    Our waiter Greg was incredible. Always checking in on us and even offered to take a picture for us on our Valentine’s Day dinner date. Food was incredible and we had plenty to take home as leftovers. 10/10.

    Still doesn’t disappoint. If I could change anything it would be that we’re not rushed as much. Place is small and they want to make sure they can turnover in time.

    We've consistently come to Senti because it is always good and still continues to impress. My wife and I had an excellent four course meal this time to celebrate valentines day and every course was great. The server was friendly and informative. He timed everything out perfectly. The steak was one of the best steaks I've had at a restaurant in a long time. Seriously excellent.
