    Jackie provided a warm and vibrant experience last night at Secco. We enjoyed the atmosphere (decor and holiday music were a nice seasonal touch) and food (stacked sushi was delicious). We were seated in one of the two window tables which we would highly recommend. Overall a very enjoyable evening.

    It’s always appreciated when Steven recognizes me and greets me by name. I brought a friend for her first time and she had a great experience! Her martini was made perfectly (she has a specific request) and she can’t stop thinking about the whipped feta. Thank you as always!

    We booked a table for dinner for family and they loved the ambience of the place and the hospitality provided by the owner Suzy. The food was quite a mix of flavours and really worked well for us as we were looking for some different delicacies to try in vegetarian. The place also offers gluten free food which was a plus as we had friends who wanted gluten free items. All in all a pleasant evening in a warm environment made for a lovely dinner.
