Chira's | Restaurant and Catering

A fantastic restaurant with excellent food, good service, good drinks, if you like them, sweet, and a very pleasant atmosphere.
It can get a little loud, and the piano and other music can also get a little loud, but otherwise, a lovely place to have dinner.
The crab cakes were absolutely fantastic and some of the best I’ve had in a long time.
The Parmesan crusted halibut was absolutely delightful and full of so much flavor.
The wife got the crab ravioli that was very rich, but had so many wonderful flavors that it was hard to not eat the entire thing in one sitting.

Beautiful warm restaurant with live music.
The service was great.
The food was even better.
They are a bit spendy but a great place for a date night.

Owner response

I had reservations at Chira's Restaurant & Catering on Valentine's Day. The service to start was terrible.
We waited 10 min without even seeing our server.
When she finally came by we ordered everything right then.
Two drinks, appetizers, salads and the main course.
It took 15 min to get our drinks.
Mind you we are both from the service industry so we are very mindful of how busy a place is.
But when you watch three tables from your servers section leave in the time you sit there it is something you can't let go.
We got our drinks, our app and salad at the same time.
The crab spinach dip was not as advertised.
It was an artichoke dip with crab on top.
It was not bad but not very hot.
The main course was the worst.
I have never ever ever had to send food back before.
But this was by far the worst looking meal for $45 and $54 I have ever had.
It took an hour and 10 min to get our main course mind you. My chicken was so dry it was hard to cut.
The veggies were ones that you would put in fried rice not as a side dish for a fancy meal.
They were so small and it tasted as if they were slightly boiled and that was barely any flavor.
I asked two people if I could talk to somebody about the food because the first lady ignored me.
Finally I asked another lady and she told another lady.
So when she came up she said, I hear you want to talk to me.
I said, are you the manager? She said I guess, I was like okay.
This is what's going on.
I informed her we understand you are busy but the food is not to par for this price and we can not even eat it.
She understood and said she was terribly sorry and they would comp our meal because we took one bite each and then they gave us a gift card to come back next time.
She said this is a unique time for us, so come back and you should have a better experience.
They handled it very well, but I definitely am sad that the food was not what it should be at that type of restaurant and that cost.
But we ended up having an amazing rest of our evening.
