   The hostess informed us that “people were late for their shift” so bar service may be slow. We decided just to keep it simple and get a cognac and whiskey neat. We were advised they didn’t have any cognac. I settled for bourbon but it came out in a dirty glass. The soy sauce bowls were also dirty. The manager apologized for the service.

   The ambiance was pleasant, and the server was friendly, but the food fell short of expectations. The spicy shrimp tempura leaned more toward citrusy than spicy, and the portion was small given the price. For entrees, we tried the surf and turf and the stir fry with fried rice. Unfortunately, the steak lacked seasoning, and all the dishes arrived lukewarm rather than hot. Overall, the quality and flavor of the food didn’t justify the cost, leaving us disappointed.

   We ordered the prime rib, rib eye , baby back ribs and lemon garlic chicken. The prime rib came back extremely well done and all I needed was laces to make a proper boot out of it. The medium rare rib eye was medium well done and both steaks were lukewarm as were the ribs and chicken. The waiter had no clue about the menu and was unable to answer any questions about food selections but we were “entertained” in the meantime by watching employees “twerking” in the restaurant. When we were leaving there was a very strong odor of burnt marijuana by the area where security was located. The food was over priced and definitely not a pleasant dining experience for our party of four. I won’t be going back to that location ever. There also isn’t any onsite or off street parking for that location. They recommend that you utilize valet parking from a nearby hotel .

   I will never return, it’s a huge turn off when you walk into a restaurant and you see a security guard seating in a chair with a pistol socializing with two individuals one with what looked like a comb hanging from his head. The entrance smelled like weed. Definitely do not recommend for an upscale restaurant.

   Food was subpar & totally overpriced. An entree of shrimp tacos had more cabbage than shrimp. Food quality was mediocre, dishes were dirty, bathrooms were dirty, staff was inattentive. And again, way overpriced. Won’t be returning.

   The food was just okay. The service was unmatched - very attentive. The happy hour menu has a variety but again the food was just okay. I’d return but will definitely manage my expectations.

   Roni is amazing! Ask for her if she is working and she’ll take great care of you.

   Terrible. Not helped when we arrive. Once seated, a server never comes, when we finish no one comes to close us out. Very poor service.
