We had to keep reminding the waitress to come serve our party. The feedback from the group was that the quality of the drinks was poor. Vibe was cool and I think with better service this could be a great spot.

Ive tried twice now and the food is truly mediocre. I tried the one of their salads that was old and had hardly any dressing. My kid order the burger with fries, fries where so bad my teen boys couldn’t eat them. Place is nice and I suspect they will survive due to the venue and view not the food.

Food and drinks were delicious but hilariously overpriced. $14 for a mocktail made with seltzer and syrup… And the $20 tacos only have 2 pieces of shrimp each, 6 shrimp total… The food also took quite a while and I had to wait even longer because the kitchen sent my dish out with a garnish I told them I’m allergic to and I had to send it back. The view was really pretty. I’m not saying I’d never go back but I wouldn’t go hungry because $50 for a snack that left me hungry felt like a bit much.

Took nearly 50 minutes to receive our drink after being seated. We were attending for my wife's birthday and the staff seemed mostly unaware. We wanted to grab a few drinks and then entrees but decided to leave after we received drinks and apps because the service was so slow. Seemed like the waitstaff attending to our table was serving 12 other tables. This was on Sunday before memorial day so perhaps staffing was just a challenge.

My drink was made incorrectly (I was specific, it’s a simple drink, anyway) my husbands drink was watered down - Old Fashioned- it was so plain to see- we asked for our tuna app and truffle fries to come first- tuna did, fries were the very last served- I requested my dressing to be on the side, didn’t happen- everything took a while to get- server was not “nice” till it came to closing tab- I should not have left the tip I did.
