    We enjoyed our meal at Delia’s. We were there Christmas Day and the restaurant was full. Our server was terrific but could have used more help. She did everything, no busboy or water pourer. Food was excellent and interesting. Menu included a range of price points and the wine list was good. Overall a good experience and I would come back anytime.

    We chose Vaso's for lunch as we were in the mood for warm Mediterranean food due to the rainy cold weather and we were glad we did! We really enjoyed the triple dip with pita - especially the tzatziki (which the server told us was made in house) appetizer. For lunch, we ordered the special (gnocchi with pesto) and the classic Greek platter - and needed boxes to take home what we could not finish. Our server was very kind and attentive, and the busser ensured that our water glasses were always full. We were glad that we had lunch at Vaso's and intend to eat there again soon.
