Aria Wine Bar

Wonderful warm octopus special, followed by the seafood pasta special and the linguine with clams. The octopus was, hands down, the best dish. The window seats were nice for people watching and will be nicer when the scaffolding outside comes down. The decor in the bathroom was appreciated -- a slate wall and chalk provided, so that graffiti is permitted but not permanent, and a wall of toilet paper rolls. A nice, reasonably priced, selection of wine by the glass. Wasn't told (and did not ask) the price of the specials, and found they were more expensive when the check came, but I would have considered ordering them at the price charged. The linguini vognole was saltier than I would have liked, but that just means I'll order something different next time. Certainly worth a repeat visit.
