   Macho was a fantastic chef and was very entertaining as well. The food was amazing and making this memory with my kids was so special. I can’t recall our servers name but she was attentive and also provided great service. I don’t dine out much at all so I am very thankful when I can enjoy a delicious meal in a great environment that doubles as a fun experience.

   Bar seating is exceptional if you don’t want to sit through performance. Recommend- if you like the food - but want something quiet and little more low key.

   My reservations were for 730..my party wasn’t seated until about 35/45 minutes later where we waited 30 more minutes for our drinks to arrive it was 930 and the chef hadn’t even started cooking our food. We eventually ended up leaving without any food..literally ruined my birthday dinner.

   It was an experience. My salmon was over cooked and they acknowledged that. They didn’t honor the birthday certificate but it was ok. Drinks were amazing.

   Terrible experience. We had a chef with zero experience, no show, serving the food on the plates until he burned one of the diners. Besides, he took too long to cook compared to the rest (more than 3 hours) for the table of 7. Terrible, not recommended at all.

   3 people never got white rice at our table. Let the manager know but he acted like he didn’t have time to attend to us.
