Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Society offers a vibrant dining experience with "amazing decor" and "fantastic atmosphere." Guests rave about their "incredibly yummy food" and "outstanding service." The whipped feta appetizer is a must-try, and the cocktails are a hit. While some found the noise level high, the diverse menu and attentive staff make it worth a visit.

    First time here and everything was super good! The inside of the restaurant felt very fun and classy, great ambience. The food was great came very fast, our server was very attentive and had great recommendations. He seemed very knowledgeable about everything on the menu. I had also requested and custom momento menu for an anniversary and it came out lovely. Only downside is that the lighting is a bit dim.

    We all had a wonderful time and meal as we celebrated one of our birthdays. Even got a customized Happy Birthday menu! Food and service (Erica) were outstanding. Five in our party and we enjoyed appetizers (meatballs and feta dip were fabulous), drinks and delicious pasta dishes and salmon. Can''t wait to go back!

    First time here - great ambiance and decor. Sat at the bar where the service was actually not great. They didn't take our order for a long time and didn't check back often, but the food was very good! I will definitely go back!

    Service was not good. They did not come and offer for a second round of drinks until our food had come. Food was meh for the price. They were out of the wines we wanted.

    Had a little mishap with my leftovers in the kitchen and the manager came out and took great care of the situation. I appreciated the great service and food.

    Such a delightful surprise! Once inside the ambiance is so pretty and romantic. Our server was very knowledgeable about both the wines and the food and didn’t steer us wrong. We loved the Hamachi appetizer - very different but delicious. Their pastas are homemade and we enjoyed the Pasta a la Vodka and Lemon Lobster - both were excellent. Highly recommend!

    The waiter we had forgot about us and we waited over 30 minutes before we were able to ask another waiter for the check. The special custom menu I ordered was not provided to us, and I had to leave the table to ask the host.

    First time to Society and it was amazing! Service was top notch. Came in for a quick bite before a show at the Arizona Theatre Co. so the staff ensured we were served quickly. Food was spectacular - both the humus dip and bacon wrapped dates were delicious. Will definitely be back when we can spend more time there!
