We had a fantastic farewell party for my friend at Makao! The ambiance was lively yet intimate. Renata was our wonderful server, ensuring we were well taken care of. The Dragon Margarita was exceptional! The oysters with kimshi minyonette were a must-try!View more

The baby shower at Makao was nothing short of magical! Bianca, our server, made sure we felt special with each drink. The Japanese Bedsheet cocktails were a hit! The UDON noodles were adorable & just as delicious. Can't wait to return!View more

What an unforgettable birthday celebration for my colleague at Makao! The atmosphere was just right, & our server, Jay, kept us entertained with his charm. The Dragon Margarita was a crowd favorite! We all loved the rock shrimp as well. 10/10!View more

Food: best way to describe it is like airport/convention center food. Description sounds good but the execution is poor. Fried rice was awful - tasted like frozen veggies, the wrong kind of rice, bad spice/sauces, & we didn't know the chicken would be fried. The bang bang fries were pretty good flavor, chicken was a little overcooked, but edible. Beet salad was fine but nothing special. Overall we felt it was very overpriced for what we got. We were tucked into a corner & had to ask for water refills three times (leave the pitcher, give us bigger cups, or make sure to include the hidden table in the water rounds.) Service was pretty non existent. Very beautiful decor but sadly...would skip this one!View more

I was a bit disappointed by the Roasted Beet salad. It's described as Roast yellow & red beets, Cherry tomatoes, Parmesan Reggiano, Figs, Red onions, Apple cider vinaigrette. However, there were no figs in the salad! :( The Vegan wild mushroom dumplings were good (carrots, green beans, shiitake). The dipping sauce is savoury, slightly spicy & tangy. Good enough to eat with rice. :P The restaurant is a bit small but with a beautiful setting.View more

The food here was amazing however the service was extremely slow, we waited over an hour for our entrees & then again for our meals, certain people in our group never even got their entrees, when asked to bring out the cake it took over 30 min to do that & then an additional 30-45 minutes to get it served. They were not overwhelmed with customers either. There staff was friendly but never apologized for the wait & had more of it doesn't matter attitude throughout the night. They seemed to not know how their system works as just printing the bills took over 20 min. They seem very new & a bit lost at what they are doing, they definitely need to improve their service before I think of going back.View more

What a wonderful experience at Makao! I booked 5 people for my best friend's birthday & they gave us our own little comfortable booth! The noise level was so perfect! We heard the music but we were still able to have a conversation without screaming. The star of the show was our server MATT! He was so lovely! Amazing service! 11/10! He took such good care of us, he was funny & super accommodating! The espresso martinis were the absolute best ive had in the city! I loved the oysters with the touch of pomegranate. The general tao fries are to die for! We overall loved our night!View more

Place was really nice inside. Beautiful with lots of greens. The food was exceptional, drinks were tasty as well. The margaritas specifically was very good. But the location is sketchy. Lots of people under some influence on the street. I wish they had established somewhere else.View more
