At first we were a bit put off that the wait was going to be over an hour but there looked like there were plenty of open tables. We assumed that there was a large party reserved. They offered us a table off the bar area that was better than most of the tables in the regular dining area. Great view of the people walking by and coming in to the restaurant. Our server, Dennis, was excellent. He was very attentive and courteous. It didn't feel like we were sitting at the bar at all. He even noticed when one of us dropped a utensil and came right over to check up on us. The food came out at a decent amount of time and was very good too. We hope to visit Aria again soon.
