I understand that a grown woman shouts you off the terrace to a certain extent, when she already abuses her “authority” to be hostile. And a DJ who, in addition to being uncharismatic (not to say unfriendly), is offended because you politely request a song, shows that you are in the wrong place.

I’m not sure why the rooftop area closes so early at midnight when the venue itself remains open until 2 a.m. The security guard was quite unpleasant—she was shouting at people to go inside, which created a lot of confusion. Instead of simply informing us that the rooftop was closing, she was just yelling, which felt very unprofessional and was a major letdown. As a result, many people left immediately after that incident. The DJ was just starting to warm up, and the whole experience was disappointing, especially since everyone was cramped inside.

We had the pleasure of sitting at the charming swingset they offer. Our main reason for visiting was to enjoy the stunning views and have a nice drink. I couldn't resist trying their marinated Brussel sprouts, and I'm glad I did—they were delicious! The staff was incredibly friendly, always smiling, and I loved their adorable little outfits.

They popped up as one of the best places to see the city as a Rooftop bar and advertised being open later. Apparently every rooftop closes by 11 12pm around here. It was 11:15 pm when I arrived there. Bartenders were good. Got a Marg for 22$ which I was fine with if I can sit out and look at the city. Walked out one patio door about 10 seconds later a burly bouncer ish dude abruptly appears says “Bud Patios closed” in an intimidating manner and ushers me back inside. I walked 20 minutes only to be denied what I wanted to enjoy and this place advertised. Bottom line go somewhere else I promise you the hassle isn’t worth it. Cerise if you read this hire more friendly staff and CLEARLY advertise when your “outdoor patio” closes. Also hire better DJs more like Avicii and less like the trunk boom box in the back of that annoying Subaru behind you at a traffic light. You’re welcome. Ohio Guy

I had to ask for a menu and NOBODY came to take my order at all. Therefore, I left and was not wasting anymore time. If you are interested in going to a rooftop I don’t recommend this one.
