    I’m actually pretty bummed about this experience tonight. I booked a table for 5 to celebrate my husbands birthday and bringing out of town guests. I asked for a nice table w a view. Instead I got there to be told my reservation had been canceled by Open Table which I did not do. They were able to seat us but WAY in the back inside w/o view next to a loud birthday party. It was hard to chat with our guests. We followed up at the Green Room and again was seated inside away from view l. The server was nice enough to get us closer to window but was still obstructed and the DJ was so loud we couldn’t talk. Staff was really nice, food was good but the whole experience tainted by the really crappy attention using Open Table. We spent a health sum of money for a pretty crappy night.

    Shaunte was a great server and the view was great. Not a fan of the incessant social influencer activity though.

    I celebrated a birthday at this restaurant last night and had an amazing experience. The drinks were delicious, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was truly excellent. We had a beautiful view of the city, and when it got chilly in the evening, they immediately turned on the heaters, which made everything so comfortable. It was an unforgettable night, and I’m really grateful to the staff for making it so special. I highly recommend this place!

    I had a great dinner at Castaway. I had the ribeye with the roasted cauliflower and it was very delicious. My daughter had the salmon and she loved it also. The complimentary cornbread is so delicious also. We had a beautiful view from our table. Will definitely come back again soon.

    Our server just sucked. We couldn’t get his attention and took forever to put our order in! His attitude was poor.
