    The food was just ok! It’s a great hangout spot for young people. The energy and vibe was good, but it was very loud!

    The drinks were awful, especially for charging $21 dollars per cocktail. They were by far the worst drinks I have had in a very long time. I had to send one back after being disappointed with my first one and asking my waiter for a suggestion for my next drink which was even worse. I asked for a dirty martini instead of it was pure olive juice. I couldn't even drink it. Also, we were a party of 3 and gratuity was automatically charged to our bill. Thankfully we looked since we just split the bill and was never told by our waiter it was included. The food was the only saving quality but in the end it is your typical overpriced, Instagram picture op, Time Square Restaurant.

    Sei Less was amazing! Good was amazing. However the Asian hostess at the front was extremely rude to not only me but my husband as well. She made you feel uncomfortable to even ask a question. But otherwise the food was great, drinks were great & it was a great vibe.

    The quality of the food compared to the price is awful. They added $37 in fees and auto gravity to my $60 meal, in total $97. I ordered two house Margaritas and lobster fried rice. The rice tastes better at a takeout spot. A scam! Always read the reviews. The environment of the clientele wasn't the best. I don't mind spending but at least have quality food. I sat at a bar with minimal service.
