Food and service were outstanding. Prices were 30% higher than warranted particularly for having to listen to rap music the whole meal.

My wife and I have eaten there on several occasions and have always given it a 5 star rating. This time Valentines (Saturday)we felt the snacks on the fixed price menu very very small given the $145 per person menu, plus there was only 2 main courses - both meat and one for an additional price. We also didn’t think the rap music was the right choice given the day and ambiance.

I’m not a stranger to this approach to dining but, leaving hungry after an $800 evening for 2 is unacceptable. The food that was served was undeniably good, but, for risk of sounding like a glutton, there just wasn’t enough of it. Service was attentive but certainly not refined to the level it should have been for the price point. Maybe my bad for trying on valentines weekend. Complete absence of value. Disappointed.

Overpriced tasting menu of 5 items with first three served at once. Each item was one bite size but well prepared. Wine prices are the highest I’ve seen in any Michelin Star restaurants including NY Did not mind the price but did not feel it was worth the cost

We ate at Maass for Valentine's Day and I have to say it was the best Valentine's menu ever. The menu they had for the evening was fantastic. Every course was delicious. In addition, the service was wonderful. Our waiter was attentive and friendly making the experience all that much better. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for a very nice evening out.

I feel that the money we spent here over $815 did not compensate for the food, service or overall experience. The restaurant had a fixed menu for Valentine’s Day. It was comprised of 6 courses. A bite size foie gras macaroon, a bit size potato pancake, 1 oyster that tastes terrible and it was warm. The yellowtail was pretty good. The main entree was short rib with two scoops of mashed potatoes or for $50 more you can get American Wagu (2 pieces). The desert was a chocolate tort, with sorbet ice cream that was very good. With two drinks each for 3 people we paid over $815 for this meal. Everyone left the restaurant hungry. Maybe we all missed something and dont understand food, but this was simply not worth the money! Would never return.
