" tried Varia and enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere. The music paired well with the mood. Food-wise, I found my seafood risotto a bit lacking in flavor compared to other dishes I tasted at the table, which were outstanding. However, the attentive service overshadowed the slight miss with my plate. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was fortunate enough to go to Varia on a busy Saturday night. Despite the hustle, our server was calm, attentive, and ensured we were well taken care of. The devotion to authentic ingredients really showed in the delightfully fresh caprese salad and delectable margherita pizza. The atmosphere was vibrant - perfect for a night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible experience at Varia! The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a date night. I tried the eggplant Parmesan, which was incredibly flavorful and a true representation of authentic Italian cooking. Our server, Kaylee, was attentive without being intrusive. Will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Varia after hearing so much hype, and I was not disappointed! The service was exceptional and the food genuinely tasted authentic. The gnocchi was creamy and rich, but I felt the portion sizes for pasta could be a bit larger. Regardless, I left feeling satisfied and eager to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wonderful atmosphere for a night out! The service was quick and efficient. I enthusiastically recommend the pasta specials—the flavors were vibrant and truly authentic Italian. My only complaint is the portion sizes; I would love to have more! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience at Varia! Our server, Ashley, was so friendly and ensured we felt special on my partner's birthday. Each course was a hit! The eggplant Parm was divine, but the dessert stole the show—creamy tiramisu that melted in my mouth. Can't wait to come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had my birthday dinner here with my family and it was a lovely time! The food was delicious, especially the braised short ribs which were super tender. However, I do think the dessert portions were a bit on the smaller side. The waiter was superb and made sure we had a great evening overall. " (*Curated Review*)
