    Service was excellent. Cocktails were super delicious. Ambiance was cozy. However the yurt which offers the full experience was tiny, so we were outside on a couch. There is a fire-pit and its nice but you are outside in the cold… which is just fine, I just wish we would have known that from the reservation.

    What an incredible experience 😊 Skylight exceeded my hopes, let alone my expectations. I love the casual, comfortable yet sophisticated environment, the perfect lighting, the extra high ceiling and cityscape through the tall windows, and the comfortable choice of seating. I also love the mix of comfy benches, comfy couches, and comfy chairs along with more traditional seating and a beautiful bar in the middle.However the best part was the food and service. The menu is exotic yet approachable, and the staff is wonderful. It's obvious that management is out to create a complete casual dining and lounging experience. This is not just a place we will go back to, it's a place we intend to become regulars at. I can't wait to enjoy a weekend evening with live music or a DJ.Thank you!

    Albert and Yunfei are excellent hosts. Greeting you by name getting to know and making world class drinks as they help discover your pallette. Dring and Theresa and Paulina were fantastic, clearing glasses, topping up your water, providing coat check and making the overall experience wonderful. The ambiance is perfect for the space, styled like the orient express with attention to detail and a warm feel that keeps your conversations intimate. Tasty and creative food offerings but the drinks remain the highlight. Will definitely be bringing more friends in the near future.
