Bibi Ji is a fantastic spot for excellent Indian food. I loved the Makhni Dal, from Rajat Parr's mother's recipe. Everything is delicious and authentic. With the dinner, I enjoyed the Bibi Ji Orange Wine from the Parr's Real Wine company. The chef, Israel Romero, has learned well from founding chefs Jessai and Gary Singh. The new space is lively, bright and modern and very much busier than the old location. Congratulations to Alejandro Medina for a very successful move and renovation.

Consistently great food. We opted to forgo some of our regular favorites and tried some new dishes -- the Chicken Saag and the Fish Moilsee -- and both were excellent.

We had the best time last night at Arnoldi’s! It’s been literally 50 years since I was here last! We arrived early- 5:30pm- and it was nice and quiet. By the time we left- 7:30- the restaurant was full and a bit noisy. The food was amazing and our waiter, Silavano, was so sweet and accommodating. We couldn’t have had a better experience.

A truly charming place. This cozy Italian restaurant has the feel of a neighborhood, vintage gem. The extensive menu includes lots of salads and antipasto, a great selection of pastas and inviting main courses featuring steak, chicken and fish dishes. Our entrees were perfectly prepared and presented with rich and pleasing flavors. Service is very attentive and friendly. We very much enjoyed our experience there.

The food and the wine were excellent as was the service and the ambience. The only reason I removed a star is that it is extremely expensive $18 for a half a glass of wine seems a little over-the-top to me.

We brought some friends from out of town, and they thoroughly enjoyed everything. Wine pairings were requested and suggestions were spot on. Prix fixe menu is a fantastic value. Highly recommend, we will be back soon.

We are adding Black Sheep to our regular dining options in SB and shocked that we hadn’t tried it before. The early bird 3 course fixed price meal was simply amazing. Unique flavors, good choices for our two different preferences, and a price that we felt almost wasn’t fair to the restaurant. Service was totally attentive, they just got their liquor license and made a great vesper martini. The regular menu was very interesting so we will definitely go back to try more items. Great venue too, felt cozy.

My boyfriend and I visited SandBar last night, and overall, it was a great experience! The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and we really enjoyed our time there. The raspberry margaritas were so refreshing. Definitely a highlight of the evening! I couldn’t stop raving about it! We started with the bean dip, which was delicious… until my boyfriend bit down on something incredibly hard. It might have been a rock or something similar. It was a bit jarring, but the staff was very attentive, and they took care of the situation immediately. For the main course, I had the ceviche, which was mostly incredible, but I did find a few chewy and weird pieces of fish that weren’t quite as fresh as the rest. Despite that, the flavors were spot on, and the dish was pretty refreshing overall. Despite the little hiccups, the food and drinks were still amazing, and the service was fantastic. I’d definitely come back and give it another try!
