My wife & I enjoy Vista 18 for the views , their creative menu with tasty meal selections. She had the Tuna this time around and I had the Lamb Chops. Both were excellent in favor and beautifully presented. We like the 7pm to 7.30pm seating as you have the joy of witnessing the Sunset and last night the very Red sky. We do struggle with the back ground music, as with almost all Restaurants it is a bit too loud and often not in alignment with the setting. Wondering why we need music at all when we are there to enjoy each other , the views and the environment.

Food was not hot (fish). Disconnect between kitchen and wait staff. Sweet potato chips appetizers weren't warm. Shaken out from a bag? Great view!! ...I blame management, not staff.

Service was mediocre, and we waited 30 mins for desserts.. and then my dessert wasn’t good at all. Green tea cheesecake, which was hardly a cheesecake… served on some dry waffle? Gross. Our server comped one of desserts because of the ridiculous time waited. Glad he did, because it disappointed big time. Our main meals were good, but waiter made strange small talk, service was slow and my dessert very a huge disappointment. Not sure I’ll revisit this restaurant again.

We went there for breakfast in early September and it was fantastic! The views were incredible, service was great, and the food was tasty. We ordered two of the Benedict’s (Artichoke and Spinach and the Surf and Turf). Both very tasty and huge portions. For a single Benny only $14 which is great value. Added sausage to that order. If you are looking for a nice cozy breakfast spot with a view I would recommend Vista 18.
