We came back here last weekend to give HAO another try and I am glad that we did. The crowd was…read morenot big for a Saturday night, but it wasn't empty either. The food and service were back to the standard that I had hoped to find the last time we ate here. Our waiter Giovanni was excellent--the service was attentive and he made suggestions as we ordered. We enjoyed all the dishes we tried and we didn't have to wait long for them to be served. They serve a type of Asian-Brazilian fusion. The place is very attractively decorated; they have valet parking, but I had no trouble finding a parking spot on my own. They told me that after 11 PM, that they push the tables back and it becomes a club (but I didn't stick around for that). After our latest experience, I won't wait so long to dine here again.

I ate here twice with my wife; the first time the food was an absolute disaster--her lamb was overcooked and my duck was raw. I offered to switch plates with her and the first thing I tried was the purée, which was ice-cold. I put my fork in another part, and out came a hair. I was done eating at that point. The service that day was very good, and the manager suggested that it was a one-off, and asked if I would come back another time and try them again. I did, to my regret. The second time, the service was absolutely appalling. I sat 35 minutes waiting for a server in between courses. I had to ask for the check 3 times so I could leave. The food, while improved from the first time (no hairs), was disappointing. My lamb, this time, was raw in the center; my wife's fish was uncooked in the center. The plating is also rather childish. Needless to say, I won't be eating here a third time.
