Environment was excellentServer was good but...Service was incredibly slow (they were apparently understaffed but we counted ~1 server/bartender for every 2 tables)Food was greatDrinks were awful. They tasted watered down and just had no flavour. Couldn't taste any alcohol in them at all

Came here for a late meal and some drinks with my husband. We didn't know anything about the place so we were pleasantly surprised by the 3 rooftop patios. We were seated at the bar on the 3rd and highest patio. The bartender was great, super hospitable, friendly and attentive. There was lots of people and she was working hard. The other staff were friendly too. The view is really nice at dusk. Great spot!

Went out lastnight with a group of friends and ordered some drinks and food.My first drink was a Gin and Soda water since they didnt have sparkling water. Anyway, my drink comes and it tastes like it didnt have any gin it in so my next one i ordered a double of the same drink. The double i could taste Gin but not very strong so i let the waitress know (she was great by the way,wish i remembered her name) and she said she will let the bar staff know. My third double was noticeably stronger and what it should have been to begin with.The nachos in the picture were average. Nothing stood out except that they were too salty. Layering was good atleast with lots of toppings.Overall not a bad place but it can definitely be better. The view is probably the best thing about this place.

The views are impressive! Came for apps and cocktails and wasn't disappointed. The margaritas are very clean, good beer selection and very friendly service. A bonus was the DJ, who played great music!

Our family of four went there yesterday. Sadly the waitress spilled a full drink on my white capris and my husbands new shorts. We were very understanding considering the uncomfortableness of sitting in wet shorts for an hour. We were offered Soda water and paper towels. The manager, whatever he was, sat over at the bar on his lab top. There was no way, he didn’t see what had transpired, as we was about 10 feet away, facing us. He just completely ignored the situation. Both my husband and I had expected some sort of compensation for what had transpired. Absolutely zero reductions taken off of our bill. I can honestly say that, we have never received such unsatisfactory results in regards to a situation that was not our fault. I have been trying to call there since yesterday when we got back home and no one answers the phone. Plus you cannot leave a message. The treatment we received for soaking our shorts was pathetic and absolutely not acceptable. It was our third time eating there over the summer…Shame! Shame on this place! Treat your customers better and do not ignore such situations!

I was wandering downtown when i was unfortunately struck by a vehicle, I had broken my leg in three places and when i arrived at the restaurant, I was displeased to find they wouldn't treat my injury! I know they must have a first aid kid and likely the equipment required for a quick tourniquet. Overall very sad at the unfriendly and quite frankly, unprofessional service I get when trying to enjoy a night on the town.

Lovely environment. Lovely staff. Amazing food.

Interesting concept, friendly service, overpriced drinks/food.

Nice spot. Food and drinks need some modifications a lot of spicy things on the menu.
