| - Oh haaky, I wanted so badly for this to be as off-the - charts awesome as in the past ..... But you let me down. What started off as a strong start ended dismally. I am originally from Las Vegas and very familiar with the restaurants high level of customer service and have had incredible meals at haakasan in the past, so I was of course disappointed this ended weakly.
I made the reservation for 7.15pm through Takoda, who has made my reservations in the past . He is always a pleasure to work with and answers promptly . We were greeted by a couple very sweet and beautiful hostesses and actually decided to sit at the bar and have a more causal dinner that way. The bar was completely empty, score right ? The bartender was cool and helped us out right away . We ordered a cocktail , Budda's Palm ($22 cocktail!) which was amazing as usual then we ordered food ... Food came out quick ! The ribeye stir fry was so delicious and melted in your mouth!! We had a small bite , bacon, bean something roll , which was great at first bite ... The second bite I had was surprisingly crunchy, so much so , I couldn't actually bite through the green bean, odd right ? Well of course it was difficult as it wasn't a bean at all , it was a toothpick !!! I would have mentioned it to the bartender ; however , she was gone and the other 2 behind the bar were conversing. Our bartender pretty much disappeared after that and the other bartender was focusing on another couple... 10 minutes later he finally comes over and we order dessert, chocolate mint and espresso .. Cake comes out no espresso no bartender . The service started out strong but ended so weak and on top of that I had a toothpick baked into my very expensive small dish! Bummed out !
