Blackout Dining In The Dark

À little bit out of the way, but well worth the "effort". Once you had signed your life away with the digital liability waiver, you were given some guideline rules before following your "server / guide" into the darkness. Oh and it is pitch black dark. 7 course dinner and a few drinks later and you are finally shown what you have just eaten. Would I do it again, probably not, but should everyone do it once - YES.

Fun and unique experience - not so good food. I would recommed everyone give this a try at least once. You don't realize just how jolting the dark can be until you step into the dining room. It's a tad overwhelming at first and I could definitely see someone having a panic attack if they aren't prepared to actually be in total darkness. As for the food, it's like they wanted to pack as many flavors and soft textures into the meal as possible. Maybe the soft part is to avoid choking hazards? Regardless, if you are a picky eater, you're probably not going to enjoy this. While nothing was just plain bad, the meal just didn't realy hit the spot and I so wish they would revamp the menu to include more simple high quality foods. Like seriously - I want to taste an aged steak in the dark - just cut it up for me first LMAO While you will definitely have a lot to chat about as your table tries to decipher what you all just put in your mouths - I found the experience oddly isolating. The room is very loud and without seeing your friends in front of you, I got a little lost in my own head. All in all, I say - DO IT! Just have reasonable expectations on the food and probably not a great idea for a first or second (or third) date - just a heads up...

Such a unique fun mysterious sensory experience, I do recommend closing your eyes as the tend to get tired searching for something to see, the wait staff is funny, patient and helpful and you definitely try new foods and flavors. We love the sense of mystery, they change their menu every 6 months, we've gone twice now and definitely plan to go again, my only recommendation is to be open to new tastes and to bring a jacket.. also note it's walking distance from the Rio, if you're looking to stay closeby

What a singular and wonderful experience. While it's a little unnerving to be in such complete darkness, that quickly becomes a non-issue. The waiter helps orient you to your table and out come the drinks and first course. Service is friendly, fast and helpful. The food is delicious. We highly recommend.this unique dinning experience and will be back.

This place is such a cool experience! The look of the building is a little shady when you first walk in, but the whole dining experience is amazing! Our waiter was so friendly and helpful and made us feel super safe despite eating in complete darkness! And the food was delicious. We got the mystery wine pairing to go with the courses which was extra fun. Wish there was one in my home town!
