    Not the best experience. Everything was very rushed . Despite telling the waiter we were being rushed if we hadn't sent our main courses back we'd have been out of the restaurant in under an hour.

    Nice place in very nice location of the city. Food was nice but overpriced compared to many other places. Service was horrible to honest, I never had so poor service. The restaurant was almost empty and all table have to wait asking for details like salt paper like 7,8 min when food is on the table…

    What an amazing experience! From the moment the doors open on the elevator you really do get hit with the wow factor. Music made it hard to hear the barman but the wife and I are over 40!! Views are outstanding the vibe of the whole place is off the charts! Truly fell in love with the vibe and ambience. The staff were amazing and couldn’t do enough. The food was excellent! I had the best steak they could offer and was expecting it to be the best steak of my life! It wasn’t. But it was very good! Overall a truly amazing experience! Can’t recommend high enough. And if you can get a private cabin overlooking the City Skyline I doubt that id ever leave!!
