    My daughter & I went to Ritual House for the first time last night. We got seated in a booth near the bar. We ordered a bread board and the edamame, both were good! I ordered the Asian inspired chicken and got the sauce on the side, as recommended by the waiter. The chicken was moist and the breading perfectly done! The sauce was on the sweeter side (almost like syrup), so I am glad it was on the side. Didn’t care for the slaw. My daughter got a grilled chicken Caesar salad, she said it was good! We will definitely be back to try some different food.

    Booked a reservation Christmas eve for my family. This was the first time at a Melting Pot. They were incredibly busy but seated close to our reservation time. The staff was very patient and informative explaining the whole dining experience. Food and drinks were tasty, it was a great evening and will be back again.

    Our family loves Benihana for big holidays, and our latest time at the Green Tree location was for Christmas Eve. Our chef, Fernando, was excellent and the food was very flavorful and perfectly cooked. Our server was very attentive too. We enjoyed our family time there and will be back soon. (The homemade yum yum sauce is always a delight.)

    Greeted warmly loved that we were seated in the main dining hall. I loved that I was able to people watch! Many guests came for a buffet and were disappointed! But the atmosphere and Indias smile were so engaging that she made up for the lack of buffet
