Food was amazing & customer service. They’re doing renovations on the flower wall but I still had a great time with my date. 10/10 in my book. Dope vibes.

Absolutely amazing experience! We had dinner for 4 on a busy Saturday night, and were greeted warmly and sat promptly - great start! Enzo & Aaron took amazing care of us, and Robin the GM was so kind and made sure everything was top notch. From the focaccia & char tartar to the fresh pasta, branzino, lamb shank - and finishing with the crostata & torta bianca - WOW! Chef Alex and his team really know what they’re doing. Shout out to the bartender Kristen too - fantastic mocktails & pumpkin old fashioneds! I couldn’t recommend Aria more as an amazing locally owned and operated gem in uptown.

Jazmine was the absolute best waitress! Very polite and informative about the menu and specials! She had the best energy! When you go to Dream CLT ask for Jaz!!!! The food was delicious as well. I had the salmon bites and grits. Definitely would get it again.
