Met friends for a birthday brunch buffet. We enjoyed the atmosphere and accommodations a lot! Yellow jackets were in full force trying to drink our mimosas, however. The food was good quality, but they didn't have the items on the buffet chilled, so the yogurt parfaits and some of the other items were warm, by the time we started eating them...not tasty. I would go back for another occasion, but it might not be a routine stop in our rotation. They did have a dj for brunch, which was pretty cool and space for our friends to dance.
Parking: We were lucky enough to find free street parking because it was a quiet sunday morning.

I celebrated my birthday there last night and let me tell you what a time was had. I had such a great time. The DJ was awesome. My server Jaime Was very friendly. We did bottle service with food, loved the wings. The view was beautiful from the rooftop. I could not of asked for a better night.

The vibe here was absolutely great. The rooftop itself is beautiful - very spacious, cute and aesthetic. The DJ was doing his thing and everyone was living it up on the dance floor. I was part of a group that had a cabana booth with plenty of seating right next to all the action. Our server, Rebecca, was so so amazing. She continuously checked on us throughout the night and made all of us laugh. She will be the reason we come back! The only critique I have is the food - I recommend eating before or after you come here. All in all, we had an excellent time and can’t wait to come back! Everyone should come check it out - the vibes are immaculate

The space & vibe are worth the trip alone! The beverage & food menu are on the limited side, and service is slow. It seems as if most staff don't have clear guidance. Returned for brunch, and it was delicious! Not a big fan of the sweet approach to the chicken. There's was served with french toast and not waffles. I'm from the deep low country of South Carolina so I know shrimp & grits and there's was delicious. Omelet station is slow. The yogurt based deserts were warm, so I worry about bacteria. Biggest nuisance = yellow jackets. They are disruptive to the experience and at the risk of offending some, I just wonder if the city would allow a mild insecticide treatment? The live DJ is a classy touch. Will still be back!

Gave this place three tries and they all were very disappointing! The first time I went with a friend and the rooftop just opened! They didn’t have much food on the menu..hardly any protein options. Left to eat real food and came back for ambiance and the music. Second time I came back a few months later for brunch for my friend bday..waitress was clueless .. it was hot they didn’t have a umbrella for our group..I ordered chicken and waffles and it was soo small ..waffle was the size of an ego waffle - service was terrible. Received with food with no silverware- waitress said she was waiting to talk to management about silverware- we went up to the bar and asked and they had it. My friend and I both ordered the same drink but they appeared very different hers was green mines was orange -we were very confused. Then we were forced to pay high prices and with auto gratuity! It’s sad because the place looks like it has sooo much potential it’s just bad management! I really hope the best —with the right management

The ambience is really nice. Avoid the food. You pay high price for cold food and they replaced it with even worse. They serve the food on a cheap paper plate and plastic utensils ??♂️. Not worth coming back.

I would Avoid this place⚠️ Worst establishment I have ever been to.
1. A Terrible fight broke out on 7/6/24 and everyone ran for their lives including me. I was very scared and thought someone was about to start shooting due to the nature of the brawl.
2. Outrageous drink prices and rude bartenders. Gratuity is automatically added which is fine but it is not mentioned anywhere that it will be added. It’s as if they are sneaking adding it because you don’t find out until after your card is ran. Other businesses always have this posted or printed somewhere for full transparency so why are the bartenders manually typing in a random dollar amount that they choose?

The atmosphere is the real reason you’d go here. The food and service are just deplorable.
I visited on June 23rd and July 6th.
Each time I only purchased an appetizer and a drink. The appetizers were $18 and so were the drinks. It took 40 minutes for one drink and an additional 40 minutes for just the appetizer each visit. On June 23rd the food I received wasn't fresh but I just ate it because I was extremely hungry and it had already taken 40 minutes for it to come. After the food, I became really sick and had to go to the bathroom to force to food to come up. I thought maybe I was just having a bad night but I've never had this issue at any restaurant or bar I've ever been to. So I tried again one more time on July 6th, I didn't get sick this time but the service and experience were all the same. I was charged $156 on June 23rd for only two items and each item was only $18.
The Menu doesn't have that many options as well.
Heed my warning, just find another rooftop babe.

4 stars for the size and look of the rooftop. Nice scenery. Everything else can go in the trash can. The food is trash and was served cold. I went to try their brunch menu, and everything was small plates and overpriced. Shrimp and grits were basic, the potatoes were dry, and the chicken and waffles were disappointing. So the food is overpriced, but you serve me on paper plates and plastic silverware?! The disrespect. Another place that will be grand opening grand closing. These restaurants just start off losing. They don't care about anything besides a grass wall and a bar. Spacious rooftop for music and cocktails if you are a drinker. I watched a party there and the bottle service looked cheap and the bubble machine looked kiddie lol. Again, I watched a birthday group who was sitting in the lounge areas and the bottle service was Titos and had a cheap looking light attached to it. The waitresses had on workout attire, but I guess they were suppose to look classy. It was just a mess, hands down. The place needs a better sound system, and the DJ's music was too loud folks couldn't hear themselves talk. It was 3:30pm. I guess every place wants to be under 18 and / or club. Where do the 40+ crowd go, because this definitely was a disappointment. I am a food snob, world traveler, and events planner. So this place is okay if you don't know any better, however for the ones that do, please do better. But the bar is so low now that you all will probably get a pass. I spent over $100. Tip is already included, which is annoying, and the server did the bare minimum.
It was a guy (said he was hired by the venue) up there taking pictures. He is an entrepreneur and takes pics of folks while they are there in hopes of getting you to purchase the photos. So I just bought all of em for $40 to support him. I had good company, so it was cool but wasn't worth the $100+ I spent. IMO.

The food was NOT fresh. Our waitress did not tend to the table and was not polite. The waitress were catering to one group specifically.

Tonight was my first and probably my last night ever. At the start of the night it was discriminatory. Came in with my bag and was told “no bags” looked ahead and their 5 women in front of me with bags. When I asked why not it was just “men can’t have bags” assuming pronouns?? My lady friend took my bag to go in. Someone said “I heard They don’t let men in because they sell w33d” like women don’t sell w33d?? And even if that was the case I would Just put it in my friends bag! ? but what was really strange is people not of color inside had bags. I went Up to one to ask him how he get it in.. he said “they didn’t say nothing to me” that’s strange. Saturday 5/25/24
