Had a great experience here. The pasta is homemade and have a great texture. The fresh bread was delicious. The Poseidon mac and cheese had a great shrimp/crab/noodle ratio but didn’t taste cheesy, could have used a stronger cheese or a blend of cheeses perhaps. Still, very enjoyable experience.

What an amazing all around experience we’ve had here at Ariella’s! The quality of the food is bar none. You can’t get anything like it anywhere else in the bowling green/russellville area. The colossal crab in the fettuccine with Parmesan cheese sauce was exquisite. The gazpacho was made from vine ripened tomatoes picked this morning and all the fresh veggies spooned on top were divine. I enjoy a martini with my meal and it was delicious and very reasonably priced. If anyone writes a negative review on this restaurant for any reason, they do not know current prices for quality food. The staff is always so helpful and attentive. The atmosphere is unique as it is in a historic building. Ariella’s is definitely worth the drive for us.

My third visit to Ariella. A delicious birthday celebration for hubby and me! We started with the Crabcake appetizer to share. As always, it was perfectly delicate breading filled with large lumps of fresh, sweet crab. The sauce is just spicy enough to excite without being overly hot. Then, we shared the Lobster Bisque. The texture is light, the flavor is full. The special of the night was Wagyu Filet with Scallop. Both his King cut and my Queen cut were served with mashed potatoes, roasted tomato, pepper and onions. We both selected the asparagus. Everything was perfection. Our steaks were truly, tenderly rare. Wagyu was an indulgence we enjoyed, as everything in our meal was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. Service was prompt and attentive, with never an empty glass. We splurged on dessert to celebrate. His Carrot Cake satisfied a sweet craving, and I enjoyed, once again, coffee and Cannolis that remind me of the delicate treats I’ve enjoyed in larger cities. That’s not common in this area. In all, another fabulous Ariella dinner.

WOW!!! This place is AMAZING; THE BEST restaurant around. All the food is prepared fresh & is sooo flavorful. The owner/operator Deborah is an accomplished chef & her entire staff is wonderful. We have tried several different menu items & everything is delicious! The gazpacho (cold soup) was something new we had never had & what a delight! Perfect appetizer for summer with the best fresh vegetables….once again, a real jewel for a great dining experience. We drive from Hopkinsville KY & recommend this place to EVERYONE!! Thank you Ariella’s for a wonderful dining experience….Lisa & Terry Rustin

We had heard good things about this restaurant from our friends and decided to give it a try. As soon as we sat down I immediately commented about the questionable service. The host didn’t even greet us just said “two people?” And then walked over to a table, placed two menus and took the extra silverware without another word. He continued to be this unwelcoming/borderline rude throughout our meal. We ordered 2 appetizers, my husband had never tried anything like either of them at any restaurant before. He ended up not liking the shrimp cocktail and sent it back. I had the tomato bruschetta which was delicious. For our main meals we got the turkey wrap and the Alfredo with crab meat. My wrap was giant, packed full, and pretty good overall. My husband got the Alfredo which is a dish he commonly gets when we go out. The portion was giant and there was a good amount of crab in it. Unfortunately the sauce had virtually no flavor and he didn’t care for it. Our server was very sweet. She took my husbands food off our bill after noticing he wasn’t eating it. She made some cocktails for us that were also delicious. While waiting for a box for my wrap and a cheesecake to go, an older woman who I could only assume was the cook or owner came out and informed my husband he was no longer welcome at the establishment due to wasting $50 of food. She also accused him of “not knowing what he was ordering” which was not the case especially for the main meal. We offered to pay for all the food that was sent back but she continued to inform us we would not pay for the food but not to come back. Ironic because the food was not good enough for us to ever want to go back.
I worked in food service at different restaurants/catering from the time I was 17-25. In that time I have NEVER seen any restaurant worker/owner be that rude and unprofessional to customers for simply not liking the food. The customer is always right.
Our server was really the best part of our experience there and we were sure to tip her on what the bill would have been. I just hope she doesn’t have to share that money with anyone else there.
