ENGLISH WILL FOLLOW
Manger dans ce restaurant a été une expérience assez mauvaise pour moi. Sans la compagnie & le décor, je lui mettrais probablement une étoile. Je le déconseille fortement.
Les plats que j'ai choisis étaient en petites portions (tataki de thon, pétoncles qui pourtant etait un plat principal).
C'était vraiment très cher pour ce que c'était.
Je suis sorti de là en ayant payé 142 $ (avant tips) & en ayant encore faim. J'ai consommé un tataki de thon (5 petits morceaux de thon), un plat de pétoncles (légumes sautés avec 7 petits pétoncles, probablement parmi les plus petits que j'ai mangés), 0,3 L de bière, un cocktail & 5 oz de vin (un vin plutôt ordinaire).
Le pourboire était inclus, environ 20 % au moment du paiement (166$). Pas moyen de le modifier.
Expérience décevante en ce qui concerne la nourriture & le prix.

English:
Eating at this restaurant was quite a disappointing experience for me. If it were not for the company & the decor, I would probably give it one star. I strongly do not recommend it.
The dishes I chose came in very small portions (tuna tataki, scallops).
It was really overpriced for what it was.
I left having paid $142(before tips) & was still hungry. I had a tuna tataki (5 small pieces of tuna), a scallop dish (sautéed vegetables with 7 very small scallops, probably among the smallest I have ever had), 0.3 L of beer, one cocktail, & 5 oz of wine (a pretty cheap wine).
The tip was included, around 20% at payment($166), with no option to modify it.
A disappointing experience overall in terms of both the food & the price.

J'y suis allée avec mon mari & nous y avons passé une excellente soirée! L'ambiance était au rendez-vous. Nous ne buvons pas d'alcool donc nous avons commandés des mocktails & ils étaient vraiment à l'écoute par rapport à nos goût, j'ai été agréablement surprise de la complexité des drinks! Super service, je recommande à tous! ☺?

Went to Mona Loa to celebrate a birthday & we had an amazing time! Food was good & drinks were even better. We went on a Saturday night & the DJ was definitely one of the best I've seen in a while. They also had a tambourine player that definitely helped bring everyone together & celebrate. We had other plans to go elsewhere & we ended up staying the whole night since we were having so much fun. The servers were great too, constantly checking up on us ensuring we have the best time possible. Great experience & beautiful restaurant, will definitely be coming back.
