   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.

   This is our favourite restaurant in Dorking and it never disappoints and we booked a table to celebrate my husband's birthday. The meal was absolutely delicious and the wine especially nice and we had a wonderful time and some great conversation with Michael, who served us. Thank you for making this occasion such a memorable and lovely one. 😊 👍

   We had a wonderful experience during a Sunday lunch celebrating a family birthday. The service and atmosphere were great and food simply delicious. It was our second time at Aroma and we will be back. Thank you Aroma.

   Poor service overall. Some choices for main coarse not available. Waiting a long tome for main course and not warm. Chicken escalopes was particularly poor. Insufficient vegetables. Poor meals overall not the standard of previous visits.

    Good Italian-style food. Dislike 12.5% Discretionary Service Charge. Also heating turned off prior to our departure.
