Table was slightly dirty, including chairs had food on them. I ordered the Wagyu and my wife ordered a normal steak and I’ll be honest. The regular steak was more tender than the Wagyu so I’m not sure I was actually served Wagu or if the server switched our orders. For the price paid which was close to $600. The level of service should’ve been much much better. We were barely attended to and it seemed that all service staff was annoyed basically that we were even there. We will never go back.
