    Pleasantly surprised by the quality of food. Everything we had was incredible. Loved that they offered smaller portions on the menu and a full variety of dishes. Seafood. Pork. Beef. Vegetarian. Service was a great, a little slow but it was a VERY busy night. Loved seeing the team effort with food being brought immediately to the tables (vs waiting on the server to bring it) and staff running drinks to tables outside their section. Will return. 5/5 stars.

    What a WOW view from one of the rotating dining rooms! We thoroughly enjoyed splurging for our anniversary dinner at Swizzle. The calamari appetizer was excellent, as was the wedge salad which they kindly split for us. And basket of warm bread - yum! My husband now lists their Tomahawk Pork Chop in his top ten - super tender, perfectly cooked. I had the scallops - also perfectly cooked with the grits, peas, and fried onions accompaniments - wonderful. Considering it was a super busy night at the restaurant, we felt very well taken care of by the wait staff. Also, if you aren't staying at the hotel or Ubering, use the restaurant valet for $10.00. A great deal for parking, and our car was waiting for us at the curb when we were done with dinner.

    What a cool place! They make their own hams and I’ve never had better. Get the charcuterie to start to sample some. Amazing server who was very knowledgeable and a cool ambiance.
