Aloha. Sunday family funday dinner was great. Plenty food. We added truffles, of course and a nice bottle of wine. Along with 4 drinks to start, total bill was quite reasonable for Margotta. Definitely try this Sunday dinner. Well worth the price and your time. Started with a beautiful buratta salad, next a pasta dish and lastly amazing ribs on garlic fried rice. All so yummy. Enjoy!

My wife and I had a wonderful dining experience celebrating my birthday. We had the tasting menu and enjoyed all the dishes. The mix of French cuisine with Japanese influence matched very well. The wines on the list I thought were marked up at a reasonable level. We will make this one of our places we visit regularly.

I don’t normally write reviews. But I feel like I have to for a “fine-dine” experience as this was suppose to be. Went here for valentines dinner. Started on time at 6:30pm. The service with workers are great. However the food time is terrible. We didn’t end our meal until 9:00pm and that wasn’t by choice. The dishes took so long to come out. What’s more ridiculous is that a table that got sat next to us at 7:00 ended up finishing the same time as us. Their main course dish actually came out first before ours. The worst part is the pre fixe menu item. One of their dishes which came at the end was just a bowl of rice with a raw egg and shaved truffle. They didn’t even ask me if I wanted the shave truffle on it they just assumed and shaved the entire truffle in both of our rice bowls which was JUST RICE AND RAW EGG. I couldn’t believe this was a fine dine menu with that on it. The bill came out to $675. I still tipped 20% respectfully for the staff. I don’t ever feel like this. But this experience felt like a scam. The workers are fine. But that menu and food time is what really killed this entire experience.
