I met with a friend here before they opened and they were welcoming and accommodating as I sat the reservations came flooding in..... all I can think is What a quaint place, beautifully simple and straight to the point, spectacular attentive service and delicious authentic Italian food. They didn't disappoint every dish was tasty and memorable apps main and dessert The owner saw we ordered everything but the pizza and insisted we tried it which was a brick oven mamas recipe taste. Come and make sure you get reservations I'll see you there !! read more

I've only been once and Aromi has already made it into the top three Italian spots for me in this area. Loves: + Food is delicious! My fave was the spaghetti ($21) which shocked me but it was perfect with pasta made in house. Another standout was the paccheri pasta special. + The complimentary bread is or tastes like their pizza bread, and it's good. + Prices are reasonable + Staff is friendly, especially owner Alessandro! I left the restaurant and nearly altered my dinner plans over the weekend to come back here bc that's how good I thought it was LOL. But yes, can't wait to come back here soon!!! :) read more

I loved everything about Aromi when I first visited and I still do. I wish I lived closer as I'd visit more often. This charming, rustic authentic Italian restaurant never disappoints. Staff is extremely friendly and Restaurant Week was a perfect time to revisit. For $45 you can commit to the RW menu or order off the menu however all parties must do the same. The ambience was adorable and the space filled up as time went by. . We shared Fried Calamari and the Arugula Salad for starters. This was the ying yang of appetizers as it was extremely delicious and complemented one another. The Calamari was perfectly crisp with side dipping sauces--Marinara and Squid Ink. Unlike anything I've tasted. So very delicious. The salad was refreshing and simple--Arugula, Pear, Gorgonzola and Walnuts . Very good. Great sharing portion as was the Calamari. We both selected the Branzino for main. Carefully wrapped in a foil paper with clams, mussels, olives and grape tomatoes in a light broth, it was so delicious and well executed. The fish was deboned, fresh and firm. Very good. We shared 2 desserts for final course: Tiramisu and Panna Cotta. No need to describe this but it was traditional and excellent. A delicious Rose complimented the meal and Limoncello shots were brought to our table on the house as we wrapped things up. Overall, we enjoyed this delicate, delicious and decadent meal at Aromi. Shout out to Sarah who offered her most gracious hospitality and Andrea. We had a brief chit chat with him about all things Italian toward the end of our meal. Seriously consider Aromi for RW or any other week. You'll experience warm hospitality, amazing food and attentive service/ambience. Yes....I'm in love with you, Aromi. read more

Love love love. Didn't even plan on coming here but I'm so glad we did. This pasta was so delicious. The sauce that comes with the meatballs - oh my gosh. Wow.

Phenomenal pizza. I tried the one with the same name as the restaurant. The toppings were quite simple with just some zucchini, and halved cherry tomatoes took the place of the sauce. The crust is the real star of the show. The flavor was moderately developed, with a deeply comforting wheatey flavor. The texture was supreme - crispy and fluffy, without the doughiness you can sometimes get from a Neapolitan dough. Totally worth the $25 after taxes. read more

Thank you Yelp friend Matthew S for your five stars Aromi review! A million stars for this restaurant- the food was truly exceptional. I tried the "Branzino Al cartoccio" Wood oven baked branzino fish with seafood - mussels, clams, capers, olives, tomatoes and fresh sprigs of rosemary. Omg - it was amazingly delicious! I still cannot believe how good it was. Truly amazing cuisine. Well worth every penny ! Five stars / great food! read more

5 stars is for the pizza, and the pizza only! Sadly I wouldn't recommend there other dishes, at least not for delivery bc they were not good. Maybe the pastas are better if you go in person but the meatballs are straight nasty and the salads are pretty plain. But back to the good stuff. The pizza here is the closest I've had to those in Italy. The dough is crusty, chewy, and sooooo flavorful and perfectly soggy crispy - ifykyk. The toppings deliver well even through delivery and I just can't get enough of their pizza!! Aromi is the best pizza I've had in the city and that's saying a lot! I'd choose it over Roberta's any day of the week, year or century! read more

Absolutely delicious and amazing service! The owner Alessandro is so nice and welcoming! We started with the focaccia and calamari - so good! Across the four of us, we got the special four cheese pizza, the lasagna, one of the salads and I got the special pasta with clams. The plating was beautiful and the pasta was delicious and home made. We also sat in the lovely back patio, so cute! Can't wait to come back! read more

