Siena Restaurant - Mediterranean Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

We went to Siena on Sunday around 3:30. They were out of the bottle of wine we ordered, so we had to order another one. When we got home and looked closely at our bill, they had charged us for 2 bottles! We ordered the creme brulee and they were out of that also. The food was good, but the broccoli was not cooked at all. I could barely cut it. The worst thing was that they had a card on the table with a code you could scan to pay the bill. They automatically added 25% tip! If you changed it to 20%, the total still came out to 25%! We finally just paid the normal way. This place is a rip off! Never going back! read more

Food & decor are A+. Service was a massive letdown that clouded the overall experience. The decor is really well done. The vibrant teal and green gives a great setting. The bummers - The layout is cramped at the doorway with the hostess stand with not enough room for 5 people to stand and not be in the way of tables & wait staff. Music is a tad loud for the space and somehow they supposedly have live music some nights. We were sat pretty quick and then didn't have a server come by for quite some time. The hostess, which seemed to likely be management stepping in, noticed and acknowledged she was sending someone over. Since we had time to wait, we order our app and some drinks immediately once the server arrived. Drinks then took considerable time to be delivered, wine poured without tasting, spilled wine on the table that was never cleaned. Then we watched others that ordered after us getting their apps. Server came and took our dinner order and no acknowledgment of our app. She frequently disappeared to the back. It is a small place. Easy to see all the other staff bustling about. Well over 20 minutes and when we finally flagged the hostess/manager who was running food to tables around us, to check on our app, our server came by right after to tell us our food would be out soon & we had to point out we never had our app and she said something about if we wanted an app? She was always very friendly but seemingly completely clueless on anything other than taking an order. Our food was delivered on top of the app. The food. Absolutely amazing. The hummus was super smooth, so much flavor, and the nice crunch of the roasted chickpeas with the grilled pita - chef's kiss. Extra unfortunate we didn't have it earlier. Chicken Tawook, lamb chops, lamp shank. All plated like art and phenomenal taste. Ending of the meal equally frustrating. People smothering us to clear the table as we are trying to finish our meal. Not fair to hurry us to turn a table when we had to sit so long without proper service or our food. The food was so wonderful here but the service for the cost of the meal didn't live up & really hurt our experience. Kudos to the hostess who was seemingly stepping in best as possible. read more

TLDR: extremely overpriced for what you get. Save your money and go elsewhere. Smells like sewer. Unkept building. Review: We eat out once or twice a week and we go in wanting to like a place. It started in the parking lot. The landscaping is completely overgrown. The weed we parked in front of was as tall as our car. There are plastic flowers staged around the entrance that look like someone saw what Delbar does and tried to copy it on a budget. We hadn't walked through the door yet and we were already adjusting our expectations. Then we walked in and were hit with the smell of sewer. Not a whiff. It took most of the meal before we stopped noticing it. Our server was the biggest problem of the night. She couldn't explain the menu, didn't bring silverware when the food came, and then there was the upselling. Every single course came with a suggestion that costs more, and not once did she disclose it. She recommended a second piece of bread and we said sure. of course, It was an upcharge. My wife ordered a drink and got steered toward a top-shelf tequila. My friend ordered a margarita and got the same treatment. When I ordered the pasta she asked which protein I wanted, phrased like it was included. It was $15. I had to figure this out on my own. That would have been a $30 plate if pasta. One sentence would have fixed all of it: "you can add a protein, the prices are on the menu." She never said it once, all night, to anyone at the table. The whipped lavender appetizer she pushed hardest was plain whipped ricotta. No lavender, nothing special not wirth the price. It came with one piece of bread. Bread was basic Sysco with grill marks for pizazz . (Hey management, Why would an appetizer come with one piece of bread?) My pasta was called Bucatini something Nero, so we assumed black or something with squid ink. It was cream and parmesan. Cooked al dente but chunky instead of velvety, buried under so much parmesan I scraped it off. The burrata was small and cold, which is fine, that's burrata. My friend ordered the lamb shank and got lamb chops. The server fixed it by grabbing someone else's shank. The lamb itself was excellent, genuinely. The pureed potatoes under it were so starchy they were closer to fufu than mashed potatoes. The branzino was fine. My wife's filet mignon was the most expensive thing on the table: five small pieces, bone dry, not a trace of pink anywhere, in a marinade that read sour. The rice next to it was styled to look Middle Eastern and tasted like nothing. The orange sauce on that plate was the best thing we ate all night. Calamari was not bad but the plate had a thick layer of grease. Her prosecco cocktail came out room temperature and flat, garnished with a mint leaf that was half black. I pulled it out before it fell in. It was the only garnish on the drink and they chose to put a huge mint leaf with black rotten parts? Damn. Wild. No non-alcoholic options besides and overpriced rose and some mocktails. This was a Friday at 7pm. A musician was sound checking at full restaurant volume the entire time we ate, same song over and over, adjusting his settings. Four of us at one table could not hear each other. Dessert was actually great. The cheesecake was good. We ordered coffee with it, and she never brought it, never came back to check on the dessert, and never mentioned it again until we asked for the check, at which point she asked if we still wanted it. We wanted to leave. Paying was its own event. You scan a QR code at the table, and she handed us one from a different table that didn't work. Then we found out 20% gratuity had already been added for a party of four. She came back with a printed receipt to walk us through a discount she'd applied, fumbled with it, realized she'd printed the wrong one, disappeared, came back, and showed us $5 off. The $5 was her correcting her own mistake charging us for the wrong lamb. Over $330 for four people. I came home and ate a bowl of cereal. So disappointed read more

