We went to society for the first time for my 30th birthday and it was a pleasant experience. We got wine, 2 appetizers and 2 pastas. All the food was excellent and our server was very friendly and personable. Will definitely go back and would recommend to anyone wanting good food and a fun and elegant atmosphere! Is perfect for a birthday dinner, girls night or date night!

Went for my birthday, I loved the atmosphere. The vibe was very relaxing. Love the decor the decoration. Authentic Italian food. They personalized a menu for my birthday, and I got a free dessert. The food was absolutely delicious. The waiter was fantastic as well.

Absolutely loved this place! The food was really good! The dessert was good too! Make sure you ask for the happy hour menu when you go around their opening time. The guava cocktail was a little too sweet tho, so maybe consider something different if you’re not into really sweet drinks.

Some of the best food and drinks I have had in a long time! Service was amazing and there wasn't one thing we all ordered that wasn't phenomenal. Atmosphere is so cool and great for pictures.

Another amazing meal. Love love love the whipped feta appetizer. The mussels were perfect as was the Alfredo with added chicken. Neither of us finished our dinner but we were tempted to keep eating because it was so good. Attentive service by a lovely very personable wait staffer who had a trainee in tow. Elevator closest to the restaurant has been inoperable both times we have been there but there is another elevator on the north end of the building if stairs are a problem for you.

This place impressed me right away with the incredible atmosphere. This is the perfect place for a date or celebration. The food was better than expected. It’s a bit on the pricier end, but the pasta was creamy and decadent. The steak bites were an excellent addition, but $9 is a bit steep. Still, I’d recommend adding in a protein of some sort. Service was a bit slow, but it was busy, and you can tell the waiters and bartenders truly care about providing a great experience. I’ll be back.
