This flower shop has very good quality flowers. The flowers were extremely fresh and healthy. If anyone wants fresh flowers from a flower shop in the area this is the place.

Cesar Cornejo

Five starts does due justice for the look on my girl friends face when she got the flowers! Thank you Ariel Bethesda Florist!

Don’t waist your money! My husband ordered me flowers with 2 balloons for Valentine’s Day, and no delivery that day, so he called and no answer, he end up buying flowers from somewhere else, he sent an email to complain and cancel the order in the evening, he also called the day after and they said they will not refund him, the flowers has been delivered a day after the 15 th at noon, they were not fresh and mostly damaged, and no bloons and no card. I’m so unhappy and I will not stop saying all what I think in all my blogs and around me until they show a minimum of consideration to their customers...

FANTASTIC WEDDING FLOWERS Everyone talks about how talented Anita is, but I experienced it myself when I hired her to do my wedding. The flowers she provided were fresh, beautiful and arranged better than I could have ever imagined. She went above and beyond what I was expecting, was the most organized florist I came across when vetting possible vendors for my wedding. She was timely, professional, understanding and lovely to interact with.!

Brandon Medina

Sam Bringham

The prices here are very afforable and reasonable. Lots of different arrangements.

Kevin Soriano

Had an ok experience with this place. Called in today to place an order and it seemed like the guy who took my order was more interested in taking my order immediately and just getting me off the phone. I tried to explain what I wanted, but all he kept saying was ok ok ok. Long story short, he did get the bright colored part of what I wanted, but basically missed the FIRST and most important thing that I asked for, which is "my girlfriend loves daisies." That same person also told me that it will be delivered between 1-3, but it was delivered at 4. I can't really take off stars for timing since my girlfriend still received it and I didn't specify the timing. She seems to be satisfied with the arrangement, which is why I'm going to leave 3 stars. Otherwise, it wasn't really that good for me :/

David Dear

They didn't deliver flowers on the date promised. They didn't want to refund our credit card charge. However, they just emailed me that the flowers were delivered. ... 4 days late! Now their phone system is down. Will never use them . again.

Jordan Askarinam

Ariel florist was nothing but a pleasure to work with. I ordered flowers today and they made them to my mother on time before she left the office. Very impressed.

This business is questionable. Click on any of the writer of any of the 5 Star Reviews and you'll see that they all review the same flower shops. Those same list of flower shops can be found on the bottom of their own website. I ordered flowers for Valentine's Day, but they did not arrive until after 9:30pm. I called their phone number multiple times. There is no answering machine that states the businesses name, just a message stating "this mailbox is full. If you go to the address listed on their website there is no flower shop. As I mentioned, the flowers did finally arrive, and they are pretty, but the note that I wrote was not included. And, 9:30 is a very late delivery. I would not order from them again.

Jeremy Davis

Called at 7:30AM for same-day delivery (within 5 miles). They said it would be delivered that afternoon. They charged my card. It never got delivered. I called the next morning to ask why and the answer was that it was late in the day, they had a busy delivery day and that's why it wasn't delivered as expected. I suggested that next time they could actually call the customer and let them know why they wouldn't be holding up their end of the deal. Seems like a reasonable effort on the part of a business providing goods & services. They were obviously offended by my Google review of their business that instead of making it right, they called to say they were refunding my money, cancelling the order, and suggested that I use another florist. I suppose this is what you do when your business is so good that you can dispense with customers at will.

Marycruz Ramirez

Really beautiful designs, amazing people, really good service, definitely recommending this place

Tyler Croak

The notes on their ordering page apparently do not transfer to the delivery folks correctly, so if you have specific instructions I would suggest relaying it through a phone call rather than relying on the ordering page. I had two good orders in the past year but my last order did not arrive on time. The person i spoke to on the phone could not give me any details on when to expect a refund. Please make improvements unfortunately I will be choosing a different florist from now on. 4/30/18 - And i still do not have a refund. Each time i call i end up talking to someone who says to call again and speak with one of the owners. I have lowered my rating as this has been a terrible experience.

