★★★★★ 5.0 Jamison Patton · Jan 2026

The food, service and atmosphere were absolutely amazing! My husband and I went there for our Anniversary dinner on 1/13/26. The spot right to the left of the red piano was super nice. The chairs were comfy and the dimmed lights added a nice touch to the atmosphere. The employees were absolutely amazing and super friendly. I ordered the Spaghetti and Meatballs. I will say that the meatballs were huge! And the spaghetti noodles were so good and you can tell they were made from scratch. I highly recommend this place for a birthday dinner, anniversary dinner or a place you want to get fancy for. You don’t have to get fancy but for the occasion I totally loved it.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Tish C · Jan 2026

We visited this restaurant for a girls night out. The atmosphere was really nice & the vocalist who was performing had an amazing voice. Our bread came out burnt & we requested a replacement which was better. I ordered Tuna Tonnato Carpaccio for my appetizer. I didn’t like it. My entree, Chicken Marsala had a good flavor and made up for the appetizer. For dessert, I ordered Tiramisu. I didn’t like it but the other ladies loved it. Lovely restaurant but I don’t have the palate for the food.

I went to Varia with friends in November right after Thanksgiving. We went to eat their after Winterfest and seeing the battleship with Christmas lights. Varia was within a short walk of that venue. Located in the hotel. It was absolutely a whole Vibe. Upon arrival my party and I were seated right in the center in front of a red piano and Franck Sinatra cover singer. We were serenaded as we ate. I absolutely loved it. The ambiance was wonderful and Christmasy. I also like the quirky Art displayed all over the hotel and near the restaurant. But the food is what took it over the top. It was excellent Italian food. Unique flavors, delicious offerings and fabulous presentation. I was so glad I listened to the other reviews and led my group here. They all thought it was amazing. Singing along

★★★★★ 5.0 Loumag · Feb 2026

Slid in Friday morning for a quick breakfast and was really impressed. The place is very nice and comfortable, especially for dining solo. Big, beautiful comfy chairs and a TV with the news on made it easy to settle in and relax. Adrian was my waiter and he was absolutely on point. Friendly, personable, and attentive without hovering. I even asked if they could switch off FOX News because I just can’t have that playing. Management responded immediately and changed it to a different channel, which I truly appreciated. The food was excellent and very reasonably priced compared to local spots. The portions were generous. Three turkey sausage patties, a heaping serving of potato wedges, and eggs cooked perfectly. The atmosphere felt upscale, clean, and still very relaxed. I really enjoyed m

★★★★★ 5.0 Courtney Sexton · Nov 2025

I dined here last night with my 10 year old daughter (who is a bit of a picky eater). We both LOVED the fancy atmosphere, and our server, Reece, was just wonderful helping my daughter find something to order that she was excited about. The best part was the flaming tiramisu - my girl was wide-eyed! We had a great time.
