Atmosphere & staff were great. Food was just okay. Would return for drinks & appetizers.

We went to Deluxe Fun a week ago during Feast Week! I discovered them on TikTok and decided to give them a shot, and they didn’t disappoint. They do accept reservations through Yelp and we were seated promptly when we arrived (and we went on a Friday night). This place is all about the theatrics and presentation of your food (get your cameras ready). My popcorn shrimp came out in an actual popcorn machine, on a bed of popcorn. And on top of that, their food is actually pretty good. It didn’t blow my mind, but this was a great place to experience. I couldn’t really see myself frequenting this place because I did note that it’s a bit pricey, but a nice place to go with friends every once in a while.

my friend invited me to dine at this restaurant. really liked it. food is top notch. The food is exquisite and out of the ordinary. really liked the salad. the octopus was just amazing. and also nice staff. while waiting for a table, we talked with the hostess, such a young but very pleasant girl, Yana. She was really cute ?. I will definitely recommend this place ❤️

Had a great time for my birthday dinner! Staff was wonderful! The presentations for the food was beautiful and the food was even better! 10/10 recommended would definitely go again! Also the drinks are to die for!

Best dining experience and excellent service. Food was exotic and drinks were Creative and tasty.

I was hoping for a fun dining experience, but I got that and so much more!! Stylish decor, impeccable service, creative culinary presentation and everything we ate was absolutely to die for! The flavors were original and delicious. The drinks were also fun with edible gold and flowers! Would be an impressive date choice.

When we saw this on the list for restaurant week, we were very excited to try this place out. The menu sounded wonderful and we thought we had found something really unique and special. While the presentation was very fun and unique, I felt as though that took away from the actual quality of food that was served. The popcorn shrimp was no different than ordering from a chain restaurant other than it coming on a stale bed of popcorn inside a popcorn maker with dry ice (which was cool). I ordered blackened salmon with shrimp. The Salmon was not blackened, it was broiled and only one large shrimp on top. I did enjoy the peacock platter it was served on. I ordered the Prosecco jello which came in a cute wine glass, but it was very evident it had been made days in advance. The jello was so stiff you could barely get your spoon through it. Depending what you're looking for in a restaurant, if it's for great quality fine dining, this isn't it. For a fun unique experience in a funky atmosphere, this place is for you. I do wish this establishment success in the future.

We booked a reservation for two on the first day of Restaurant Week. At that time, the only time available was 5pm. When we arrived, we were promptly seated. The restaurant was not very full. The decor was lovely and upbeat. There was music playing via speakers throughout the restaurant. The speaker near us kept fading in and out which was a little annoying.Our server came to the table promptly to take our drink and food orders. Her excellent service continued throughout our stay. The first course arrived quickly. Deluxe is known for over the top fun food presentation. The Lobster Puffs were served on a toaster. The Crab Dip was served on a wooden board along with a bird. Both items were good although the crab dip was a bit salty.Shortly after, our entrees arrived. This is where things began to decline a bit. My Salmon and Shrimp came with one shrimp which was overcooked. The salmon and broccolini were pretty good. The mashed potatoes were more like scalloped potatoes. The pineapple shrimp bowl, while flavorful, was overcooked and mushy.Then the dessert arrived. The Tiramisu was pretty good although someone was extremely heavy-handed with the cocoa powder on top. The Cheesecake was an indescribably weird combination of random things (popcorn and grapes?!?) that unfortunately just didn't work.While the presentation is very cool, more focus needs to be made on the actual preparation and service of the food. Trust the reviews!

I was intrigued when I saw this place on tiktok and definitely had to give it a try, and I will indeed say that it absolutely did not disappoint! Loved the overall vibe of the place, and the staff was very attentive. If you can’t decide on what to get, go with the Diced Pineapples cocktail which comes with edible gold and dry ice, and the Lobster Puffs of Heaven which had the perfect mix of lobster and cheese. For the entree I would recommend the Gold Lamb Chops which come with veggies and are wrapped in 18K gold! Lastly, how could anyone not love their wooden trays with all kinds of animals and decorations. This place is so unique, I cannot wait to go back!

Loved the atmosphere, service was great, took my kids here and they absolutely loved their plating and presentation, every meal comes out on a cool tray, ex. I had a huge flamingo and my son had a wearable helmet! The food looked amazing, but tasted even better, I would personally recommend the bbq of bones.
