    Had a great experience at MOD Dining! The food was absolutely delicious — the crispy fried eggplant was definitely the highlight for me. Seriously, if you go, get the eggplant. Our waiter was super attentive and just a really cool person overall, which made the whole vibe even better. The restaurant itself has a beautiful atmosphere — stylish but still really comfortable. Highly recommend dining here if you’re looking for a great meal and nice vibe.

    It was a wonderful experience - a very nice place, very interesting, beautiful dishes. I found it a little hard to choose because there were no pictures in the menu, but with recommendations from our lovely host, it was overall a pretty great experience.
