    Too much black pepper in the Black Pepper Glazed Cauliflower The burger was good, but one can't really mess up a burger. The fries were too oily, and it tasted like the oil needed to be changed. I'm not much of a sauce guy with fries, but I couldn't eat the fries without sauce. The view is stunning but not enough for a proper meal Cocktails are good though.
