Great atmosphere, warm lighting and decor with a relaxing ambience. Efficient and friendly service. Varied and interesting menu selections and free of the eternal and uninspiring steak and green beans offering. Would definitely return and recommend.

Christmas Eve Seven Fishes dinner was truly spectacular! The newly remodeled restaurant is beautiful, and the ambience was warm and buzzing. Can’t forget the food — which was wonderful. Owner Ellen Yin was there circulating and helping out the staff, which really made the whole night special. Thank you Fork for helping make this year’s Christmas festivities memorable!

We had a wonderful evening at Paloma! Our waiter was fabulously attentive, knowledgeable about the menu. We shared guacamole and the Tostado de Cameron. It was light and refreshing. There were 4 to an order and not too big and not too small. Perfect size for an appetizer. I had the one of the specials. Butternut squash and shrimp in a lobster-based sauce along with ricotta. It was amazing. We all enjoyed our meals very much! We brought tequila to add to the delicious pitcher of Margaritas. Although a bit loud it was a great evening of great food!!
