Twenty Eight Dine + Drink is everything modern dining should be: a fusion of global cuisines, and an open and stylish space to socialize. The interiors are such that they seem to blend the indoors and outdoors, and use plenty of natural elements. The two patios are decked in the style of a waterside lounge, while the dining room features a high ceiling, zig zag wood tiles, and polygonal golden lamps bobbing from the ceiling. The atrium mirrors a conservatory, where olive trees add a Mediterranean touch, and a high, transparent roof serves as a skylight. Well-garnished tapas dominates the food menu, where Shirley Chung, finalist at American reality show Top Chef, infuses subtle flavors of French and Chinese into American tapas. You can either go for a prix fixe meal or dine à la carte by choosing from options like Bacon Wrapped Whole Trout and drinks such as Island Sangria. The impeccable service, complimentary valet parking and chic decor help create an indelible dining experience.

Angelina's Pizzeria Napoletana is beautiful for a nice meal. Sit at the bar and order pizzas, appetizers and desserts. The pizza is good. The Brussel sprouts are delicious, but it is only on happy hour menu. Mini cannoli is a yummy dessert that leaves its mark on you. The atmosphere and service are great, and the bartender is amiable and helpful. The service is nice, and the waiters’ recommendations are spot on. Order different kinds of pizzas; all are very fresh and delicious. Their Burratina and Burrata E Tartufo are divinely decadent and delectable, and the truffle makes them just perfect! Their desserts are great as well. Calling the food delicious is understating its delectability. The pizza dough is yummy and not at all heavy. The Calamari is delicious, and so is the Panna Cotta. The cocktails are perfectly concocted. Both the meals as well as the atmosphere are great.
