    The best meal I have had this year. The meal consisted of multiple courses. There were no weaknesses in any of them. Every course was outstanding. This is difficult when there are multiple courses and one can fall through the cracks and not work out. That did not happen with my meal at Mago. The wine pairings were also appropriate. It was clear that the staff had searched the whole world for the pairings they selected. The effort paid off and I give the wine choices my very highest ratings. I rarely leave reviews, even though I have been to multiple restaurants. But this meal deserves the outstanding rating I have given it. It is hard to put into words how good this restaurant was. All I can say is see for yourself. You will not be disappointed.
