Great choice for drinks and views, snack size food portions to pair with cold drinks. Two friends and I came here this evening for a belated birthday celebration for myself. Overall we had a great experience! I'll break this down in to a few categories. Parking: Parking wasn't great but we found a lot across the street that was about $3.50/hour using the ParkMobile app. Establishment: When you walk inside you can immediately tell it's a higher end hotel and the ambiance from the lobby restaurant was nice. Was immediately greeted and directed by a front desk staff member. The rooftop itself has a couple TVs, great music, pool, hot tub, bar and plenty of seating. I was impressed with the overall cleanliness, amenities and decor. Drinks: Beer was cold and my Malibu Coke was perfectly mixed. $8 for a tap beer and $10 for the Malibu coke. Food: Short rib sliders were delicious but lacked a side dish. For $18 3 little sliders left me hungry for more but my taste buds very happy. Carne Asada flatbread was good but was also a fairly small portion for $16. The food was served in to go containers which I found odd but I'm sure there's a good reason behind it I'm unaware of. Service: We had a main server but also another gal who kept checking on us. They were persistent and made sure we always had something to drink and water to pair with our alcohol. There was an error in the computer where our food wasn't sent to the kitchen right away but she was very clear about the mistake and because she made us aware and apologized I won't dock stars for the longer wait. Amenities: There are misters, umbrellas and shaded areas to help with the heat along with a pool. The bathrooms were clean. View: This was by far the best part. A panoramic view of downtown Tempe during sunset is absolutely stunning. There's plenty of places for great Instagram photos or Snapchat stories to share with friends. Overall I give Skysill a 4/5 because of the good view, decent food, good amenities and the unique vibe you get when hanging out there. Thanks for a good night I'll be back! read more

Terrible service. Put the wrong order in. The $18 "smoked" turkey sandwich is packaged turkey from the grocery store on over cooked sourdough that cuts your gums. The Buffalo chicken pizza was ice cold. Epitome of hotel food. The views and ambiance are the best part about it. The pool is right there which is kind of weird, you don't need a key card to enter. Place needs a lot of work, go for a drink or two, but stay far away from the food. read more

The hospitality was amazing. We'd like to send a special thank you to Alex for making sure to bring us blankets when we were chilly, while watching the NBA All Star Game on their big screen projector. It was such a great gesture! Thank you to the team for having us this weekend! read more

If you're looking for a relaxing bar to have a drink with amazing views, then this is the place. 360 views of Tempe that extends out for miles. If you're coming for sunset, get there an hour early as it gets pretty busy. read more

Food was very good, drinks are like everywhere, expensive but decent. Awesome views of the sunset and city though. You usually expect pretty slow service at these types of bars but service was pretty swift actually so a nice surprise read more

Let's talk about how beautiful the sunset is from this point of view. Our waitress Alyssa was handling the whole floor on her own & did a fantastic job at it despite them being short staffed! Love her energy & hospitality !! read more

This venue is excellent, great views, clean, nice pool and hot tub, all is good... except they desperately need heat lamps in the winter. Why they don't have them for their patrons is quite the mystery. We could only stay a few minutes after the sun set due to being too cold. And the bartenders are freezing. The two nights I was there I saw them bundled up and one lady was even wearing big gloves, another said she has to wear a big parka on some nights. So yeah, heat lamps in the winter are a must! Guarantee they do more business if they add them. Other than that, the place is great! read more

If you want your food or drinks in a reasonable time, this place is not for you. Probably the worst service I've gotten anywhere. Came to this place for an early dinner with high hopes. We tried to grab the attention of two workers who kept telling us to wait for the bartender to take our order. Waited 30 minutes for the bartender. She shows up and ignores us the whole time... serves other people before us. There was only 2 other couples there, we were the first arrived but last served. She didn't even take our order, someone else did. Everyone was just standing around talking while we went through this for hours. We got a menu and waited another 40 minutes before we got our order. Waited again for our food. After eating we had to ask 3 times for our check. The food was good, but not for the price and service. The view was pretty, but definitely not worth it. read more

Unbelievable. Food was decent but not the best for the price. I nearly spent $200 and not once did I have a server and when I asked for service.. all they brought me was limes.. no one checked on us, which was rude considering the amount of orders. My table was over $400+... The only good service I had was from the hired DJ. Thanks but I won't be back. I gave it two stars for the views and the DJ read more

8 of us purchased tickets & were ALL highly disappointed!!! completely overpriced! No food, no promised drinks/treats. Room was tiny & not a real rooftop, was indoors. read more

I celebrated my birthday with my husband here and everything was wonderful! The view, weather, servers, hostess, bartender and the food were fantastic! We had the Jalapeño hummus, caprese salad, vegetable lasagne, and the branzino. The chef did a great job! Thank you all for a wonderful time, I felt very special. read more

