Amazing, friendly service. The grilled octopus and tenderloin dishes were outstanding. The dessert was delicious.

Killer baby back ribs. Outstanding great time wife's birthday / anniversary

We got ignored quite often! Food was just mediocre! It took forever because the server really didn’t have any help!

Salmon was delish. Cooked well and season nicely. It Sat on a bed of kale in a delicious sauce that coated the salmon. Service was top notch! The only issue is the included tip of 18% for a party of two. Plus it’s coded as a service charge. Not sure if by design. Then below the bill, it prompts you to add to the service charge/tip further $ to increase the tacked on 18%. Just call it what it is is, a tip. I would simply allow patrons to decide what tip to leave. Especially for parties less than six. Just a suggestion.

Round two at Cupitol last night. The owners were welcoming and recommended the Braised Lamb Shank. The most tender Lamb shank I’ve ever experienced. It was accompanied by whipped potatoes in a Bordelaise sauce. We also revisited the fabulous Pancherri Pasticio and Mediterranean salad that my friend recommended. Definitely add some extra Greek Feta mouse to the salad! Both were as good as my last review. We finished with the Key-lime tort cheese cake. The key-lime flavor really pops and caps and exceptional meal. This is a great spot to take your significant other. My better half noted how relaxed and welcome she felt. It’s a warm setting with neutral colors and a crisp/fresh feel. We’re looking forward to our next experience!
