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

Server had too many tables to be able to efficiently do his job. The other server stood in the server station at the bar with her leg up and prwctically was sitting on the counter where the to go food supplies were. The host was not friendly. Asked for water, didn’t receive it. Would have been happy to pay for bottled but wasn’t offered. Received food before drinks came out. No check back after, would have purchased another drink if so. It took a while to get the check. 3 dirty tables next to us almost the entire time we dined. Lots of potential. Great vatmiaphere. Server was nice but too busy to be attentive. Food was ok, nothing I’d go back for. Disappointing overall.

My husband and I went on a Saturday afternoon. We are so glad we reserved a table as we saw many people turned away. The space has a Miami feel, with an eclectic mix of people. It has a view of many, cool skyscrapers. The service was prompt and friendly. We ordered 3 small plates. The sliders were the best. I enjoyed my mirror image cocktail. We will be back, with friends, next time.
