    The restaurant view is great but the dining room was so cold you had to wear a coat while eating. Even the servers were wearing a coat. Drinks were very expensive, $24 for a small gin and tonic.

    The food and service was AMAZING!!! I love the Vue. I do wish the Christmas menu had more of a variety and of course it's a bit overpriced...I spent $400 for a 2 person dinner...no dessert and only 2 drinks per person. But my sea bass was superb and my husband loved the ribeye.

    The experience started on a positive note with the hostess making an amazing first impression. However, the service fell short, as our server seemed overwhelmed and distracted. We never felt we had their full attention and were rushed through ordering and paying, which negatively impacted the overall dining experience. I ordered the Tres Leches French Toast. While it was flavorful, it was overly sweet for my taste. The accompanying bacon was underwhelming, lacking the crispness and flavor you’d hope for. I also tried the “I Want S’more” drink, which was a disappointment. The presentation did not live up to the enticing social media photos—it lacked flair and appeal. The drink itself had a much stronger whiskey flavor than expected, overpowering the chocolate element. Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the hype and isn’t something I’d recommend. Overall, this spot didn’t meet expectations for brunch.

    The food was decent, but the ambience and setting were fantastic. The cocktails were excellent, and the high menu prices seem to reflect the view and service rather than the quality of the food, which doesn’t quite match the stunning scenery.

    Very disappointed with the service my guest and I received. The waiter was rude. He was inattentive, brusque, and then added on a 20% gratuity for two guests (maybe this is the restaurants policy, but I feel this is bad form for a small party). I brought someone here who was not local hoping to show them a good time for brunch. Would not recommend.

    Linda vista, con hermoso lugar. Lamentablemente en los estados unido el tema de atención al cliente de los americanos a nosotros los latinos a veces deja mucho que desear
