    Dinner at Society was an absolute delight from start to finish! What truly elevated the evening was the impeccable service provided by our server, Ann. Her attention to detail and warm, professional demeanor set the tone for a flawless dining experience. She went above and beyond—expertly guiding a gluten-free guest through the menu with confidence and care, and offering thoughtful, off-the-beaten-path suggestions that we might have missed otherwise. The culinary highlights were plentiful. We kicked things off with the house Signature Mule and two outstanding appetizers: the rich, savory pork belly and the indulgent bacon-wrapped dates—both beautifully balanced in flavor and presentation. For mains, the fresh pasta dishes were standouts, especially the vibrant Pesto Penne and the earthy, aromatic Mushroom Truffle pasta. A surprising favorite was the duck meatloaf—an inventive twist on a classic that was both hearty and refined. To end the meal on a high note, we enjoyed a round of expertly crafted espresso drinks alongside their show-stopping icebox lime cake—a refreshing and memorable finish. Society delivers not just on flavor, but on experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking elevated comfort food with creative flair and exceptional service.
