    My friends and I celebrated my birthday at Volare Rooftop and overall had a great time. The ambiance was beautiful — we especially loved the sunset and the views, which made for a perfect backdrop. We were seated on the West rooftop, which was quiet and relaxing. However, it would’ve been helpful to know ahead of time that the DJ is typically on the East side. Once we found out, we wished we had been given the option to choose our seating based on the vibe we wanted. The drinks were decent and priced as expected for a rooftop setting. The service was great overall — most of the staff were helpful and accommodating. That said, my first interaction with the hostess felt a bit off. When I arrived, she put her finger up and mouthed “hold on” while she and two other staff members were discussing something unrelated to greeting guests. It came off as a bit dismissive. Food-wise, everything I tried was tasty. I ordered the sweet potato fries and mushroom crostini and had one drink — my total came out to $50. What caught me off guard was an added "service" charge. When we asked about it, we were told it was due to having a large party. I went ahead and still tipped my server 20%, not knowing if the charge was meant to cover gratuity or just a fee for splitting bills among groups. All in all, it was a lovely evening and I’d consider returning — but a little more transparency on seating options and service fees would’ve made it even better.

    Bartenders need to learn to make drinks that are ordered. When they do, the drinks are amazing.

    My husband and I stopped by for drinks at the new rooftop bar and were thoroughly unimpressed. The views were nice, but the drinks were pitiful. My husband's Old Fashion was sickly sweet and the Lavender Martini I ordered (one of their "Signature" cocktails) was delivered with lemon juice that had gone bad. They did replace my drink, but the Cosmo I ordered was a sickly, opaque orange/pink color and did not taste good. Apparently, the servers behind the bar (I won't call them bartenders because they don't deserve that title) don't bother to taste anything to ensure quality. We were very disappointed and will not be going back.

    The space and view are BEAUTIFUL, but the experience doesn’t really match. Hoping to go back and have a better experience when it’s been open a little longer. I ordered the Bananas Foster Old Fashioned, which tasted great but was delivered without the banana garnish - was told they didn’t have bananas. Tried to order the watermelon appetizer and was told they did not have watermelon. The wings were fatty/slimy, not crispy. The charcuterie board did not have all of the components listed on the menu. The servers seemed annoyed. Never saw a manager. I really hope some of these issues get resolved because I would love to spend more time in the gorgeous space.

    An incredible view; modern and slick ambience; excellent service and food! We chose Volare for the view of the mountains and found that there is seating for the sunset as well. Can't wait for warmer weather to sit outside on the deck. The service was excellent with a couple of staff helping figure out gluten free options. We had the bacon wrapped dates, flatbread pizza, tomato bisque, and charcuterie board and everything was outstanding. The drinks were pretty and delicious - we had the lavender mojito, desert oasis (little spicy fun), and prickly pear margarita. Will definitely be back!

    Amazing experience. Beautiful views, delicious cocktails, and the fires kept us toasty after the sun set. Xavier made sure our drinks stayed full and accommodated all of our requests.

    Never had a chance to order real food. Our waitress was horrible. She only gave us 1 menu and disappeared for a long time. We order a charcuterie board and it never showed up. She appeared to be drunk, or at least smelled like alcohol. It was so bad we had to get up and leave after 30 minutes of waiting for a simple charcuterie board.
