    My niece and I had a lovely dinner. I asked for a quiet table as it can be pretty noisy at Josephine. We were seated at the very back, and it made conversation easy. Our waiter was excellent. I have multiple dietary restrictions and he helped me to choose. I had the trout, which was very tasty. My niece had the scallops, which she loved. She had vanilla ice cream for dessert and I had the mixed berry sorbet. Both are housemade and delicious. I've been to Josephine a number of times and appreciate that the menu changes seasonally. A nice touch was the manager stopping by to check on us.

    We had a phenomenal meal at Mia’s during the Christmas season. Kicked it off with the giant meatball, which my kids said was the “BEST EVER” (I’ll stop crying next year), and followed it with a great round of entrees including the branzino, chicken piccata and kids meals. Cocktails and dessert were also delicious. Staff were attentive, warm and prompt. Great spot with great decor for your night out in Old Town. Will be back!

    The food is consistenly good here and interesting although it is generally American cuisine. The place is cozy but it is loud and for some reason the music is even louder. I would recommend that the music be turned down significantly. The employees are very friendly and professional
