    The view is amazing! The food was delicious I had the salmon with angel pasta best salmon dish I had. My husband got the burger and he said it was very good. Only thing I would say is I wish the tables were a bit bigger and the chairs a little shorter I’m a little person it was hard for me to hop on them chairs lol. Other than that I’ll def be going back again. So good.

    The view was beautiful it’s a nice comfortable set up but the food is over priced bar food it’s like they don’t know if they want to offer the five star experience or dive bar pick a side please also they did not have a lot to choose from the menu was very limited The service was sub par our waitress was serving us and working the bar Overall I would go again but only for drinks I’ll probably eat somewhere else

    Really enjoy the ambiance at the Rooftop. It was a beautiful day and the views were amazing. Arrived on the earlier side (6ish) and the mood was chill and it had a good crowd. Had drinks, apps and dinner. The food is good, not great, but given the view and surroundings definitely worth going. The bartender, Nicole, is the BEST. Super nice and makes a great drink. If you like things chill and calm, arrive earlier, as things pick up as the night goes on. Nice place!

    The staff were very friendly and attentive. The ambience was incredible. The views cannot be beat. The cocktails (I particularly had the peartini) was absolutely delicious and not overpowering. I will be a repeat customer.

    Experience was amazing, I made a reservation and the lady on the phone was very accommodating when I requested for my group to be seated by the fireplace since Saturday night was going to be chilly. She made sure the spot was reserved for me and my group, service was amazing and the fireplace warmth was perfect for the chilly weather.
