Leave a Review2026 silk pajama brunch feedback: Loved the concept of a “Silk Pajama Brunch” at new year. However, for a themed experience like this, consistency really matters. If pajamas are the theme, the restaurant should have enforced it more clearly. Allowing jeans, coats, and T-shirts significantly diluted the vibe. Providing coat check and setting clearer dress expectations would have helped maintain the intended atmosphere. An even better solution would be selling silk pajamas at the hotel gift shop or at the restaurant entrance—this would enhance the experience and be a win-win for the business. The theme aims for a comfy, homey luxurious feel, and sticking to that vision more strictly would elevate the overall diner experience. One additional note, the carving station needs to be kept warm. Overall, great concept with room for stronger execution. ————— Great view and awesome building, food were amazing
See moreWe attended the St. Patrick’s Day party at Miru this year and it was simply wonderful! It’s a pretty large space with two buffet stations, multiple bars throughout the floor, special drink stations, extensive coffee bar and a candy bar with to-go bags. There was a live DJ playing Millennial bangers and today’s hits. I can’t speak highly enough of the space – there was still room to walk, you weren’t shoulder to shoulder and the floor is long enough that you couldn’t really hear the DJ from the east end, which is great if you’re looking for a more chill vibe. The drinks were good and flowing! Food was super delicious, and there was a good variety from breakfast items, bao buns, chicken nuggets, french fries, mini sliders, rice entrees and sushi. There’s a few high tops and bar areas where you can stand to eat. Otherwise, it’s purely standing room only –unless you paid for a table. We paid for the general area, but there was another closed off section for a more VIP experience. It looked like the GA and VIP used the same outdoor terrace area, but the VIP side was sectioned off and offered tables and chairs. The GA terrace side was standing only. It was chilly, so folks didn’t hang outside too much. But even with that, the indoor space wasn’t overly packed. There was a good view the of the river dying. Everyone was really considerate when viewing –folks would look, take photos and then move for others to see. The price was a bit steep after the service fee and tax, but it’s a nice experience to try at least once!
