Customer Review Summary
Desserts lead the praise, with one reviewer recalling the cheesecake and another calling the whimsical wonder perfectly balanced. A crayfish roll and a pork loin special also earn credit. Complaints are frequent, though: the breakfast buffet is called limited and not warm, the mac and cheese was oily, the sweet potato soup watery, and one found the grill mains came without a substantial side.

“Breakfast buffet Poor services, collected my food twice without confirming did I left the restaurant yet or not. Limited food choices with poor food quality, even the fruit juices are not using the fresh one.”

“Mixed feelings about the place, service & presentation was fine & my crayfish roll was great, but their mac and cheese was drowning in oil. Me & my partner were served relatively quickly despite the place only being run by 2 staff members & it being pretty busy. My crayfish roll was flavourful; from the bun to the sauce. With the crayfish roll being a highlight I had high hopes for my mac and cheese, however I was met with disappointment when I took a piece of the dish & immediately saw oil dripping from my fork. Other than the cheese giving the dish some flavour - I desperately needed some salt or black pepper to salvage the dish, even then it wasn't enough as the oil was too much and by the end of the experience my mouth felt like I've been gargling butter.”

“I didn't like it. The food was below average, but fast service. The fish was pretty much without the taste, and potatoes were OK. I was disappointed... The only service was polite and fast.”

“Absolutely amazing food, the desert I had (whimsical wonder) was amazing, perfectly balanced. The server we had was lovely although I couldn't quite understand him. The atmosphere was let down slightly by the bars music and guests sound across the lobby and the lack of people eating giving it a errey feel. I will warn you that the grill mains don't come with anything substantial (just a mushroom and some tomatoes) so you have to order a side if you want carbs. Also I suspect the other 1 star reviews are from the main restaurant which looked mediocre, with the breakfast being okay. Definitely not worth the price for breakfast in the hotel. Aroma however is one hundred percent worth the cost. I doubt I'll have a better meal this year.”

“A Culinary Masterpiece at Aroma! Recently had the pleasure of dining at Aroma, and it was an experience that I will not soon forget. The ambiance was warm and inviting, the service was impeccable, and the food was nothing short of extraordinary. We were particularly impressed by the chef's special, Pork Loin. The dish was a symphony of flavors and textures, each ingredient perfectly complementing the next. It was clear that the chef Vanecio had put a great deal of thought and passion into creating this dish. The Cheesecake at the end, I still remember the taste. Thanks again for the dessert, Vanecio. Our visit was an unforgettable culinary journey. I highly recommend Aroma to anyone seeking a top-notch dining experience. Visit you again :)”
