    Thanksgiving at 555 is insane!! AND the staff does a fantastic job getting everyone to their tables. This is the most organized front staff we have ever witnessed at a Top End Restaurant. As soon as we were seated, our Server, Ray, was at the table opening our bottle of wine. (NO CORKAGE at this wonderful Steak Restaurant!!) How often does that happen? The first thing Ray asks is how much time do we want before ordering. He asked the same question after each course. This is Beautiful!! The last thing we want at a great meal is to be rushed. No need to go on about our steak, as it was just what we ordered. Thanks for a wonderful evening. K&C

    Food and service were fantastic. The space is a little tight for some tables especially some of the two seaters, and the valet can be a little awkward if there are already cars waiting. But we loved the food, drinks, and service so we will definitely be back! Would 100% recommend to others.

    The food was incredible. The 3 way mezze option was delicious. But the star of the show was the ribeye & chicken skewers. Both were super tender and juicy. I can not wait to go back again. Kuddos to the chef and her family’s recipe.

    Azabu is our go to for date night. The service is always great and the food is amazing. Highly recommend the Peruvian scallops, shishito peppers, carpaccio yellowtail and grilled octopus. The drinks are consistent and delicious, we will continue to visit and wouldn’t mind eating here weekly.
