| - Like many others, I broke down my review as such:
Food - 3.5
Views - 5
Service - 5
Uniqueness - 5
So, I'm a fan. Obviously, eating atop a giant tower in a revolving restaurant will inflate food and drink prices a bit. There are two- and three-course meal options available and a la carte selections. The meal options are a way better deal because you get similar (or the same) entree with additional food. The three-course menu was $79CAD per person (about $60US per person). Drinks were $5-$10US, so typical of a restaurant/bar. Some of the cocktails were a bit pricier but also fancier so you get what you pay for.
I enjoyed my soup (yellow tomato and corn gazpacho) and baked ziti with wild mushrooms. There weren't a ton of mushrooms in the entree, but the ziti and chili sauce were delicious. My husband got the aged ribeye entree and really enjoyed it. It was a little too rare (even though he ordered medium rare) so maybe make sure they cook it medium throughout and not just one section of the cut. Since they served bread before the meal, I filled up on a bit too much of that (there was some waiting between app and entree) so I almost couldn't finish my dessert. I had the sorbet which was delicious and my husband had ice cream and cookies, which he loved. The homemade fig newton was yummo.
Obviously, the view is excellent. It takes 72 minutes for the restaurant to make one full rotation and they seem to have dinner timed pretty well to coincide with that revolution. We basically ended where we started (a little later) so we were only up there for like 90 minutes. Even though there are a lot of people, it didn't seem too loud and our server was funny and there whenever we needed him.
We actually witnessed a proposal in their wine cellar which was super cute and the couple was obviously ecstatic. This was a great place to spend our 5th wedding anniversary. We enjoyed the views, the bar below was quick and not super full while we waited for our reservation time, and our dinner came with complete access to the two levels of viewing decks, including the glass floor. We spent a bit of time down there after the meal and really enjoyed ourselves, even though it was still crowded for 11 p.m. Reservations are easy to make on their website so make sure you do that because it seemed like 95% of the tables were reserved when we arrived at 9 p.m.
