Stop sending me txt messages that I didnt sign up for, its spam and I dont want them. And you even have the cheek to add a number that I can send a STOP message to that will charge me how dare you!! I have called and given one of your staff my number and told her to pass it on to your owner to get these messages stopped. If you keep sending them I will seek legal help.

Today it was our third time at Aromas restaurant. We already plan what to order next time and after that - food is that good. My favourite so far is Lamb Timur but other meals are fantastic too. The service is… great and staff friendly and willing to help to choose 😊 Shame I lived on the doorstep of this fabulous place for three years and only now discovered it... 🙃
