    I discovered Lia's this year and it has become my go-to place. Good food, good service, nice ambiance (although last night it was filled to capacity and it was a little too loud, next time I will ask for a back table). I love the place!

    Everything was perfect for my birthday celebration. The waiter was perfect--attentive, patient, and helpful in every way. Combine that with delicious food that we were able to share, and you have a great luncheon treat.

    Our visit couldn’t have been more wonderful! Brittany was our server and managed to multitask between her duties behind the bar and making sure that we were comfortable at all points in the evening.

    We have eaten at the restaurant several times & each time the food is authentic Italian cuisine. The wait staff is attentive and the appetizer bread basket & spread is delicious. We celebrated my wife’s birthday there recently and our waitress, Morgan, was amazing! Our new fav waitress for sure!!! Smaller establishment so on a Friday or Saturday the noise is what you’d expect for a top notch restaurant full of patrons.
