Excellent food great service very cozy and inviting atmosphere.

Went on Valentine’s Day and they had a special menu. We had the pork chop and the halibut - both outstanding and tasty! Enjoyed the music in the background . Can’t wait to bring friends Next time!

Me and my fiancé had a lovely Valentines dinner. I definitely recommend the Pekín duck, although it seems that just about anything made there is fantastic. The Valentines menu was a fixed price, so it was a little bit different in value than it normally would be, but the service was fantastic and friendly. If you go to F1RST, they will do their best to give you a 5 star experience all the way through, and I feel that they succeed. The atmosphere is a bit more modern, and it feels almost like eating in a house. From what I can tell, everything was quite pristine, as it is a newer restaurant. The only qualm I might have is that gratuity was included, which I was not alerted to beforehand (as least that I know of). It is possible that this was just for Valentine’s Day because of the fixed price, but I can’t be sure. It was what I would have tipped anyways (standard 20%) so it didn’t upset me too much. I just would have liked the notification beforehand is all. Even the starter bread was delicious, as when I received it and began to dip it into the Pesto they provided (which is a bit of a unique and welcome turn by the way), I just knew I needed seconds! If you’re looking for a more upscale restaurant to spend an evening, but you’re worried about not getting enough bang for your buck, come here and you won’t regret it! And if anyone from the restaurant happens to see this comment, thank you again for a lovely evening! I’ll be sure to come back again :)

The food was fantastic as usual. The fried calamari, ravioli pertuso, & the pollo scampi sandwich are always family favorites. Also, Arturo is the absolute best!

Good food and drink, reasonably priced, and we always have a good time on trivia nights
