We had reservations and were seated immediately upon our arrival. Once seated my husband wanted to move to another table; they consulted with their management, and we were moved. Later I noticed, for a Thursday evening, tables were packed in the main dining room. For those who enjoy live soft piano music, patrons may sit in the bar-dining room. My favorite dish is the ten layer lasagne, Lasagne Verdi alla Bolognese . Love it! Order it at each visit. (Available only Thursdays and Fridays. Found out once and never forgot! Perfect in every detail: Incredibly tender and silky smooth. Nearly melts in your mouth, even the leftovers! My husband 's generally likes to order salmon. He was pleased with the chef 's cooking; moist as most fish should be prepared. The Oregon salmon was pleasantly sweet. We selected my best loved appetizer, a plate of Monterey calamari. Since l was not satisfied with the saltiness of the tomato sauce at our last visit, my hesitation to order it was revealed to the waiter. He willingly offered us an alternative, a creamy white sauce, as well as the original tomato sauce. The tomato sauce was much better this time. Although my preference is just slices of fresh lemon. The waiter generously treated me to several more slices than the original one slice delivered on the plate of calamari. Personally I do not enjoy salty food at restaurants, particularly at fine dining restaurants. Quality is expected. I cook and know the differences in what constitutes excellent food. We delighted ourselves to a huge slice of hazel nut cream, with a thin layer of soft cake, and covered with a wonderful dark layer of chocolate. We were in heaven! If I could, I would lick the plate! Lastly the service was outstanding! It appeared the policy changed...to be warm and friendly. Typically in the past, we eat at Biba 's for special occasions and I feel the people are trained to be stiffly polite until later after the start of the meal, they relax. Yet this time, both my husband and I found the waiter welcoming with smiles, listening to my concern of salty foods, accomodating and being sociable. My birthday dinner was a delightfully memorable evening at Biba 's restaurant.
