Great views. Service was good. Rooftop could do with some design help. Drinks were ok. Could be a much nicer destination with some effort

I've heard bad things about this place but the view was gorgeous and service was great! our table wasn't ready on time due to issues with the firepit, but it was well worth the wait at the bar for such a nice table and view. drinks are expensive (especially for using plastic glasses) but not significantly more than other dc prices as long as you stick to wine and beer. you're paying for the view and it was worth it, even as a dc local who's seen the skyline a thousand times. my family visiting from out of town loved it! thanks for taking good care of us!

$303 tab! 22% automatic gratuity!!! After ordering, told as other food arrived that all pizzas and falafel was not available, which is what we ordered. So had to reorder as others had their food. The replacements, terrible! Burger sliders had no flavor, dry! Our server was a super nice person, but also had the entire roof top to deal with herself. So no wonder that things got jacked up. And for that price, $303!!!! Where's the service?!?! I do not recommend this experience!

Beautiful views but astronomically overpriced. 1 waitress for the entire patio. Food is airport bar quality

The views are excellent and there are some fun drinks on the menu. The food was good though a bit pricy. My biggest criticism is that I find the seating to be a bit awkward. The lounge chairs and smaller tables are nice if you are just there for a drink but they should consider possibly putting in high top tables and chairs for people who want to have food.

Couldn’t accommodate seating all though we made a reservation. Don’t allow people to make reservations then tell them you can’t sit them

Beautiful views is where it ends. Rude and unfriendly bartenders and overpriced. Bad customer service. Meh.

The price is a little high, but it's definitely worth it! There is no doubt that the view is amazing! In case you are too hungry, the food is just for a bite. :) Loved it!

Prices are very high and don't have to be. Seeing the sunset over the Potamac was great. Automatic 20% gratuity was painful. Great experience but they need to come down on drink and food prices.

The service and ambiance was outstanding. It was our anniversary, and the staff surprised us with champagne! Kal, the bartender, was lovely, friendly, and just aimed to please. His drinks were superb!! And, the view by the water is second to none.
Food was trash, burger sliders tasted like a hockey puck. The Falafel app was literally hard as a hockey puck. Everything is over priced even for DC. Multiple fire pits were broken. The view was nice. I recommend telling the front that you will be buying a drink at the bar and just go check the view and spend your money and time elsewhere. Service was meh as they auto gratuity 20% so why even try right?

Very expensive drinks and bar selection is super limited. Bar tender did not know how to make many classics we asked for. For being so expensive, they should have a better selection and better trained bar tender. Also, the terrace furniture are ok. Again, for suck expensive cocktails, one would expect a slicker decor. Views are stunning. I guess that's what your paying for.

The space is very underutilized, the prices are absolutely ridiculous for the value you get. $25 cocktails and $18 mocktails are Miami south beach front of three water 5 star world famous pricing, not a washed up hotel in DC. The food menu is kind of sad and again priced as a Michelin restaurant. It makes sense why this place is dead, because it's insanely overpriced. No restaurant in DC deserves charging $25 /Cocktails $23 spring mix salad with croutons.

A mediocre bar with overpriced drinks in a good location overlooking Wonka’s chocolate brown water below. Hard pass, head to the wharf.
