    We always enjoy Das! The wait staff are attentive and your water glass is always full. We got the cheese appetizer, beef awaze fit fit, fish asa, and vegetarian sampler. Everything was excellent. The staff checked on us multiple times. Our daughter got a takeout of the soaked injara and left it on the table. The restaurant called me twice and left a voicemail saying they had it for her but I got the message too late. They are one of the best restaurants I’ve ever eaten in. Will always go back

    Letena was a winner from start to finish. The servers were friendly and helpful, the food was delicious and well-presented and the ambiance was just right. We got the veggie sampler and our granddaughter ordered the beef tips. Both were outstanding. Bravo!
