    What an absolutely beautiful rooftop! There are options for both inside and outside seating - and given the overall atmosphere of both spaces, it’s really hard to choose between which one to sit! Otherwise, I think it was important to note that the noise level wasn’t at all obnoxious or too imposing on conversations, but sat at a perfect median given the otherwise lively energy of a SoHo-Manhattan rooftop. I can’t praise the ‘vibes’ enough in this regard. Our server, Jasmine (pardon any misspelling!) was a delight and delivered great presence at the table. One is tempted to feel lost and forgotten in such a bustling environment, but Jasmine never made us feel this way. Lastly, the food and drinks were fantastic: the Kiwi Swizzle and Strawberry Mai Tai are a must have; the chicken sandwich was an absolute dream with hearty tomatoes and a beautiful golden-brown breading, not otherwise forgetting the guacamole and chips and hamachi crudo which were stars in their own right.
