    Very good experience. Tried a bunch of different bites, appetizers, and drinks. All was good but not outstanding (hence 4 stars not 5). Server was attentive and friendly. Good ambiance. Reasonably priced. Would recommend and will be back.

    Great halibut dish...but a bit spicy. Wish the batter on the artichokes could be lighter. Red cabbage was good but a bit salty. Was disappointed in the Pequad cocktail, as there was no grapefruit or tarragon taste. Description notes grapefruit soda, but there was zero carbonation, totally flat and no taste. Juan & Jalen (training) provided excellent service.

    First time dining, chose the Taste of the Majestic to maximize my experience & wasn’t disappointed. The Crab Rangoon was delicately flavored, Steak Tartare balanced in its spices, Harvest Salad a wonderful combination of fruit & greens & the Grilled Rack of Lamb sorghum glaze was complemented by the roasted brussels sprouts & parsnip purée. Our servers were attentive and not intrusive, enhancing the dining experience. The seating reminded me of European dining, close but not crowded. It made for a great evening out.

    This place was very enjoyable. We had Kareem as our waiter and he was excellent. The food was so good and we tried different starters. Diego is a great host and the young ladies at the front were very nice. We can’t wait to go back!
