I came here with friends and the views did not disappoint—the setting immediately puts you in a good mood. We ordered the dish that’s been getting the best reviews: the chicken wings. They’re delicious—crispy, well-seasoned, and with a satisfying bite. We also tried the dawa, virgin mojito, and a Long Island cocktail. All of the drinks were excellent—clean, well-balanced, and refreshing. Service was genuinely great, with a big shout-out to Janet for her attentiveness and warmth. One small sore note: the host (the person with the plastic hair) wasn’t very friendly. It was a bummer and stood out against the otherwise welcoming vibe. Overall, I’d definitely come back. The views, the wings, and the solid service make this a reliable choice for a fun night out with friends. The food was okay, nothing too crazy. The steak was a bit bland but the chicken jerky was tasty. The prices are pocket friendly so you get what you pay for. Their signature cocktails are actually really good and we had a few. The service wasn't the best and they were really slow and snobby. I guess that Westy vibe of prioritizing white dudes still exists. The views are nice and the places looks really good but I guess they know this too so they don't really care much what you think. It's a really nice place to chill. I liked the ambience and will definitely go back on a weekday to see if the service will be the same. It's a 7/10 for me. It was my first time visiting this spot and I think it goes without saying, the view is a 10/10 (it's literally in the name of the restaurant). I had the Buddha Bowl (vegan), which was a pretty healthy meal... so naturally, I had to balance it out with 3 cocktails. I tried the Cloud Nine Aviation and the 270° Special Gin & Tonic. Out of the two, Cloud Nine was my favorite. I had to get it twice. It started to fill up around 7PM but overall, the service was great. I'd definitely go back to try more cocktails with that view. Can't imagine how beautiful the sunset must look on a clear day!

I loved the views of Westlands from the top, the jerk Chicken is a must try. The fried fish had some champagne infused sauce which made it boozy, not my thing but best to ask as many questions about the food you are ordering and taking time to read the description of the foods. Great place to meet up with friends.
