    Great food and service. Slow getting cocktails from bar after ordering. Great bangs for the dining buck.

    I had the Gnocchi and it was delicious. The Strawberry Rhubarb Smash cocktail was to die for. Perfectly balanced and something I haven’t had before. Yum!

    Lia's is always reliable and the chicken Milanese I had was good, though too small with the accompanying arugula. It was half-price night for a bottle of wine and we were happy with our choices of both red and white.
