Customer Reviews
P H E N O M E N A L!!! My husband and I came here for our anniversary because we have been hearing such great things about this restaurant. It is for sure a HIDDEN gem - IYKYK type situation - given that it's so tucked away. Don't do like we did and pull up 10 minutes before opening, sneak into the locked door behind an employee arriving for their shift, and get on the reservation list for 5p. Just call a couple days before - YOU WILL NEED A RESERVATION! People were lined up outside before opening to eat here... on a TUESDAY 🤯 Upon entering, however, we understood what the hype was about. This place transports you to a magical land. The ambiance is stunning. The front hosts are so warm and welcoming. We sat at a cute little 2-top and were greeted by Colton who took our drink order. Then so
Food and service were both absolutely fantastic. We had Gregory as our server and he was phenomenal. The rose and limoncello at the end were such a great cherry on top. It was our first time and we will definitely be back!
Everything about this place was 5 stars! Went for a birthday dinner with my hub, and it was so fancy. I absolutely loved the decor - The dining room is set up to feel like you are sitting outside in Europe under the stars. The food was absolutely spectacular, and despite being extremely full, I managed to inhale my dessert, which was fabulous. Absolutely plan to visit again when we have friends in town.
I ordered a veal dish. I have always received a cutlet when ordering it at other restaurants, so that is what I was expecting. Sadly, that was not the case. I received thinly sliced meat that reminded me of deli roast beef. My husband ordered a pasta dish that he thought was great. Next time I will stick with something I know.
We hosted our wedding reception at Connected, and while many aspects of the experience were wonderful, I do want to share both the highlights and an important detail that others may want to know. First, the positives: the food was absolutely amazing! Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented—our guests are still talking about it. The staff were equally fantastic: professional, kind, and attentive throughout the evening. Tony did a great job of rearranging space to give my husband and I our own table. They truly went above and beyond to make us and our guests feel welcome and taken care of! However, I was disappointed that we didn’t receive full access to the private space as we had originally discussed and planned for. Leading up to the wedding, it was communicated that
