Last night as MC, my husband and I had the best dinner we’ve had in a restaurant in years! We had toro tuna sashimi, salmon crudo, Chilean sea bass, and fig creme brûlée. Service was great! Nice to be able to eat indoors, in the yard, or on the porch. Can’t wait to go back.

This was my second time to MC. The food was very good, same as the first time, however, the service was horrible . 15 minutes after being seated, I still had not been offered a drink. I had to go the the bar area and ask for a drink. Even worse, it took them 20 minutes to bring my spicy margarita and 30 minutes to bring my wife’s martini. Really? We sat in the front room, which is away from the main dining room. We often felt forgotten as nobody ever seemed to check on us. It was a Saturday night, so it’s hard to tell if they were understaffed, but it was not a pleasant experience. I’ll think long and hard before going back again.

Food was mediocre and prices high enough to warrant great quality. The historic house was true only real positive.

Delicious food and drinks at MC. The experience is wonderful, however the building could use some noise baffling, as it gets very loud inside. We love coming here for special nights!

Always such an experience at MC. We just love this place. The tuna trio appetizer as mind blowing. Thinking definitely west coast fish. Sea bass was wonderful and the mango sticky rice was delicious.

This was our first time and MC knocked it out of the park. Our group started with the pot stickers which were very good. The Birdnest did not disappoint and neither did the Saigon Noodles. We also got a couple pieces of sashimi which were fresh and flavorful. We can't wait to get back.

What a lovely experience! The restaurant is in an historic home with beautiful high ceilings and just a perfect ambiance. The staff was so professional and attentive. Food was absolutely delicious. Every. Single. Thing. was perfect. We got the sake salmon, hidden dragon maki, spring rolls, Chinese buns and Saigon noodle. Perfection.

My first visit here was about a week ago. Liked it so much. Booked again for Father’s Day. The restaurant itself is such a great atmosphere. Drinks were fantastic!!! Get that smoked old fashioned. You know you want too….Started with the Tuna special along with Chinese Buns. Great. Then went with the 3 sushi maki rolls to split with my daughter. Phenomenal!!! Finished with that Raspberry Lava Cake. That is the close you are looking for. Please go, tell them I sent you. Will not get you anything but made me feel important. Can’t wait to go back.
