The General

Very bad place — maybe the worst restaurant I’ve been to ever — no communication between staff — frantic — so loud you cannot hear what anybody says — took half an hour to get drinks — food is only fine — their treatment of food allergies is alarming and dangerous — the different waiters — food servers and mangers all have different incorrect information on the safety of their foods — they refused to let me speak to the chef to find out if my food was safe for my allergy — finally — after many many back and forths and the waitress disappearing and returning with one answer then another — the waitress said it was safe — I ate it — then the server and manager (there are
Many many incompetent people rotating around in a state of chaos — all uninformed — with varying degrees of English and impossible to hear because of the booming music) both told me no I couldn’t eat it after all — they claimed they had a special menu For my allergy but never brought it and then yet another server lied and made up some reason he thought the food might be unsafe — finally I went back to the kitchen — the manager stopped me and continued to lie — they went back to the kitchen for the umpteenth time — and vanished — came back and told me indeed it was unsafe after I had already eaten it — this place is not only awful but dangerous — the bill was 140.00 for a simple meal for three — with total incompetence — I ended up eating only several bites of possibly dangerous food — we were unable to even have a converstion it was so loud — this is the type of restaurant that will be closed very soon.

My company holiday party was here, so take this review with a grain of salt as I didn’t pay for s-​h-​i-​t. Also, I’m a bit confused as to what the difference between Finale and The General is, so I’m just going to assume that The General is the larger side with the bar in the middle.
The space is huge. From the street, you can peer in through the floor to ceiling windows to get a scope of how many people this place seats or how many people it can accomodate.
We had internal catering for the party, which was fine. Nothing too special. Some chicken skewers and sushi (which is a weird hor d’oeuvre). Mains were just sliders (tuna and beef) and steamed dumplings. The beef sliders were good. The tuna ones were dry. The steamed dumplings were adequate for lining your stomach for booze.
The bar in the middle is pretty huge, so it may take a while to get some service, but they were nice guys.
