    Wonderful for the whole family. If you have a member who is gluten free- this place is a home run! The “older” people in the family love that they can hear themselves speak. Too many restaurants blast the music & people are shouting across the table. Our servers were efficient, friendly & witty. The calamari is always a hit with everyone!

    The hostess and our waiter Calvin (!) were extremely accommodating. They went above and beyond to get a part of 3 that turned into 5 seated at a lovely round table! We all loved our food, as well. I will always return to 44X10.

    I was with a party of 10 for a business dinner, and our waiter Tre did an outstanding job tending to us, and every ask/need. He was polite, patient, and swift in everything that he did. We visited on a Tuesday at about 8 pm. and it was pretty busy since it was Cinco de Mayo; nonetheless, the service and food didn't leave the impression that the staff or restaurant was overwhelmed given the light crowd they had (as expected for such a day). Overall, good food (per usual, as I've been here several times), great service, and I will be back again! Thanks again to Tre, for making us feel welcomed and tended to. The guy did everything with a smile and haste.
