The food tasted great. The waiter was attentive. The kitchen was clearly very far behind. We had a 545 reservation. We arrived about 10 min late because parking was impossible to find, but that didn’t matter because they didn’t have a table for us until about 620 anyway. We waited far too long for our food to come out. This meant that our table (and others) took longer to leave so there were tons of people awkwardly crowded around the bar waiting for their own reservations to begin. For the price point I would expect the food to come out at a better pace. I’d hate to eat there when they have tables open outside because they couldn’t even handle the tables inside.

I have dined at MC multiple times with overall very good experiences of food and service. Tonight we were a party of 2 in the front room. It was quite noisy. The service was good until dessert. We ordered coffee and 2 desserts. The coffee came pretty quickly, then 1 dessert came about 20 minutes later and was set between us. We told the server we ordered 2 desserts. The second one came about 10 minutes later. We finished our desserts and no check arrived. I had to ask another server for the check. We were there for 3 hours. This is not a typical experience here so I sincerely hope it is an isolated incident.

Food and Service was amazing as always, ambiance was a bit loud. The small dining room on the front right of the restaurant can be intimate but tends to get loud as it is small and there is nothing to absorb sound if a larger group is seated there. There was a group celebrating a birthday that were clearly having a great time which made for great energy but was a but tough conversing with my dinner companion over the din.

Only one issue...so NOISY can barely hear the server describe the specials...much less carry on a conversation. Food is excellent though.

Great food and service. The restaurant itself was crowded, but that may be due to the year of the snake celebration at the downtown Cary Park. The tables seem to be cramped together, but it was not too onerous as we could converse easily. A worthwhile experience and I will go back.
