    The atmosphere was amazing. Service was great! Manager actually came over to ask us how everything was. My blackened mahi-mahi was a little over cooked but my wife really enjoyed her raviolis and crab something ! Manager made it up to me by offering a free dessert. Key lime pie was awesome! Oh yea the cocktails were good also! Will definitely go back!

    Food was delicious and the service was excellent. The only downside was a loud table close to us which did not detract from the over all experience just made us lean closer to each other. Locationgave us a different perspective of Lynchburg.

    The view was worth the drive. Upon arrival we enjoyed the free parking. The staff (both hotel and restaurant) were very kind and accommodating (they provided me with a vegetarian menu so make sure to ask for that). The food was delicious and came out quick, despite the nearly full restaurant. I absolutely loved the Caesar side salad and the baked Brie! We also enjoyed some cocktails, Cajun shrimp & crawfish etouffee, and spinach ravioli from the vegetarian menu. They also prepared us a special anniversary dessert dish with a happy anniversary wish. Overall, we were really happy with our visit and will be back again in the future.

    My wife and I came for our anniversary dinner and everything was really good. My only issue was not having somewhere to talk to my bride during our dinner. We would have loved that, but I get it I guess. All and all really we had a great meal (tried something new) and great atmosphere and service.

    We sat outside on the lovely rooftop patio. The food was excellent, but not as hot as it should have been. Our server was very slow getting our first course out and another big break between first course and dinner. The manager stopped by a couple of times to ask how everything was. I definitely recommend this place - service is not usually slow.

    Music genre kept changing and volume — and didn’t sometimes allow conversation at table when it was louder rock. Rest of experience was perfect and a great celebration of our son’s graduation.

    Friendly greeters and waitress! Promptly provided menus and asked for drink orders! Cosmos were great- we asked for a splash of cointreau to be added! Friend and I shared fried oysters with corn relish - one our favortites! Well prepared! The tuna burger was requested without bun, well prepared -way too many fries a little heavy on the pepper! Friend ordered Cobb salad with chicken and it was huge and good! Nice atmosphere, love open air circulating very comfortable!

    We went here for our anniversary. The best part of the dinner was the chocolate cake. My ravioli was very salty and my husband's burger was not very seasoned. The service was awful. We never received refills and had to wait about 5-10 minutes after getting our food to get silverware. We will probably not come back when there are other places to go that are better for the price you pay here.

    Skyline was an excellent place to take our 19 year old granddaughter for a special dinner! We sat on the patio enjoying the spring weather, and our waiter was right on time with menu's, our beverages and then our entrees. Our dinner choices were cooked to perfection and we enjoyed our time at Skyline! We'll be back!

    Overall, great vibe & location. We stayed at hotel so super convenient, open, airy, great views. Ordered salmon med rare. Came well done. HUGE piece of salmon. Was surprised at value, $25. The vodka sauce not a good pairing, IMHO. House salad was huge too. Excellent, blue cheese dressing. And fries. Server messed up dessert order, did t know until we got to room. A nice evening.

    Everything was lovely with our party of six who were celebrating my husband's birthday. The only problem we had was my husband's entry of "crispy" salmon. It was the only dish that disappointed. It was lukewarm, limpy (far from crispy), with little seasoning. He is not a picky eater, so when he is "disappointed" that means something. That being said, your staff, the appetizers of coconut shrimp and all the other dishes were great (or so our guests said). We would come again!
