The experience of being on the roof was amazing...the cocktails were good as well a little too pricey $30 for 2 drinks and $85 for a bottle of rose. The food was terrible taste like they cooked it in a microwave or it sat under a heat lamp..I gave 2 stars simply because the food was very expensive and did not taste well at all..I requested butter because the meat was hard and dry I was charged $10 for it! Not only was I charged but it was cold like they just took it from the fridge and served it in a bowl...after all that being said the server was very nice ???? it was again the food for the price...also no smoking, vaping, I overheard another customer asking if it was ok and tge reply was no.

Such a great location and the views and drinks are top! The staff has always been amazing despite all the challenges they've faced. Highly recommend

I come here for cocktails often and sit at the bar. They are great, the bartenders are great, everything seems up to par! The interior is really pretty. However, the last time I was here, I also went up to the Rooftop. They have a limited amount of drinks available there, but our drinks were still okay. Then we ordered food - not a good idea. I don't know if it's because they are upstairs, or the food is this bad downstairs, too, but it was awful. I ordered the Salmon salad, and my friend ordered the Half Chicken. The salad was NOT good, and we agreed that my salmon did not look cooked. But honestly there was basically a plate of arugula and the fish. There aren't any veggies or anything in the salad - not impressive. The chicken was just okay - but also very bland and not incredibly warm. Service was just okay up there, but the view is nice. We didn't have to wait, but it was a Monday. Parking: There is no parking lot, but they do give you a coupon if you are in a lot or ramp close by
