Server stated no drink specials. Took over 20 minutes to get our two drinks. Server stated oven in kitchen was not working so couldn’t get three items. Drinks were good once they arrived. Food was ok, nothing special.

Good atmosphere grill was down so food could’ve been better. Service wasn’t very good server not very attentive. Drink prices fairly high for top shelf could’ve been advertised better

We were seated at a table with a nice prime spot view until some guy flashed cash and they kicked us off our table. Then service was pretty awful. Reservation was at 6. Ordered a bottle of wine and then we were moved. Couldn’t actually order food until 6:30, as we were ignored. Food was subpar. Rolls didn’t taste well made. Like something I could make from home without a lot of thought. Disappointing and was looking forward to this for a while. Lastly, it’s right next to the hotels pool where people can order from the pool. Cool if that’s the ambiance you’re looking for. Less of an upscale rooftop that I was looking for and what I think they advertise. Wont return.

We made a birthday reservation and after 40 minutes we weee asked do move to another spot because there was a party coming in. And then after 10 minutes there we were asked to move to another spot with stained seats because there was another party booked. I said you realize that we booked this and we’d moved twice and his a birthday. The waiter said well it happens
