Terrible experience as a Canadian there. Our waiter took our card down wich was not mentioned anywhere and charged us 1.40$ out of nowhere also after we mentioned the entire service that we wanted to pay cash because we’re Canadians and using our cards would result to interest fees on our end he still charged us on the card he took previously twice so we had to pay fees and on top of it we asked a couple next to us and they didn’t put a card down as we did after speaking to the manager he simply gave us a business card but didn’t fix the issue or refunded us or compensate us for the fees we got charged. So really bad experience will not go back!very disappointed

Excellent service by Marco!! Unfortunately, the weather did not allow for the outdoor seating, but we enjoyed our time sharing the small meals, drinking cocktails and a delicious cappuccino and complimentary dessert for our birthday celebration. Thank you Marco!!

The bar staff was rude. They poured my partner and I water glasses. After we paid and tipped, I asked for a water and was ignored then eventually directed brusquely to the water container at the end of the bar to pour it myself

The biggest thing this place has going for it is the view obviously, but a lot of the tables don't really get a good angle on it. We went for our anniversary and the most special thing they did for us was the host wishing us happy anniversary lol. The food is good but tiny and the cocktails are fine but nothing special. For the insane prices you can find much more unique fare elsewhere in Williamsburg and Greenpoint 😬

Good place only for the views, other than that it’s terrible food for the price you pay. Not many options as well
I took my mother to Westlight because I wanted to show her something truly beautiful, enjoy the views, and have a nice meal with cocktails—and everything was absolutely perfect.
The atmosphere is stunning, the views are breathtaking, and the overall vibe feels special from the moment you arrive. The cocktails were excellent, the food was delicious, and the service was outstanding.
What meant the most to me was how thoughtful and attentive the staff were with my mom. She can’t have gluten, and they took great care to make sure she felt comfortable and safe. Our server went above and beyond—he even changed a cocktail for my mom’s friend when she didn’t like it, without us even asking. That level of kindness and attention really stood out.
On top of being incredibly professional, our server was also very charming, which made the experience even more enjoyable 😊
It was a perfect evening, and a beautiful memory to share with my mother. I would absolutely recommend Westlight for a special occasion or for anyone who wants to experience NYC at its

Had the most wonderful visit to Westlight!! For starters, the view is an absolute 10 out of 10, killer. It's the perfect height and vantage point for unbelievable views of Queens, Manhattan and Brooklyn. Rose and Charlie were the absolute best, very welcoming, friendly, hospitable and inviting. Will definitely be coming back soon.

Service was remarkably horrible. Views for majority of the restaurant are nonexistent....but my husband is hot and made up for the lack of skyline view

Westlight is an incredible rooftop spot with breathtaking panoramic views of Manhattan and Brooklyn.
The atmosphere feels upscale yet relaxed, making it ideal for a special night out or sunset drinks. Excellent service and unbeatable views — definitely a must-visit rooftop in NYC!
