    Went for New Year’s Day lunch. Good and service were great! Our server recommended his favorites and we went with a few of them and they were delicious! Got the calamari and hot crab dip with pita which everyone enjoyed! Seafood was cooked on point and our group loved the house made pasta dishes as well! Definitely be back for more!!

    This was a wonderful surprise and is why we like OpenTable. We were searching for a last-minute place to eat and went to OpenTable right away. It is always a great way to try a new restaurant without feeling like you are throwing darts at a board. Offcina did not disappoint. The service was excellent, and the food was fresh and delicious. We were here the day after Christmas, so it was a light night for them, but the staff was attentive and provided the service you would expect at any top-notch restaurant. The Michelin rating is well deserved. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
