Review Summary

MAKAO offers a visually stunning and cozy atmosphere that many guests find perfect for special occasions or romantic outings. While opinions on the food are mixed, with some patrons praising the creative Asian fusion dishes, flavorful dumplings, and impressive cocktail menu, others feel the portions are small and the pricing is high for the quality provided. The restaurant frequently receives glowing feedback for its exceptional staff, who are consistently described as welcoming, attentive, and knowledgeable, making the overall experience stand out for many visitors.

It is a nice cozy place but sitting in the middle of the restaurant feels a bit too snug. The food missed the mark unfortunately. The General Tao chicken was not good at all, too hard & dry. The beef tartare was lacking acidity or sourness, the mushroom truffle dumplings were tasteless, salmon tataki was overcooked & they were out of oysters (which was the only reason we went there in the first place). The server did everything she could but she was swamped & the only one for the entire place. All in all, I think I would go back for the drinks & atmosphere but the food was not something I would go back for, unfortunately.

Mais quelle extraordinaire découverte! Tellement plate que l'emplacement soit un peu caché car il a le mérite d'avoir du cachet! L'ambiance un peu style lounge nous a immédiatement séduit. C'est un endroit à 45 places assises donc très kozy & calme. Le décor est vraiment beau!
Que dire de la nourriture. 15/10. On nous a servi très rapidement, tout était chaud, joli & tellement goûteux. Nos attentes ont été clairement surpassées ! Le service était courtois & patient car nous avions plusieurs questions sur le menu. L'ambiance entre les serveuses & la barman semblait le fun & relaxe.
Le seul petit bé-mol que je pourrais apportez c'est que nous avons senti un peu de pression pour acheter des consommations alcoolisés. Les 3 personnes sur place sont venus nous le demander & plusieurs blagues sur le fait que nous n'en prenions pas. Nous nous sommes un peu prêter au jeu mais considérant notre facture de 130$ sans boisson, nous trouvions cela un peu de trop.
Sinon, je vous recommande FORTEMENT cet endroit, nous y retournerons assurément!!!
