    The food is very good but very expensive. It would be worth it if you are seated in the main dining room which is why I booked the restaurant. It looks beautiful in the pictures. However, there were no tables available so they sat us in an empty room which was dark and far away from the action. We asked for another table and then they sent us to another dark empty room. I don’t understand why they didn’t close off all these empty rooms and then they wouldn’t all be empty. We felt like we were in time out and forgotten most of the night. At one point some influencers decided to use the room for a photo shoot and we were treated like we were in their way and no one working in the restaurant felt they should stop the photographer from flashing strobe lights through our dinner. At the end of the evening they gave us a $500 bill for three people and I never had a more disappointing experience for that amount of money. But, as I said, the food was good.
