    Always an outstanding experience every time we go to Eddie V’s. They provide such personalized service and really make sure that your experience is impeccable. The manager always makes a point to greet you and our server on our last visit, Giovanni, was excellent, very personable and paid attention to all of our needs. The food is always excellent, They make the best petite fillet and the crab fried rice is always a great side dish. We also tried the crab stuffed shrimp and calamari. The creme brulee was a great way to end our meal and the complementary dessert for my friends birthday was a great touch. The cosmopolitan was also exactly how I like my drink. Overall one of the best places to celebrate or just to have a great meal and/or drinks.
