    Disappointed that many menu items were not available. Server informed us that the restaurant was closing at the end of the year, so items were not restocked. However, the staff all worked hard and were very attentive, and our meals from a limited food selection were very good.

    As always, good experience. It's too bad they're closing the end of December. A little understaffed and service was a little slow but everything was really good.

    Great place! I was looking forward to a ribeye, but they were out, so I opted for the New York strip. Not my favorite cut, but it was prepared exactly as I wanted and very flavorful. The waiter was very polite and attentive. He made us feel welcome. The atmosphere was nice and romantic and the food was delicious!

    The food and service was excellent! We would have preferred a booth or separate table for just the two of us, but overall the dining experience was exceptional.

    Excellent meal! The Hong Kong Mussels were possibly the best mussels we've ever had! Everything was very good, including the service from Sophia. If we're back in that area, we'll definitely go back.

    Our dining experience was just average. I was expecting much more as I was comparing it to Dante in Cleveland.
