So I hadn't been to Makai in almost a year when I went there last week and it was awesome! Used to go to this place alot back in the day but hadn't been in a really long time. Some girlfriends suggested we go for happy hour so on we went. Ordered a round on martinis and they were all great...I loved this cucumber saketini, it was super refreshing and went very well with the sushi we ordered. Which brings me to the food...YUM! We ordered the Hamachi Fusion that had this wonderful truffle, yuzu sauce also had the tuna on crispy rice and the steak asparagus skewers...yum! Bartender (super funny guy) mentioned that they recently hired the chef from Koi. I always liked Makai for the drinks but now will be back for the food! The vibe has also changed a bit too and I mean for the better. This place is definatly going back on the rotation list for where my friends and I frequent!!!\r
Pros: Fun bartenders, great vibe, awesome food
Cons: parking-- just valet or park in the lot on Colorado
