About this restaurant

Great for scenic views
Great for creative cocktails
Great for outdoor dining

The new Rooftop design is transformative like the island itself, with equal parts of nostalgia, delight, and a touch of temptation. It harbors a distinct sense of place through stately design touches that embolden the beautiful mix of history and culture. It celebrates the spirit of the past in a modern way, stepping gracefully into the future of this island town, and further anchoring it as a local staple. The new design allows added seating arrangements, a new counter bar equipped with TVs, and the ability to enclose part of the space off from the elements to be open year round & weather friendly. With a soulful connectivity to the hotels storied past, the Tremont House transports you to an era of nostalgia, delight, and temptation.

We made a reservation for our anniversary and were told when we got there that we couldn’t sit outside. Wine selection was not very good. The decor wasn’t what we expected either.

The bar had a wonderful and fun atmosphere and our bartenders were the best. Dean and Rebeka were amazing, always making sure our cups were full and very attentive to our needs, they made it fun to sit at the bar.

It was a rainy night so the outdoor rooftop area was closed; disappointing to not see the sights but of course a sensible and very understandable decision to keep everyone safe and comfortable. Keep that in mind when planning to visit on a bad weather day. The interior atmosphere was still cozy and classy and we enjoyed our table near the bar. The hostess was friendly and professional, and our server was attentive and as equally friendly with great recommendations. The bar staff made top-notch drinks with great attitudes, and the crab cake and tuna tar-tar served to us were as fresh as they were beautiful. Overall it was a great experience and we can’t wait to return on an evening with better weather.

I was really excited to go to the rooftop bar. I made my reservation about a month in advance. My husband and I were about 20 minutes early and asked if we could wait at the bar or in the lounge until our table was ready. No problem. I ordered a $18 mai tai and my husband ordered a $21 old fashioned. The drinks were made with cheap spirits and were not good. The hostess came back to the bar to let us know that the table we had reserved was still occupied and it didn't seem that they would be leaving soon. No worries, we will wait a bit longer, the hostess then informs us that she will only give us our table for 20 minutes max because another guest would be coming in and they should not have to wait beyond their rsvp time. She offered us a sofa in the corner to sit at. Telling her we didn't want to eat on a sofa, she let us know there was nothing she could do. We left at 9pm, on a Saturday, on a holiday weekend to go find dinner. I will never go back, and I'll tell anyone who will listen about how inhospitable the folks at the bar are.

No need to go back. The remodel is a bust. Hotter inside than out, no longer panoramic views, server was kind but inattentive, food was just ok, drinks were pretty but very weak and very expensive, it was SO much better before remodel. Tourists will keep it going.

The food tasted great, but portions were tiny compared with the price. Staff was excellent. I just thought for a $20 appetizer it should not leave me starving.

Smallest plate of seared Tuna I’ve ever seen. 3 thin slices of Tuna and very little cabbage for 20.00. Stay at the Tremont but eat somewhere else.

No chicken wings or fries for bar bites. Bites a little pricey for the portion size. The photos of the rooftop are not the actual photos. Great view and the hospitality was excellent from staff.
