Weekday lunch: Typically no wait or short 10–15 min wait

Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes β€” the fire pits, skyline views, and shareable menu make it easy to keep things relaxed and flirty without committing to a long formal dinner.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Sometimes β€” early evening walk-ins have the best shot, but peak weekend nights are unpredictable and often booked solid.
Is it kid-friendly? Not really β€” this is primarily an adult cocktail lounge atmosphere and best suited for ages 21+.
Best For
Better for: Casual rooftop dates, girls’ nights, and fire-pit lounging with easygoing food rather than formal dining.
Skip if: You want a quiet, food-forward dinner or guaranteed seating without planning ahead.

Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes β€” the skyline, fire pits, and cocktails create instant chemistry, but it’s best earlier in the evening before it turns into more of a party scene.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Possible on weeknights or earlier in the day, but expect long waits after 6:30pm on weekends β€” reservations are strongly recommended.
Is it kid-friendly? Not ideal for young kids β€” it’s primarily an adult cocktail-driven rooftop with a late-night party atmosphere.
Best For
Better for: Frozen cocktails, fire pit ambiance, and a true party-style rooftop energy rather than a quiet skyline lounge.
Skip if: You want an intimate, quiet rooftop dinner or a food-first destination rather than a drink-forward social scene.
