The Observatory Reviews
Excellent service and great atmosphere. The food was all delicious with our favorites beeing the crab soup, salmon, and the pana cotta.
Amazing, worth the money. Our waiter (Anton? I think their name was) was amazing. Super knowledgeable about the food and drinks. They made sure our anniversary was special
Amazing views if you manage to get an outdoor spot close to the railing, and the food was good. The staff got our orders slightly wrong, but corrected it when we pointed it out. Overall good service!
