    Phenomenal food and ambience. Service was great and prompt. It is a bit loud in there if visiting for a work meeting, but manageable. Highly recommend

    LIV provided a great evening. We took advantage of happy hour cocktails. The spicy margarita was great. The food was absolutely delicious. Intolerances were well taken care of too. The service was great and knowledgeable and friendly.
