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.

    Loved the Crispy potatoes and Double pepperoni pizza. Great Brut too! Our waitress, Noks was wonderful too. So friendly and made the experience very pleasant.
