    We enjoyed dining at Aracosia on Valentines Day. Our only concern was we ordered cocktails that didn’t arrive before our food.The server reported the bar was very busy. We cancelled the cocktail order and requested a glass of wine to have with dinner. The server delivered it promptly.

    Sisters Tyson’s did not disappoint. I frequent their Mosaic location, but this was a different level- beautiful, spacious dining room, cute crepe cafe and of course yummy authentic dishes. Seemed like an expanded menu, but I didn’t really do a comparison. Service was attentive and impeccable without being intrusive. The crepes smelled divine-will definitely return just to try some.
