"From out of town , Grazianos was recommended so we made reservations. The staff were all outstanding ! We did the vodka bar which was very cool! Dinner was very good . A jazz band was playing in the bar area , after dinner we moved to the bar and enjoyed the music. The whole experience was very memorable !"

"The only reason I didn't give it an overall 5 was because a band struck up just as we were nearing the end of our meal. They actually removed the 2 small tables and plugged in 2 electric guitars, an electric piano and a drummer RIGHT next to us. I literally could reach over and play the keyboard from where I was sitting. A bit disruptive to an otherwise outstanding experience. Granted, we were eating a bit on the late side ... but never expected to be "on stage" with the entertainment.
Great food, phenomenal service. The band was good, too ... just a little too close for comfort.
Thanks!"

"We went on Valentine's Day. The service was a little bit lacking, which was understandable because it was very busy. However they server would forget things and did not keep the water filled. My girlfriend and I are younger, although still responsible and with jobs that allow us to afford a great night at an upperscale restaurant and we felt as if our service was poorer than the rest of the dining people because we were young. All the women were brought a rose at the end of their dinner for Valentine's day, except my girlfriend (we thought maybe because she was young). Regardless we ALWAYS tip VERY well if the service is good and we felt brushed aside and it was demeaning. On the other hand, the food is great and it is a reccomended place."

"This was a great Birthday dinner-all the food was superb. I especially loved the prawns, they were cooked to perfection and the delicious red chili flake sauce had a nice zip to it. My first visit to the "Blue Room" provided vodka education along with a lovely buzz."

"Bread with an olive oil/balsamic vinegar,roasted garlic to dip the bread in was provided after being seated. We started our meal with gnocchi in pesto sauce as an appetizer. We were also offered extra bread to dip in the pesto sauce. My wife and I ordered the veal Parmesan which came with broccoli, green string beans, and roasted potatoes. The veal was fork tender and delicious and the vegetables were fresh. My son had spaghetti in a meat sauce. We didn't have any wine because we opted for beer. I had a Guinness stout and my wife and son had Stella Artois. All in all it was a fine dining experience. Parking was hard to find at 7:30 PM on a Friday night. We parked in the parking garage a couple of streets over and had a short walk."

"This was a First date nite, and we were not let down. Window seat was the best! The food was hot and a lot of it. The service was great from all the staff. I was surprised to see that the wine list for a glass of wine only had one from Sonoma County?
As Arnald said " I'll be Back"
