   My mother in law from WV who always orders an app with her meal eats her app then after a few bits of her meal, always takes her meal home. Not tonight! She ate every single bite of her app and meal, then actually ate the newly added to the menu pound cake that was out of this world best pound cake ever. I’d say that speak for how amazing the food is!

   My recent visit to Fin & Fino for a birthday dinner with their $70 tasting menu left much to be desired. With high hopes after hearing recommendations from friends, my expectations were unfortunately not met, resulting in a disappointing dining experience. Upon informing our server that I didn't care for spicy foods but adored seafood, I was assured that the tasting menu would be customized to my preferences. However, the dishes we received seemed to be the opposite of what was communicated. Each dish was laden with chilies, leaving my taste buds overwhelmed and my stomach unsettled on the way home. Our server, although kind, seemed to have overlooked the details of our order. We were explicitly told that we wouldn't receive the pasta dish, yet it was ultimately served to us, and the pasta was severely overcooked. Additionally, my partner's hanger steak was requested without jalapeños, but it arrived with the very ingredient we asked to omit. It felt as though we were served leftovers or items the kitchen was trying to get rid of, rather than carefully curated dishes. The quality of the individual dishes was also lackluster. The Cajun oysters were particularly off-putting, with only one bite leaving me feeling ill. The poke bowl was underwhelming, consisting of a disproportionate amount of spinach, white rice, and avocado, with only a few pieces of tuna and salmon. It seemed like something I could have easily prepared at home. Drink refills were slow, and my final drink never arrived. Considering the recommendation from friends, perhaps the uptown location would have provided a better experience. Ultimately, I was left disappointed with the quality of food and service, and I am uncertain whether I would return to Fin & Fino Birkdale Village in the future.

   Wonderful dinner with friends. Their first time to this location. We did The Treatment where our waitress brought a variety of dishes after asking about our likes and dislikes and she nailed it every time! Every dish was wonderful!

   Food was very good….our seasoned server did an equally very good job but the rest of the staff perhaps are new to restaurant service? My husband’s halibut was perfectly cooked; my special : the linguine with shell fish in a garlic cream sauce was excellent. Cocktails were very slow; the bartender was overwhelmed. My drink needed to be corrected and made again. The table was not cleared throughout the evening. We handed extra plates, used glasses etc to staff passing by. Noice level is quite loud….use the valet parking! A very nice service to have at Birkdale on a Saturday night. The developers overbuilt; there’s extremely limited parking.