Top notch food and drinks! Did a restaurant week dinner here and we were the first to arrive upon opening. The ambiance of this place is giving cozy winter getaway. They have the wood burning oven and well stocked bar in the background. I had the Rosemary fizz and it was herbacious and fizzy from the Prosecco. The focaccia bread was made fresh and served warm and fluffy but topping it with the ricotta took it up another notch. The chicken was cooked and fried to perfection and all the ingredients in the food all tasted fresh and flavorful. The pannacotta was soft and pillowy with fresh berries and compost on top. It wasn't to sweet either. The Caio e Pepe ravioli was really good as well. read more

Amazing, authentic Italian food. A local restaurant in Carrol Gardens, with so much Italian charm. The owners were amazing and helped us decide what to try. We started with the Bruschette Burratoa. A toasted bread with the creamiest, fresh burrata, topped with truffle and prosciutto . We also had the Margherita pizza. The crust was the thinnest I have ever had. All of the ingredients are so fresh ! The basil was so fresh it tasted as if it was picked from a garden ..in the middle of winter. Watching the pizzas being made was a treat ! I highly recommend and will likely return. read more

We already went twice to Aromi, the last time was yesterday in occasion of our Anniversary. Alessandro is a very nice man, and so is the whole staff! The ambience is great, the service is great, but what is really outstanding is the quality of the food we tried. First of all the pizza dough is absolutely the best we tasted in NYC, and as a native Italian I am VERY picky! The dough is light, elastic, tasty, soft, absolutely as it SHOULD be in a real Neapolitan pizza. The sauce of the Margherita was perfect, and you could taste the mozzarella, contrary to what usually is only melting generic cheese. Also the PBR white pizza was delicious, with prosciutto, fresh burrata and arugula. The calamari fritti are fantastic, crunchy, tasty and not heavy at all. The timballo di melanzane (eggplants) also was VERY good, light and tasty. Tartare di tonno VERY good too. And to finish, the pannacotta dessert was perfect, rich but not over sweet as usually is in NY. My only regret yesterday was that they last night hey had one of my favorite dishes as special, the mozzarella in carrozza, but having ordered already the calamari, too much fried food would have been too much for my old stomach haha! We DEFINITELY will be back soon. read more

If you want to feel you are in Italy Aromi is the place to be. Not only the foods were great but also the people who work and served us. We were also surprised we were able to communicate with them in Italian and/or English. Will be coming back soon. read more

I second that emotion: Who cares about that impossible reservation system at Una Pizza Napoletana, or the big bucks necessary to eat at L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele: I just discovered phenomenal Neopolitan style pizza at Aromi in Carroll Gardens! From the moment I stepped into this authentic Italian cafe/bar/garden restaurant Sat afternoon up to the offer of a Limoncello at the finish, the warm hospitality and a delicious leisurely lunch at the bar created a 5 star experience. read more

Aromi - This is top tier Neopolitan style pizza in Brooklyn - Italian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The pizza here was better than some of those super overhyped places all across the city. I personally prefer chewy dough cooked in a brick oven, so obviously this is personal preference, but man was the pizza damn good. It was so good I had to ask the owner/manager how they got the dough so chewy! 10/10 I will be coming back for the pizza here. read more

Great homemade Napoleon pizza and homemade pasta that is a definite rise from competition. We highly recommend!

Look out Lucali, look out Giuseppina's, look out Tutt' Appost, this is a great pizzeria made from native Italians and despite the high prices, they have a great, great product that will make you want to come back for more, even if it means having to wait until 5 pm to do so (if you come during the weekends, they open at noon). I tried three things, their grilled octopus, their meatball appetizer, and their Salamina Piccante pizza, which basically is their hot salami pizza. I also got some of their complementary bread, which basically is their ripped pizza crust, served with olive oil. The latter item is absolutely fantastic; incredibly light, I could eat this all day because it is so light. The olive oil is great too, and they have two types, a spicier and a regular, either one works. The grilled octopus is grilled perfectly. It could do without the red onion, but it is great otherwise. I have been to restaurants where it is overcooked, rubbery, and dry. This one does it right. A minute or two more on the grill and it would be all those things. The meatball appetizer is great too. Served with two pieces of bread, the meatballs are a great size, and you get three of them. This works well as an appetizer. It also sits in a pool of meat sauce, which I think you should keep after you finish eating the meatballs, as it makes for a fantastic dipping sauce for the bread. Lastly, the pizza is great. Everything is cooked beautifully, and their engineered crust works beautifully. The salami is ample on the pie, and the cheese and sauce marry well with it. You also get a nice sized pie, no shortchanging as I have seen too many Italian restaurants do. I would also like to point out how nice the owners are. Allessandro, one of the owners, was super nice and friendly. He was engaging and introduced himself when I first walked into the restaurant. I was also appreciative with how knowledgable he was with his product. I would recommend coming here and will likely return. read more

