Priority Seating / Reservations Comments: |
In planning for this trip, it was
recommended to us by many people that we make Priority Seating
for as many meals as possible. It wasn't very crowded at Jiko
when we were there, but it was good to know we wouldn't have
to wait. |
Time of Wait: |
None. |
Food Review: |
The food was excellent, the best
meal we had our entire trip. The Duck Firecracker and the
Hummus Pitas were great. I had the beef tenderloin and it was
wonderful. The Cardamom-Flavored Chocolate Candies were
probably one of the best desserts I've ever had. |
Service Review: |
The service was good, the wait
staff knew a lot about the items on the menu and answered all
of our questions. |
Atmosphere Review: |
We sat in kind of a side room, that
was like a private room so unfortunately we didn't get to
experience most of the atmosphere of the restaurant. |
Other Comments: |
It is expensive, but very good
food. We also got a bottle of wine which increased the total
price of our meal. The food was all excellent though,
definitely worth the
money. |
