished this for us.
