First and foremost, our server, June, was amazing. She was attentive without being intrusive. The food is good but apparently the restaurant was not staffed well for the amount of business they had. The wait for items to be delivered to the table was quite a bit. It was obvious that the staff on duty was doing the best they could, so they cannot be blamed for the wait. With the wait for items to be delivered to the table, the 90 minute time limit becomes a major issue. Would I go back or recommend to friends, hmmmm, not sure.

At $50 per person, 90 min max, and warning that any items not consumed will be charged an additional fee, it’s on the expensive side. While up to 45 items can be ordered, the two us barely finished 10 items. For $100, we could have an upscale meal in a better ambiance. The restaurant looks worn and in need of updating. The service was good and the quality of the food on the better side. While not worth the value, the food was good.

This is the 3rd time where we’ve had a crappy experience. The last two they didn’t have enough plates or even napkins. Served hardly came, today a lot of things we asked for they were out of. Even the spicy cabbage salad out. Service and overall this location has declined bad. I don’t think I’ll be back.
