    Great location and good food. Unfortunately, the coffee came cold and it took them 2 tries and at least 20 mins to get the desert right. They should have at least not charged for the desert.

    Beautiful location, decent food the help was constantly filling up our glasses with sparkling water watching us to the point of feeling harassed we had to request them to stop approaching our table allowing us to enjoy our dinner. We love to be served but it was excessive and annoying.

    They did a mistake and charged me twice the amount I paid for the dinner and now I’m waiting for them to give me a full refund back,(happy with the service and everything but charging double a client is a BIG MISTAKE)

    We met friends and enjoyed it very much. The Pink Paloma is refreshing and the Bloody Mary's were nicely garnished. We ordered the eggs benedict and the presentation was good- the Canadian Bacon was sliced too thin and thus overcooked. The eggs were perfectly poached. The view is great even on a cloudy day...

    All good. Portions were small but great tasting and helped me keep my diet. Service was pretty bad. Waiter Just in attentive. Had to ask to pls e an order, for our drinks from bartender a couple times. Ordered black tea and got green, ordered Reception was accommodating. I think they know they have a service issue. Owners were on the floor. So it should get better. Had to ask for water several times. Glasses were empty for 25 minutes at a clip. Traveled there to check it out. If it was closer to home would go again. Being so far away we have better options locally.
