    The atmosphere, food and service were excellent! Ask to be seated in the section with server, Julien, who is extremely professional, friendly, knowledgeable and resourceful! Both the Caesar salad and kale salads were wonderful, the steak frites was grilled (rare) to perfection and the roasted half chicken was so juicy! We stayed late and the vibe got even more lively! I highly recommend Bar La Rue for a great night out!

    Went to Nia the other night with a group of work colleagues and had a great experience. We were the only ones there. Didn't even look at the menu. I'm big fan of tapas and we got to try a lot of dishes. Nia was there and took great care of us ordering things she knew we would like after asking some questions about food preferences and staggering the delivery over reasonable amounts of time. Wine was reasonably priced. Leave room for desert. I'm not a big fan of cheesecake. Nia's was a little different and was outstanding as was the creme brulee. Overall terrific experience. I'll be back.
