Absolutely the best resturant around! The food was perfect and I went with my wife twice! The tacos were really good pork or fish, and the fries were cooked perfectly. Andrea was an amazing bartender/hostess!! Huge shout out to her and the rest of the staff that made us feel welcome on our vacation here! I only wish we could be here for the new menu coming soon!!!

Great service, food, and atmosphere! We had a quick and attentive bartender. Both food and drinks came out quickly and I really enjoyed everything! It is pricey compared to what else is available in town, but I’d pay the premium for the better and quicker service any day.

My husband Louie and my good friend Melissa had a wonderful tasty dinner. The Parmesan crusted whitefish and pork tacos were delicious. Highly recommended!

View is very nice and the actual setting is awesome. The food we experienced was marginal at best. Ordered a vodka press and bartender told me that it was not a cocktail and insinuated that I was a tourist from out of state and was requesting something that was beyond the realm. Much better options that are within walking distance of the hotel.

Overpriced Sysco meals. Very much felt like these meals were picked out of a catalog, reheated, and sold at a premium price. Not even the lemonade was real—it was Crystal Lite. While the view is very nice, if you’re looking for good food that is worth its price, you’re better off looking elsewhere. This place vastly over-represents itself online.

Great views! The cocktails are great and the bartenders are friendly. We always have a good time there. Its not like the other bars in the area, it has more of a sophisticated vibe.
There is food there now, but I haven't tried anything yet.

I've always had a great time and the bartenders are great! One of my favorite places to grab a good cocktail in town and the food is always satisfying! I wish the Charcuterie had a few more elements to it (brine/sour/sweet) but regardless, I always leave happy

Disappointed in the changes. A cup of coffee with daylight view would be nice to start the day. By the time we returned to the hotel from our day, it was dark and difficult to enjoy the view. It wasn't very busy when we were there
The bartenders were very friendly.

A little pricey for serving size but that beef wellington exceeded all my expectations. Everything was really good tbh.

Exceptional food, top-notch service, stunning views, and a cozy yet sophisticated vibe, it’s truly a one-of-a-kind gem in the area!

Overall cocky dry good, charcuterie board good as well, service needs help as our charcuterie board arrived way before our cocktails, sat by bar and watched nobody even started making cocktails until we said something, so a little pricey for the service we received in my opinion
