    I was staying the Lowes hotel for business and stopped in Farena for dinner. I was greeted by the host and seated right away. I was eating on the earlier side so there wasn't too many people in the restaurant. The waiter came over right away to take my drink order. They have a wine and cocktail list with a handful of different beers available. I started with the beet salad, wow it was good! And the portion, I could have finished my meal with the size they provide. I didn't want anything too heavy so I went with the chicken and mushrooms. I was only halfway through my salad when my meal came out. I was a little disappointed by this. There were only a few other tables seated at that time, I would think they could do better with timing. The waiter was apologetic and offered to put the chicken on a warmer but it was already on the table so I just let it go. The chicken was good but not great. The brown sauce was loaded with salt which I'm not a fan of. I had a side of asparagus which was pretty tasty. The food was not cheap, my bill was a little over $100 for one glass of wine, salad, entree and a side, no dessert or coffee. For the quality of food that was more expensive than I would expect but you are in a hotel.

    Our family had a fantastic experience here at Farena. The staff is fantastic, the environment is inviting and warm, and the food was absolutely delicious. For starters, I strongly recommend the Citrus and Beet salad as well as the garlic butter braided bread. As for the main course, the pork chop was perfect and the pasta was exquisite. Overall, a 5 out of 5. We'll be back! Be sure to ask for Sarah for some of the best service.one can receive.

    Let me start by saying I’m not a big Italian food fan. This restaurant was a huge, pleasant surprise. I ate every meal here during a long weekend because I could not get enough. I did try 3 different desserts but I wasn’t crazy about any of them but their meals - so flavorful and fresh. Sarah and Kyle were my favorites - so friendly and cheery - they made the meals even better.

    Phenomenal! We celebrated our anniversary dinner at Farena yesterday. It was our first time and it exceeded our expectations. From reserving a table, the host was so kind and gave us a table with a fantastic view. Our server, Sky, was awesome! She was so kind and helpful giving us her suggestions, which were amazing! We started with the Calamari, which we really enjoyed, then ordered the Spaghettino with Grilled Shrimp and husband ordered the Pappadelle--both pastas were delicious. We also tried the Margherita Pizza (amazing!). Our cocktails, aside from looking incredible, tasted even better! We truly enjoyed our anniversary dinner. The whole staff were very professional and friendly. Our dessert was on the house, which I thought was truly sweet of them, it had different layers and textures of chocolate--very delectable, we couldn't stop eating! We will definitely come back! A wonderful experience!
