    This was our first visit to Bistecca, and it was an experience we’ll never forget. I’m currently battling cancer, and my best friend planned a girls’ weekend getaway before my next surgery. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel special. They surprised us with a beautifully decorated table complete with flowers, candles, and a cancer warrior bracelet waiting for me when we sat down. The service was exceptional, the food was incredible, and the drinks were absolutely divine. Every detail was thoughtful and heartfelt. To top it all off, they even sent us back to the hotel with a bottle of champagne. During a season that has been filled with doctor’s appointments, treatments, and uncertainty, Bistecca gave us an evening filled with joy, friendship, great food and drinks and feeling truly cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a more memorable or meaningful experience. Thank you to everyone who made our night so special. ❤️
