Aria Cocina Mexicana and Grill — Restaurant in Ontario

Just AWFULand RUDE The place looks very cool but alas thats all it has going for it. I read many reviews first and many listed the extensive menu options? I went for lunch and had a choice of 4 items Pizza, chicken wings, a panini and a burger. With only 2 tables occupied it still took 15 minuets to get served but ok good food takes time right? None of the 4 items sounded good to me but not wanting to be rude and running out of lunchtime I opted for the turkey panini , turkey was the only option, while waiting what turned out to be another 25 minuets I chatted with the owner about vegan food and if the make their own "meat" He told me "NO ONE makes thier own meats and if they say they do they are lying "! Ooookay then ... He seems to have no interest in or knowlage of vegan cooking of food at all , unfortnate choice of career don't you think? Anyway I'm begining to dred what my late lunch will be but , I think , How bad can it be?" that was soon answered when I was given the most pathetic excuse for a panini I've ever seen! 2 slices of warm plastic pretending to be (V) cheese , 2-3 Tofurkey slices (Only the best in this joint) and a teaspoon of avocado between two carpet samples ! I'm not a one to return food I prefer just not to return but I did say to him "I was expecting better , this is just not a good sandwich " to which he replied "GET OUT, I don't need CHEAP people here " I paid $15.00 for a kids meal , how am I cheap? (I didn't say that to him , I just left) well now I am late and hungry so I try it and seriously ! Flavorless dosen't beging to express this insult to my stomach , It was like eating a gym sock ! The search for good vegan food goes on . One day my freinds...

Honestly really dissatisfied by this restaurant. Portions were extremely small for the prices of meals. ($$$) The food was lack luster in multiple areas; -Many items were bland -many items were over or under cooked -some ingredients tasted questionably vegan (from my partner’s opinion as a non vegan)

Aside from the food being disappointing, the owner who worked up front was also off putting. I’m not one to judge a person by first encounters but he overcharged me and the menu prices were wrong. Along with I was made to feel I was in the wrong for asking about being charged more than what was presented on the menu.

Please check how much you are being charged while being rang up & ask about ingredients. It’s quite concerning seeing other reviews mention that they are known for not using STRICTLY vegan ingredients. Definitely won’t be eating here again.

Sad to see that a vegan restaurant is not owned by vegans or even people who support veganism...

First time here and upon entering I found the decor to be very interesting. I looks as if two completely different restaurants joined together in the same place. It was a huge waste of space that isn't necessary, mostly empty chairs and tables. The food was the worst part. We ordered the "Blt" with fries which was $4 extra. The fries were not crispy and were a little under cooked. The cauliflower wings( lemon pepper) were ok but not worth $12 and the $15 jackfruit nachos which was literally tortilla chips, shredded cheese and a few pieces of shredded jackfruit with some sort of white sauce in a cup. Also the food took 42 minutes to come out and we were the only 3 people in the whole restaurant. The only positive thing was the server who was an older gentleman and he was nice. The bill was over $45 and we still left hungry. Overall, I felt like this was a complete of money and will not...
