Restaurant reveiw: Ninja New York
CONFUSING the point of a restaurant with the mission of a "Saturday Night Live" skit, Ninja New York deposits you in a kooky, dreary subterranean labyrinth that seems better suited to coal mining than to supping. You are greeted there by servers in black costumes who ceaselessly bow, regularly yelp and ever so occasionally tumble, and you are asked to choose between two routes to your table.
The first is described by a ninja escort as simple and direct. The second is "dark, dangerous and narrow," involving a long tunnel and a drawbridge that descends only when your escort intones a special command, which he later implores you to keep secret.
Tommy, I just linked to that review in my LJ. The whole concept is just so wrong on so many levels.

It sounds kinda' boring. If only your waiter/waitress had to occasionally defend your table from zombie attack. Or maybe the occasional pirate raid.
But is ninja food any good?
Nah. It has that annoying way of vanishing before you even see it.
From the review:
But you will be spared an infinitely larger measure of tedium, a visually histrionic smorgasbord of undistinguished food and a discordant bill that can easily exceed $100 a person with tax, tip and drinks.
Sounds like Medieval Times is the better bargin.

sounds like this other place I went to in NY, the Explorer's Club or something. You had to use secret passwords, and such.
