The setting: Went here for a friends birthday with 3 couples. I let the restaurant know on our reservation it was our friend's birthday. The wait staff recommended 2-3 dishes per person. Each couple ordered 4-5 dishes and one beverage for each person. The ambiance is dark but beautifully decorated, moody, and luxe. The noise level was moderate, it was easy to have a conversation and the music wasn't too loud. 90s/ 00s/ 10s hip hop and R&B was playing during our visit.
Now for the experience: We ordered relatively quick upon arrival. The waitress was attentive, but the service was overall very slow. Our drinks took a very long time to come out. We ordered two "fancy" drinks and the rest were simple beers/ sodas. We had to toast our birthday girl with water because we were waiting so long. The first thing to come out was a cucumber dish that was very delicious and unique. Then our other small plates arrived. All of them were Asian-fusion type dishes that were nothing to write home about. We all felt they were trying very hard but not in a productive way; Beef claiming to be wagyu was chewy and sinew-y. Lobster and crab were more like tuna salad, etc. The dessert menu was very random and did not at all reflect an Asian fusion menu. Considering the exorbitant prices as well. Then the drinks arrived. We were all happy with the drinks besides the delay.
Then things got annoying: We were almost finished eating and I tried to order a piece of cake and I was hoping the waitress would take the hint, but she sporadically brought over a very small, awkward sip of "sparkling wine" for our birthday girl. She then brought the coconut cake, which was spectacular. It was jumbled and random and not very cohesive. We were hoping the cake would be complimentary, not the awkward sip of champagne, considering we had a $600+ tab. Gratuity was included because our party was large.
In sum, worth a visit maybe once or to enjoy some bougee drinks. We won't be back for a meal again.
