Travel Boracay: Aria Cucina Italiana at the D'Mall

On our last night, my sister and I decided to have a nice dinner at Aria to have my pre-birthday dinner. Aria has been a Boracay staple since it opened in 2003. I remember it being a hype and now I read that it branched out in Bonifacio High Street.

Funny, when we asked to be seated (in Tagalog, Filipino Language), the waiters were English Speaking! :) Nice Training. 

It used to be one of the first establishments in Boracay Station 2, particularly D'Mall. Lucky that it stands on the beach front and it's really hard to miss. Now on with the food...

We didn't order much because it's night time already but we just want to try Aria before we leave for Manila the next day.

Carbonara

Pizza Margherita

We couldn't finish the half of the pizza so we took it home and had it re-heated for breakfast before our flight.

Happy Pre-Birthday to Me!

On a totally different day, we were able to try out Aria's newest venture, the gelato. 

We ordered the two scoops for Php160 and shared.  One scoop costs Php90.00.

Choco mint + Nutella

Food: 3.5 out of 5

- it has this authentic italian taste, maybe it has something to do with my acquired taste, but I still prefer yellow cab pizza over the margherita.

- Pizza takes long to be served. Maybe because it's woodfire fresh.

- I love the gelato! Really worth the money!

Service: Good 

Price: We paid less than 1k for carbonara, pizza, 1 soda and 1 bottled water. That's good for two. Still in the category of Splurge.
