Great restaurant for celebrating a special occasion
Our family of 5 enjoyed going here. The prices are high such that I don't see going here except for a special occasion, like a birthday. With that said, you get a lot for your money in terms of food and entertainment. Our chefs (Alan and Benny) were terrific and SO MUCH fun. Our kids enjoyed the balloon animals. I appreciated that they had a kids option with prices about half of the adult prices. The restaurant adds a 20% gratuity automatically, which I was fine with given that that is now the going rate for gratuity. The restaurant is also adding a 5% surcharge "due to rising food and other costs" - which I guess is fine; I suppose they could simply raise their prices by 5%, but by doing it this way they don't add gratuity to the 5% surcharge and in theory they'll do away with the surcharge once food costs normalize (although I can't imagine this will ever happen). I was put off by their "Second Amendment" plaque in the lobby - kind of strange, in my opinion, to make a political statement. But the food was excellent, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal here. The vegan in our group had white rice, vegetables, and tofu - and I liked that they used a separate grill to cook the meat.
