Great place with awesome views of the city. Very modern and a great place to hang out and lounge around. Outdoor area was impressive as well, just too cold for January. The most impressive thing though is the staff. Everyone was extremely friendly, helpful and professional. Definitely recommend this place.

Beautiful view of the nicely painted Frontier planes. Food was good, but took awhile to get it. Waitress did not come back to check on me, but I was able to pay on the app and leave.
