    If you manage to dine for dinner on the early side before 6:30 pm, any day of the week, ask about the twilight special: appetizer, entree and dessert for $23.95. Amazing value. Great, tasty choices.

    Nice Italian w/gourmet kids menu. Many good choices for adults. Bacon Bar specials on Wed./Thurs. nights, incl. chilled tomato soup w/bacon, fried tomato sliders w/ bacon. Eat al fresco in the summer.

    The Ricotta Donuts were amazing, wish I hadn't stuffed myself with the spaghetti before hand. Order dessert first, this way you can savor every one of those heavenly bites. ;)

    All Day Happy Hour on Monday and Tuesday is a must! Great drink/Food specials and the 8.95 Mega mug is hard to pass up for beer drinkers.

    If you love a good burger and can’t eat wheat the Lia’s burger with gluten free bun is incredibly good.

    You can't go wrong with Lias, I've never had a bad meal. I prefer sitting on the bar side where you can order the full menu, plus awesome happy hour prices.

    The branzino is delicious. Crispy skin with light flaky fish. The orange and beet salad are also great.

    The Bitches Say: B. Lia's brunch is above average with excellent service, a few key dishes, and unbelievable doughnuts. Unfortunately, the musty smell was off putting and some dishes were bland.

    Must drink: Uncle Arnold cocktail. Good but dangerous! To eat: scallops with risotto. Sublime. And the tiramisu is great, not the run of the mill.