Truly one of the worst bar experiences I've ever had.. went here from social media recs. Def all hype on instagram and TikTok. When you get up to the rooftop it's also the pool so you either need to use your key to open the gate or wait for someone to let you in. We ordered our first round of drinks, the Tempe Margarita - 4/10 and then ordered our food. I wanted another round of drinks and my husband wanted just a basic soda. Waited forever for the bartenders to even come our way and when they did blatantly ignored us. We finally got our food which was freezing cold and ridiculously spicy. I ate because I was starving and was hoping the bartender would at least acknowledge us following the delivery of our food. Still nothing - after my husband had to get his attention he rolled his eyes and laughed. I ended up with a flat Diet Coke and again no water that I asked several times for. The couple next to us was ordering two drinks at a time since they also figured they wouldn't be able to get his attention. Skip this place, overpriced, over hyped, and over all bad attitude. We had to go to another hotel bar down the way if we wanted drinks which is super disappointing. read more

Unfortunately every review or comment on this roof top bar within the past 4-12 months is spot on. The bar is slow, the food service is slow, I am sitting here waiting for Hummus plate and it's been 1 hour and there are a total of 10 customers. Not one offer to take it off the tab, just seems like business as usually for most these servers. This place needs training as there are over 15 employees behind the bar and walking around. Obviously the owner or ownership company has to read these reviews and should make some serious changes. Now we are at 1 hour and 5 minutes with no food after ordering a starter. read more

This review is for Skysill Chalet at The Westin Tempe. Food: mediocre. Service: the staff tried hard but were set up to fail. Ambiance: loud, not at all private, seating is not overlooking the city, the crackling fireplace is a station on a television. Cost: ridicules. In my opinion management to trying to make extra bucks with a storage room. read more

Bartender grabbed and served my drink by holding it where I'm supposed to drink out of. YIKES. Spinach artichoke dip was served like soup at a renaissance festival. It was barely warm. Full of 20 something fake influencers taking pictures from the view. How is this part of a Westin? Will not return. read more

Great bar but really only open to hotel guests. Drinks and food were wonderful! Beautiful views of the skyline and sunset.

The first thing that caught my attention in wanting to come here is the fact that they're currently the highest rooftop bar in the valley. With 360 views, you're definitely getting eye candy of the city and surrounding mountains. Views are great from up here, there's no denying that. However I gave this place 3 stars because of the service. When you reach the 18TH floor, there's a sign that says you have to wait until a host greets you. I waited a long time until finally a hotel guest badged me in to get access to the bar area. It was also my understanding that they were having a private event the same day I showed up. The signs at the lobby said rooftop will close at 6:30pm... I showed up around 5pm and had plenty of time of drink. One of the bartenders told me there wouldn't be an issue as long as I closed my tab before 6:30pm... at approximately 6pm one of the staff members comes up and asks me to leave, right after I ordered my drink. At this point I hate chugging my drink, especially after paying $15 for it. I told the person that I thought I'm still good until 6:30pm... the guy said no and unfortunately I have to hurry up and exit. I listened and went to close my tab, same guy comes up and asks again to leave not realizing that I'm waiting for my credit card. He apologized but I still felt like they didn't honor their word. I didn't get to enjoy my last cocktail so that was a bummer. I could tell every staff member was overwhelmed with the private event that had going on. Prior to getting kicked out, I felt like one of the bartenders didn't really know how to make a drink. He looked pretty confused and for what I paid for, I expected better quality drinks. Cool bar with the potential of being the best bar in the city if they improve: - service - high quality handcrafted cocktails - better communication read more

Magical! I have wanted to check out Skysill since it opened in August. Located on the 18th floor of the Westin in Tempe, this has to be one of the best bars in Arizona. The views are incredible. And yes, still come even if you've missed sunset. Sports are played on TV, drinks are expertly crafted, the employees are incredible (especially Andrew!), and the other guests are so cool. What a gem! Pro tip: eat in the restaurant in the lobby and save Skysill for drinks! read more

Yesterday I had a reservation at 7:15pm and when I arrived there was no staff around. I finally managed to enter the eating area and sat myself down at a random table because there was no clear indication on where to go. I waited for someone to offer me a menu or even acknowledge my existence but no one did. I sat there for about 2 hours. I eventually left because I got way too hungry to wait some more. 0/10 recommend! read more

We had a couple beers and the short rib sliders. They were good, a little pricey for the size but a good appetizer. Great place to watch the sunset! read more

Lovely view. Otherwise a very ordinary bar. Lots of activity around the adjacent swimming pool. Music was awful; intrusive, disrespectful, and nasty. read more

