    We had a wonderful experience last night having dinner at Fire & The Feast to celebrate my husband's birthday! The maitre d' was fantastic and gracious, not just with us but with every guest he sat and spoke to—he was genuinely appreciative of their coming in. He sat us at a great table, knowing it was a birthday celebration. Dinner was so delicious and hot when it arrived at our table - the food - not the plate - which is always impressive. Our reservation was at 5PM, and by 6PM, it was bustling for a Monday night, so the noise level changed dramatically by the time we left at 6:30PM. We will be back. Our thanks to the entire team!

    Eating dinner at Rimini was very enjoyable. The waitstaff was attentive, my lamb shank special was outstanding, and I even enjoyed the Italian singer who came tableside to serenade us.
