    We had a great experience on Valentine’s Day. From the moment we walked in until we left we were treated with great service. Our server Melia was very knowledgeable and helpful in the choices we made. She provided very personable service. Our food was very delicious. We both had the lamb shank. They provided us with a very nice knife for cutting our meat. This was not needed because the meat literally fell off the bone as soon as you touched it.

    In the last half of a decade, on average, I’ve gone out to eat about once a day, 365 days a year. I cannot understate how amazing Boketto was. Food was exceptional, ambiance and aesthetic were unmatched. The real game changer? Our server, Katie E. She was the most kind, well mannered, and social server I have had anywhere across the entire country in the last 2+ years. If you book a rez at Boketto, ask to be seated in Katie’s section if she’s available. You couldn’t ask for a better evening.

    When you walk into Bacio for Happy Hour or dinner it's always a vibrant atmosphere! Last night was no exception, in fact it was super electric by the time we arrived for our early 5:45 dinner reservation. It was a combination of early Valentine celebrations along with their special Cajun additions for the season! The specials were fabulous, felt like you were in the kitchen of Commander's Palace in New Orleans! Courtney knew what we liked and made some very good recommendations! Courtney is one of our favorites! Don't know how long the Cajun specials will be on the menu, but check them out before they're gone! And, if they are gone, there are plenty of great items that will never disappoint you!
