   We loved the open feel of this place with high ceilings and subdued lighting. The table as split on the Calamari and Shrimp appetizer - one person thought it was great, but another felt it was too chewy. The Branzino with capers, lemon sauce, potatoes and arugula salad was amazing. The meat lasagna had way too much cheese. Our server Arsim provided excellent and friendly service throughout our meal. We are looking forward to returning here again to try other dishes.

   Our waiter was attentive without being annoying. This is a lovely and comfortable restaurant. We all liked the sleek, modern look. There were enough tables spaced far enough apart, so that it was easy to hold quiet conversations. The menu is not the usual Italian fare, with several dishes that included balsamic or feta cheese. It's fun to try something new, but I missed having a few tomato saucy options. The prices were reasonable, although the portions were a little on the small side. The complimentary bread and oil were tiny, thin and not refilled. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the baklava cheesecake was wonderful. The chicken parmigiana was a hit.

   Excellent service and food. I wish we would have taken pictures, but we are everything before we thought to take pictures. It was half price wine night and they had excellent options for wine. We started with the meatballs and the sauce and the garlic toast that came with it were wonderful. My husband had the meat lasagna and added the Jimmy’s sausage; I opted for the salmon and shrimp special that came with basil risotto. My husband loved his lasagna and the salmon, shrimp, and risotto were cooked perfectly. We will definitely be back!!!

   The portion sizes were prefect - not too much, not too little. We finished everything on our plate without feeling overstuffed. It’s a fantastic spot to try something new. We ordered Burek, flaky, savory, and satisfying. I highly recommend it. We even had room for dessert, which was a nice way to end the meal.

   While the food was good, the musician was entirely too loud and he was awful! It made the dining experience almost unbearable.

   The country music was so loud we couldn’t talk to those at our table. Who has country music at an upscale Italian restaurant…we have dined at Dua many times and the service and food quality has declined. I had the Tre Funghi which came with Polenta yet it was hard and full of large lumps. Our guests did not finish their Sea Bass as it was not even warm and raw I doubt we will go back.

   This is our second time to the restaurant. We loved it even more the second time. Every single staff member was fantastic, gracious and friendly. The food was extraordinary. Can’t wait to go back.

   We ate there on a Monday night… in a booth in the bar. Lovely experience. Angelica was wonderfully attentive and gracious. Thx for a great start to the week. Music was low. 🙏💕
