    Our experience was phenomenal! The ambiance of the building and getting into the elevator and heading to the rooftop, entering the restaurant and sitting down with all the open windows and space was incredible. The service was exceptional, our waitress Laura was attentive, knowledgeable and very friendly. The food was amazing and the prices for the food offered were reasonable. The drinks were also delicious, would highly recommend the espresso martini with baileys! We will definitely be back for another date night in the future.

    It must be difficult to have the perfect location and gourmet food at the same place. This is a lovely restaurant with many excellent choices for what to eat, but I expected it to be more gourmet. However, my mocktail the spicy margarita was delicious. Thank you.

    The food was excellent. The service was excellent, and the environment is beautiful. I will say and this has been several times that the lemon drop martini is very weak. Put a little bit more vodka in and you’ve got yourself a real winner.
