Love the site and all the urban archeology. My wife and I just visited the Mai Kai on 12/9/09, figured instead of starting a new thread, I'd just post on a recent existing thread and share our experience. I've just posted on Yahoo's restaurant review page, copied and pasted below to save anyone interested the trouble of looking for it. Copy and Paste User Rating: 5 out of 5 stars by howlinowl 12/11/2009 Wife and I visitied Mai-Kai on 12/9/09. I've lived in South Florida for 25 years... 15 in North Palm Beach and the remainder in Port Saint Lucie and am regretting not going sooner!! All those years I could have visited before and wasted them on TGI Fridays and Chile's!! The building and decor are absolutly fabulous!! Started with drinks in the bar and then dinner and show. Drinks were great, Food was wonderful. The show!! Oh man! Wonderful ambiance with the outdoor garden and tiki's abound!! First restaurant in a long time that I've spent hours...HOURS in wondering around looking. We would have stayed longer, but had a hour and half drive back to PSL. Next time...we're getting a motel room and making a night of our visit!! Uncopy and Paste As you can tell, we totally dug this place. 'Bout the only thing I would have done different is bring a bit more $$ as we kinda dialed back on the food to strech the budget for the souvener shop!! Peking Duck was calling to me, but I had to obey the Budget. I had the Singapore Chili shrimp and wife had Sweet and sour chicken with Hawaiann rice on the side. Also, I was really looking forward to a "Mystery drink" but since it served 4, and our party was my wife and I (and she's a non-alcohol drinker) and I still had to drive back to Port Saint Lucie....next time it's motel and cab time and I'll have that Mystery drink. I also left a review on Opentable.com, the site I made my reservations on paraphrasing the above. Any recomendations on other review sites to leave feedback? howlinowl * Super Secret Lurker Stealth Mode On *
