On 25.3 it seems to be working as advertised.

"
(menu-bar-mode &optional ARG)

Toggle display of a menu bar on each frame (Menu Bar mode).
With a prefix argument ARG, enable Menu Bar mode if ARG is
positive, and disable it otherwise.  If called from Lisp, enable
Menu Bar mode if ARG is omitted or nil.
"


You can turn it off with menubar > options > show/hide and then on by 
evaluating (menu-bar-mode [nil])
or
M-x menu-bar-mode

(menu-bar-mode 0) evaluated turns it off because 0 is not positive.
