Wait was too long despite having reservations. Which wee were told were not really reservations more like managing how many people. We unfortunately watched as a large group « cut the line » with a payola. Very wrong on an evening when so few Resto were open and people had legitimate reservations. At least the food was good when the chef finally arrived at our table which was well over an hour after we sat.

I enjoyed my Christmas dinner at Makoto. I was running a little late but when I arrived they were willing to sit me immediately. I had a reservation but wanted to sit at the bar. Antonio is amazing with customer service. When he wasn’t around the other bartender Michelle was checking in on me. Even when I appeared to need help, a Manager (Cindy) stopped and ask me did I need anything make my experience better. Happy Holidays!! I will be back to see them. Food: Crab baked Handroll - 10 out of 10! I had two. Chicken gyozas or potstickers (not sure) 9 out of 10 (I thought they would be fried) Rock Shrimp - 9 out of 10 (a dipping sauce will make them perfect) Chicken Ramen - 7 out of 10 (it’s good but somethings missing in the flavor) I’m just working my way through the menu but I will definitely be back. Again and Again!

Great food, service, and atmosphere. However, be prepared to sit 30 min after your reservation time, and pay extra for fancy car valet.
