| - Restaurant review update:
DINERS BE AWARE! So the old chef from Miga has left (per the wait staff he got married and moved on and took his menu) and pretty much all of his creations are gone. The Miga sashimi salad, Angus Galbi Rib-eye Steak, butter fish, garden steak (long gone), beef SSAM, and Miga fries ALL GONE. So basically 95% of the photos do not reflect any of the items you can obtain from the menu. I was here last month for a business dinner and you can clearly see that a new chef has put in place his menu. Items tried:
1. Asparagus appetizer- it was so over powered with a green onion flavor it was almost unbearable
2. Bo SSAM- this is nothing like the beef SSAM which was slices of beef over a decorative candle. Somehow this concoction represents a pulled pork mixture that you can wrap in lettuce leaves. The flavors are completely different and the texture reminds me of a spicy baby food that you wrap in lettuce
3. Chicken wings- I wish I had pictures of this, gigantic wings on a plate. I did not try this but the presentation was simply ridiculous
4. Ribeye steak- this is hands down a terrible iteration of the angus galbi rib-eye. Somehow whatever the onion or garlic flavors that were in the asparagus also somehow showed up in this dish as well. Numerous people at the table were trying to figure out what that flavor it was that was detracting from this dish
5. The dessert donut- I got to try one because everyone at the table ordered for carryout and the waiter had the wrong head count on how many to pack up. Again I wish I had a picture of this. It is very difficult to describe but it was a dark ball of fried dough with a black powder coating it that had a burnt taste to it. There was also some sort of jelly to dip it in as well. Makes me long for the days of the mochi ice cream or the apple pie tart a la mode
ALSO an important note as I learned from their sister restaurant (Sakanaya), even if you have kids and none of the menu items are appropriate, you cannot bring your own food in which makes this a lot less family friendly. With this above experience, I cannot recommend coming here at this time due to there family unfriendly policy and with the drastic overhaul of the menu. Even though I have recommended numerous coworkers, candidate interview dinners, and company presentations to have there meal here, I can no longer vouch for my dinner experience here.
