    Sitti seems to have gone down in the food department since our last experience with them over 3 years ago. Their dishes seem overpriced and quantities are surprisingly small. Quality left a lot to be desired. Kale was not fresh, mango salsa was raw, salmon and shrimp was tasteless.
    SittiResponded on March 19, 2025
    Rahul, An apology is in order for not meeting the expectations of a great meal with great service. Your feedback is important, whether good or bad, and will be brought up for discussions. Its disheartening to hear that a good memory was tarnished with your most recent visit. We'd love to invite you back to rectify, if interested, as we hold pride in our abilities here. Feel free to reach out.
