Malia's

Delicious as always. I generally eat lunch here once or thrice a month. I work in Aiken, but live in Lexington, so I've never been for dinner. Consistently a nice variety of lunch options and every meal excellent. As a former professional chef, my criteria is high. They separate components appropriately to reconstruct once back at my clinic. Only experienced take out, so I cannot speak to the quality of service.

Super great atomsphere best enjoyed in formal or casual dressy attire. Smooth Jazz in the background and mid to low noise level. Great wall art and interesting wood trellis dividing the front from the back. My fiance and I did not have to wait to be seated on a busy Thursday evening, and the waitress was kind and attentive to our needs. There was a little bit of a wait between courses, but that is to be expected from a venue that creates delicious high dollar food, not to mention that it allows your stomach to settle and your taste buds to be refreshed for the next course. Entrees were a minimum of $25 dollars, with the high end around $32 from what I saw. Entrees came with a side of salad, and a very small serving of bread. We both chose the main salmon dish, and it was top notch. Flavors were wonderful and everything was cooked to perfection. Appetizers were between 6 and 8 dollars and we were not able to sample their wide variety of alcohol selection. Soda was limited to a small selection, but no doubt because their market is more of a fine wine feel anyways. Will definitely go there again for special occasions, but for an average consumer this isn't really a monthly spend. 10/10 would recommend.
