Review Summary

MAKAO is a popular Chinatown destination known for its stylish decor, cozy lounge atmosphere, and consistently impressive cocktails. While the restaurant receives significant praise for its attentive and friendly service, guest experiences regarding the food are mixed; many diners find the dishes flavorful and beautifully presented, while others feel certain menu items lack depth or consistency for the price. Despite some feedback about portion sizes or specific dish preparation, the overall vibe and professional staff make it a highly recommended spot for dates, special occasions, and social gatherings.

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.

Visited this spot on a Wednesday evening. It was not too busy & I elected to go for a beet salad followed by the fried chicken tapas. The salad was good & the chicken was excellent. I wish they had a better whisky selection. I drank the Pinot & it was ok. Service was kind & timely & the music was good.

Dinner at MAKAO was a delightful experience. The ambiance was sophisticated yet relaxed, making it perfect for a special evening out. The seared tuna was exquisite, & the wine pairings recommended by the sommelier were spot-on. We had no trouble with our reservation, & the service was impeccable throughout the night.
