    Made a reservation on Open Table for 4:45. Checked in about 10 minutes early and we were promptly seated right at our reservation time. Our servers name was Eric and he was fantastic. He was attentive and extremely knowledgeable of the entire menu. We placed our drink order and appetizer order which all game out in a timely manner. We all ordered an entrée and the food did not disappoint. The restaurant was clean and well decorated and we will definitely be back.

    We celebrated our birthdays with the Mediterranean Feast. I had the wine pairings. The wine list is one of the best in town. The food was spectacular, the service was friendly but professional. I couldn't recommend Callie more highly.

    Service is friendly, fast, and very thorough. Used plates, glasses, and flatware are quickly removed and replaced. The beverage and wine service are well done. The food was very good. It is a bit on the high side for what it is, but not outrageously so. And the quality of the service lives up to the restaurant's price point. My wife and I dined at Seneca on our wedding anniversary. The staff made note of that, and each person who served us wished us a happy anniversary, and the restaurant gave us champagne gratis. We would recommend Seneca to any interested diners.
