   We were celebrating my husband’s birthday and scheduled a reservation about a week before; let me say that the aesthetics were amazing and the restaurant beautiful BIT… when we arrived the table was not ready but we were told we could go to the bar and wait about 10 minutes, it actually took over 30 minutes and I had to walk up and remind them that we weee there waiting. When we’re at our table I asked the server to make a drink suggestion but I like sweet drinks he told me we have four sweet drinks but we are out of the ingredients for two of them. My husband’s order was incorrect and it took another 20 minutes for them to correct that.

   Disappointing experience compared to other locations for this restaurant and hellaciously overpriced. The reason to go to this chain is the entertainment (fire dancers, magicians, musicians etc.) that move among the tables. The Houston location had only entertainer and they rope them off in small zones instead of moving them among the tables—very different experience compared to the chain’s other locations. The food is basically Applebee’s quality at 5x the price. On the plus side, service is good (though not great) and the building is beautiful. Save your money and book elsewhere—there are many other terrific restaurants in the area.

   Loved the food, service, and ambiance! This was a total experience and worth the price when you consider that is about more than just the food and drinks (although those are also amazing).

   Service was good, food was ok, and the vibe was really cool. The parking is horrible. We ended up getting towed. Had to get an uber and go across town to pay $400 to get our car. I’ll never go back
