    Volare is always a wonderful experience. Everything on the menu is delicious. I know it’s an Italian restaurant, but I think they have the best ribeye in town. Seriously! Try it! Parking can be tough but they do have valet parking if you don’t feel figuring that out. It’s a small tight neighborhood with a lot of cars. Don’t let the parking stop you. You will love it!

    A friend and I went to Varanese for his 25th birthday. OpenTable had an option to specify if the reservations were for a special occasion and I said yes, for a birthday. We got to the front desk and they brought it up almost immediately, which really surprised my friend, and they seated us at a table with a little "happy birthday" sign on it. The live jazz band even played a snippet of the birthday song and have him a complimentary birthday dessert with a little candle on it. He loved it! Our waitress was great, and we didn't want for anything. The owner of the restaurant was milling around, checking on patrons and just being an overall lovely host. All of the food was delicious. This was pretty much the best American-style cuisine restaurant I have ever been to. It was all very classy, flavorful, fresh, and perfectly cooked. Nothing was overdone or undercooked. It got a little loud on a Friday night at 7pm, but honestly, that's just Frankfort Ave for you on a Friday night lol! It didn't bother me enough to affect my rating though. I would highly recommend this restaurant, especially for special occasions — they really do go all out.

    Our server, Conner, was knowledgeable about the menu, and the restaurant itself, as were all of the staff. Efficient, also. The food (salads, duck confit and rack of lamb) was truly remarkable: flavorful, nuanced, and delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.
