Very good cocktail and an incredible view of Manhattan and Brooklyn!
Obligatory passage

Very good bar, breathtaking view of the New York City skyline! Very expensive cocktails unfortunately but very well prepared! Very cool bar in general. Ephemeral soft canvas for winter so a little cool inside and blurry in case of strong wind! Very friendly and helpful staff until TIPS time… I recommend for the setting

Great place with a great view! Easy reservation on the website, the dishes are very good, fast and friendly service. The prices, however, are too high, it feels like Manhattan. Burger served without fries, you have to ask to get the information, too bad.
Cocktails too complicated, the mixes are strange (a simple mojito is also good and less annoying!), and like everywhere the ice cube is the size of half the glass
In the photo, for 2: 2 cocktails 1 burger 1 salmon tartare starter, €117 tip included

Would highly recommend coming for a quick cocktail ; hence no waiting for that, love the spaciousness of the outdoor deck ; would be definitely coming back in the summer, i would suggest to get the Fuji flight.

Horrible service! We left the tip of $20 and they charged us 200$ instead (for the tip). We got back to them shortly afterwards and they did not look surprised, instead had already made up responses refusing the issue and covering up for themselves. The bank said it was indeed their fault and we’re going to dispute the charge. DO NOT RECOMMEND visiting this place

Disappointing view, unfriendly service. The food was decent, but other than that, it was hard to find anything good about it.

Such an amazing place to watch a sunset. Main terrace bar has amazing views, and then you can pop upstairs periodically for almost 360 panoramas.

We were served by Stephanie, who was so so so great. Funny, human, personable, relatable - absolutely who you want to be having serve you on a last night in this incredible city.

Guys, KEEP AWAY! They are ripping you off by changing FAKE MONEY!
We just got a fake 50 $ last week and our claim just got ignored with the only comment: we don‘t take cash! You must be wrong!
Please watch out, place is not faithful but is making use of the tourism traffic to rip off! They don’t even have a working phone line! Now I know why…

DO NOT GO HERE unless you want to get ripped off! They charged us 10 times more for the tip than we left them. When we confronted the manager and the waiter, they refused and suggested it was the bank’s issue. The bank however confirmed that the charge was more than enough proof that it was done from the restaurant’s side. To me it seems like they’re doing these things usually and we weren’t the first time

Spectacular rooftop to have a drink with incredible views of all of Manhattan, the staff is very good and the atmosphere is exquisite with good music, it is a luxury to have a drink with these views, I recommend visiting this viewpoint after taking the NYC ferry. North Williamsburg stop next door, have a drink at Westlight at sunset and return on the ferry at night seeing the beautiful views of Manhattan, when I return to New York I will repeat.

The restaurant is located on the 22nd floor and has an astonishing view. The food was good. We ordered small bites to share and two drinks. The service was great. After dinner, we went to the rooftop to enjoy a conversation and drinks.

Good view but really stops there. Arrived about 4: 45pm for some drinks on a Sunday. We ordered some drinks and sat down but we’re immediately told we can only sit at 8 high chairs available near the bar. The place was maybe 40% full. We would have been happy to have more drinks there but I quote the woman that told us we couldn’t sit literally said “you can sit at those 8 chairs (5 already full) or you can sit outside, but it’s raining outside” word for word. Definitely could have been a little more accommodating especially when many other tables were just having drinks and not ordering food. They should train their staff better for maximum profitability and customer satisfaction. They could have easily made a lot more money off us and just told us if people come to eat we would be asked to move.

I stayed at the William Vale Hotel for a week with friends and colleagues. The views are amazing from this 22nd floor restaurant.

I booked three times. On two occasions our outside tables were cancelled due to weather which is completely understandable but I was disappointingly amused by the haughty pretensions of the two maitre’ds on the front desk when we turned up without seeing the cancellation email. Being more human and less self-important would be more of an asset to the business than projecting a peculiar kind of unearned superiority.

Later in the week a group of us still had a lovely evening inside. The food is good enough rather than great, but the service was thoroughly excellent at the table and bar. However, be prepared to pay for the view. Examples are $18 bottles of sparkling water and $13 fries. Still, that view is worth it, I think.

Best rooftop in NYC! We were only there for drinks, no food. They have an excellent cocktail menu and impeccable view of the city skyline. Sunsets obviously best time to go:)

Very nice view, the food is delicious, I ordered a tuna treat, some very delicious duck carnitas tacos, the sauce was delicious, a burger that was also good good service.

It’s worth it to go from Manhattan to Brooklyn and go on top of that rooftop bar to see the most beautiful Manhattan skyline, they have wide balcony and 2 floors, great ambience, and very good cocktails.

Place not to be missed. This roof top offers a breathtaking view of Manhattan. The sunset is just magical. Very trendy atmosphere. The prices remain affordable for this type of place and the food is good. On the other hand, although proposed by the establishment, if you have expressed a wish (special attention for a birthday for example), it will not necessarily be accepted. Big disappointment for the surprise for my wife. Note that above the restaurant, the bar offers a huge terrace with the same sublime view. Count on 20 dollars per glass, in line with the prices of trendy places in Paris.

Great view of Manhattan but the cocktail.meh. $20 for an Aperol Spritz that was not even fresh (premade and flat). Come for the view but go somewhere else for drinks and food!

It's the coolest rooftop bar in Brooklyn, and there are many restaurants and fashionable shops nearby, so it's best to go after dinner.
I highly recommend it, as it is sure to impress travelers and others.just,
The one with the lowest rating is
It seems to depend on the time of year, but we had to order a minimum of $500.
(Depending on the number of people, it seems to be between $500 and $2000?)
*Perhaps because it was close to closing time, I ordered 4 bottles of wine, but they ran out of them and they passed on them.

Also, the staff's customer service is very poor, and I order the wrong drink many times. Pour the different wines you ordered into the same glass without any hesitation. It was very strange, like he was always angry because he was busy, or he would disappear even when I was in the middle of a conversation with a customer. (Maybe you're a newbie, but.)
Other than that I'm very satisfied.

Came for drinks with my girls and we had a good time. It was too cold to stay outside but the view was amazing. Cocktails are good. The food is ok. The decor is really nice. Book in advance to be sure to be seated.
