    My first experience with Hestia. I went for lunch with friends; easy and ample parking very near entry to restaurant; upscale, quality feel to restaurant; friendly, attentive and accommodating service; FOOD WAS AMAZING!!! I believe the price point is more than worth it for the high quality food, experience and service! I believe Hestia was a very successful 'experiment' and I am eager to go back.

    We made a booking for 630 on a Thursday night. Upon arrival we were told by the hostess that we could only have the table for one and a half hours. We decided to go ahead and eat anyway but before we were done our server told us we had to vacate the table. However we were disappointed that the time limit wasn't clear at the time of booking. After we left I checked the booking and the 1.5 hour limit is in very fine print at the bottom of the page. If we had know about the time limitwe would have made plans to go to another restaurant to have dinner. it is impossible to relax and have some food and drinks in one and a half hours. When we explained the situation to our server she was very gracious and allowed us to stay until we were finished our meal including dessert and tea. I am glad we were allowed to stay and I enjoy the food and ambiance but there should be a note for diners upon booking if there's any time limit. Otherwise we had a great experience!
