We had an unforgettable evening at Giulietta celebrating my wife’s birthday. From the moment we arrived, everything was flawless but what truly made the night special were our amazing servers/bartenders, Emma and Susie. Their warmth, attentiveness, and genuine enthusiasm elevated the entire experience. The food was exceptional, as expected from a Michelin-recognized restaurant, but it was the personal touches from thoughtful recommendations, perfectly timed service, and the care they showed.
