    The service was outstanding, the food overpriced and mediocre. This is the second time I have dined there and found the food overpriced and less than good (last time verging on the inedible except for the starter) but the service and ambiance above average.

    Delicious spread for American Thanksgiving Dinner! The only thing missing might have been more pie selections for dessert.

    Pretty fine with the overall experience but little disappointing with the food quality especially the lobster spaghetti, the pasta is too soft and lobster is not fresh, so unexpected having such stale seafood in a famous seafood city…. However, the ambience compensates a lot, and the price is quite a value.

    We had a very lovely experience at Mode. It was a shame that the restaurant was not very busy. Perhaps locating the restaurant to another part of the hotel or not having it so closed in might attract more patrons.

    A pleasant experience. Service was great and the food was nice. Table was a little small but they may have been because we selected too much food…….
