Excellent food and service. The host couldn't have been more polite and gracious. Our server was kind and attentive. The food was outstanding. Truly a hidden gem of the area.

We visited Aroma for brunch on Sunday. The dosa and chutney were yummy. Puris were crispy and delicious. My wife was super happy with the food service. Thanks to the owner and the server Sai for the warm welcome. Would visit again soon.

We stopped in today with the entire family and were not let down. The owners greeted us at the door and made us feel like we were the only table that mattered. The original cuisine was to die for and they even had the option to eat family style. Which made dining with children super easy. The restaurant has ample parking for many guests and the layout is fantastic with a banquet hall the right as you walk in and a casual dining room with table service to the left. The patio is very nice with a pergola and a small lounge off the side of it. Both bathrooms were neat clean and tidy with no debris laying about or water on the counters. The service was fantastic with us never having to ask twice for anything as well as most of our needs were anticipated. They were very well mannered and they made me feel at home. They had no problem omitting a topping from one of our meals and the drinks never emptied. Also, they have a very unique, homemade Rose ice cream. Yes! ROSE ICE CREAM that tastes out of this world! You need to check that out. All in all this was a wonderful experience and I look forward to going again. 10/10 HIGHLY recommend.

Hands down, the best Indian food in the area. Aromas butter chicken stays in my dreams, with lots of extra sauce sopped up with their garlic naan. The experience is divine. It’s clean, quiet, and cozy (unfortunate because it’s literally tucked in the back by the old Joe’s Crab Shack so you wouldn’t even SEE this gem from the street) with friendly wait staff ready to take your order. Don’t miss it

My husband and I enjoyed dinner here this evening. Not only was the food delicious, the staff was friendly and very knowledgeable. It was our first time ordering Indian food, and the waitress was very helpful in recommending dishes and answering our questions. The restaurant was beautiful and sparkling clean. In addition to the dining room, it has a lovely space for large parties, as well as a private room for small, intimate gatherings. We highly recommend Aroma Restaurant!

Aroma hands down has the best vindaloo and biriyani I’ve ever tried in the DMV! You can tell all the ingredients are fresh and flavorful and cooked to perfection! The service here is also impeccable and swift! There’s tons of parking so no need to worry and the owner is very sweet and accomodating.

The food was delicious and there was plenty to eat for all you can eat brunch. The biryani was very flavorful and I like that they had more than one option for vegetarian diners. Our waiter was extremely attentive and helped us very much!! Would definitely return!

The food and service were amazing. The staff were very attentive to our table and recommended dishes for us to try! The ambiance is relaxing and a beauty building. I can't wait to go back.
