Went tonight and first thing I noticed was the atmosphere and music. It was great. Felt a little clubby and I’m down with that. The guy at the front not super friendly…..waiter…..not super friendly…..I asked a question about one of the entrees and he said he didn’t know. I guess my biggest problem was the price. I got grilled chicken with frozen out of the bag vegetables and a side of rice. 30 dollars. DOWNTOWN LAWRENCE . Bill for two was 75.00…with tip over 85…ouch.... and the food was OK. Definitely NOT matching the price. Seems like a place to have some drinks and listen to music maybe but I wouldn’t t go back to eat….i felt like I got jousted a bit…I want my money to reflect the food I get. I did not by far.

It’s an amazing and unique experience. A fusion of Japanese food with Dominican flavor ? Reservations are a must as the place is always packed in the evening. Great job for El Ninja y el Chinito.

I didn’t like that as soon as we got seated they told there was 1.5 hr time limit for us. It was 3 of us and they charged us $400 too pricey for the kind of food that it’s served. Also, 18% tip is included and they don’t even tell you about when the bill gets to you they ask for tip again. Overpriced!!!!

Vaka is what's up mi amigos!! Swear by the food and atmosphere!! The drinks are great, just ask before ordering... Some are far, far too sweet but wicked sick presentation!! ? Highly suggest for a fun night out!! The "show" is cool if you can catch It on special nights! This was a super fun double date night and we cannot wait to return as this might be our new "spot!!"

Good food and drinks! Fun night out. Parking is hard to find. They’ve valet but this day he was inside. We paid $10 to park 2 min away. I’d suggest you have your order ready when you go , you have a time frame to eat i think an hour and 45 min. We were asked to leave. I would've spent more here . More drinks and dessert but we didn’t see the waiter much. In the reservation it said celebrating a birthday. Definitely could’ve spent more. They do pre tip already.

I've been dying to go to this place for a while. And we finally had a chance to enjoy the environment and the look. It's a very elegant looking place with a vibe that's very cool. Our waitress happened to be very lackadaisical. That wasn't on the downside. The food was good. There are no vegetarian options, so I had an order off of the side dishes. Drinks were great. The presentation was amazing, a little pricey, but they were very strong. We overall had a nice time at this. Please check it out if you can, especially the chupacabra.

I was a little hesitant about this place after reading a few reviews, but I’m glad I went to see it for myself. This place is AMAZING!!! The best place I could have picked to celebrate my birthday.The food is delicious, great drinks (a little more on the sweeter side) Someone said that service took a while, we got seated at 7pm by 7:45 we all had drinks and appetizers, service was great and fun. Very nice staff. Someone said that they brought them a dessert cake for their birthday and got charged for it even though they didn’t order, I got the dessert and didn’t get charged for it. The only thing I wish I was informed when I made the reservation is that there’s a 2 hours limit for you to stay there, which it wasn’t a problem because that was more than enough time, but still, it would’ve been nice to know ahead of time. Overall great place, would go again.

Have to wait fifteen minutes for our table reservation but at the end the waitresses services was very positive.
The restaurant looks great but the food is terrible I went with my family yesterday 3 hours later were at the hospital for food poison. I also brought my daughter best friend to eat with us she also got poisoning we met up at the hospital. The waitress has contracted more on other tables then the actual ones it's was a nasty service I don't recommend the restaurant I'm sure the food was leftover from the other day to resellers
