    Spent our second Valentine dinner at Kuzina. Just like the first, the food was plentiful (took home leftovers both times!) and delicious. We managed to squeeze in a dessert flight which was all good but loved the baklava best. The staff was friendly and responsive. In spite of the restaurant being busy, as you would expect on Valentine's Day, the food came out quickly. We recommend this place for the good food and atmosphere but warn you, come hungry!

    It was a beautiful dinner and the outstanding service made it all the better. It was a really perfect night, we sat outside and I wouldn’t have known the difference whether we were inside or not. They were so accommodating when I asked for a few extra things for my kids, great place and we will be back.
