All was good except for the table lamps that were old and kept going out of battery. They needed to be changed several times but all didn’t last any more than 5 min so we gave up asking for it to be changed. The Korean server and the hispanic staff were very nice and apologized. It was a bummer because the reason why I chose this restaurant was because of the ambiance since it was an important dinner. The past 2 times I dined there it wasn’t a problem though. Otherwise food was good and they put our group in a room so it was quiet.