Siena Restaurant - Receipt - Mediterranean Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

FIRST IMPRESSIONS (before you even walk in): The parking lot is TIGHT, and the signage is unclear enough that I genuinely thought I was supposed to be across the street. Fix the sign. Once inside, though, gorgeous decor, and the host was attentive right away. Credit where it's due. But the front of house needs rethinking. There's no waiting area. Sacrifice one or two seating spots and give guests somewhere to actually stand or sit. And build some kind of divider between the entrance and the dining room, because right now I'm making direct eye contact with someone mid-bite as I walk in. This is NOT a diner, and you certainly aren't charging diner prices. THE MUSIC. My number one critique. It is UNBELIEVABLY loud, and it does not match the room. It gives Texas Roadhouse. It gives Cracker Barrel. Meanwhile everything else in here screams CLASSY and your clientele showed up dressed. Nobody wants music blasting at them while they eat. We are NOT on a dance floor. At minimum, turn it DOWN and distribute it evenly throughout the restaurant instead of concentrating it in one spot right next to tables. CONTEXT, to be fair: I understand I came during their first week or so of being fully open. They soft-launched in December, so some of this is growing pains. SMALL THINGS THAT CHEAPEN THE ROOM: Hide the kid stools and anything else that reads immature. The vibe here is dark adult night out, drinks with the girls. It is NOT LongHorn with my three-year-old, so stop decorating like it might be. THE MENU, another big turn-off. You worked SO hard on the decor. Put that same energy into presentation. These menus are LITERAL binders with paper in them. It reads like a middle school project. And why is everything aggregated? Cocktails deserve their own dedicated drink menu. Then there's the QR code situation. DELETE the whole thing. Our server couldn't get it to work, ended up printing the bill by hand (an extra 5+ minutes), and then handed us a bill that required downloading the Toast app to pay. Unnecessarily convoluted. Just do it the OLD FASHIONED way. I have no idea what the thinking was here. SERVICE: Our waiter was very nice. But please train your staff to make recommendations. "Hey, have you been here before?" "No, it's your first week." "Then I'd suggest X." That's it. That's the WHOLE script. Also, he had to ask us to repeat our entire order because the music was so loud. (See above.) FOOD: Lamb shank, 8/10. Should be a staple on the menu and promoted with a photo. This thing was OUTSTANDING, melt-in-your-mouth. The whipped mash was so good I'm almost afraid to know what's in it. Great job. Branzino, 5/10. Beautiful cook on the fish, and the sauce and flavors were great, though the portion was small for a branzino. The potatoes, however, were UNDERCOOKED and hard. Cocktails: Not bad at all. Nothing to complain about, keep it up. OVERALL: Wouldn't come back as it stands. OVERPRICED for what's being delivered in its current state. The bones are here: the decor, the lamb, the staff's attitude. Fix the noise, the menus, and the payment circus, and this could be a completely different review. read more

