    New Year’s Eve in style!! What a fantastic time we had tonight!! Our server Linda blew it out of the park, she was attentive and made us feel welcome. The Linguine and Clams were delicious and the Chicken Parmesan did not disappoint!! Caffé Martini for dessert was a perfect way to end the evening!!

    My family enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Martini Modern Italian in the Short North on December 22nd. I ordered the chicken carbonate after the waiter said that my meal could be cooked with no onions and no garlic. It was delicious! I'll be glad to return for another dinner.

    Beautiful restaurant. Sat at the bar, service was impeccable. Food was excellent. Went with the bartenders recommendation and it did not disappoint. Will go back when we are back in town.

    Had my birthday dinner here last night, while the food was great, the server was honestly pretty rude. I didn’t have the best experience when every other time it has been great. I felt like we were annoying/bothering her the whole time because the only time I felt that she was nice was when checks were about to come. Hurrying me to drink my martini so she can pour what was left into it and kept telling me to keep sipping. When I asked for a filthy martini, she goes “oh so a dirty martini” condescendingly. When the second one she brought was the correct one, but still charged the same for both. I brought a party of 10 for my birthday dinner and I just expected to have a good experience. This didn’t sit right with me.
