Great overall experience and wonderful meal! It was a special occasion so we asked for a couple of extra requests (private table, special drinks), and the staff could not have been more helpful.

We went here on a Saturday with 6 11yr old girls and 2 adults for a birthday dinner. The girls sat at a table by themselves and the adults were able to sit next to them at the bar. The waitress was so wonderful to the girls and they had a blast! The adults were able to have a conversation not related to a Taylor Swift and enjoy an awesome burrata appetizer and salmon bowl for dinner. The drinks were awesome, as well! The adults had the talk tiki to me and the girls all had special drinks as well. It was such a fun time with great food and atmosphere!!

Great spot! They have great beer, and wine and cocktails. My favorite beers are the whirlpool (a juicy IPA) and the night lite (crisp lager). We got the elote guacamole which was great. Service is very good.

Love going to the Skybokx to watch games. Great food and drink, a lot of TVs with great views. It's our go to place even though it is not close to home. Now, if they could just ensure the Boston teams win all the games we come to watch that would be great. lol
