We were all excited about having our only all together bachelor party dinner here.  You are dealing with at least 3-4 big foodies among the group so anticipation and expectations were high given the 4.5 stars overall.\n\nService:  Pretty good.  It was a group of 11 and given large group sizes, in general are harder to deal with which I understand.  The hostesses were accommodating when our group sizes kept fluctuating from 10 to 14.  Our waiter even managed to skillfully pour one bottle of wine evenly for all 11 of us as we were limiting drinks since we were hurting from partying the night before :)  In addition, one person was a vegetarian and they made him his own meal which I really appreciated. \n\nFood:  We mostly ordered the signature menu.  There was generally a disappointed feel to the food with the following thoughts:\n- Amuse:  kanpachi krudo - disappointing ... was a bit on dry side so should've used a fattier piece or add some oils etc.  Flavors of ingredients didnt really come out.\n- wagyu beef tartare - very very good\n- 2 diver scallops with braised oxtail - good and tender but didn't see or really taste much oxtail.  Hard to ruin fresh scallops unless overcooked or unseasoned.\n- Octopus:  decent mix of flavors but not really memorable.  Not rubbery but it shouldn't be at a nice restaurant.\n- Short ribs:  very good but portions were small.\n- Iberico Pork Loin:  Flavor was only okay.  Nothing amazing.  This  was ridiculously disappointing after the waiter recommended it and 4-5 of us got this.  We each had EITHER, 2 or 3 thin (why the inconsistency) medallion slices probably 2 inches in length and one other piece that was a bit bigger with more of a crispy texture.  For a \"main\" (3rd course out of 4), the diver scallops were bigger than this.  I am seriously NOT a portion person as I am often amazed at portion sizes in the US, but this was ridiculous and left all of us hungry.\n- Wagyu Sirloin - this was well proportioned (as the Pork ordering people felt jealous) but nothing overly interesting.  \n48 hour beef belly - curious to try since most have never heard of this but nothing mind blowing.\n- desserts:  there were 2 main ones we ordered a chocolate mousse (good) and another one I forgot the name of which basically was expensive popcorn.\n- Vegetarian meal:  I dont have details but this was well enjoyed and felt like a personal touch since there were no vegetarian dishes on the menu really.\n\nAgain, overall service was good.  But more than half of us leaving hungry (some people wanted to  get a hot dog after) and that's a tough result considering the food was okay at best.  When one of us asked about food portions and we are still hungry, the waiter shrugged his shoulders in a 'there's nothing I can do about it' way.  I cannot recommend a return  to this place. Pretty big disappointment overall.
