We had such a wonderful experience here! The service was absolutely amazing—our server was super sweet, attentive, and helpful. She recommended the perfect drinks and desserts, which we loved. Since we were celebrating our anniversary, the restaurant went above and beyond by surprising us with complimentary champagne, which made the evening even more special. Everything from the atmosphere to the hospitality was outstanding. Highly recommend! My friend and I came to Toronto for a girls weekend! We found this restaurant by searching places close to us that had a rooftop view! We tried to make a reservation, but they did not accept them on the same day. So we took a chance to show up and get first come first serve seating. When we arrived, at 6:30, we were seated right away. The restaurant filled up very fast after that time. The service was incredible! Our server, Tamara, was exceptionally kind and shared many things about the menu! The food was beyond delicious! Everything was better than we expected! And the views! The best rooftop views of the city! The atmosphere was soft and warm, light and airy! There was nothing I could find that didn’t succeed or expectations! Dinner at this location was the highlight of our trip! I would definitely return and highly recommend that you include this location for your favorite meal in Toronto! We had a wonderful experience here. The staff were very helpful but not too pushy. Sometimes, you'll need to reach out to any staff to get a message to your actual server, but the message will travel quickly, and you'll get what you wished for in a timely manner. The water tumblers are plastic and one of ours still had a lipstick stain on it and had to be returned but that wasn't enough to ruin our time there. The hotel has their infinity pool located in/around the restaurant so it can be strange to see hotel patrons lounging in the pool but it may be more awkward for the pool goers. The food was very good and was not abnoxiously priced given its location. We enjoyed our simple meal but didn't order anything too heavy . Maybe next time. You also couldn't ask for a better view. Especially if you're able to get a seat on the patio on a nice sunny day. The only downside seemed to be that the washrooms were located on a different floor of the hotel. Otherwise, it's enjoyable and we'll be back.

Oh my! I went there to celebrate our 5th anniversary, and we loved every second of it! The staff is friendly, especially Tamara, who is a great person and treated us very well. The food is INCREDIBLE! It's definitely on my list of favorite restaurants in Toronto!

This is one of those places that presents itself as a high-end venue but unfortunately doesn’t live up to the expectations. I’ve been there twice, and both times the impression was quite disappointing. The atmosphere felt more like a beach moved to the upper floor. The couches were dirty, some even torn — that’s why I immediately took off one star. The interior looked messy, and honestly, it didn’t feel comfortable to touch anything. We only ordered ice cream — I just hope it was stored properly. Overall, this place is worth visiting only for the nice view of the city. Would I come back again? Maybe, but only to enjoy the view of Toronto. Pros: nice view, decent bar staff. Cons: untidy interior, unfriendly hostesses, dirty couches, and restrooms located on another floor.
