    We had our first dinner out since having our baby, and Bri truly made it an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, she went above and beyond to celebrate our special occasion. Not only did she make us feel incredibly welcome, but she also made sure to acknowledge our milestone with a thoughtful gesture that really touched us. Her service was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and genuinely caring. Bri really made this night memorable, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her thoughtful and fantastic service!

    We attended the "Italian" wine dinner. Held in a beautiful room that was very comfortable. The chef created some amazing courses that paired perfectly with each selected wine. The presentation and explanation of the wines was very interesting. Great wine, fantastic food, perfect service made for an outstanding evening. The Americana knows how to put on an event. Thanks.
