    We were Celebrating our Son Birthday and New Year’s Day combined event. Larry was very gracious with explaining the Menu and the Appetizer Favorites. The Lobster Risotto was moist and delicious. The Backyard Burger and the Roasted Chicken were Perfect, paired with a Coke Zero and a Glass of White Wine. To top it off, Larry was very kind to keep the event low-key and place a Bday candle and a Birthday Chocolate sign on the Sticky Pudding which was out of this world, and my Son finished without sharing!!!😊 I loved the Cappuccino because it was so light and fluffy, and perfect size. Will definitely visit again for upcoming special events. Great location and Fantastic decor.

    A Dining Experience to Remember! From the moment we walked into Limani, we were greeted with warm smiles and a sense of genuine hospitality that set the tone for an unforgettable evening. The ambiance was inviting, with a perfect balance of elegance and comfort, but it was the staff and service that truly elevated our experience to another level. Every member of the team was exceptionally friendly and professional. Carlos had an impressive knowledge of the menu and took the time to make thoughtful recommendations. His passion and dedication to our satisfaction was evident in every interaction. The food was nothing short of spectacular. Each dish was a work of art, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. From the appetizers to the desserts, every bite was a testament to the kitchen’s skill and creativity. But what made the meal truly special was how effortlessly the staff anticipated our needs. They refilled drinks without being asked, timed each course perfectly, and even surprised us with a small complimentary treat when they learned we were celebrating a special occasion. It’s rare to find a restaurant where both the food and service excel at such a high level, but Limani has mastered the art of hospitality. By the end of the evening, we were already planning our next visit. If you’re looking for an extraordinary dining experience, this is the place to go. We can’t wait to return!
