    The cocktails were all prepared really well, the relish tray was the perfect amount for the 5 of us, and our brunch dishes (3 Benedicts, a brisket hash, and the omlette) were all delicious. Catherine took care of us and shifted her position when she noticed that my dad couldn't hear her. That's a level of attention that many don't have (people, let alone busy servers)!

    Service was excellent and the food outstanding! Definitely get the bruschetta with ricotta appetizer. We had the spinach ravioli, chicken vodka, and chicken parmesan. All were cooked just right and the flavorings and textures were well balanced and complementary. We told the staff that we had a show and limited time and they expedited the entire meal but with no sense of rush. We recommend Maialina 10/10!

    Fabulous downtown Christmas experience at Harry and Izzy’s! The French onion soup was out of this world. ( We brought our own scissors…) The prime rib sandwich was very tasty, but I could have done without the onions on the buns. Now. The service. H& I always has incredible service but on this evening, Sean (our server) went above and beyond!! Always attentive to our needs and my Coke glass was never allowed to be empty. Can’t wait to visit again in the near future.
