Restaurant Bio:

Our patrons have asked us this questions many times. So, here is our interpretation: According to Greek mythology, Ariana was the name for the Goddess of the Sea.  When Alexander the Great conquered the Persian Empire about 2500 years ago, some of his soldiers were thrilled about the mysteries of this conquered land and decided to settle on her north-eastern part. At that time this land was called “Ariana”.

Through out the course of history, different tribes invaded Ariana. Each tribe settled there and was replaced later on by another one. About 250 years ago, she was conquered by the Afghan tribes and her name was changed to Afghanistan. Until present time this country is called Afghanistan, even though she was invaded and ocupied by the former Soviet Union for 10 years, and recently by the taliban and Al Quaeda terrorists for another 8 years. 

We chose the name ”Ariana” for our restaurant in order to represent our blending of flavorful cuisines of the East to the familiar foods of the West. Just as Marco Polo who traveled through the silk route to China and brought back “mysterious” objects to the West, we decided to use the exotic spices and herbs of the old East into our flavorful cuisine.

At Ariana, we emphasize in the finest ingredients, natural flavors and healthy content of the foods we serve. We hope you enjoy our cuisine and we appreciate your comments, requests and compliments.

Posted on 02/26/2010 by: earlhamdr User Rating: 5 My family and I arrived for an early dinner Saturday night. Things were quiet, but as the evening went on the restaurant filled up. The food here was excellent. We were greeted with a lovely appetizer for the table (though a bit short on the bread). The portions were sized perfectly - just enough to fill your plate and stomach. We had chicken, lamb, and beef dishes. My sister is a vegan and was delighted that there was a dedicated menu featuring 7 different vegan items. She had the Garden Curry and enjoyed everything. The service was a little bit slow, especially for the time we arrived, and they did seem to be short on wait staff as the owner was also a server. She was pleasant though, and fairly attentive to our table. Definately would recommend this restaurant, and look forward to going back in the near future. Thanks for a delightful evening!
Posted on 04/14/2009 by: jbmef User Rating: 1 Restaurant was empty on a Saturday night. That should have been our cue to leave. The woman owner greeted us and sat us and took our order. My husbands appetizer came out. He ate it. The owner who was serving us decided she was going to sit with her family and friends in the back and eat dinner and neglect us. 15 minutes later, i asked a random waiter where my appetizer was. after waiting a total of 20 minutes, my appetizer was brought over and I told the waiter I did not want it. My husband alreay ate his 20 minutes ago. The female owner got up from her family dinner and threw the appetizer down and said I had to eat it because i ordered it. I told her that I no longer wanted it because we were ready for our meal and that had she continued to serve us like she was supposed to instead of sitting and eating with friends and family, my appetizer probably would have come out earlier. She started yelling at my husband and I so we asked for the check for the drinks we drank, paid and left. she was still yelling at us when we left the restaurant
