Good place for a few drinks. The only problem was I was there for a special occasion and asked the server to tell me when we reach a certain bill so I can pay it as a compliment to the guests and then everyone on the table can buy their drinks. Never happened, paid the whole bill far above the limit I asked the server to put and notify me.

Dear Kaloyan, We are truly sorry for the inconvenience you experienced. For events like this, we usually recommend coordinating in advance with our Sales Department, who can assist with arrangements such as setting a prepaid bill limit and managing payments accordingly. Unfortunately, due to system limitations, it is challenging for our service team to split or reopen bills on the spot once a table is active. For future visits, we kindly suggest letting us know of any special requests when making your reservation, so we can ensure everything is organized perfectly in advance, as we always aim to make such special events as smooth and memorable as possible. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the chance to welcome you again soon. Kind Regards, Miryana/Guest Relations Manager

Extremely disappointed with our experience. The host was very hostile and unwelcoming, our food order was incorrect and sent back - what made it worse was that we hadn’t finished our starter before the main came. Overall the food itself was excellent but a dis-taste with the poor service, pretentious atmosphere and lack of customer care - other than the chefs the staff all need customer training or go to another job!

Dear Emma, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations, and especially regret that you felt unwelcome during your visit. While we are pleased to know you enjoyed the food, we take your comments about the service very seriously. It is clear we fell short in several areas, and this is certainly not the standard we aim to deliver. Please rest assured that we are addressing your concerns with our team to ensure this does not happen again. We hope you might consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with the 5-star experience you deserve. Best regards, Miryana Ivanova Guest Relations Manager

Esperienza terribile in fatto di cibo e servizio, cibo scadente, servizio deludente, non ci è stata neanche data la carta delle bevande, i dolci alle 21..30 erano solo quattro, senza ovviamente la carta dei dolci, il cameriere scortese e parlava poco e male l’inglese, cibo al di sotto delle aspettative dell’ambiente : unica cosa decente, le tapas di pollo, e la vista della città.
Sense Rooftop BarResponded on May 7, 2025
Dear Marta Rolla, We are sorry your experience did not meet expectations. Please note that all staff are required to speak fluent English, and we apologize if there was any miscommunication. Regarding the dish you mentioned — the Organic Tagliatelle Aphrodite — the menu describes it as being served with squid, octopus, shrimps, fresh herbs, cream, cherry tomatoes, and capers. Unless a guest specifically requests modifications, we serve the dish exactly as listed. We are sorry it was not to your taste, but we can always accommodate changes when asked. Regarding dessert, options may be limited later in the evening due to demand. We are glad you enjoyed the chicken tapas and the view. Your feedback is appreciated and helps us improve. Kind regards, Miryana Ivanova Guest Relations Manager

The experience was good however the waiters were unkind and unprofessional,most of the drinks weren’t available and when we asked to pay separately they refused to let us do it.The view was lovely and enjoyable.
Sense Rooftop BarResponded on May 7, 2025
Dear Samuele, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the lovely view and had a generally good experience with us. We sincerely apologize for the service you received from our staff and the unavailability of certain drinks. This is not the standard we strive to uphold, and we will be addressing your concerns directly with our team to ensure improvement. Regarding the payment, our policy is to issue one bill per table. Separate payments can be arranged, but we kindly ask that guests inform us in advance so we can accommodate this smoothly. We understand how this may have caused inconvenience and appreciate your understanding. Kind regards, Miryana Ivanova Guest Relations Manager
