    Cane here for a late Valentine's dinner. This was our second time here and food was delicious just like the first time. We ordered the duck, the rocky Jr. Chicken, escargot and the goat cheese cheesecake was an absolute must to finish off our meal. Staff was super friendly, and food came out in a timely manner. Definitely has become one of our favorite restaurants!

    A fun experience! Came here for Valentine’s Day with reservations and had a smooth experience. Because of the holiday they only had a 5 tasting course. It was a bit packed understandably. The drinks were amazing! The food was a culinary experience. The service was on par. We were there for close to 3 hours however because the food came out very slow, however they gave us a discount because of it without us even asking. Amazing attention to detail!

    We thoroughly enjoyed a romantic and delicious Valentine's Day 6-course chef's dinner at Cori last night. The service was exceptional -- all staff were friendly and professional. The presentation of each dish was beautiful and the black truffle lobster risotto was especially memorable. Excellent Italian wine selection from every region of Italy.
