  Great views. Terrible service. Took us about 30 minutes to get a servers attention. Our food arrived before our wine. The quickest thing that arrived was our bill, which was promptly served to us as soon as our bottle was finished. Oh and *do not* sit outside facing the view - you’ll basically be surrounded by people taking pictures with their flash for the entire night - not a pleasant experience.

  I was here recently with friends and the experience was fantastic. One of the best views of Manhattan that I’ve ever seen. Indoor and outdoor accessibility. Great service! Our waitress was very nice and made great suggestions. The food is mostly light bites, but wow! They are incredible. The Tuna Tartare, in particular is inspired. The cocktails are also very good. Some people think the best rooftop bars are in Manhattan, but you don’t get quite the same quality views. I would try to get here before one of Brooklyn’s best kept secrets gets out.

  Great place. I don't know about the food but the drinks are good and not that pricey considering the place. The view on the Manhattan skyline might the best one you can get from any rooftop in the city. Be prepared to queue a little downstairs. Places is mainly frequented by locals but starts to become touristy.

  The best place to go for a complete view of the city. Beautiful interior. Lots of space and seating. You can make a reservation for a seat on open table - would definitely recommend doing so even if you aren’t planning on eating because it’s the only way to skip the line. We waited an hour to get in around 4:30 PM.. but it was well worth the wait.

  We reserved a table for around sunset and were very fortunate to be given a window table. The views looking back to Manhattan were exceptional. The drinks menu is vast and not as expensive as some rooftop bars. You can get a good IPA for $8! The staff are friendly and attentive. We ended up staying for a few cocktails and saw how Manhattan changed as the sun set. It is quite busy as you have walk-ins for the bar but we enjoyed the atmosphere. You just have to be patient for your picture moment.
