    Fantastic view, as always. Great place to bring out of towers, and the food was excellent. One small inconvenience with a cup of cold coffee, bit it was replaced quickly once we caught the servers eye.

    I think the food was good but a bit over priced. Had nice view of the city. Other then that I give it 3 out of 5.

    We went late afternoon for an early dinner on a Monday and it was perfect. But the layout of this place allows for relative peaceful dining experience regardless. The view alone is worth it but the food and service matches the experience.

    Creative and delicious! The charcuterie is joyful, the sesame tuna outstanding and a peach bourbon crème brûlée with a very surprising and playful garnish of cotton candy was super fun. And addictive. Thanks for a great evening!

    Yes, the Sesame Tuna is an all-around fan + staff favourite - great choice! Thank you so much for taking the time to review your experience with us - we hope to see you back again soon! We'll be changing up our seasonal creations next month... you'll have to try the new Halibut dish!

    Everything at Vista 18 was very good, and, of course, the view amazing. The food (brunch) was disappointing - not up to the same standard.
    Vista 18 Restaurant + LoungeResponded 4 days ago
    Hi Diana, Thank you for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the view and everything else during your visit. However, we’re sorry to hear that the brunch didn’t meet your expectations. We take pride in delivering high-quality food and will certainly review the brunch menu to ensure it aligns with the same standards you’ve come to expect from us. We’re excited to let you know that we’ll be revamping our menu for the summer soon, and we’d love for you to return and experience the new offerings! Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to impress you on your next visit. Warm regards, Vista18 Management
