    Tonight we had a most wonderful evening at Maggione’s with our friends. We loved seeing Yana, she’s so sweet and always has a smile when she greets you. Our server was Boris, he’s amazing. He’s friendly and so good at his job, and very well informed on all the dishes we all inquired about. The appetizers our drinks and all our entrees were all so delicious. Our dessert tray was so amazing and unexpected. He made our evening such a wonderful experience. We can’t wait to visit again in the New Year. Thank you Boris. Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New to all.

    I went w 3 kids after a visit to CAMP. We had the chocolate fondue and the kids had so much fun. My picky eater got the Mac and cheese which was also delicious. Our server was so helpful to suggest things to make our experience there memorable. My niece said she wants to come back every time she goes to the city! Thank you!
