   We came after work for drinks, a light bite and to catch up. Our reservation was at 4:45pm. Food overall was good with exception to the peas and rice which was undercooked but they replaced with white rice immediately. The drinks were very good. The only reason I gave the experience a 3 star was we were asked to leave by 6:00pm because they had another reservation. It wasn't packed! There were many empty tables on both sides and no waiting parties to be seated. Very unprofessional and hospitable. Didn't even offer us coffee or dessert. We were waiting for two other individuals to join us but told them not to bother. I came from LI so my drive was the longer than the meal. Not sure if I'll return.

   If you're looking for a cozy and intimate dining experience, Lilli's is the perfect spot. On a Tuesday evening, it was neither noisy nor overcrowded which was the ideal atmosphere for us. The drinks were fantastic. I had the Pineapple Sunrise, which was well-balanced, allowing every flavor to shine without being too strong. The appetizers were a hit with my family, who enjoyed the salmon sliders, shrimp rolls, and wings. However, my entrée, the stir-fried vegetables, was underwhelming. The dish featured large stalks of bok choy and did not include rice, requiring an additional $7 for a small side of fried rice. While intended to have an Asian-inspired flavor, it fell short. The fried rice itself was overly salty yet lacked the depth of flavor that a bit more soy sauce could have provided. The penne alfredo was decent, with large shrimp and generous portions. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with excellent service. Our hostess, Claudia, and the rest of the staff were wonderful. One thing to note is that if you bring your own cake, there is a $25 service fee for cutting it.

   Second time at venue with same waiter can’t remember his name but really seems like he has attitude / maybe long day but second time same person / same experience Idk. Secondly he gave friend bill for 138. We paid bill he gave us change. Ten to fifteen minutes later comes back said he gave us wrong bill should of been 153. To me that was unprofessional he or the restaurant should of took responsibility at this point NOT us as the customers.

   I had a great time at Lilli Restaurant! The customer service, food, and music were excellent—it had a very classy vibe. My oxtail pasta was delicious.

   Food was great but the service was mediocre and I was placed right next to the DJ, which was very loud.

   The food was beautifully presented and delicious. It wasn’t inexpensive though but certainly worth it for a special occasion. I would definitely go again.

   This is a nice-looking restaurant. I was celebrating my birthday that day with my family. It wasn't crowded that day, and on Sundays, it brunch all day. I will go back on another day so I can try other foods on the menu.
