"Alia is a dream for diners who love to discover a neighborhood gem that foodies will also adore. The Italian/Mediterranean menu offers creative twists on familiar dishes, as well as perfectly prepared traditional favorites. Ask the owner, Said who is as caring, delightful and charming as they come, and his conversation is reason enough to go for his signature Magic Chicken. It's a robust festival of flavors, featuring chicken and eggplant Parmesan. Not sure what you'd like? Said will make you something special. He loves a challenge! The portions at Alia are generous, the prices are reasonable, and the service is personable, so bring your appetite (and a bottle of wine, for it's BYOB, but there's a liquor store a minute's walk away) and prepare for a marvelous evening."
