    The Meatball appetizer was light and melted in your mouth. We really enjoyed the Hog Snapper and the Lobster Ravioli. The Funk desert was recommended by the waiter and it marvelous and not to be missed. First visit to Caffe Violetta in over a year and it is better than ever. Attentive service and cozy ambience. An easy 5 stars.

    Perry’s Steakhouse made our Valentine’s Day lunch an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and an elegant yet comfortable ambiance—perfect for a romantic celebration. The food was nothing short of exceptional. We started with their signature Pork Chop Bites, which were incredibly tender and flavorful. For the main course, the filet mignon was cooked to absolute perfection, melting in our mouths with every bite. The lobster bisque was rich and creamy, adding an indulgent touch to our meal. The service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive. Our server ensured our glasses were never empty and even surprised us with a beautifully plated dessert to celebrate the occasion. Perry’s truly knows how to elevate a special moment with incredible food, top-tier service, and a wonderful atmosphere. Whether for Valentine’s Day or any other special occasion, it’s an experience worth repeating!

    Erba was absolutely stunning restaurant for my date and I to celebrate Valentines Day. The food and cocktails were made with care and quality locally sourced ingredients. Everything was 10/10 at Erba. It was both of our first time and the knowledge of the staff was educational and made the dinning a top notch experience. Recommend this for dates, impressing people, quality food, quality cocktails, ambiance, business meetings, and closing deals. Will go back many times. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
