    Stopped in for drinks and appetizers. View of Empire State Building is awesome. Band playing a bit to loud for such a small space.

    Terrible seating. View not as promised. Server was rude and not responsive to us at all. It was very loud and we couldn’t hear each other even think. Seating was not conducive for disability. Seats either to low or odd high top stools. Very uncomfortable. As a result we cancelled a future reservation to avoid going back.

    Excellent, nice setting looking at an Empire State building. Oscar  was an outstanding bartender. The only complaint is that the kitchen closes at 9 p.m.. no snacks or bar food available between 9 PM and midnight.

    The attention was a little rude and they were pushing you to hurry and to leave the place ASAP

    Beautiful view and ambience. Very poor service. I am pregnant and ordered a non-alcoholic drink. When the waitress brought our drinks, she was not sure which was which. She verified with the bar and this was still wrong, so much to my dismay I had a portion of a tequila drink meant for another guest in our party.

    The place is great but this time they said they were out of their regular food. All the had was cheese and onion dip with corn chips. Looks like they went to the grocery store and pit it on a plate. And for this they charged $22.

    The service was just bad... you see they want you to consume and they are behind you all the time,clearing your table even if you have not finish. The air condition was to strong it was freezing and they did not take out the glass roof.... why ? Bad experience
