Had a great experience celebrating my friend's birthday! Our server Emily was absolutely wonderful—so kind, attentive, and on top of everything. The food and drinks were good, but the menu could use a little improvement since there isn't a lot to choose from. Overall, we still had a really nice time!

We started off really enjoying the rooftop area with a glass of wine, and then moved down to the bar when we found two empty seats. Unfortunately, once we were seated at the bar, the experience took a turn for the worse.

There were people standing directly behind us who not only crowded our space but were literally reaching over our shoulders and placing their empty drink glasses right in front of us, in front of our own glasses of wine. It felt especially rude and really made us feel uncomfortable and claustrophobic.

To add to this, when our pizza was served to us—something we ordered directly from the bar—those same people behind us actually tried to take the pizza from the server. It was clear they were not seated at the bar, yet they were allowed to place orders and hover around us, while we were told we had to use another designated area if we wanted to sit elsewhere. This gave the impression that the bartenders might be playing favorites with regulars over new customers, which really didn’t feel welcoming.

Overall, we felt that this crowding and lack of fair treatment definitely took away from our experience. We hope that in the future, some crowd control and a more consistent approach to seating and ordering will help everyone have a more enjoyable time.

I've been here before, and it was not the same vibe although it was nice because the room was open to outside. I feel like the menu was bigger in the past, but I could be wrong. Service was pretty slow once we were finally given menus after sitting there for a while, with nothing. The serving size of their dishes that seemed like mains were tiny, luckily we don't eat much but an average person would not be happy with it. Also, the appetizer I wanted was no longer on the menu, but hopefully it'll come back around soon.

Probably one of the best rooftops with a great view all around Columbus

The VIBES!! I felt like I was in California while at this bar! The rooftop provides beautiful views and the vibes were great for the 30+ crowd! The drinks were great, with the Halloween themed one being my favorite! The food was okay, but the atmosphere makes up for it! Great for a date night or meet up with a few friends!

It’s unfortunately just a sports bar. Came here for a date night thinking it was a sophisticated rooftop (considering the prices) and sadly couldn’t hear my date over the loud music and obnoxious people.

We came with a group of 7 and were seated at a small booth. The food and the service were very good. But the noise level was VERY LOUD, so much so that it was difficult to carry on any conversations. It should be published that you permit large crowds of people to come in off the street and stand in the middle of the room drinking, talking loudly and blocking the view of those seated with reservations. The view is the main reason most people come to a rooftop restaurant. Please limit the number of people to those with reservations so that we can enjoy the ambiance of rooftop dining rather than the loudness of a campus bar.

Was a great experience! Went for my friends birthday, had a reservation and they had a sign and all. Our server was amazing, drinks were great, and food was SOOO GOOD! 10/10 would recommend. Little bit expensive but the experience was worth it!!

I like this place. The vibe is good and the drinks are very good. The only downside is that during the weekends, you hardly find a place to sit.

This was our first time and we enjoyed every minute. Our Wagyu beef tips were delicious. The oysters were superb and our service was wonderful. Of course the view from up there is spectacular.

This is the worst bar experience I have ever had in my entire life. Everything started out fine when we came in before a show and had one drink. We went to a show, and then went and had dinner and decided to come back for a few more drinks after dinner. When my husband and I ordered another drink for ourselves, we waited over 20 minutes and never got our drinks. We asked our waitress where our drinks were and were told they were on their way that the bar was very busy, but the bar was not busy. I went up to the waitress and told her that one of our friends wanted a drink as well and to add that to our order and then that is when we were told that we were being “paced” because we had been there earlier. But we had been there many hours earlier so I don’t know what she was thinking. The manager was standing next to her and got very rude and in my face and told me if I didn’t like it, they were going to call the police and have us escorted out. I said that if that was the case, then we were going to leave so I went back to the table and told our party that we were going to leave. At that point the management had already called the police, who then forcefully escorted us from the bar, even though we had been peacefully sitting there, enjoying our drinks the entire time.

And on top of that, they tried to charge us for the drinks that they refuse to service us!

I guess they didn’t like having a party of slightly older people in their bar and wanted us to leave. I have never been so rudely treated in my entire life. I would not recommend this bar and I will never return.

Drinks came quickly. Food came very very very slowly. But it was still great. Just don't be in a hurry -- we weren't!

Wonderful all around. Food surprisingly great! Would definitely go back and perfect place for a special occasion.
