Safina Restaurant & Bar features modern, Mediterranean inspired, healthy cuisine. It will have seating to accommodate up to 155 guests, including a private dining area which can seat up to 18 and a full service bar. Safina is about celebrating the diversity of the Mediterranean through inspired and refined food that is thoughtfully prepared to emphasize the true flavors and the quality of the ingredients of the region.

Seafarers ruled the Mediterranean bringing riches to empires. Coastal towns established fame for luxuries and for mercantilism that continue to exist to today. Without seafaring vessels, this would not have been possible. It is the simple invention of boats and ships that created the bounty of the Mediterranean and it is there we find inspiration in our name, Safina. Safina is Lebanese for “boat.” Beautifully humble in its simplicity, confidently assured in its purpose. This mix of humbleness and confidence is found in our food, service, and experience

    I have only one word: Overpriced. Food OK+. 7/8 on a scale of 0 to 10. but not for an average $40 per dish.

    Great service and food, the restaurant is part of the intercontinental hotel, next to the lobby, a bit noisy.

    The food and service were absolutely on point! Everyone in our party raved over their meals. The brussel sprouts appetizer and the hummus were both wonderful starters to a fabulously delish meal.

    Very nice late evening meal and great service. Lights along mural wall are LED and too bright, but otherwise very nice first experience.

    I'm generally a tough reviewer and don't give out full marks, so getting nearly full marks is a very good score from me. I wish the table I had let me get my feet under it (a large, round pedestal kept me from doing that). I loved the live music. A little cool (temp) for my taste, I felt a little chilly even while keeping my sport coat on. Very tasty entrees!
