    Interesting blend of Asian and French. Delicious flavors and beautiful plate presentation. Attentive service. First time for me, hot stone cooked steak and flambé at the table - then fresh kale ice cream and chocolate cake for dessert. Would recommend both!

    The food at Colletta was exceptional as was the service. Everything came out in a timely manner. We ordered off the lunch menu and there were plenty of choices. Last trip here we had dinner and that was another great experience. I wish we lived closer so we could go more often but it’s worth the drive when we go.

    We went to Rey’s to celebrate my retirement. Rey’s continues to impress with its consistently excellent food. Our server, Kelly, made the evening especially enjoyable. She was exceptionally attentive and courteous, striking a perfect balance between ensuring we had everything we needed and respecting our dinner conversation. It’s rare to find such thoughtful service, and it truly enhanced our dining experience. We’ll definitely be back!
