I'm sure you can order from both sides, but again, why mention it in the first place? It's 2008. We may be in 2008, but the Mai-Kai is happily fixed in an earlier time.... They have valet service that is free (well, I tip them the same as they 'charge' so it isn't really free, but it is still fun!) They still have a Maitre D that greets you when you walk in. And he is so much more than the simple greeter you get at most places today. They still have a Bar Captain that will escort you to a seat in the bar. They still have Table Captains that will take your order. And you have a Waiter and a Cocktail Waiter. This is something you don't see too often these days.... And there is so much more to the place. All of it along the lines of a fabulous restaurant and bar (Best Steaks in South Florida!) that makes you feel like you have stepped back into an earlier time. So if we are going to step back in time, why not a Ladies Night presented in a wonderfully (if clumsily advertised) retro way.
