Great food, great service, a little cold temperature wise, and a little on the noisier side, so if you want, ask for a quieter table.

Had a very good overall experience at Arya Steakhouse. The food was delicious and well-prepared, and the service stood out as exceptional—attentive, friendly, and professional throughout. The ambiance was inviting and comfortable, making it a great setting for a night out. Value for the experience was average to good, though the noise level was a bit on the higher side, especially during peak dinner hours. Definitely a place I’d return to, and recommend for both casual dinners and special occasions.
