    I went to an early Valentine’s Day dinner with friends, and it was truly a memorable experience. The atmosphere was enchanting, with soft candlelight flickering on the tables and gentle music playing in the background. Each dish we savored was a culinary masterpiece, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The highlight of the evening was definitely the exceptional service provided by the manager, Cliff, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic time. His warm hospitality and attention to detail made the night even more special.

    This was not our first visit to Mythos. They were busy but it took a good 10-15 minutes for someone to come by to take our drink order. Additionally, the wait staff does not tell you about off menu offerings unless you specifically ask. The food has always been great but the service, although friendly and polite, needs some polish.
