Laid-back destination with a patio serving upmarket Italian dishes in unfussy surroundings.
"Dinner at Aromi Italian Restaurant starts with a duck prosciutto salad in a sweet Maui onion dressing or burrata atop a golden beet carpaccio. Spaghetti neri in lobster bisque, rabbit ragout pappardelle, and octopus and cioppino are just some of the dishes Castellanos recommends. Other favorites include bread and thyme-crusted New Zealand lamb chop or branzino in prosseco sauce. The restaurant also features a risotto of the day." - Janna Karel
"Aromi Italian Restaurant from executive chef German Castellanos and his partner, pastry chef Alessandro Stoppa, debuted in the former Nittaya’s Secret Kitchen space in Summerlin after the Thai restaurant moved around the corner. They met at the former Valentino at the Venetian, where Castellanos worked as chef de cuisine and Stoppa was the pastry chef. In 2016, the pair opened Vanilla and Pepper Catering. Now the two friends have a restaurant featuring classic Italian dishes for lunch and dinner. Castellanos highlights some of his favorite dishes on the menu.

Come for lunch or head out to the tiny patio" - Susan Stapleton
