    Need to pay attention on all services from receptionist all the way thru the food servers. Although the view is nice but when the services not supported it will reduce the points.

    We were not seated until 45 minutes after our reservation. Front of house staff was uncommunicative (only info given each time we’d check in was “your table will be ready soon”) and no acknowledgement of what an inconvenience they were causing. When finally seated there was a leak in the roof dripping water onto 2 parts of our table so we had to move. Our server was fantastic and provided great service but overall horrible experience given we were late for the rest of our planned obligations for the day and no acknowledgement or apology from staff. Definitely won’t be back.

    Seating was less than ideal. Certain seats are 6 inches away from the diners next to you, gets a little awkward. For the amount of money you are paying I feel it should be better.
