| - The rooftop terrace and bar are awesome for late summer nights and it is the only reason why I would consider coming back.
I went there for their Rooftop BBQ event (entrance was 7$ with a free beer which is more than reasonable) and it was alright, the DJ was good, the staff was friendly and the setting was perfect but the atmosphere in itself could have been better. The way you are welcomed at the door is already an indication of the kind of place you're getting in, they were "filtering" people on questionable criteria. Now I understand the need for some degree of selectivity when you're trying to convey a certain image as an establishment, but this was far beyond a simple "dress code" issue.
This can seem very subjective and, yes, indeed, it is, but I felt like this was the kind of place where people go to see and be seen, and that was it. If you want to get up there, grab a cheap beer and take an insta pic with a view before leaving early, go ahead, but that's about it. I'd recommend going there with a group of friends as the place is great, but you definitely have to bring the party with you, 'cause there's not much "party" there in the first place, just a whole lot of noise and confused people taking selfies.
I will definitely go back to try it out on a random night as I saw a lot of good reviews, I may have been at the wrong place at the wrong time and the event itself was not really well organized, who knows. Although I definitely feel like I could have a better time somewhere else.
