"I do not know who Pistol P is or what his agenda is... but AKI is the BEST SUSHI YOU WILL FIND ANYWHERE!!!! I have traveled the entire world and you aren't finding this quality sushi anywhere except Japan. Furthermore, the owners are the same owners that opened this amazing establishment! As far as service goes, it is first rate. Everyone is so kind and attentive. For anyone wanting the finest, freshest fish this is THE PLACE!"

"the food freaking amazing. the tea is so damn good. will deffo go back. the service is pretty bad when the place is packed, partially because it 's really obvious the kitchen can 't keep up. We had to ask repeatedly for things, including food. We ordered the Prince William tea and also the a la carte scones, we asked for the sweet scones as the appetizer and the savory ones for the tea. We were brought out the savory for the appetizer and never got the sweet ones despite waking 4 times. We also weren 't given the soup that comes with the tea service initially and had to ask for it. The fruit and cheese selection was also missing from the tea service. The Prince William Tea was not worth the price, $50 is an excessive amount for what you actually get, but it 's kind of like part of that amount is the experience. Also we didnt get the fruit and cheese that was supposed to be on it nor the sweet scones, so it was short of items. Even if we had gotten them this tea service didn 't stack up to multiple other placed I 've had tea. They also call all the teas high tea when they are actually afternoon/low teas; high tea is actually just dinner served with tea, not the small plates type tea. It 's a little bit of a pet peeve of mine and a tea house should know the difference. Low and High refer to the table everything is served on. Wealthy people sat in nicely appointed parlors and tea was served on low tables (think the modern coffee table), high tables are dining room tables and the working class would take their tea then with a hearty meal. The charcuterie board was really good, one of the best we had. The shepard 's pie my husband got was delicious and my bangers and mash were fantastic. Both came with more savory scones and the best tasting mashed potatoes you could ever ask for. The salad dressings were also tasty, my husband absolutely loved the ranch. If you wanna do afternoon tea with all the cakes and stuff go to Windsor Court (or Sucre if they ever start doing it again). We went at 3pm, it lightened up A LOT around 4pm. So in the future well go much earlier in the day for like breakfast or something or closer to 5 for an early dinner, but Fridays and Saturdays are always packed. I 've worked in resturants, in front and back of the house so i know the struggles. Our waitress was incredibly sweet and engaging. the place is just horribly understaffed for busy times. We had a similar experience at hands down the best Italian restaurant ever (Vincent 's) when it was a busy mad house. So, i mean it happens. Having waitress/waiter stay friendly qnd engaging despite knowing everything is going to hell in a handbasket goes a long way for me."

"Dining at Del Porto is more than just having a meal; it’s an experience. The husband-and-wife team, recognized by James Beard, creates a warm, welcoming, and sophisticated atmosphere that encourages you to linger and enjoy conversation. Every item on the menu, from the simple charcuterie board to the beautifully crafted dishes made with locally sourced ingredients, is absolutely delicious. And don't overlook the drinks! If you stop by for a glass of wine after 5 PM, you might get the chance to try one of their newly created fresh fruit cocktails, inspired by a bountiful citrus harvest from the local farmer's market. Be sure to accept their invitation! Additionally, the Solazzos are deeply committed to the community they serve, contributing food to local nonprofit fundraising events and participating in downtown arts festivals, which help draw visitors to the area. In short, I can't recommend Del Porto highly enough."

"an unpleasant experience from the beginning. As soon as we came in, we noticed a bad smell that reminded of water that was in the air for the whole meal. we sat down and got dirty cute, slightly used serviettes from the table next to us, and water that tasted as if it had a kind of cleaning chemicals jewelry. we filled the water from the car and drank it instead. the foods sold for the premium prices of $20, and while the fried items were in order, everything cooked like garnel, kartoffeln and mais were extremely overcooked. I was relieved when I got the bill and could leave this place. Save your money and go somewhere else."

"Fantastic food! Whenever we visit Covington, this is our go-to restaurant! Tony and the rest of the staff are wonderful – they are not just excellent employees, but they also provide impeccable service. I know Lemon Drop martinis may not be trendy right now, but no one makes them quite like Tony! From the appetizers to the entrees and fried rice, everything is absolutely delicious."
