    We loved our glasses of Raventos (only place in Florida we found that carried), the fantastic view, great service and surprisingly great food. Some might think it’s expensive but always hard to judge value when you’re on top of the world. Also, menu is great but small so visit is best for apps or trying lots of stuff. Pomme Pave paired with sparkling wine was a fantastic course (got two!). Don’t miss the sunset if you’re visiting!

    The views are incredible and a perfect sunset spot. It is beautiful to see the sunset and then the lights of the city come up. Make a reservation for sure to get a great table.

    As usual we make any place epic…the sunset vibes set the mood, although it took time to get our drinks it was fine. Sophia was cute and hooked up a birthday card and cake for my sister visiting from Hawaii. She loves rooftops so Beacon was definitely the spot. Mahalo Ke Akua for the memories.

    The promotion for the spill the tea event was a bit misleading. Nowhere did it state it was a buffet and that you make your own tea. However, that’s what it ended up being - which is fine but not worth the $65. I’ve done traditional high tea as well as tea events with a twist, but this experience was very underwhelming.