Aromi - Margherita - Italian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Went here a couple weeks ago for my birthday. It was highly recommended but I had never been. Immediately upon walking in the atmosphere was quaint and very cozy and cute. We were seated in the front of the restaurant which was lowly lit but I assume the back is just as cute. The service was also very good and friendly, however, I would pace your ordering or tell them to slow it down because our food came very quickly and we were in and out in about 45 min-1 hour. We ordered the orecchiette with broccolini and sausage as well as a margherita pizza (shared between 2 people), they also started us off with some break and hot chili oil. Everything was so so good especially the pasta. I really enjoyed this dinner and will definitely be going again, would highly recommend! read more

Great hole in the wall Italian spot in Carroll Gardens. We loved the atmosphere and the service was impeccable. We started off with two cocktails, and the espresso martini was divine. Then, we ordered a pizza which had one of the most delicate crusts I ever tasted, and was well flavored in it self. The chef also gave us a bottle of his homemade honey to try, which really upped the flavor. Great spot and would definetly come back to try their pastas and specials. read more

Dined here for restaurant week and it was an amazing experience. First off this cozy hidden gem is the perfect romantic date spot with its dim lighting and cute outdoor seating options. The servers are friendly and attentive and the aroma of fresh pasta and sauce filled the air. For appetizers we had the meatballs and tuna tartare. The meatballs were tender and the sauce was rich. The tartare was fresh and light. For entrees we got the spaghetti and Cacio e Pepe ravioli. I really enjoyed the Cacio e Pepe I've alway had it in a long noodle form such a fettuccini bucatini spaghetti but never a ravioli and it was the perfect amount of filling. For desserts the panna cotta was set perfectly and the consistency of both desserts should be praised. We also opted for a bottle of red that took the meal to another level and at an add on of $30 for the restaurant week deal it was a steal. Our servers were very friendly and we didn't wait long in between our meals. Only call out is that some bread for the table would have been a nice plus, but I left happy and full and will definitely be on the look out for this spot next time! read more

Their pizza is as good as the fantastic Una , But you don't have to reserve and wait in line forever .... In addition I tried their (home made) lobster black ink squid's linguine - Excellent!!!! Very nice super Toscana red in a glass . Take the F , it's fast and its worth it ! Highly recommended!!!! Definitely A Destination!!!! read more

Aromi is another welcome restaurant addition in the neighborhood, they serve authentic and favorite Italian fare. We came here on a lovely Sunday afternoon, we were offered seats in the backyard or by the window in front of the restaurant, we chose the latter since there's also a jazz musician performing during our visit. This place offers a full bar with its own cocktails concoction. There's only 2 pages menu one for food, the other for drinks. We started with calamari fritti (my partner's favorite and we always order this whenever we can-as previously mentioned in my reviews) it was served with special squid ink mayo and salsa and polpette al sugo or meatballs. The dishes suited well with a bottle of Rosato. For the main entree, we decided to eat family-style. We shared carbonara pizza, Margherita, and carbonara pasta. All dishes are simply epicurean, it was served hot and freshly made. The dishes are all well portioned and we felt full that we didn't have space for dessert until the owner informed us that she already prepared us a complimentary dessert of pannacotta and crème brûlée, who could say no to that! Before we took off we were then offered a shot of limoncello, it was one of the best Sunday lunches to be had. With great food, and awesome customer service, this place is another neighborhood gem. read more

The food was okay, but the service was terrible. I asked them to pack up the calamari fries, but they were so busy with their regular customers that they forgot about it. To make matters worse, my bill was $68.60, but I was charged $80. I had also given $12 in cash as a tip. YIKES. read more

I'd rate Aromi four and a half stars. Authentic Neapolitan feel to the restaurant. Started with a glass of Primitivo which was a rich, juicy glass. Sweet with berry and light chocolatey flavors. Fine wine for late November / early December. We shared the Mista salad for the first course. It had mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, corn, shredded carrots, and a citrus vinaigrette. Light and refreshing. Brought me back to summer on a cold, windy night. For the main course, I had the tuna, capers, and onion pizza while my wife had the burrata, pesto, zucchini, and fried meatball pizza. I liked the creativity on the menu. Dough was soft and airy with a light char on the edge. It was a fork and knife pie. For dessert, we shared the tiramisu in a cup. I also had a glass of amaretto on the rocks. I liked the tiramisu. It was on the creamy end. Staff was nice and allowed us to hang around without rushing us at afterwards. Service was attentive though out the night. They have one, spacious, gender neutral restroom. read more
