The restaurant is accented with shades of fresh greens and yellows with floor-to-ceiling re restaurant, Aaria has the most spectacular view of the Atlantic Ocean in South Florida that can be seen from inside the restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows or from the veranda while enjoying contemporary tropical cuisine. The menu created by Executive Chef Ted Peters offers a sumptuous breakfast, lunch and dinner menu. Signature items include Mongolian barbeque-dipped Niman Ranch baby back ribs; spiny lobster tail wrapped in a kataffi pastry with black sesame streusel and mango-wasabi jus; an open-face crab cake sandwich on jalapeño brioche and bonsai Kobe burgers on warm potato cushions.
