We had an absolutely amazing experience here. The staff were so nice and went above and beyond to make sure our family was accommodated. The food was delicious as well.

This is such a cute restaurant. The food is good, there is an extensive drink menu, and the dessert is delicious. A little on the pricy side compared to the amount/quality of food you get, but the atmosphere makes up for it.

A solid Italian spot, standing firm and true, where complaints are few and praises are due. Yet, in its essence, it doesn't inspire, not a spark or a flame of culinary fire. It serves its purpose, makes no waves, in the realm of dining, it behaves. A reliable choice, without the flair, offering dishes prepared with care. Not a place for culinary quests, but for satisfying Italian food requests.

This was our first time at Lillies and we were excited about this neighborhood gem that we've heard about. We were also excited since they were on Restaurant.com and we had purchased a gift card to use. We came on a Wednesday night and noticed on the chalkboard outside the restaurant that they had weekly specials. Wednesday nights are 1/2 priced bottles of wine. At first glance, the restaurant is very cozy and inviting while still maintaining a chic, elevated ambiance. Once seated, we let the server know that we'd be using a Restaurant.com gift card and she kindly let us know that they do not accept them anymore. That was the first disappointment but understood that maybe they haven't contacted Restaurant.com yet to take down their profile. Then while looking at the menu, my partner noticed there were discrepancies on the menu booklet and an added page (specifically the price of a bottle of wine). When she was taking our appetizer order, my partner asked if there was a difference between these two bottles of wine to explain the price difference and she said no they are the same. So he ordered a bottle of wine and asked to confirm that it would be half off. She said that the restaurant doesn't do 1/2 off bottles anymore, even though it was written on the board right outside the restaurant. So it seems like the restaurant is going through some changes, but Gaby was kind enough to ask the manager to honor the special, which she successfully did. For my main, I ordered the recommended Lemon Chicken Soup. I was extremely disappointed with the quality of the soup. To me, it was clear that this was not housemade; the chicken and vegetables were cubed similar to canned soup and there was no trace of fresh lemon juice (or any lemon juice for that matter). I asked Gaby if it was homemade and she assured me that it was. Overall, I didn't have the best experience but I am going to try again and hope that this night was a fluke.

Dinner with friends on a cold January night. The food was outstanding as was the service! The ambiance was wonderful! One of our party was gluten intolerant. The chef made appropriate meal recommendations and was spot on! We'll certainly be back to LiLLiES soon!

We chose Lilly’s because it was close to our hotel but it was such a disappointment. The food was very ordinary. Marinara tasted like it came out of a jar, the vegetables were barely cooked. Most of the food needed salt. We were excited to come and have a cozy Italian dinner but it was not tasty. The servers were kind!

Made a reservation. Showed up to "closed for private event" sign on door. Went in to see what was going on. Staff said they were closed for private event, didn't I see the sign on the door, as he walked away from me.
