The Lioness restaurant, run by renowned Chef Renee Erickson, offers an exceptional dining experience. Known for its fresh Kumamoto oysters and delicious cocktails, this cozy and upscale Italian spot is a must-visit. The attentive staff goes above and beyond to accommodate guests, even providing outdoor seating with space heaters for privacy. The menu features a variety of Italian-inspired dishes, including a standout Cavatelli pasta, as well as some vegetarian options. Whether you're a local or a visitor, Lioness is a great choice for a special meal, with a welcoming atmosphere and a focus on small, shareable plates. Customers have praised the "family style dinner" as a treat, with impeccable service and remarkable food. The gem lettuce salad and Cavatelli pasta are highly recommended, though the chocolate cake may not be everyone's preference. While the experience may be on the pricier side, the quality of the food and the exceptional service make it well worth the visit.
