| - We were a table of 3 and 2 of us loved the experience, however the 3rd was just too freaked out to enjoy it and only ate the 1st course. The 2nd was packaged up and taken home as she had no desire to eat anything she couldn't see. She was older and I don't thing she truly grasped the kind of restaurant it was when we explained beforehand.
We first entered the front where we were given then menus and chose our main course. Appetizers, desserts, and munchies were surprises. The lady that greeted us came on a little pushy and rushed us through the process of choosing our main course a little more than we liked. We were then given a locker where we locked up our coats, purses and cellphones and were introduced to our server, Ashley. It was pitch black so she led us to our table Congo line style and made sure we were settled in before moving on. She was such a sweet, efficient and excellent server! Awesome! The meal was good, not great but pretty good. We also decided to eat our main course with our fingers after getting tired of the forks being empty by the time they reached our mouths so many times! And you'll be surprised at how much food lands on the table when you can't see what you're doing! We realized that after our plates were taken away. Was a very cool experience. I have to say that the restaurant does get very loud!! I guess it's automatic that when you can't see, you seem to talk louder almost to compensate! Lol!!
All in all, I loved the experience and would go again.
One thing we did notice that you don't when you're eating in the dark, is that the portions are quite small for the price you pay (pretty pricey). We realized that when we saw the meal that was packaged up and taken home. When you're eating in the dark, you're so focused on the feel and taste of it all, you really don't realize how small it is. If you have a big appetite, grab a burger on your way there first! Overall though, I'd suggest experiencing it at least once!!
