    Met a friend at NYAJoe for lunch. Zach, our waiter, was personable and enjoyable to chat with. He was there when we needed something and gone when we didn't which was great. My guest got a bloody mary and a sandwich - she enjoyed both. I got a delicious Proseco, one of the best I've ever had and I order them often, and a flatbread with bacon and blue cheese. Flatbread was delicious but so big I couldnt finish it. The big surprise was the $64 check which came to $76 w/ tip. So almost $100 for lunch for two w/ one drink each and $18 each for the food we ate. Next time we'll drink before we go! Seriously, why is it IMPOSSIBLE to find a full menu online. I like to try to decide what I will order ahead of time so time spent w/ a friend is not taken up w/ looking at the menu. The groupings were odd online - Group Meals, Family Meals, but nothing for just 2 people coming for lunch. Also no lisiting of drinks and prices. While I commend the noise level as being lower than almost any restaurant I have gone to in years, it was a bit aggravating that the TV that was pointed to where I was sitting had a soccer game on. Would much rather have had nothing on or news and leave the soccer game for the guys at the bar to watch. Last, but certainly not least, the ladies bathroom needs a refresh. The paint on the inside of the doors has peeled. Wouldnt be much of a dollar investment to sand the doors a bit and put a new coat of paint on.

    Nice "ladies lunch." Appreciated the patience of the staff with late arrivals and limited appetites. The octopus starter was delicious. Hadn't been to Lia's for a while and it was nice to come back and know it is still a great place. Will be back soon.

    Delicious food! We asked for a quiet part of the restaurant, and the hostess seated us in their back room. For most of the meal, we had that space all to ourselves and we were able to enjoy the food, the drinks, and the conversation. That made a perfect evening!
