| - I have been here twice, both times for a birthday, and both times with reservations made for our party by my Step-Father (authoritative guy who doesn't mess around). We had a rather large party of around 12 the first time around, and we had to wait for our table - a busy Saturday evening. We arrived early as it was a surprise party and the other half of the party was to arrive 20 minutes later) but they ushered our half to the waiting area and had us at our table within 10 minutes) The birthday girl arrived and was pleasantly surprised to see the whole fam jam there, so the servers helped pull off a nice little surprise.
Our family adores seafood, so we always splurge for the for the 360 seafood platter and have been delighted every time by the freshness and selection of the seafood. The only note I'd have towards that, is that their chilled lobster is overcooked and slightly on the tougher side. The mains I've ordered here were the rib eye rare (fabulous, like meaty butter, melting right in your mouth) and the beef cheeks (also fabulous, absurdly tender, richly flakey and soo soo good). You have to order separate sides for most of the steaks, and yes, it's a money grab, but you are paying for quality, and that is what you get most of the time.
I did experience absurdly slow service during an early dinner reservation (5-7 pm) with the restaurant at mid capacity. BUT, the relaxed service seems to fade away as you admire the views of the city and chit chat with your dining compatriots while WASTED on expensive wine. I have never entirely minded the slow service, but I did notice it and have thought in my head (Um, I'm hungry, I wants ma meats, WHERE IS MY MEATS) and then 5 minutes later, it shows up. In the 360's defence, my Step pops is a big guy who ordered a huge steak and wanted it medium well done with a touch of pinkness and that's exactly what they brought out. Plus our server was a super cool accommodating dude and by the end of the service he was cracking jokes with our table and we were just having a rollicking good time.
