   Read morePlease properly train your waiters. Food was fine but our waiter was too raw to be a formal waiter. If possible I could give the service we received zero star. Wonât come back and wouldnât recommend anyone that values dining experience with good service.
We are a group of six and one of us has diary allergy and asked him which of the dishes have diary. He wasnât sure and said âI thinkâŠ. â Itâs ok that you donât know but you should check with the chef instead of making the assumptions here with someone has fatal allergy right? My friend kindly asked him to check with the chef and make sure and explicitly told him she has diary allergy. He went back and pointed out two of the entrees that have diary. My friend then ordered a salad for sharing that has Vegan mark on it. The salad came out with lots of feta cheese on top. He explained that we had to ask for vegan options or itâll not be vegan style. This is right after she told him she has diary allergy and checked on the diary free entree options. We had to ASK him if he could remove the cheese on top. Yes he didnât apologize or took the initiative to change it for us.
Two of us ordered wine and cocktail. Our waiter kept coming back asking if we would like to have more wine or cocktails like 5 times.
When we checked out, he gave us the bill and said âPlease make sure everything is correctâ. We checked and found they wrongly put the wine we didnât order on the bill. We told him and he brought the new bill and said âPlease check yourself and make sureâ. I asked him âIs it our responsibility to make sure this is right or is it yours?â HE DID NOT ANSWER. Iâm sure he heard the question he just didnât feel like responding. Due to the group size we had to put 20% for the tip, the service we received was not...
   Read moreI had to visit MK a second time, before writing this post, as I wasnât sure something can be just as good the second time (you know how some restaurants can be that wayâŠ..huge disappointment). After an orally orgasmic experience the first time at MK, Iâm so hysterically pleased that the second time proved oral orgasms can occur im multiples and be better than the last. I was lucky enough to make eye contact and share a very brief exchange of words (or what I thought was words) with the brilliant and legendary founder of and genius to everything that is Mawaâs kitchen. Our second encounter, on my first visit, occurred when she graciously and humbly approached my table and, with the most beautiful, warm, motherly, and happiness-filled smile asked, âhow is everything?â I smiled but my mouth would not open. I was in the presence of legend and an icon, and I could not speak, only smile and nod, because I was enjoying one of the most incredible meals you can have in Aspen. TRULY!!!!! My only pushback (of course because I follow an editorial code of ethics as an unprofessional critic). The location. If this was in the center of Aspen, it would take years just to her a reservation. I will now digress back into finishing the most-welled deserved review. EVERYTHING ON THIS MENU IS THUS FAR DELICIOUS; so much so, that I have no doubt that every visit and new tasting will be just as good if not better then the rest.
I had to wash my hands (my tongue helped out), so that I can comfortably write this no-review-can-ever-be-good-enough review. If food is your only source of happiness, beware. If you want complete happiness in life, itâs not complete without several dozen trips to Mawaâs Kitchen.
Thank you,...
