“ This place was pricey but I have zero other complaints. The people were great, the view is awesome, the drinks and food were amazing. The atmosphere was relaxed and casual but also upscale, and I was able to sit and enjoy the people watching and not be bothered. My server came to check on me and recommended her favorites on the menu but then left me alone to read my book and enjoy my solitude. I had an amazing gin drink that I'm forgetting the name of but it had jawn in the title, the cauliflower app, which was to die for, and the scallops, which were delicious. I highly recommend this place, every seat is a winner, every dish really special. I can't wait to come back. ”
“ We had two omelettes that were well prepared. The serving is quite large. Omelette, home fries, croissant and a lovely edible garnish of grape tomatoes and radicchio. All of this was served on a warmed plate, enabling extended warmth for the bustling lobby eating area. Coffee was great. I drink it black so I cannot comment on fancy things people put in, but it appeared that they had all of that stuff. ”
“ Great ambience, great service and great food. We were very happy with all of our selections for drinks, starters, raw bar and salad. We came too hungry and couldn’t finish our entrees but ordering everything was absolutely worth it. We both got the braised short rib and it did not disappoint. The only thing I would say is that I was expecting to be up on a higher level (not the second floor) but that was my bad in not doing proper research :) the open “sky bar” has fun vibes regardless and I’ll absolutely be back again. ”
“ This place is lovely. Perfect for a date night, solo dinner, or friend catch-up. Great ambiance and excellent food. Our server, David, was incredibly attentive. The creamed spinach was A1! I forgot to take pics, but take my word for it. Highly recommended. Would definitely go back and sit on the patio. Parking is free in the garage after 5p, and the restaurant is inside the West and Main Hotel, second floor. Enjoy! ”
“ Bar is on the second floor of the Hilton and partially including an old Conshy fire station. Hilton did a great job of creating and amazing space, while honoring the integrity of the historic building. Food, drinks are creative and fun. ”
“ This review is for the holiday party for 65 guests we had here in December. Our company has had a holiday party at various restaurants for the past 10 years, and the feedback we received after this one was that “it was the best one yet”. I worked with the Event Manager, Terri, who was fantastic to work with. She carried out every detail and worked with me from start to finish (including being present during the entire event). Her team was wonderful. The food was delicious (that pasta bar!!). The music, decor, cocktails, champagne wall, etc - all of the details made the night extra special. Thank you for providing such a fun and flawless night! ”
