The overall environment of the restaurant is nice. The waiting time for a table is a little long since everyone wants to see what all the hype is about.
Although their menu isn't anything special, they do have a House Special BBQ sauce which I am a big fan of. I did notice that a lot of things we ordered contained too much rice and came into the realization that I was deceived by the pictures.
In spite of the basic menu, the staff appeared nice and their service was fast once you were seated. Very attentive, my glass of water was not empty the entire night.
I only recommend MABU to anyone who has the patience to wait to be seated since they do not take reservations.