We like to go out to dinner quite often and try new environs with friends. My wife spotted Siena online and made reservations for four. There are limited parking spaces and no on-street parking is allowed. However, the venue's ambiance was pleasant. The furnishings reminded one of a diner setting with Formica tables, plastic-covered tufted wall-mounted sofas in emerald-green and orange tub-style chairs. The walls were black with signature-style signage of the restaurant's name appearing in white illuminated letters. Upon being seated, we were asked if we wanted water and placed our drink orders. Two of us had wine and the other two cocktails. My white wine came out warm. Upon asking for another glass, I was told that the bottles had recently been added to the cooler and offered ice cubes to chill down my glass. This is highly unorthodox. My wife's cocktail was fine; however, Jeff said that his tasted like a "mocktail" as it appeared that the alcohol was omitted. Our waiter, Marquis, told him that the drink would be removed from his bill and offered him another drink. Jeff chose Woodruff Bourbon on the rocks. We ordered Baba-Ganoush, Hummus della Casa, and their version of Moussaka Fredda, all of which came with accompanying pita triangles. The mezzes arrived and the food was tasty. This cheered after a bad start with the drinks. It was on to the mains. All orders are taken on a wrist-mounted note pad with a stylus. Bambi ordered a house salad with grilled- salmon and her husband (a vegetarian) ordered roasted potatoes, the house rice and broccolini. Arlee ordered the salmon plate. I was going to order the lamb chops medium rare; however, the waiter stated that they will only cook the meat medium to medium-well. I declined and ordered the lamb shank. The dishes did not arrive together with Jeff and Arlee's coming out first; then mine and finally Bambi's. Mine was cool-warm at best and the veggies were blanched and raw; not cooked al dente. The others had started eating and the waiter was not to be found to take the dish back to be heated. So, I joined them. The waiter returned to ask if we desired dessert and we stated, "No." He said that he would return with our bill. Since we had shared mezzes, we told him to just split the bill in half. He returned with his wrist pad and asked us if I wanted to add a tip and if so, how much. All I saw was a total amount for me and added my tip accordingly. Common practice at restaurants is the application of a tip (20-25%) for parties of six or more. We only were a party of four people. As a standard practice, I always ask for a printed receipt. We waited patiently. However, the receipt was never tendered. I had to go and ask the receptionist to find the waiter. He stated that he had forgotten and would provide us with a receipt shortly. When it came, I noticed the "double charge" on the tip and asked the receptionist to find the manager who was on duty. Ray, the General Manager, was located and she stated that once signed and submitted that the tip could not be removed. She also stated that Jeff's first drink was half drunk and she would have to charge for it. In addition, she stated that this restaurant's policy was that if the bill was more than $250, a 20% tip is automatically added. This policy is nowhere in print; nor was it announced by the waiter when he asked me if I wished to add a tip to his wrist-mounted notepad (showing just the total charge at that point). In addition, while tips are added to parties of six or more as a general practice, pre-billing of a tip on bills of $250 or more is not. In fact, this is the first time that we encountered such a policy. Each of our bills with tax and "double tip" was calculated to be $218. The actual bill for food and drinks came to just over $150 per couple. The Manager did take the drink off Jeff's bill but would not adjust the tip on either bill. We were thoroughly miffed and left stating to the manager that we would take up this issue with our credit card company. The total tip came to approximately $50 on my bill (almost 33%). The whole bill should have been reversed and recalculated from scratch accordingly. This possibility was never offered to us. Under these circumstances, we will never return to this restaurant and do not recommend it. read more

