AC tempt. in bar area needs to be turned. The welcome desk outside the main entrance is much more comfortable temperature. So many people and doors opening to the deck area made the inside dining area warm

Great atmosphere but service was very very slow. Inventory for food & options also low. The marketing 100% did not match the experience.

There is no way to reserve specific tables. It is a very casual after work “cool” atmosphere with lots of fabulous chatting and having fun ! So many of the tables are low cocktail tables and it would be difficult to enjoy much of the food on the menu. Example : the flatbread was rich with cheese and sauce, the sausage exceptional. But it overflowed the wooden platter it was served on. At a cocktail table the food and cocktails for three people would have made it nearly impossible to enjoy the food. The drinks were exactly as described but due to the din my classic martini ordered in the rocks with two olives. It came “up” and empty. A mistake made due to the sound level. Over all, with the move to a high top, our experience was delightful.

The ambiance was great, the drinks were good. The food was not the best, but the environment made up for it. The roof top added a very nice touch to the evening. It was good night.
