    The experience is so worth it- book the reservation! The wine, cocktails, appetizers, dishes, fun hats and music! You will not be disappointed! Service was a tad slow at first- seemed she may have been double or triple seated pretty close together but made up for it with her warmth and her knowledge of the menu! The expo runners and bussers were so kind and welcoming- the “salúd” with the delivery of cocktails was such a nice touch! The decorations are truly over the top in the most mesmerizing way! I felt like Carrie Bradshaw getting Chinese food with Miranda on Valentine’s Day! Surrounded by beautiful decorations! Will definitely return to catch more decorations for a different holiday! Brava, Mama Gale and team! Wow!

    We were seated by the front door which was very cold but the hostess was kind and moved us to an interior table. Food was good. We received our food well before our first cocktails. The server seemed to forget them and another server noticed them brought our drinks. I think the decorations were festive and perfect! The chairs are tiny like a hotel banquet. We had one other hiccup with my drink but the same server resolved it. We enjoyed our experience over all. We will look out for the next event experience because I appreciate how they design the experience and you don’t have to think about anything, just enjoy.
