   Absolutely terrible experience. My friends and I had reservations and were initially seated in a VIP section without being informed it was bottle service only. We didn’t plan to get bottles, but no one clarified that until later when someone rudely told us we had to move. Fine, we were okay with relocating — they sat us outside, and we ordered food. Not even 30 minutes passed before the same woman came back and demanded we leave the table because another party was coming. It felt aggressive and unnecessary, especially since other tables were seated much longer than we were. It honestly made us question if there were deeper issues at play, like discrimination. To make things worse, while trying to gather our other friends who were in the bathroom, another staff member approached asking if we paid — making it feel like we were trying to dine and dash, when we were literally pushed out of our seats. The staff was disorganized, rude, and the overall energy was chaotic and uncomfortable. The food? Mid. The drinks? Weak. The DJ? Not even worth mentioning. For the poor service and constant shuffling, the least they could’ve done was comp part of our bill, but nope — full price for one of the worst nights out. Never again.

   I purchased a Pulsd and after being seated the waitress said that the restaurant is no longer accepting the vouchers and that the vendor had to refund me the voucher price.

   The bar has a very nice view. That's it. The music was too loud, the food was average, and all drinks came in hard plastic glasses. Not worth the money. I was disappointed as the place looks nice but the quality of everything felt 'cheap' while everything was overpriced. The bill was not cheap at all and we were charged a 3% fee for paying with card. I will not come back!

   Well, we got our reservation few weeks in advance before our anniversary trip to New York, got email confirming that we were going and they were ready to ready us, only to get there a finding out an hour before our reservation that they were closed that day. And we only found out because we checked their instagram profile, they didn't even tell us anything.

    I made a reservation WEEKS before. There is a link on the Skybar website which takes you to open table . My reservation was for 3 pm. the restaurant was CLOSED. Tried calling NO answer. No voice mail either. Website says they open at 5 pm???? Never saw that until we were standing outside the place and it wasn't open. Why in the world can you make a reservation at a time that the place is closed ????????
