    First time dining. We liked the ambiance outside and inside immediately. Staff was courteous and friendly. Seating was spacious and comfortable and music was not loud but upbeat. There were specials for Valentine's Day weekend. My wife much to my pleasant surprise chose the duck tacos as her appetizer which was great because then I got to sample one as well and we both agreed that they were a keeper. Sushi was up next which was fresh with just enough flavor and "zing". We love sushi. My wife judges each establishment by her main course of branzino and half-way through announced that we would indeed be returning. I had a veal chop which came "old school" Italian flatter than a pancake, bigger than the plate, and invisible under a sea of greens. I never knew veal could be that tender. Before I knew it, my plate was empty, but not before my wife could not stop sampling the salad topping. Desert was a pleasant surprise of apple beignets. We love anything that reminds us of dining in New Orleans. With a bottle of French wine, all was savory and satisfying. I would put this Eisenhower Park oasis on your dining list. Kudos to Niko and Zach, and Thank You!

    Another great night going to Totos. As soon as you walk you your greeted by Koka. She is a wonderful bartender who makes great drinks and even better conversation. When seated the server and owner both came to welcome us. We ordered 2 different Veal dishes that were outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant. Service and food are both top-notch. We have been here 3 times and each time is a great experience. We will be returning.
