The food was pretty good and they have l a wide range of small plates and sides. They had a great selection of cocktails. On the pricier side, but you’re paying for the view. They were able to accommodate us when we asked for a window seat.

The portion sizes were literally the smallest I’ve ever seen at a restaurant. The mac and cheese should be a side portion instead of a main portion and it was $22. I was charged $8 for watered down ice coffee as you can see in the picture the coffee was almost clear. I don’t recommend getting sides as well because it’s a total rip off. The food itself wasn’t bad but just really not worth it. It’s the same pricing as city pricing so might as well go into the city and get better food and portions . Overall if the portions were bigger and the coffee was better I would’ve rated this place a 5 stars because the service was good but it’s such a shame.

Stunning views of NYC along with the meal. The charred cauliflower, margherita flatbread, cheese board, and tossed vegetable rice were good vegetarian options. Tastefully done interiors. Great spot for a walk by the river after the meal. Free street parking after 7pm, paid parking lot nearby too. Arrive early for a table of your choice.

Came here for a Happy Hour and enjoyed the views with $1 Oysters. The oysters were pretty good and we got some apps that were 3 for $30. The Brussels Sprouts and Potatoes Bravas were actually really good with their aioli sauce. The Calamari was crispy and good but I wish I tried another dish since it was basic.

The place has got really nice New York City skyline views. The ambiance at the restaurant was lovely. I went there for drink and ordered flat bread. The desserts looked really good so we ordered cream brûlée and it was delicious.

It’s a beautiful restaurant and the staff was great. The food was very good. We had a Mother’s Day prefix menu only , so there was not much to order and explore.

Pretty place, nice vibe. Service is SLOW!!! it took 20 minutes for sparkling water food was tasty but very small portions for a large price. I understand “small” plates, but any smaller it wouldn’t exist…1 or 2 bites for each of us (2 people)

I really can’t think of anything bad to say about this place. Stunning views, beautiful decor, friendly and professional staff, and good food and drinks. They have a great variety of options to choose from, and everything we ordered tasted really good.
