    This was the first meal in quite awhile in a restaurant that from start to finish was amazing. I know why my parents loved it here. My seafood bisque was smooth with bits of crab and shrimp and delicious. It was served at the perfect temperature. The branzino was perfectly cooked and seasoned great. The spinach and polenta with it was delicious. Cannolis and cappuccino for desert were the perfect end to a wonderful dinner. They were very busy but our server was attentive and timed her visits to our table perfectly. We didn’t feel ignored or rushed. Definitely one of the best meals I’ve ever had!

    This was our first time dining at Petunia's. We went on Valentine's Day. They had a prefixed special 5 course menu. Everything was delicious. The restaurant had a warm & cozy atmosphere. The servers were fun, friendly, and very attentive. Looking forward to going back soon. Thank you Jessica , our server, and Ashley & Nick for a memorable evening ! ❤️

    Great service they hooked me up with the window seat I wanted for Valentine’s Day, food is always phenomenal so many choices that’s a good problem to have. This is our favorite place in SIC because they are so consistent. Even through the pandemic, the food quality the service has been rockstar quality keep up the great work. I went and bought a gift card right after dinner for my son

    We went for a nice Valentine’s Day Dinner . Our reservation was at 3:30 , however, we arrived much earlier at 1:00 o’clock . We went to the bar for a drink and they seated us early at 1:30. Drinks, food, waitstaff, everything was great. We were happy there was a lunch menu so the portions were better for 2 people.
