The service has consistently been exceptional, and I particularly appreciate their impressive bourbon and whiskey selection. Over the years, I've visited for everything from informal business discussions to evenings spent with close friends. The intimate lighting, softly glowing candlelight, and thoughtfully curated ambiance create a warm and sophisticated atmosphere. Combined with a moderate noise level that allows for comfortable conversation, it's an ideal setting for both meaningful catch-ups and professional engagements.

Both of which were fantastic but OMG the ceviche was top tier, the coconut milk set it off the edger for me. The vibes were immaculate as well! Good music & views. Will definitely be back

Good crowd in attendance and the music was pretty good mostly reggae (new music though not older like Bob Marley which makes a difference).

The restaurant is part of the Thompson San Antonio hotel and it was modern and elegant throughout. The restaurant is situated on the 20th floor with beautiful views of the city. We sat outside and enjoyed the nightlife. Food and drinks: Great selection in both areas. The menu offers good variety of high quality foods. I opted for ora king salmon with side of asparagus and smoked labneh. The salmon cut was cooked to perfection with flaky meat and crispy skin. The seasoning was spot on. The za'atar chicken kebab dish was equally good. Again, spot on seasoning and succulent meat. The restaurant offers hand crafted signature cocktails as well as selection of wine. Pricing: $$$ - totally justified and worth it.

The atmosphere alone makes a strong first impression and definitely gives a luxury experience. That said, the food was just okay considering the price point and overall presentation of the restaurant. Nothing was bad, but nothing particularly stood out either. Unfortunately, the service was the disappointing part of the experience. It felt inattentive at times and didn't quite match the level of hospitality you would expect from such a beautiful venue. Overall, it's worth visiting for the atmosphere and scenery, but I do hope the food and service improve to fully match the setting. I'm giving a 4 only because of the location and ambiance otherwise it would be 3.5.
