“Had a fantastic birthday celebration for a family member at Dreo! We had an amazing night from the moment we walked in the door to finishing desert. Lisa, our server greeted us promptly, and reviewed the drink and dinner specials with us. The drinks were amazing and we ordered the charcuterie plate for the table. So good! Everyone loved their meals, especially the shrimp linguini dinner special. Everything was cooked perfect. Desert was great including a decadent chocolate cake for the birthday celebration. Service by Lisa was impeccable and we can't wait to go back!“

“Went for the paint and sip night and felt like they could’ve been more organized. We was told what tables we could choose from immediately when we entered from the bouncer at the door for the event but soon as we sat down we waited 15 minutes before getting a server or any acknowledgment and we wasn’t given any instructions on where the canvas or paint supplies was. Other than that the food and hookah and drinks was really good and when we finally got a waiter he was attentive the whole night!“

Charles the manager was easy to work with making our plans and made sure everything ran smoothly and as planned. He was helpful, professional, responsive and friendly.

“The wonderful company, great food and world class hospitality made this a night to remember. Colin truly blew us away with his table charm, mastery of the menu and making you feel at ease at a high end restaurant. We didn’t indulge in the cavier or the truffles that were with shaved tableside with white gloves but there’s always next time 🤣 The icing on the cake was meeting Izzy. He wasn’t our server but always came by to check on us with a smile and I had to ask him to stop calling me sir and he apologized and said thats how he was raised. This establishment employs the best of the best and it shows in the overall experience. 10/10 would recommend.“

“I dared to go for my first time on Cinco de Mayo and was not disappointed. Ya, it was crowded, service was on the slower side and our order was not quite right, but given that it was probably the busiest day of the year for Flaco's, I give them five stars!

The atmosphere was festive, (the restaurant was full with a wait) the drinks were amazing and the food was delicious. The menu had many choices, prices are fair, the decor was a bit dated but gave me the feeling of being in Mexico. Had no kids with me but the kids there seem to be having a great time, with a small arcade to play in, so imo kid friendly!

I noted that the ALL the folks working there, including the owner, were giving 100% to their customers. From the hostess to the cooks, they were working hard and it showed. Everyone was very friendly and in my opinion the chaos provided for a fun, celebratory atmosphere which is what we wanted! Anyone that is complaining on this day needs to stop, what did they expect on Cinco de Mayo?

Support small businesses and give them a try!“

“I had a wonderful experience with Friendly Reds. We had them cater our daughter’s birthday and deliver the food. Food was delicious as always- food was delivered hot and they allowed us to use their hot boxes to keep extra food hot as well. We had one little mess up with the sternos when they set up the food (they forgot the water trays) so this caused our first tray to be burnt. When we realized it and called them they offered to come right down and fix this and even refunded all of those trays. The customer service was wonderful and they were very responsive. Delivery was on time with friendly staff. Ordering catering was very simple and easy. Payment was easy (and prices were very reasonable!). This was our second event we used friendly reds for and we plan to continue to use them for catering!“

The oils they fried our shrimp and spring rolls with tasted fresh also. I don’t live in the area and have this when I’m down sometimes. But today I thought to myself I would drive the almost two hours just to eat here because I know I would be happy. The drinks are also very good.“
