Ariana Restaurant Bend Reviews
Okay fare
A kind of passive aggressive charm, pricy with fairly reasonable service. For food in its price range I would consider it average.
We ordered the chefs tasting menu.
The flavors and textures are works of art. We dined for 2 hours and were full by the end. After trying most of Bends fine dining options, Ariana is as close to a "Michelin star" quality as you will get. The main dining room gets pretty loud... so opt for the heated patio if available.
Husband booked our reservation as a surprise dinner for our
Husband booked our reservation as a surprise dinner for our anniversary and the experience was phenomenal from start to finish. We had the chef's dinner with the reserve wine pairing and every dish was above and beyond. Service was warm and attentive, and the wine pours made the pairing well worth its cost. Highly recommend adding the bone marrow like we did if you do the chef's tasting menu. So delicious! Will for sure be back for future special occasions.
Fantastic date night evening with great service, we
Fantastic date night evening with great service, we couldn't have asked for more from any aspect of the night! The Chef's Tasting Menu was unbelievable and every course was carefully thought through - the textures and balance of flavor was unbelievable. My partner (who has a history of hating kale) said that the kale salad was the best salad he ever had. The minted pea puree is something I might have dreams about, alongside the ramp-dungeness crab risotto. The wine pairings were also amazing - I was able to try new wines that I wouldn't typically choose. The knowledge of our server was unbelievable with every single item brought to our table.
We had a great date night.
Did the chef tasting and paired with wine. Sat at the bar. Just a wonderful night. Food is fantastic and service is great. Get a reservation as it's tough to get into!

Quite possibly the best food I've ever had in my life, make the reservation now, you won't regret it.

Charging 15 dollars in order for someone to even become your customer is very poor customer service. There are other ways to secure you bookings and not punish your customers for preferring your business . We madereservatio s elsewhere.
Ariana is one of the best dining experiences I've had in a
Ariana is one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long line of excellent dining experiences. The service was warm and informative. The building is cozy and beautiful. And the food is next level. We got the tasting menu and it was beyond worth it. Our favorite was the scallop in caramelized onion soup. The Wagyu beef course was also spectacular. Bend is a special place to visit and dining at Ariana was a highlight.
Incredible but expensive....
The service at Ariana was exceptional! Remember that going to Ariana means "DINING", not chowing down. Very leisurely. Yes, it is expensive BUT the experience is sublime. The food from beginning to end was marvelous with layered flavors and surprises. I went with seafood and enjoyed it all. Beverage service was excellent with some great choices in both by the glass to bottles. This is definitely an 'event' experience. I would especially recommend this restaurant as romantic destination but maybe not in the main dining room. It can get a little loud.
It's not that Ariana has bad food.
It is very good, just not very interesting. Unfortunately the menu never seems to change. A few of the dishes seem old fashioned (heavy meats, reliance on cream in the sauces). I wish the chefs would take it up a notch and prepare more Mediterranean fare rather than resting on stodgy "classics". But, this is only my opinion. One other thing I don't like (which started during COVID-19) is the fact you have to pay a deposit when you make reservations. WTF?!
Always great, staff is super!! Ambience is excellent and
Always great, staff is super!! Ambience is excellent and the food is great. Only problem is getting a reservation - Good Luck!!
We've been to Ariana twice and would put it at 4 stars
We've been to Ariana twice and would put it at 4 stars grading on a curve for Bend, but 3 stars solely on its merits alone. Our most recent visit was on New Year's Eve. We had the tasting menu for $275pp . The amuse bouche was nice. The focaccia was rather flat. The first course of salmon tartare was good, if not earth shattering. Second course was beet carpaccio which was good, not memorable. Third course was the best of the meal: mussel bisque. It was absolutely delicious. If only the other courses were half as tasty as this one. The fourth and fifth courses were disappointing: The fourth was octopus in a chili sauce so hot it was difficult to eat and completely overtook the delicate octopus flavor. The fifth was a foie gras dumpling in an extremely salty dashi which also took over the dish. The sixth was the steak course, which was well cooked to medium rare (sous vide) with a rather bland potato hash brown. Dessert was ice cream - nothing very special given the occasion. No post dessert or bon bons were offered which seemed stingy for the price and occasion. Service was fine, but had a couple hiccups. We were seated in the "pavilion" which was on the porch, not the best for a winter night, and has zero ambiance, looking the taqueria across the street, but fine, we can deal with that if the food is amazing. We ordered a round of cocktails and then wine to follow. The wine was brought out and poured about 5 minutes into our cocktails which we were only just into by then. Also timing with courses and wine could have been better. I hate to write a meh review, but I just thought to add our experience, which seems to differ from others'. Also a word of advice to double check they don't put you in the "pavilion" aka porch. When I booked online, the "pavilion" seating was not explained. Had I understood, I would not have booked. We spend a lot of time in Bend and the search continues for a restaurant worthy of a special occasion :/
It was a beautiful birthday dinner at Ariana Restaurant.
The service was kind, warm, and welcoming. We were seated immediately and offered drink recommendations. I started with the house take on a margarita. There's a pre-fix but I opted for a la carte. To start, I had the radicchio salad. This was incredible. I would love to eat this again and again. It was like a Caesar salad but better (I know!!!). I like more things in my salad and you won't find store croutons in this salad. Not pictured is a mushroom soup that was also tasty. There was an option to add a scallop to the top of the soup, so fancy! Then the next course was scallops ($42) and black cod ($35). The scallop was cooked to perfection and the rice was fragrant with saffron and a hint of garlic. It was light and decadent. The black cod was my favorite. It was herbaceous and melted in my mouth. It's the best black cod I've ever had. This was an outstanding birthday meal. I didn't settle for one dessert. I needed two! The passionfruit was bright and fun to eat. The cocoa nib meringues were light and crunch like flavored clouds. The mini birthday cake made me feel like a kid again. It tasted like birthday cupcakes I had during school parties. I wrapped it all up with a glass of bubbly. I am an adult after all. Cheers to all the work that goes into this restaurant. I could taste the passion and care. Thank you for a wonderful meal and celebration.
Amazing!
We so enjoy great food with unique flavor combinations and Ariana knocked it out of the park! Best Bone Marrow we’ve ever had. The Lamb Neck and Black Cod were cooked to perfection. Alisa took great care of us at the bar with in-depth menu knowledge, gracious service and spot on wine recommendations.

Ariana has been a Bend favorite for a long time! I definitely recommend their Chef five course meal along with wine pairings. Best place for a celebration! Birthdays, anniversaries, any special occasion. Incredible food and wine!

At the top of the list for fine dining in Bend, Oregon is Ariana. Located on Galveston on Bend's West side Ariana is a long time favorite. A wonderful ambiance compliments the outstanding cuisine and extraordinary service. Reservations are highly recommended.
Always our first choice
We've probably visited Ariana's a half dozen times when we've visited friends in Bend. It's dependably excellent. The ambiance, service and food compares with other top restaurants we've patronized. There's a wonderful range of choices, the presentation is artful and the service attentive, very skilled and helpful. Our only disappointment? When we can't get a reservation.

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Ariana Restaurant Bend at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Ariana Restaurant Bend page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Ariana Restaurant Bend to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Ariana Restaurant Bend!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
