You do NOT need to write any addresses. Begin your letter as follows: Dear Sir or Madam,

Dear Sir,

I am writing to thank you for the wonderful experience at your restaurant yesterday evening. We were a group of 20 people and I had booked a table for yesterday evening at 9:00 pm. My friends and I celebrated my degree in violin and your staff was very polite and cared for in every detail. I choose your restaurant because I read several positive comments about the atmosphere and dishes.

When we arrived, the staff received us very warmly and showed us the space reserved for us. The food was excellent, in fact every dish had a good flavour and smell. The service was outstanding, not only for the high quality of ingredients, but also for the attention for vegetarian dishes. When I booked the table, I explained that two guests can’t eat food of animal origin. The respect of dietary needs is fundamental for me.

The staff was always careful and available to help making the dinner very relaxing and comfortable.

I want to thank you once again and I look forward to having dinner another time. I will write a good review on Internet about your restaurant and service.

Yours faithfully

Irene
