    Limani was PERFECT for our pre-show dinner. The staff were incredibly attentive. The VIEW and restaurant were beautiful. The food was delicious, and we loved their oversized wine glasses! We had the grilled Calamari, scallops, ceviche, Halloumi Cheese, Lemon Potatoes and more. It was really lovely and the waitstaff could not have been more on top of everything. I had gone during their first week and I can say it has only gotten WAY better!

    The venue of a 100 year old bank was splendid - beautiful gilded coffered ceiling, rails, etc. Lovely chandelier. The music was too loud for the large space. Our server was excellent and attentive. We lucked into 50% wine night, and almost all bottles were included. Nice treat. We opted for the chateaubriand which was very good in an updated way with marrow (great for dipping the filet) the best garlic mashed potatoes and garlicky broccoli rabe. Simplified but not. I felt the price was over the top at $185 for 2. A splurge, but... Will be returning the next time in town.
