    The food, cocktails, and service were all excellent. We had several sides plus the 16oz steak and sea bass. The steak was so tender and the sea bass was the best we ever had. Our friends’ cocktails were great; my sake flight was awesome; and my husband loved the beer selection. The interior is sexy yet warm and comfortable. Loved our experience at Animae and highly recommend for a special night out!

    My friends and I love Seneca, we keep going back to this place every time we hang out. The pizzas and pastas are so yummy!! We’ve tried a few things from the menu and there hasn’t been one we didn’t like. They have a good variety of pizzas, pastas and appetizers. They have good mocktails too, the cucumber is my favorite! And I don’t drink alcohol so I haven’t had any cocktails but from what I’ve heard those are good too! The staff has always been super friendly and welcoming and the view is breathtaking! I highly recommend giving this place a try! 🙂
