    Pésimo servicio y actitud de la encargada del lugar, las chicas hoostes bien, pero la señora encargada de muy mala gana contestando nuestras dudas y hasta tiró una copa que se rompió en nuestra mesa. No lo recomiendo, muy Caro para comida tan básica. Evidentemente no regresaremos, dejó mucho que desear.

    Chef Ricky and the entire staff were excellent. Food was amazing. Great New Year’s Eve spot! The staff made it special with their energy and fun for the holiday. Definitely recommend Lirica.

    Meal for seven (with kids), nearly $700. Pasta was overcooked, restaurant ran out of chicken, service was horrible, martini was poorly/incorrectly made, charged for bread basket (which was burnt bread), allergen info difficult to obtain from server. Stay away. Expensive, bad food. Poor service.

    Nice atmosphere, especially when weather is good enough to sit outside. Had the corvina, portion was small for the price you pay. Not a great value, but the food did taste very good.

    We had the mushroom on bread and calamari for appetizers, they were very salty. The cream cheese and bread neutralized the saltiness of the mushrooms. For the calamari, we had to wash it down with the lemon and dip to relieve the saltiness. The soup of the day which was chicken tortilla was also very salty according to husband. The kids steak was great as well as the quesadillas! Seated immediately, service was quick, staff were friendly, ambiance was nice. Great experience overall but should really tone down a bit on the salt.

    The restaurant is nice and the staff was attentive and great. The food was disappointing for a Christmas prefix.

    Great location. Great service. Food was above average. Quick tip- if you are driving- valet your car- they validate and cost is only $20 versus parking in the garage.

    Took my family here before the drone light show. We showed up and felt way underdressed but service was great and the food was even better. No complaints at all. I would definitely come here again.
