    Went to celebrate my anniversary, the atmosphere was amazing! We ordered the Short Rib which did not disappoint - plus it was a great price. The churros with salted caramel ice cream was the cherry on top. Great service and great food!! Highly recommend the Domingo’s experience!

    This place is excellent. The Prix Fixe was just what I needed. The lamb “upgrade” was well worth it. Best I’ve ever had. I was torn between the butternut squash soup and the beet salad. Since I decided to sit outside, the beet salad felt like the better move. It did not disappoint. The dessert trio “upgrade,” also worth it. All three selections were delightful. I would also recommend the Malbec by the glass, as well as the bread service. The outdoor seating was also quite nice.
