    This was a first date and was great with service and the patio seating. The music was louder than expected and we had to yell over the noise a few times. The food was delicious. So even with the noise, I would return.

    The dining area is uncomfortably noisy. Hard to have a conversation without screaming. I tried to make a reservation for a Peking Duck dinner but the manager did not respond to my calls or emails. Service was mediocre. Food was well prepared, but too pricey. Will not return.

    We had a great time at Ace’s first drag brunch! We needed to change our reservation and also had multiple mobility devices to accommodate. The staff didn’t bat an eye and made sure we had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and even though they were just, the service was on point! We had been to Ace before but not for brunch. We will definitely be back!

    Had a really fun time at Ace Eat and Serve for our daughters 10th birthday. The food was different than what we normally eat but we knew that ahead of time and even our picky 6-year-old enjoyed the meal. I liked that were didn't have to check out anything for ping pong, kids could play while we watched and then we all played as a family. A little expensive but what isn't these days. Server was really attentive and knowledgeable. Would go back just for the naked wings alone!

    The food was fabulous, the wait staff was perfect, but the music when we got there was loud and the singer not very good, which made the loudness even less pleasant. As soon as the singer finished, we loved the rest of the evening. We would go back in a heart beat. The covered patio was awesome too.

    Ordered the Brussels and Shishito appetizer. It look an hour to come out, it came out with the food… def should have came before bc It was cold and there was one shishito. I was annoyed. I ordered the salad and there was I kid you not 2.5 cups of apricots. It just wasn’t good and our server was slacking hard.. rarely brought us water. The Aperol sprits were not made correctly. Don’t get me wrong I normally love ace but this was the worse I’ve seen it.

    Our service was really poor. Our server didn’t greet us for a drink order for 15 minutes, then drinks took 20 minutes to receive. We waited another 10 minutes after that to put in our food orders. Our food took 40 minutes to receive. We only saw our server maybe 3 times from the time we arrived to when we paid (2 hours). She also had us pay before even receiving our desserts we ordered. It took 10 minutes to get our cards back after giving them to her. Dinner and drinks for 2 was over $80 and the service was awful. Not going back.

    We have dined at Ace, Eat, Serve on numerous occasions, and were very much so looking forward to a great meal. It was our first date in a very long time after having a baby, and unfortunately the food was almost inedible. We always get the crispy beef and broccoli, so of course, that was out go-to! It was so different than times in the past. Very thick, chewy, tasted old and like it had been left out for days. The ramen was absolutely disgusting, and the potstickers tasted worse than store bought frozen ones. The only positive note was our server. He was amazing and this was no fault of his. We actually spit out our food, paid our bill and left full plates on the table and walked next door to Park & Co and ate instead. Never have I ever had such an awful experience and done that before. Really sad to see how downhill the food has gone.

    The food an service was top notch. They had live entertainment that was too loud to carry on a conversation when seated on the patio. Seating inside helped a bit but still a bit too loud for easy conversation

    The food was truly excellent. Waitress got to us quickly and seemed well-informed on menu, was cheerful and fun. Labelling some items "GF" for gluten free when they can't actually be made without gluten is confusing and misleading, but other than that, a very positive experience.

    We loved the chicken wings and potstickers. The chicken ramen was not great- the broth in particular wasn't tasty. The tofu salad would've been good if it wasn't swimming in a lake of salty ingredients. The service was fantastic. I will go back but maybe stick to drinks and apps there.

    Love Ace, one of our favs. The food was fantastic, particularly the Tiger Wings. SO GOOD! The service was super slow the last time we were there, but maybe it was due to a shortage of workers, I can't be sure. However, our server was very pleasant and apologetic for the slowness. We will for sure be back, maybe even next weekend!

    We had great service at first, but servers changed once our food was delivered. We were done eating for a long time and had to ask for to-go containers. Then a long time later we had to ask for the check, and it took forever for them to come back for payment.

    Overall the food and service were good, albeit slow, but our waitress made up for the delays by offering free dessert and a gift card for ping pong play on our next visit so everyone was satisfied. Great ambience and everyone was very friendly. We weren't able to partake in the activities but look forward to coming back to try the whole Peking duck and some ping pong.
