Ariel Modern Italian is the culmination of years of passion for industry and product. Napoli meets New York in this beautiful iteration of the local Italian eatery. Sourcing only the finest Italian products available, we have created a reminiscence of European street dining. Wind down your afternoon in style with our incredible Neapolitan pizzas, pastas and some of our classic cocktails. Ariel is a dedication to the simple elegance of Italian cuisine and while we may not be traditional, we pay homage to what it means to eat a good meal with good people. Friends, togetherness, celebration and joy - at Ariel you are right where you meant to be.

    We chose to eat at Ariel for our last dinner in Cape Town before leaving the following evening to go home. As with the previous 2 visits everything was fantastic - food, service and ambience. Can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. We're expecting to be back in Cape Town next year and we will definitely be eating there again.

    Hi Andy, what a special way to end your trip - thank you for choosing us for your last dinner in Cape Town 🤍. It means so much to know that each of your visits has been consistently fantastic. We can’t thank you enough for the high recommendation, and we’ll be counting down to welcoming you back on your next Cape Town visit. See you next year.

    My risotto was very rich with too much truffle oil or garlic so couldn’t finish it but service was good
