    Great food and lots of fun choices for meats for each person. Little bit of upselling to get the whole table to order the holiday price fixe menu, but we stuck with the menu. Would return for another dinner.

    My friend and I had a lovely experience at Smyrna (our first). Our meal included the house specialty - Branzino. Delicious. The menu offers many options. The Moscow Mule was excellent. The staff was warm and welcoming. Highly recommend Smyrna and will be back.

    Amazing experience. Couldn’t have asked for more from a restaurant. Authentic, high-quality food, generous portions, professional and attentive staff. And they even took our birthday cake, added candles and helped us sing to my wife, then plated it. Really made our birthday celebration special.
