The views are top-notch! We made a reservation and online listed it was for a birthday (my mom’s!) and they moved us to a better table with clearer views! We did an hour before sunset so we would see it in the daytime and at night. Yummy drinks and food. So happy we made it here on our trip! Worth it after a day in Brooklyn.

Expensive but apps are delicious. Great views to boot. Service can be just a bit slow.

Stunning views and worth it for the view over the NYC skyline but be prepared for the horrendous service. We waited over 30 minutes for our drinks, and when I asked our waitress if she’d be able to check on them for us she snapped and said “I’m not the one making them” and stormed off. Unbelievably rude, shocking given the prices

Westlight is an absolute top 5 pick for best rooftop restaurant in NYC. With breathtaking views, delicious small plates, unique drinks, and one of the largest rooftop spaces you'll find in the 5 boroughs, Westlight is easily one of the best rooftop spots that you can find in NYC. The food was flavorful and appetizing, especially the jerk oxtail sliders!! To top it all off, the staff was simply amazing. Every single employee I encountered was not only courteous, attentive and knowledgeable, but just all-round wonderful people. And as if the glass-enclosed and terrace dining areas weren't great enough, they have a large open lawn a level above, that offers completely unobstructed views from all angles. Westlight is definitely a new addition to my favorites, and I'm eager to visit again soon!!

Can’t say enough about this place, a hidden gem in Brooklyn. The roof top has the best scene that I have seen at night of the city. The staff members are super friendly and very attentive. They even gave my wife a blanket for the cold night. Try the Brussels sprouts and the Burger.

Food and drinks were very mediocre not worth the price. The best part about this rooftop was the music and the ambience that’s it.

I would've given it a 5 star if it wasn't for the very unprofessional security guard on the outside terrace constantly harassing people trying to take photos.

We would simply try to take a picture during the sunset and this man would go up to everyone trying to take a photo and demand them to go back into the restaurant with a very unprofessional tone of voice and a lot of animosity.

I understand certain areas might be reserved but at least make that clear in the website and hire a security guard that speaks with professionalism and not animosity and an attitude.

Aside from that, the food was good, the drinks overpriced, the servers were nice and attentive, great atmosphere, and the view ok, could've been better if it wasn't for the excuse of a security guard they have there.

The scenery is absolutely stunning. If you’re coming here to take beautiful photos or enjoy the night view, this place is definitely worth it. But if you’re looking for great food, it might not be the best choice. The prices are moderate—not cheap, but not too expensive either. It’s definitely a great spot for dates or gatherings.
The photo shows what I ordered when I went there—everything was quite good except for the Coke. Maybe it’s just because I don’t like flavored Coke, but honestly, it tasted terrible.

P.S. I recommend sitting indoors during spring, autumn and winter. You can step outside to take some photos, but don’t eat out there. The wind was so strong when I went that my food got cold right after it was served. Overall, though, I’d still highly recommend this place.

Ridiculous place, I've booked and not being notified there was no parking. So we had to struggle on finding it, and once get inside they told us our reservation were canceled because of 15 min late. Very disappointed. No service and no ethics.
