   Excellent food prepared perfectly. Professional servers. We were celebrating my son’s graduation from college and couldn’t have picked a better place. Highly recommend.

   Where do I begin, on the positive side the service was excellent. We sat in the large dining room and it was absolutely freezing in there, not only me but my dining companions on a 20 degree evening. Two recent visits the food is not what it was with prior owner. Lettuce for salad was old and filet was overcooked and tough and tasted like fish (cooked next to fish?). Baked potato was so small, I did not even know they had potatoes that small and literally was barely even warm. Dining partners commented the same with their steak, potato and salad. Pasta dish other dining partner not strained properly and in plate of water. Sorry to experience this theme on recent visits, but new ownership brings unfortunately changes, not all of which are good.

   Thank you for the feedback, we are thrilled you enjoyed excellent service. We will look into the issues you raised. Were you able to speak the management and get your meals replaced. The ownership has been the same, as it was for your recent visits.

   Great holiday lunch. Service was very attentive but not overbearing. Chicken spedini was amazing.

   Always look forward to our dinners at Latin King. Staff is so friendly and courteous. Food is delicious- my favorite is The Gamberi Diavlo. My husband always gets prime rib or NY strip. Great appetizers and cocktails too@
