    Not as good as it used to be. Overcooked fish. Service only fair - no one to refill water glasses. We asked for a quiet table and were seated in the noisiest area so we changed twice. Not worth 100$ for lunch and we had no wine.

    Everything about our experience, there was spectacular from the very moment we walked in. They were very attentive. We had a nice table. Food was served kindly, and it was absolutely delicious. The steak was perfectly done, and our staff was nicely attentive.

    It was a shame that the food and the service (except the hostess who went above and beyond) did not live up to the stunning space…we had such high expectations for an anniversary dinner

    The food and ambience were beautiful. However, the service was sub-standard. T started out well, but then our initial waiter disappeared and our tables had to ask for service thereafter. Very disappointing.

    Great vibe and food. It is an experience. I travel solo and pay attention to details and my surroundings. I was very pleased with the service and how everyone conducted themselves with PRIDE.