I never do reviews. But I felt like I really needed to let people know to not come here if you're looking for something classy. I made a reservation online for two. When we showed up, there was no host, so we walked to the bar & were greeted by a rude bartender who acted like it was a disservice to him to seat us. There was a live DJ and people in the pool, which would be totally fine if the music wasn't so loud that you literally could not even hear your own thoughts. It took about 15 minutes for a server to come over and give us water. The furniture was dirty and the menus were falling apart. The menus didn't have much to offer. We decided to leave within 20 minutes of being there. The biggest issue was the music being extremely loud, to the point where we both had headaches within the first few minutes of being there. Come here maybe if you want to party? But absolutely not if you're looking for a nice dinner & want to talk to the person you're with. Super disappointed. The photos they have uploaded on here are nothing like the actual place. Go somewhere else! read more

Poor service and lack of wine - no red or Chardonnay ? Server seems not happy there even the view to the West sunset was awesome. Just get a whiskey and go downstairs. read more

I was blocked by this lounge on social media for adding a negative review. I think that the level of (lack of) professionalism is just terrible. Potential future guests should be able to see the good and the bad reviews from people who have actually experienced this place. They also blocked a friend of mine who was there the night of the Halloween party (10/29/22) after she left her honest review of the event. Just incredible. Do not recommend. read more

This place was a last minute decision that gave us lasting memories and an eagerness to go back. I've been having dreams about the short rib sliders since we left. The place may seem a little pricey but it more than makes up for it in quality food, pleasant service and an ambiance that can't be understated. The view, the vibe. Definitely a strong recommend! read more

Was looking at the old reviews and was pretty unsure about it, but we had to check out the view. When we got there we were pleasantly surprised. The food was good, the drinks were nice and of course the view was amazing. With the new ownership and new staff, the service was speedy and overall we all had a great experience. Thanks! Looking forward to coming here again. read more

service was great, food was good but they didn't have many options to eat which is fine, but overall pretty yummy just a little pricy which is fair ! read more

I went to the Halloween party at the skysill on October 29. Halloween is my favorite holiday and I was totally stoked to go! after attending I wish I would've just stayed home! Total disappointment! The only good part with being able to spend time with my amazing friend Kayla! Her costume was amazing as you can see it from the photos. However she wasn't even entered in the costume contest because the staff that judged and picked the five finalist were obviously biased and chose sexy scantily clad dressed women instead. One of the finalists was a basic cop nothing impressive about that at all! Then they also used my friends card fraudulently. It was evident it had been the bartender as the tab had not been closed out and was not closed out until my friend called to complain that she had left her card there and that had been used for several other charges. They were also supposed to play Halloween movies and all that was played was freaking football! Then the DJ was not great either! He very few Halloween songs and the ones that he played were nursery songs. All around a terrible experience what a way to ruin my Halloween. Also every person yes every person no exaggeration that saw my friend said that her costume was the best and they asked to take pictures with her that's how good it is and yet she wasn't even in the running and we were there on time. Would give negative stars if I could. Then when I commented on their Instagram that this was not a good experience they blocked me and would no longer let me respond. Quite unprofessional quite disappointing. Will not be returning there for any reason. read more

I find this place to be such a hidden gem... I know people who have lived in Arizona their whole lives that didn't know this place existed. I've never tried the food here but whenever I take friends up for a quick drink they absolutely love the view!! Giving it four stars because there's nothing special about the drinks they could work on jazzing up the cocktail menu a bit! It's most valuable and fun for it's a great view! Just walk right through the front hotel lobby and take the elevators up to the rooftop super easy to find but won't be tons of signs! read more

Avoid Connor at all costs. He is a terrible bartender and treats you like you're the biggest inconvenience. Ironic when you depend on tips to make a living. Even the hotel guests behind us were baffled at his lack of professionalism. read more

The bartender was very rude. She tells us that we all have to have a seat for her to serve us. I am handicapped and on a scooter and she wanted me to sit in a high back bar stool to be served. This was impossible for me . No apologies when I pointed out I am disabled. Proceed to another area and had a cocktail. Too expensive drinks that are not well crafted. Music is too loud and not good. Great place to go up and see the Tempe skyline and then leave. read more

We are local. Wanted to like this place...Never got a chance. Arrived at 11:10am on a Saturday. They open at 11. Had to pop our heads over the gate to ask the two chicks chatting behind the bar if they were indeed open. They said oh we need about 15 more minutes. Then they walked off to who knows where. So we stood around and waited outside the gate. Lots of hotel guests badging in to go to the pool (it's next to the bar). Eventually, we followed one of them in and sat in some chairs near the bar to wait for whenever the bartenders came back. They never did. After 15 minutes we decided to spend our money elsewhere. Too bad. Looked like a cool spot. Read a lot of other reviews online about bad service. Also too bad. We won't be back, unfortunately. Disappointing. read more

So pretty has a dj on Friday and Saturday I believe the drink are good and do the job. Great to go for dates and girlfriend catch ups

Good food. Good service. Great views. I would recommend this hotel and this restaurant.

Great food, cool vibes, superb service!!! Ask for Madylin. I'm very big on customer service and she exceeded all my expectations. Very knowledgeable, down to earth, and all around a great vibe. read more
