| - My husband and I have come here a few times for dinner and sometimes just for drinks and a desert. When coming for dinner, we always make reservations on open table.com. We get seated within a couple of minutes. The view is absolutely amazing, we try to get there just as the sun is setting and it's beautiful everytime. The service is great, the waiters are knowledgable, friendly and very attentive. When ordering appetizers, you're paying for quality not quantity. They're delicious, but they're small portions, a great starter dish but not enough to share. If you want to start off with something, I highly suggest the compass bisque. It is packed with flavor and the most delicious bisque we've ever had. Another highlight of the Compass is the chili cornbread. I can eat that as a meal by itself, it is so good. It is also served with the honey butter and makes a perfect pair. My husband typically order the filet mignon and he can't stop talking about how tender and delicious the meat is. He is incredibly picky about meat, but the Compass serves up a high quality peice of meat. I typically get the fish of the day, and as always it's flavorful and very fresh. I like it now how you are able to choose the sides you want. Everything from the mac n' cheese, to the garlic mash is just delicious. When there's still room, you can't leave the Compass without trying one of their desserts. We've tried the strawberry shortcake which was incredibly moist and rich, the creme brulee was to die for, and the southwest tiramisu was heavenly. They have a satisfactory wine list, it provides a variety for both the red and white drinkers.
When choosing the Compass, keep in mind both things. You're paying for the quality of food and the amazing view. This is considered by us to be a special occassion kind of place. Don't expect to walk out with a $50 bill. Everything about this place is awesome, whether you're going for dinner or simply drinks and a view.
Also, if you're considering drinks and apps, try going during a monsoon, it's unbelievable!!
