Nirvana is a local treasure! Food is excellent at a reasonable price. The wine flight special was such a great experience - being able to taste 3 wines while enjoying dinner was fun. The live music was an added pleasure. The musician played lovely music at low volumes to add to a cozy atmosphere

I reserved for 8 online and under the notes section I requested separate checks if possible. I was delighted to see that the request was remembered and honored. Of the 8 of us, we had 6 different lunch choices and all were outstanding! Our server was personable and the hostess was accomodating. We had a wonderful lunch meeting!
