Took my wife for brunch on her birthday. Staff was very friendly. Manager came to table to make sure everything was good. The drinks were especially good. Service was quick and tentative. I plan on revisiting and if you haven't been to Limani and highly recommended a visit. My next visit will be during dinner.

When we arrived at the reception, there were two hosts and no one else waiting. They took a few minutes to acknowledge us and eventually directed us to the PH floor, which I assumed would be the best seating. Unfortunately, I was wrong. The third floor was disappointing. We were greeted by a bar area with plastic chairs and tables without tablecloths—nothing like a fine dining experience. We were seated by a window with no view, and the entire area felt neglected. We were the only ones seated there, which made it awkward. The DJ was packing up his equipment, and a server was cleaning tables with ammonia, which gave both my wife and me splitting headaches due to our allergies. The menus were also dirty and worn out, adding to the unpleasant atmosphere. I went to the restroom, hoping for a moment of respite, but it was shockingly dirty—one of the worst I’ve seen in a restaurant. On my way back, I peeked at the second floor and was stunned by the stark difference: elegant tables with white tablecloths and a peaceful atmosphere. It was everything the third floor was not. Frustrated, I returned to my wife, and we decided to leave. On our way out, the two hosts didn’t ask if everything was okay. We went next door to Hell’s Kitchen, where the difference was night and day. From the warm welcome to the exceptional food and service, it was everything Limani failed to deliver. Sadly, Limani did not live up to its fine dining reputation. The poor atmosphere on the third floor, dirty menus, and lack of customer care made this a disappointing experience we won’t repeat.

Amazing Amazing Amazing!!! Zero complaints and worth the $600. I spent 3 times this amount at Salt Bae in NYC and this was by far alot better. The waitress was so attentive and didn't miss a thing.

The brunch buffet was definitely worth the price. I typically don’t like buffets but there were plenty of options and the food was consistently replenished. The baklava pancakes, the brussel sprouts and the seafood options were my favorite.
