    We ordered the seafood linguini and it was delicious. The seafood was cooked to perfection and the linguini sauce was creamy and tangy. We had martini’s and they were perfect! It was a delightful evening.

    Great view. Check in smooth. Went right to our table. Server came over. Took our order. Drinks taste great. Pricey tho. Food came out timely. Needed some seasoning tho. Fresh tho. Pricey also. Also automatic 20% gratuity fyi.. Overall it's kool. Great for views. Food ok and drinks ok. Too Pricey imo. Priced well with market rates but still aggressive. 36 bux for a grilled chicken sandwich? Smh. Not bad overall. Nothing to bragg about.

    The vibe and view were excellent. Loved the nod to cherry blossoms in the decor. A perfect spot to take an out of town guest. Pricey. But the short ribs were amazing. Overall, a great time.

    Amazing view. Windows down and breeze blowing. But food is way over priced for the quality you get. Drinks are 25-30$. So you are paying for the view. Staff was great.

    The food was good. I ordered lamb chop lollipops, and it was overdone. My beet salad was extremely good. The dessert was delicious. I had to order my own drinks from the bar. Waitress never asked if we wanted any drinks other than offering us water. The view was incredible and beautiful, so that saved the whole experience
