    Had the valentine prix fixe menu - was excellent and the wine pairings were well matched. The salad starter had pink lettuce, the scallops had pomegrantes in the sauce, and the black forest cake was heart shaped with cherries, emphasizing the Valentine theme. The noise level was reasonable - could talk and hear without raising our voices but we could hear other tables.

    A Perfect Valentine’s Dinner with an Unforgettable View! My Valentine’s Day at Sun Dial Restaurant was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and breathtaking panoramic views of the city. The atmosphere was elegant yet cozy—perfect for a romantic evening. The food was absolutely exquisite. Every dish was crafted with precision, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. From the appetizers to the main course and dessert, everything was flawless. The wine selection was also top-notch, pairing perfectly with our meal. What truly made the night special was the ambiance—soft lighting, a gentle rotation that gave us different views of the skyline, and impeccable service that made us feel like VIPs. It was an experience we’ll never forget. If you’re looking for a romantic dining experience, especially for a special occasion like Valentine’s Day, Sun Dial is the place to be.

    The spaghetti and meatballs were absolutely delicious, full of flavor and perfectly prepared. The halibut was good, though it was slightly overcooked. The highlight of the experience was the waitress—her professionalism and training were evident in every interaction, making the meal even more enjoyable.

    The staff at 9 Mile Station was impeccable. Everyone there jumped in for assistance whether it was for good, direction, or even taking photos for guests in such a beautiful setting. Our server in particular was Maddox and he never missed a beat. His customer service will make me a repeat customer. We were celebrating my wife’s birthday, unbeknownst to our server, but he still made it an amazing experience!! Thank you 9 Mile Station!
