Your table will be reserved for 1 hour and 30 minutes for parties of up to 2; 2 hours for parties of up to 4; 2 hours and 30 minutes for parties of up to 6; 3 hours for parties of 7+

Food and ambience were excellent. Beautiful setting. But we were seated almost one hour later than our booking which was disappointing.

Incredibly expensive with absolutely no service. This place is a hollow shell of what it advertises to be. Go to Buddakan or Tao you’ll have a better experience. We couldn’t get water refills. We purchased a bottle of wine and served ourselves the entire bottle. I had to physically get up and find the waiter or ask someone else to find them multiple times. At one point we were trapped in the restaurant just trying to leave. Unbelievably huge let down of an experience. Added an auto gratuity on for a table of 5 to completely ruin the night. Go at your own risk.

Service was incredibly poor, food was good but it was not worth it after not being welcomed by the rudest host crew I've ever seen
