| - I got a Groupon deal and it was about $10 cheaper if we didn't get one. The total cost, with one ice tea was $94 (with the Groupon already) Was it worth it? Yes!
It's worth the experience. Everything inside was pitch black. I've never been in a room that's completely blacked out. I felt like my hearing was heightened and more sensitive to everything else. Eating was a lot harder and I now have a better appreciation on seeing my plate.
We were walked in to our seats. Our server was pleasant, checked in on us maybe once or twice. The entire time, my friend and I were just laughing and cracking jokes, which made it fun for us. I feel without the distraction of the phone (you have to turn it off) , the meal was more pleasant.
Upon breezing through the bad reviews, I felt sorry for those who got a bad plate. We loved ours. It was prepared so well. I got the shrimp with risotto, with veggies. The risotto had a consistency of rice... Like eating a bowl of good rice... not sure if risottos are supposed to be like that (my first time). The shrimp was seasoned well... One the best I've ever had. The chocolate dessert that I got was also pretty good. It was supposed to have ice cream, but they didn't have any. We like that the portions were generous, we were stuffed by the end of the night.
My friend got "surprise" appetizer and dessert. It was fun trying to figure out what it was. I wish they told us at the end of the night.
Would we do it again? No. Towards the end of the night, I was getting tired of putting an empty fork in my mouth. It's the novelty that's fun. But since I got that out of my system, I can now move on to other things.
I highly suggest for every foodie to at least try. It is pricey, but it's pretty much like going to a higher end steak house. It's worth the food and the concept that you pay for.
