Enjoyed the ambiance and experience at Rimini very much. From the calamari to the meatballs, it was fresh and flavorful. Tony was a hit with the singing! Happy to have found Rimini and will be back very soon.

First time trying Sparrow. My friend and I had 7:30pm reservations on a Saturday night and the place was pretty full. Both of us got the mushroom burger that came with yam fries and we shared the truffled deviled eggs appetizer. All items were very tasty and filling. Would like to give a shout out to our server Cassie. She was very attentive, friendly, checked on us multiple times, wonderful service. Great overall experience!
