We decided to try Helix for dinner (we were staying at the Vibe) and were very impressed! Although the menu is small, there were enough choices to suit all of us. The food itself was fantastic. Serving sizes were good, the taste and quality was excellent. Food was brought quickly to our table, and the staff were friendly. We will definitely be back.
