I loved the atmosphere and decoration here – fresh, bright, spacious and super clean. The server was friendly and helped me decide which drink was right for me. I was asking for something with light alcohol taste, a little bit bubbly and sweet and sour. She recommended Sunset Spritz and I immediately fell in love with it in the first sip 😡 ; not to mention that the color of the drink was really beautiful. Highly recommended this rooftop bar!

This is the second time I have eaten here. The menu is good for the bar. I got the smash burger with fries. The view of downtown Asheville is great, and one of the reasons I go. I was by myself, and found the atmosphere to be as good for a single person as it is for a group. Even if you can’t get a seat outside the view from the inside is just as nice. I will be back.

I don’t even know where to begin with the review of this dumpster fire of an establishment. I don’t leave bad reviews of places (don’t want to be grouped in with the Karens) but the culmination of events that unfolded Saturday evening warrant a review and warning to future guests. I’ll keep it as short as I can.

Our server was fantastic. Best service I’ve had in Asheville for years. Joey was fantastic and I’m so grateful, I was beginning to be totally disenchanted with all of Asheville food service.

I recently visited Observatory Bar and had an incredibly disappointing experience with Bartender Mike. I feel compelled to share my dissatisfaction to warn others who might be considering visiting this establishment.

The male bar tender was so rude on Friday evening, august 11th. He was beyond argumentative and confrontational. I was stunned by his reaction and forward rudeness. Gorgeous view, just stinks the service was beyond lousy.

Stumbled upon this gem while exploring downtown Asheville. We accidentally ended up in the lobby of a nice hotel and someone told us there was a roof top bar up on the 6th floor open to the public, so we went! we were so glad we did. The bartender found out we were on our honeymoon so sent us over some complimentary champagne on the house which was so cool. We chatted with our server (who was awesome) about Asheville and the local beers available. He was really cool and awesome to talk to. It was a beautiful view up there. Can’t wait to go back next time we go down to Asheville!

We came for cocktails and were sorely disappointed. They charged $12 for a Negroni pour half full in a tiny Martini glass. The gin and tonic came in a 3 oz highball glass poured 3/4 full with no lime. They do not know what they are doing and charging way too much for it.
