Worst dining experience in any city in the last 20 years. There for special occasion dropping my son off at college. Server actually forgot to enter our main course order in the computer. About 20 minutes after we finished the appetizers, the server came back to “confirm” the entree orders, which was a ruse. 10 minutes after that, he came back to tell us the kitchen just ran out of the cod entree my son had ordered — which would not have happened if our orders had been entered 40 minutes prior, when the server actually took them from us. Took TWO HOURS for our entrees to be brought out. They had taken our silverware when they cleared the appetizers from the table, so after two hours of waiting for our entrees, we had to sit there and stare at the food for another 15 minutes because they never brought new silverware. I had to go to the hostess station myself and get silverware for the table. The salmon entrees were insultingly small, only 2 ounces. Over the course of two hours waiting for our food, we observed other salmon entrees being brought to adjacent tables, and the portion sizes were shrinking as the night went on. It was clear that after having run out of the cod entree, the restaurant was also running out of salmon and was cheating the customers by reducing the portion sizes to stretch the “inventory.” We raised these issues with our server. All he did was say “sorry.” No effort whatsoever to make things right with the check, with the food, or otherwise. No visit from the manager. Nothing. They ruined our last evening with our son and couldn't have cared less.

It is without doubt that I highly recommend the dining experience at Altana Rooftop Lounge. Every aspect of the evening dining experience was top quality and I cannot wait to return.

Very quiet atmosphere, which we like, I didn't feel like I had to yell at my wife to her for her to be able to hear me. it rained so the rooftop was not open, but that gave us an excuse to come back again. Very small menu because it's a bar/lounge, but the food was very good. My wife and I do not drink alcohol, they had one of the best mocktails. we both agreed, It was the pineapple, orange, ginger non alcoholic. we had two entrées, 3 separate mock tails, dessert and our bill was only $81. That is not bad at all in our opinion.  we will definitely be back and highly recommend it to others.

We were a party of 2 on a Saturday night looking to have a relaxing time. Our server was awesome. The bar made drinks so fast and delicious! The atmosphere was great. Something was going on in the kitchen, possibly new people, maybe understaffed, but our food took over an hour. It all tasted amazing, was cooked exactly how we asked. Our server felt so bad that he gave us a free dessert. Since we were looking to have a leisurely time it didn't bother us. We could see some other tables were frustrated. The servers and food runners looked very frazzled and were doing their best. I would absolutely go again, just maybe not if I'm in a hurry.

Spent the 4th of July with my auntie on the rooftop. Our server Cole was the best! The drinks were really good, pricey but good. For our meals we had crab cakes small plate, house salad, and the bbq ribs with Mac and cheese. The mac and cheese was good, the ribs weren't tender at all and the crab cakes were bland. The views were nice and the evening was as well.

Excellent service and fantastic food. Lovely rooftop venue (guests are seated in a restaurant if it rains). Happy, relaxed staff. Easy parking around the corner with a walkway to King Street.

Our waiter was very attentive. The lounge is absolutely beautiful. The avocado fries are to die for!!!

The only thing worth going here for are the cocktails and the view. However you will wait awhile for cocktails. Food was terribly over cooked and dry after waiting awhile. Considerably overpriced for the portions as well as just how mediocre the taste of the food was. We really did like our drinks but they took 20+ minutes to get. We got them around the same time we got our apps. We hardly saw our server to even tell him how our food was. The older gentleman who is the host/manager? Was a bit rude and off putting. Ultimately we might be back to sit at the bar, maybe the drinks will be faster that way? But we wouldn't eat here again.

Great cocktails. Appetizers- Fried avocado was excellent and the wings were crispy and delicious. Entrees- Ribs with Mac n cheese was amazing and the crab stuffed cod was delicious.

Our server was Zena and she was wonderful. Anticipated needs and was very gracious about me spilling an entire glass of red wine at the beginning of our dinner.

We were sitting there for an hour and a half almost waiting just for our boxes and checks and the food . However they did hold my table and gave me a free dessert. The food was great. Service, not so much.