The place is loud. Not sure why they play the music so loud that you can barely hear the people next to you. Felt like we were yelling at each other. The waitress had to be promoted for water refills. She would come by, see empty glasses, and walk away. Soda refills, you know, $4 a pop, so I understand why she would not ask for that. Ceaser salad was over-dressed; the amount of dressing made the lettuce salty. Also, the pita croutons tasted stale, with no real crunch. Would have rather had a slice of the warm pita. The steak I added to the salad was okay. Nothing special The salmon limone dish was again okay. Nothing that stands out. Lamb chops were cooked to the correct temperature We had two of RIGATONI ALLA VODKA, and one of them was undercooked. We also had several orders of the BUCATINI AL PEPE NERO, and they were okay, very heavily sauced. And the chicken and shrimp were overcooked. The chicken was dry, and the shrimp were rubbery. We had apps. We did the calamari and the cauliflower. Both were super crispy. But some of the calamari was overcooked. And paired with the sauce, just felt heavy and too rich. For the price of the drinks and food I should have gone to Rumis. That feels worth the price and drive. read more

I came here for their soft opening and it was packed! They have valet parking and also parking across the street in BOA parking lot. You will need to scan and pay in the lot across the street. It is a very chic vibe soon as you walk in. The bar is a nice size with various liquor. They hired a DJ and had dancers for the soft opening so it was vibing! They served us with prosecco and they had samplings of what will be on their menu. My favorite was the lollipop chicken with a yogurt sauce. Their Mac and cheese with brisket was also really good. The theme is Mediterranean with Italian influence. I can't wait for their grand opening (Tue 12/23). read more

Loved my experience at Siena. The atmosphere is beautiful, the staff was attentive and accommodating, and as someone who eats gluten-free, I really appreciated having plenty of options without feeling restricted. The Lucky Star and Matcha Martini did not disappoint, and the service was just as impressive as the food and drinks. Great food, great cocktails, and an overall top-tier experience. I'll definitely be back. read more

My wife was so excited to try this new place but unfortunately we were disappointed. First impression, the decor is beautiful. We were impressed how they transformed that space - truly impressive. Ana, our server, was wonderful. She really did a nice job. Unfortunately none of the rest of the staff seemed to want to be there. Major vibe kill. My Moscow Mule and my wife's mocktail were both excellent. We noticed the beautiful glassware, which makes a difference. My drink stem was sticky however, which is annoying. Details matter. We ordered three tapas, the whipped feta, lollipop chicken and meatballs. Everything came out looking beautiful but we were disappointed that nothing seemed fresh. The meatballs were not hot enough and the tomato sauce was too thick and not fresh. The lollipop chicken seemed like reheated from two days ago. The sauce was flavorless. And even the whipped feta tasted like it had been plated at least a day earlier. And the grilled bread looked beautiful but was neither warm nor fresh. At this price point, the food needs to improve. Finally, and in my opinion the most crucial, it to work on the vibe. Other than Ana, none of the employees were engaging or inviting. Most annoying was having 2-3 servers constantly leaning against the end of the bar on their cell phones. This alone is the primary reason we likely won't be back. read more

So, my boyfriend found this place and we wanted to check it out. Fairly new restaurant in downtown Alpharetta. It's a really cute place with a nice atmosphere. I'd say you can dress up but only if you want. It has an upscale diner feel to it. We walked in and were seated quickly by the hostess. We sat there for quite a while, unusually long time. The hostess even came by but only to grab the other plates since we were at a four top and there were two of us. She made no comment that we didn't even have water after sitting there for so long. I was actually thinking about walking out when a server comes over and said that she was just told she had to help the other server and she was so apologetic because we had been waiting there for a really long time. though she was very nice, it was offputting to start our meal this way. So I ordered a cocktail and we got a couple appetizers, chicken, lollipops, and truffle Parmesan fries. I really did like both the appetizers. The fries were probably the best. Then it came time to order dinner. He chose a Moroccan chicken and I chose a bowl and added salmon. They did overcook my salmon. The bowl was OK but a little bland overall. As far as his meal, it just looked like a hot mess. It was described in the menu that it was served in harissa sauce, and I've had harissa before. This tasted like it came from a jar, poor quality tomato sauce, no spice, certainly not harissa at all. also, it was chicken thighs, and very little meat. It was definitely not good. I don't know if there was a manager there or not, but no one came by to check on us other than the server. Although she did try to take care of us, we both left with the consensus of not wanting to go back. read more

they misrepresent the service, the quality of the drinks and the food. nothing worked for me and friends twice. gave them a second chance. they also provide for double tipping without letting you know. never again!!!!!! read more

