    The wait staff here are phenomenal and very personable. They were quick to bring out dishes and cleaned up dishes after we lingered over our empty plates--this was a positive in my book. The Cheese pie was really to die for. It was "weird" that there is honey spread over the top, but it added so much flavor to the pie! Trust me. Get this! Roasted Squash was loved by a anti-veggie person at our table, so it too was a really great dish. It is so full of flavor! By all means get the Greek doughnuts for dessert. You will not be sorry. One order was enough for our table of 4. The non-alcoholic drinks were true winners for us teetotalers and the wine selection was very good for those who were imbibing.

    We received excellent service from beginning to end. The food was delicious, cooked to perfection. And the dessert - Emkek - was well worth the calories - not overly sweet, combining phyllo pastry with a pistachio cream.

    We had a wonderful special occasion dinner at Julii. Got a regular table for 2 but it was located in the bar area, so the bartender doubled as working the bar and providing our table service. While he was gracious and easy with us, that double duty led to a couple delays requiring one of the floor managers could step in. Our food was delightful, tasty, well prepared, and presented with some artistry. Others were have special events that night as well, which brings out a burning"sparkler" to their table for their celebration. While visually entertaining, the sparklers spread a foul, burnt sulphur odor across the restaurant. That odor does not go well with any fine meal or wine, at least for us. Perhaps the restaurant will consider dropping those sparklers for a couple real candles. That same celebratory message would come with less sulphur. Not to worry though, we'll come back for a really nice meal.
