This was the first time my wife & I had ever been to The Reunion Tower & Crown Block. This was a reservation for my wife’s birthday & it was perfect ! We got a window seat & my wife was given a birthday card signed by all the staff. It was a nice personal touch. Our waiter was very helpful & polite. Our steaks were cooked perfectly & my lobster tail was delicious! We got to watch the sun set & then enjoyed the view of Dallas from almost 500 feet above. We were both VERY satisfied!
