We decided to dine at E&O for my birthday dinner this year. E&O has always been one of my favorite restaurants in the city. The waitress we had was phenomenal and took amazing care of us. The food was outstanding as it always is. My friends and dad were incredibly impressed at the quality of the food as well. The ambiance was also lively without feeling too overwhelming or too noisy that we couldn't hear one another. I will absolutely choose E&O in the future for nicer dinners like this but also just to enjoy day to day.
