    This is not really what we were expecting. You’re literally looking at the back side of old buildings and the Empire State Building. This bar is really dated and needs to be updated.

    We enjoyed our drinks and the view was great but the drinks were overpriced and the service was terrible.

    View was nice and there was live music. However, service was underwhelming, which is disappointing for a Marriott establishment.

    The entertainer was fantastic! The music was great and Greginald Spencer was incredible. You should have more of these.

    The music was too loud. We asked for it to be turned down, which they did, but then turned it up again within minutes. Our waitress, who was lovely, had to keep bringing us out substitutions for our food saying what she saw in the kitchen did not look fresh. This happened several times. In the end we wound up eating things we did not want or particularly enjoy. Sadly, we would not go back.

    Stopped in for drinks and appetizers. View of Empire State Building is awesome. Band playing a bit to loud for such a small space.

    Terrible seating. View not as promised. Server was rude and not responsive to us at all. It was very loud and we couldn’t hear each other even think. Seating was not conducive for disability. Seats either to low or odd high top stools. Very uncomfortable. As a result we cancelled a future reservation to avoid going back.

    Excellent, nice setting looking at an Empire State building. Oscar  was an outstanding bartender. The only complaint is that the kitchen closes at 9 p.m.. no snacks or bar food available between 9 PM and midnight.
