Ara Jupiter

The owner Steve knocked it out of the park with Ara. Was just reading the reviews and found it hard to believe someone complained about the Sweet Corn Tortellini. It might be the best dish in Jupiter. I would recommend sharing if it’s your first time so you can try a few small plates. All the bartenders are great but Emma is our favorite. She makes us feel like it’s the Cheers’ bar.

Server Kalya was great, the owner/Mgr came to the table several times to make sure everything was good. The food was top grade as was the service. Highly recommended

DO IT ! Ara was by far the best culinary experience I’ve had in a long time. As someone who’s grown up with and surrounded by great food and restaurants , I can be quite hard to please, but Ara exceeded all my expectations. Atmosphere: From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between chic and cozy. The owner himself opened the door and greeted us so pleasantly. (I genuinely enjoyed seeing that. It made me feel even more welcomed) . The warm, inviting ambiance made me feel like I was in a trendy Manhattan eatery, complete with soft lighting and beautiful chic decor. Food : The quality was top-notch, and I was thrilled with the diverse selection on the menu. Every single dish we ordered blew me away. Each plate was crafted with skill and attention to detail, showcasing both creativity and culinary skill. The cocktail and wine list was equally as Impressive. Experience: We were celebrating both an anniversary and Easter dinner, and Ara made the occasion memorable. Keala walked us through the entire experience, was kind and attentive with our curiosity towards the menu and also made us feel very welcomed , we were very happy to have the pleasure of her taking care of us. This dining experience has undoubtedly secured its place in my top three meals of my life. If you're looking for exceptional food, a beautiful atmosphere, and dining experience that will linger in your memory, Ara is a must-visit. I can’t wait to return! Thank you Ara!

Fine dining in a casual low-key atmosphere, valet parking, full bar, and open kitchen. watching the chefs at work orchestrated by Kayla the Chef. Middle Eastern flair to many of the dishes. We had a bunch of the appetizers. We started with one fun drinks. (not I) that looked good. followed by the apps. Tzatzki and fresh Pita, flat bread 2 kinds and lamb dumplings. Followed by sharing with my wife spicy homemade rigatoni and Lambchops cooked to perfection. other had the grilled Cesar salad. Coincidentally, our servers name was also Kayla, which was terrific and fun! Griffin, the manager, stopped by to check on us, and he was gracious. The table we happened to have was a large group of 11, and it was the Chefs table, which made it fun to watch the Bear like kitchen in action.

We are so happy we chose Ara for dinner and drinks! From the moment we arrived, we knew it was going to be a fantastic experience. There’s free valet service at the front, and the attendants were exceptionally friendly— they even opened the car door for us! The hostess also went above and beyond by bringing me a bag hook, so I didn’t have to worry about my bag on the floor or chair—such a thoughtful touch. Our server, Star, was an absolute delight! She was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and offered us great recommendations, including some of her personal favorites. She kept our table tidy, made sure we always had clean dishes for each course, and topped off our waters without us ever having to ask. Now, the food at Ara is simply phenomenal. The Salmon Crudo was an absolute standout—so fresh and perfectly complemented by the ripened avocado. The sauce was so delicious that we couldn’t resist dipping the homemade bread in it, not wanting to waste a single drop! The lamb dumplings and carpaccio were equally outstanding, and we were pleasantly surprised by the generous portion sizes. For our main courses, we had the lamb and the octopus. Both were beautifully balanced and packed with flavor. The lamb chops were thick and juicy—again, the portions were much more than we expected! To finish, we tried the pecan pie at the suggestion of the owner, Steven. I’m not usually a fan of pecan pie, but this was absolutely delicious! The warm pie, paired with ice cream and caramel, was the perfect end to our meal. A special mention to Steven, the owner, who was incredibly attentive to all the guests throughout the evening. It’s clear he takes great pride in the restaurant, and his presence really adds to the overall atmosphere. It’s easy to see how well-run Ara is under his leadership. Overall, Ara offered a wonderful dining experience from start to finish, and we can’t wait to return!

We have been waiting for something different to open in the Jupiter/Tequesta area and it has finally arrived in the form of Ara! We have visited twice so far and it has been outstanding both times. It is so refreshing to find a restaurant who actually changes their menu up daily with fresh Interesting dishes instead of the same old boring stuff that you find in every other place around town, the service is excellent as well, and I love the open kitchen where you can see the chef’s working diligently to please all of their customers. They also make one of the best old fashions I have ever had and that is saying a lot! My new favorite!

I took my father here on Father’s Day and the food was absolutely delicious, my dad is a chef and he even rated the food 5 stars which says a lot!!! We had Kayla as our server and she did an excellent job, Steven who runs this establishment was a delight and we will definitely be coming back!!

An absolute 5 star place. These guys know what they are doing - the drinks were exceptional (NYC quality), the food was amazing, we had a happy hour menu - try lamb chops, if you don’t like them, I’ll pay for it. Lastly the amazing staff - everyone knew what they were doing and they did it greatly. This might seem like I’m a son of an owner, and I don’t blame you if you do, but me and my wife had a really good time over there. Ara guys, of you are reading this - don’t get spoiled and lazy - please maintain the level of your service, Jupiter needs you. Cheers.
