text: Lilianas is so close by my house that I pass it up way too often and never think of stopping in That changed last night and I am so happy that I did It is a locally owned and committed to securing local ingredients wherever possible Dinner started out with a calamari appetizer as well as complimentary cornbreadjalepeno biscuits Both were outstanding The calamari was delicately fried and accompanied by a spicy aioli The bread was fresh and baked in house Both different types went well with the jalapeno compound butter that it was served with For our entrees my girlfriend opted for the blacked cajun burger while I went with the jambalaya The burger was generous and perfectly blackened coming out medium rare as requested The jambalaya was packed with shrimp tasso ham lardons and chorizo Our server was attentive without being overbearing nOverall we had a great experience and made me commit that I need to visit more often My only wish is that they had a few more sandwiches etc at a lower price point for the times I want to stop in for a quick bite rather than the entire dining experience