Beautiful interior, great service and excellent food! The bar area is always our go to, though the entire restaurant was well appointed and gave off a chic "in town" vibe. We ordered the chicken lollipop appetizer (delicious) and settled on the lamb entree for our main dish, everything was perfectly cooked (temperature wise) and flavored well. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, but I can't think of too many places in the immediate area without this particular issue. A welcome alternative to Alpharetta's growing restaurant scene. Looking forward to our next visit! read more

I was super excited for this place, having seen it featured on a local news segment. However, we were terribly let down. Our server was very nice, however the food was way overpriced for what it was and overcooked. The octopus was over $20 and only 4 small nickel sized pieces came out with a few slices of potatoes and a bit overcooked on the octopus. The other 3 plates we ordered were also very underwhelming... We ordered the cheese dish - if you ask for extra bread, you get charged extra. If you ask for a soft drink refill, you get charged another $4 for the refill. Our bill was about $100 and we left hungry and unsatisfied. Really sad, was hoping for better. read more

Guitar player is WAY TOO LOUD on Fridays! We had to tell them to turn down the speaker. We had to order apps and main at the same time because service was really slow. Everything came out at once. Food is ok. The best thing we had was the pasta. I wouldn't go again. read more

We are at the restaurant right now and having a great time. We sat at the bar and Brooke and Austin took care of us with the best margaritas. We order a couple of apps and they were outstanding. There was a sax player in the background providing a wonderful addition to our entire experience. Will definitely be coming back. read more

Food was mediocre and they can't seem to make simple adjustments. Service was god awful, polite enough, but we seemed like we were bothering them - yet a 20% service charge. Overpriced as well - I won't be back. read more

The food is top tier! Best Mediterranean food in all of Atlanta. I had a time here, the service and drinks were good too.

Was super excited to try this place after looking at the Instagram the restaurant itself is very beautiful wish they put a little music on with a vibe to fit. This place would be great.. The server we had didn't know much about the menu. Food seem to be very overpriced. Desserts were good and came out in a cool aesthetic way. I would definitely say they need to improve quality of food and get a very good playlist to have a cool vibe in the spot in my opinion. read more

My friend and I had dinner at this restaurant, and we both got food poisoning. I experienced nausea, stomach cramps, and abdominal pain, and my friend had the same symptoms as well read more

Even though the vibe here was wonderful, the experience here was horrible. I was so excited to come to this new place, as I love Mediterranean food and have never been to this place too. I ordered the baked salmon and I took about 4-6 bites before noticing something was off. It was rotten- it smelled and tasted like it had been sitting out and had gone bad. While the server and chef were taking into account what I explained about the salmon once they came over, it made me lose my appetite and I went home. I was also asked if I wanted some fresh fish after I gave my plate back- which implies the previous dish was not in fact fresh, which proves my point about the fish being rotten. I was extremely nauseated afterwards. Hopefully as of right now, I don't get food poisoning. If you get the salmon- beware, and ask them if it's fresh. I don't think I'll eat here again. read more

The food was amazing and had great service. The chef came by our table a couple of times so that was a nice touch! We will go back!!

Fantastic food and service. Great small plate appetizers. Salmon and lamb were excellent. Highly recommend. Will be a staple for a while.

Absolutely horrible!! Food is nothing special and incredibly overpriced!! $24 for an octopus appetizer and you could barely find the octopus!! $36 for "flaming steak"!! It was 4 ounces of sirloin steak!! Cocktails are a joke!! The lightest pour I have ever seen! And expensive!!! They automatically add a 20% service charge for a table of 4!! Really??!!I don't mind spending $400 on a GREAT dinner, but not here!! Seriously this place is horrible!! read more

Went out for New Year's Eve dinner. Appetizers were good. Unfortunately, my wife ordered the baked salmon, which was not fresh cooked and the potatoes were not cooked at all.
