    Tomato bruschetta and deep fried olives to start were great. Disappointing ossobuco risotto as a main - meat tough and under cooked.

    Ariel Modern Italian responded on Wed 09 Apr 25:
    Hi Cherryl, thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry that certain items of your meal did not exceed your expectations. A gentle reminder, that we encourage all guests to speak to a manager on duty if they have any concerns during their visit. This allows us to address any issues immediately and ensure a satisfying experience. We will however, refer this to our chef to review and act upon accordingly. We are, however, so happy that you loved the Tomato bruschetta and olives.We hope you'll give us another opportunity to provide a seamless and enjoyable dining experience from start to finish.

    Shaz was just amazing. She knew all the products very well and could give us great recommendations. She was friendly, professional and fun to talk to without being over the top or intrusive. The food was amazing and we really enjoyed

    Hi Tiina, thank you for your lovely review! We're so pleased to hear that you had such a great experience and that Shaz made such a positive impression.

    Felt rushed because we were given 2 hours for the table

    Ariel Modern Italian responded on Wed 09 Apr 25:
    Hi Sive, thank you for your review. We are sorry that you felt rushed at your dining experience. Kindly take note that we have our seating policy in place as this helps us accommodate all guests wishing to dine with us; especially during busier days or peak seasons. This is common practice within Cape Town and has proven to work extremely well. Please note that you can visit us during lunch time between 12h00 - 17h30 (with no time limitation on your booking). Our first seating for dinner is from 17h30 to 20h00 but if you prefer to dine for a longer period, you can book for our 20h15 seating. Although this visit didn't meet your expectations, we hope you'll visit us again during a time where there is no time limit and we can show you the true essence of our establishment.
