   Great place! I was looking forward to a ribeye, but they were out, so I opted for the New York strip. Not my favorite cut, but it was prepared exactly as I wanted and very flavorful. The waiter was very polite and attentive. He made us feel welcome. The atmosphere was nice and romantic and the food was delicious!

   The food and service was excellent! We would have preferred a booth or separate table for just the two of us, but overall the dining experience was exceptional.

   Excellent meal! The Hong Kong Mussels were possibly the best mussels we've ever had! Everything was very good, including the service from Sophia. If we're back in that area, we'll definitely go back.

   Our dining experience was just average. I was expecting much more as I was comparing it to Dante in Cleveland.

   The food was amazing and the service was excellent. The furniture was a little run down (i.e. our table was pretty wobbly, tears in the chairs and chips in the table) and it was a little loud to have a private conversation but the ambiance was very nice. The art, lighting and theme of it was excellent as well.

   It was a good experience overall. My only comment or suggestion would be when you have an item on the menu that says pappardelle with beef and pork ragu then the dish should have beef and pork in it. I ordered that dish and could not find any beef or pork in it. The flavor was good but it was just pasta and sauce. The other food was great.The service was a little rushed, the atmosphere was exactly what we needed to be able to enjoy conversation with family.

   Very disappointed. Upon arrival realized this was a tourist trap. Dimly lit hallway leading to not so clean restrooms, scuffed up table. Friendly service but food was less than chain restaurant quality. Fried calamari was dry and included tiny, tiny shrimp. Two “tastes” of macaroni were a gloppy carbonara and a fair bolognese. Rolled out without ordering an entree.

    Really upset about our experience. We have been to D.B.A. before and loved it. We came tonight for Sweetest Day. Order the muscle- hands down the best!!! They were clearly short servers. Our serve was very kind but we could not get drink refills when clearly empty for some time. Then came the meals I ordered the scallops my husband ordered medium rare steak. Food came I my scallops were clearly under a warmer for a while. My husband’s steak the waitress watched him cut she said “oh that is well done.” So she took it to have it redone. I ate my scallops and we waited and watched multiple steaks come out. When I was done with my meal my husband approached the waitress and said we would just take the bill. She came over and said she would take the steak off the bill (which was crazy since we never received it) and offered a free desert. I don’t care so much about the money it o sat for 25 minutes eating my meal while my husband watched- odd! Really disappointing experience and even more the flip response. We paid the bill and tipped the waitress but so disappointed that we won’t be back.
