Well decorated inside, great theme...But the only positive. Eclectic menu, pricey and extremely small portions. So small that we had a second dinner nearby. Drink pours were tiny too. Wish the experience was more positive.

We went to A Light in the Attic last night and sat in the actual restaurant level. It was amazing from the hostess Candice to the bar tenders to our waiter Vlad. The food & service were great and the ambience was great as well. I definitely recommend it and reservations are needed. Make sure you ask for the restaurant level and not the private rooms in the attic.

Unique place with unique food. The ambiance was lovely and service fantastic. The food was very creative, however the menu seemed rather limited if you didn't want wild boar or a vegetarian meal. Had hoped there were more fish or seafood options. Hubs and I shared everything, the fav was the ahi tuna. The bombolini were too much dough and not enough meat. The berry cheesecake was unimpressive and very small. When I go back, and I will, I would sit in the bar area and enjoy the creative cocktails and a few appetizers, but nothing more. Lived the vibe but ask to avoid the restroom vicinity, as there was a line for most of the night for the single unisex bathroom. Also, be prepared to claim some steps, extra step lighting would've made the descent easier in the dark.

Great special occasion stop. The food was amazing, unique drink menu. Wait staff was fantastic. The only issue was we were told at we had to leave our table because someone was waiting for it. While I have zero issue with them needing the table, if there is a time limit on the reservation they really need to make that known up front. Will definitely go back

Expensive but cool experience. Staff and service were great. Drinks were good. We had several apps (I do not recommend the salad) and I had the ribeye as the main. Definitely get the béarnaise sauce on the side...my steak was extra saucy.

Unbelievable dining experience. The menu is innovative and everything surpassed my expectations. The flavor combinations are crazy good. All the cocktails are legit and go down way too fast. The vibe is perfect. It's a true experience.

Awesome atmosphere, great food and drinks. Staff were very knowledgeable about their menu. A little bit pricey, but very much worth it in my opinion! The lobster toast was amazing!!!

Great ambiance, delicious food, and a wide selection of cocktails and wine. We had a great night out. Graham aka Grant was helpful with cocktail and menu suggestions, and his charisma really added to our night out. Looking forward to our next visit to A Light in the Attic!

Atmosphere can't be beat! It's almost magical. The cocktails were incredible, and the food is some of the best I've had in a long time! My wife got the ribeye, while I had the lobster toast. I highly recommend both! Definitely worth checking out this new, hidden gem in West Reading.

It was nice to try for a date night. My husbands palate was a bit overwhelmed and he longed for a baked chicken. ? He loved the bread. My mashed potatoes were good. Def priced right for the portion and additions.

This place is great! It is quite an experience to dine here. The moment you walk in it is very beautifully decorated. We made reservations online and we were seated right away by a very friendly hostess. Our waiter gave us a very detailed run down of the menus before we decided which was nice. All the drinks and food we had was very well crafted and presented. It all tasted amazing and came out in great time. I highly recommend going this place a try you won’t be disappointed.