Genesis Velasco

AGAIN GREAT FLOWERS !...ALWAYS AWSOME SERVICE WITH ABOVE AND BEYOND FLOWERS THAT CONTINUE TO IMPRESS . WILL CONTINUE TO BE MY GO TO FLORIST IN THE AREA.HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL !

Crooks. Not only did Ariel Florist FAIL TO DELIVER flowers for my wife's birthday, but keep promising to give a refund and have not yet done so. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS MERCHANT!!

Andrew Moran

I originally placed an online order but forgot to put the discount code to get the 15% sale. I called the shop the next morning and I was told the only way to effect the discount was to have them cancel the original order which they supposedly did and then for me to reorder which I did. Now I’m charged twice for the same order for which I did not get a refund on my CC for the original order despite calling them twice and emailing them twice. I now have to go through the credit card dispute process. Update: I went through the credit card dispute process. My original web order was refunded a month after the double charge. It was a hassle but it's all resolved. The lesson is that the web portal billing process is disconnected from the florist, so it's very difficult to get a refund through the florist. If you order directly from the florist by phone by their local number, it's easier to fix with them if something goes wrong IMHO.

I chose to call this place directly versus 1-800-FLOWERS based on the reviews and could not have been more disappointed with the service from this place and with Randy. I called on a Wednesday for a delivery to take place the following Monday morning. I was going to be out of town and my wife, who has been out of a job for quite some time, was starting a new job and I wanted it to be very special and surprise her. (If i was in town, I would have made the delivery in person.) The first time I called, the person on the other line answered, “Flower shop...” No greeting, no name of the store, not even his name. Each time I called, this is how he answered. I explained the scenario and how important it was that she get the delivery Monday morning. I clearly gave him the name of the business, the address, 2 names and numbers to call if there were any questions, (because I was out of the country) and specifically requested the flowers be delivered in the morning. After a snarky response (like it was a really unreasonable request), I said, “If was not possible, I would contact another florist.” He said he would include it with the mornings deliveries on Monday. At lunchtime, on Monday, i contacted my 2 colleagues who were happy to assist me and neither of them had received word of the delivery. I contacted the florist and spoke to someone different. He apologized, said he would reach out to the driver, and follow up with me. I never got a callback. I called at the end on my wife’s first day, and she did not get the delivery. I finally got a text message from a colleague that they were delivered to the wrong place. I called the florist again and left a voicemail. Still no call back. I called again and respectfully voiced my anger that this was a complete bomb of the surprise that I had planned for my wife. I wanted a refund and was told that I HAD TO CALL BACK, because the boss, Randy, is the only one who can authorize a refund and probably wouldn’t call me. I’m not blaming this person as it seemed to me that this was the protocol put in place. I called back at the designated time and left another message to have Randy call me. The plant was delivered to the correct address the next day; however, I still have not been contacted. Definitely think again before ordering from “Flower Shop...” This is not a place worth your time or money. It does not seem like they care about their customers, and they make you feel like your simple requests are such a burden!

G Ricch

Just ordered my girlfriend flowers. Extremely happy with the price! Way more reasonable then the other options i shopped around for and if there even half as nice as the last time I ordered from you guys. Then I know she'll be happy.

I ordered a floral arrangement back on 4/24/18 and paid with my credit card over the phone. The arrangement was delivered as requested however I was charged twice for the same order. I called and spoke with the owner who said he was out of the country but would take care of issuing me credit the next day. That did not happen. I waited 2 weeks thinking it might take time to show up but when no credit was issued I called again last week. Again I was told a credit would be issued. As of today that has not happened. I will never use Ariel Florist again and I will notify all of my family and friends in the area of my situation.

I've ordered flowers from Ariel on several occasions and each time I've been just blown away by the sophistication and elegance of their arrangements. I've never been disappointed and neither have my family and friends who have received these deliveries. I'd highly recommend them to anyone wanting flowers for any occasion!

Stephen Garabed

halim charbel

Horrible experience. Poor service. Did not deliver the flowers on the day they were supposed to. Sent them on a different day in the evening to a business address way after the event was over. Unfortunately I only asked about them after the fact and many people had such bad experience with them. Never use them
