If you have a special occasion to celebrate, Verse should be your choice. We celebrated my b-day, and so did the table next to us and an anniversary two tables away. I gave 5 stars in all areas except the value, and only because the menu is quite pricey. We ordered Melamente, Pancho and MADD city cocktails; excellent creations. Following most of the reviews, we had the milk buns and octopus as appetizers. For dinner entrees, husband ordered the Branzino and I Crab Capanelli. We were not disappointed with the appetizers. Milk buns melt in your mouth; the whipped brown butter has the perfect sweetness. The octopus was cooked perfectly; so tender. I don't know how the chef came up with all the different sauces on the octopus but oh so delicious. So husband was a little disappointed with the Branzino as it was fairly plain when compared to the octopus. The crab capanelli was cooked al dente and the sauce was creamy with the right amount of saltiness. The toasted almonds added the unexpected crunch and well combined with the richness of the sauce. The only neg here is that it was difficult to locate the crab; the chef should really double up on the amount. Service was excellent as expected; ambiance - not too dark with just enough lighting to read the menu; and the live band added extra points to this special occasion. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience.

Very good food, the restaurant is spacious, and service is excellent.

The staff was exceptionally great during our last visit. Every single member of the staff checked in and were so nice and accommodating. The food and drinks are always superb and even though it was cold out the heaters were blazing and made it comfortable. The lamb humus and the pear brie pizza was soooo delicious. Oh and they have gluten free pizza dough which is huge for me. I’m a fan I’m of this restaurant.

Was really impressed with the restaurant when my husband and I first arrived. Server was really attentive. Once we got our food, it's like we didn't exist. We had finished our drinks before our food got there. All they did was take our plates and empty glasses off the table once we finished eating, didn't even offer us water or a refill. I wanted another drink but after waiting 20+ minutes to even find our server or get him to notice us. We just asked for the check. We opted out of the optional service charge and let our server know and his first response was a rude "Why?!" He then tried to guilt us by saying "Okay, I'll just take off my tip and bring you dessert." Which we declined since we waited so long for the check, I didn't want to wait any longer for a little dessert. The food was DELICIOUS though, just wish it was ruined by the poor service.
