   It’s a nice place. The views and location are nice. The restaurant itself needs more and better staff. While dining I saw a waitress and the only hostess leave. The chef and bar tenders began seating people and they eventually turned people away. I’d recommend going early.

   Ambiance, food, waitresses was great. The train passing by was a bit distracting

   Even with a reservation, getting a seat and service was a Herculean feat! Drinks took 20 min and thank goodness we weren’t hungry because it was hard to get a server to even stop by. That said the atmosphere and cocktail menu was great. I will give it another go soon.

   The overall vibe I got from my visit here was that they were actively discouraging people from patronizing the restaurant. I arrived at 6pm. The bar was full but there was a ton of restaurant seating. I tried to get a table but was told they only take reservations. I was confused because there was so much open seating, that I went online and saw they had a ton of reservations open. Not sure why the hostess couldn’t have helped me make a reservation, but I did it anyway on my own. When I came back for my reservation, my waitress said something to the effect of “oh you figured out how to come back.” There was another employee there I saw looking toward our table shaking his head as if we shouldn’t have been able to make a reservation. It was all very strange. We ordered drinks that took so long to come out, we began to get skeptical of the food and just left to eat somewhere else. My gin martini was unbalanced and not cold enough to even finish drinking. I’ll try again maybe in a year or two when they finish working out whatever it is they have going on.

   Our experience was top notch. When we arrived, there was a table with a reservation sign on the table and our last name. Our waitress was phenomenal, a ball of positive energy. Drinks were amazing and food was delicious. We even had the opportunity to interact with the Chef and Executive Chef. We will be going back.

   I was allowed to make a reservation and the restaurant was closed. My Mother’s Day was ruined.

    The staff is so friendly and it's a nice spot to grab a drink after work. We went for a business meal and found the menu to be lacking with many items unavailable. Limited options for vegetarians to have a proper meal. The night took on a chill and the open air concept had us wishing for jackets. This would be more suitable for drinks and small bites. Don't go looking for a substantial meal.
