Fantastic experience in the MO.
We really enjoyed the dishes and could not have had a better experience. Even though it was late September we were able to sit outside and enjoy the stunning view. All dishes were outstanding and the service was perfect. We will definitely be back!

Stunning setting overlooking the lake, intimate lighting. Excellent service, and the food a beautiful balance of flavors and contrasts. Everything was impeccably cooked, with light pairings that enhanced the quality of the food. We followed their advice and shared the dishes: lobster, monkfish, salmon, baby squid, asparagus, and the Aria salad.

An excellent experience at the ARIA restaurant at the Mandarin in Como.
Superlative food quality.
The real highlight? The staff. Attentive to every need. Precise and punctual, and always ready to fulfill every wish.
A heartfelt thank you to Fabio for his welcome, the explanation of each dish, and his attention to detail.
Thanks also to Giulia, Sonali, and the entire staff.
I will definitely be back.
Highly recommended!
Very convenient parking.

We chose this restaurant inside the Mandarin Oriental Hotel for our anniversary.
The service, welcome, atmosphere, and food were all wonderful. You feel like every detail has been perfectly crafted to make you feel comfortable and special.
We ordered a great deal, both from the appetizers and the main course. We made sure to ask for the chef's recommendations when ordering. They were happy to help if you asked.
It's a restaurant that prioritizes seafood. The gold details on the table were also beautiful. Even the chopsticks were gold-detailed. We loved it. The menu image was a special watercolor painting.
We were very pleased with everything we ate. I highly recommend it for a special, elegant, romantic, and delicious night.
We started our meal with the sunset over Lake Como and enjoyed our dessert in the moonlight. Since it was our anniversary, "happy anniversary" was written on the dessert as a special treat. The entire meal cost 216 euros, which is a reasonable price considering the quality of the service and the venue.
Thank you so much.

As noted in other reviews, the location is top-notch, the food good but not superb. Panzanella without bread, and the Tuscan in me seethes against the chef's free hand. The wagyu gunkan and king crab are excellent, although the quality/price ratio is very uneven. Service... the staff is young, friendly, but quite distracted and never attentive. In short... there's a lot of room for improvement for a restaurant of this caliber.

What an unforgettable evening at the L'ARIA restaurant at the MANDARIN ORIENTAL hotel on the shores of Lake Como! The setting is absolutely splendid.
The dishes were remarkably refined and fine: the grilled salmon sushi was delicate, the Black Angus incredibly tender, and the coconut dessert, a truly stunning trompe-l'oeil, was the perfect finishing touch.
The welcome and service were, unsurprisingly, worthy of this exceptional venue. A culinary experience to be repeated without hesitation.

My recent dining experience at L˜ARIA was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was inviting and sophisticated. The food was exquisite – each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. However, what truly elevated our evening was the outstanding service we received.
In particular, I would like to extend a special thank you to Sonali Choudhury. Her attentiveness, warmth, and genuine care made us feel incredibly welcome and well-looked after. She was knowledgeable about the menu, offered excellent recommendations, and ensured that every aspect of our meal was perfect. Sonali's professionalism and friendly demeanor are a real asset to L˜ARIA.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at L˜ARIA and will certainly be returning. Thank you for a memorable experience, and thank you again to Sonali for her exceptional service!
