I've never done it and might try this time.
What is good?
I am thinking Canoe.

"Finally got my reservation, after hammering the site all night. Man, the waiter was so rude! I asked for a refill on my water and he just gave me this look! I paid good money for this! Why can't they handle the 1,500 people lined up for their 7pm reservations! Sheesh! I'm never coming here again!" </RFDer>

Mehhhhh.
Would rather pay full price on the standard menu.
Before you say out of touch baller, winterlicious food is not necessarily prepared to the same standard, and is made in much higher bulk quantities than the kitchen would ever normally prepare. So going to a nice place and ordering off the winterlicious menu would not be representative of what the restaurant quality is really like.

I've done it a number of times and each time I've come away disappointed.
The only place that comes to mind that did it proper was Autogrille. Sadly, that establishment is gone T_T

For the money, I'd rather get Omikase @ Zen XD

They do alot of shanks and cheaper cuts ... It does provide a cheaper entry point into feeling out the atmosphere, establishment, etc.

I've had decent rendezvous's during Winter/Summerlicious, it's an excuse to head out somewhere with friends/chicks, and you can usually cap the price point I usually stay away from the baller places just because of the intense lineups, and how they really cheap out on the menu.

lol if you want to do Canoe, you're already way too late. their reservation line is usually flooded the first day reservation is opened.

i've done it many times. it's alright. nothing really special. the food is slightly different from their usual offerings. it's a good way to check out a nice space.

and you never just pay what the package price is, after a couple drinks and shit, you're spending close to $60-75 per person, and you should be able to get a decent meal anywhere.
