    We had a lovely experience at Limani. There are few restaurants these days where you can have a quiet conversation with friends over delicious food. The ambiance was terrific. We were seated at a spacious round table that made it easy to hear each other. We had oysters as an appetizer as well as their mushrooms. Both were great to share over cocktails. Two of us had the grilled lamb, one of us had the lobster with linguini, and the final diner had the dorado fish. All were cooked perfectly. We shared one dessert. While the restaurant is a bit pricey, it is well worth it for the quiet and beautiful atmosphere and wonderful food. I recommend it highly!
