Casa de Bandini Clients Reviews

From: Lauryn Sherman Ljsherm@gmail.com

Message Body:
Hi Casa De Bandini Staff,

I wanted to write you all a complement for the service I received last
week at dinner.

Some friends were town from far away who wanted a good Mexican Food
experience. My family has always loved Casa de Bandini, so I invited them
there.

We had an excellent dinner. Arni was our waiter–he did an excellent job!
The food came out quickly and was perfect (thank you to the kitchen
staff).

Thank you so much for so many repeated excellent dining experiences. I am
grateful for the gluten-free menu too–this is one of the few places I can
come often and feel comfortable.

Keep up the good work!
Sincerely,

Lauryn Sherman
