| - I'm writing this review on our second visit to Fahrenheit, and I will say that from our first visit in 2014 to our second visit in 2017, I was not any more impressed. I gave this restaurant 3 stars, and 2 of them are for the view.
We came here primarily for the city view, which is undeniably gorgeous. If you get the privilege of seeing the sunset up on the 21st floor, you'll really enjoy it. However, that's where the impressiveness of Fahrenheit stops.
My biggest complaint is that this restaurant is strikingly overpriced. We came to celebrate a few family occasions with family from out of town, and we knew that it was expensive but opted for some cheaper options and shared pizza. The pizza easily feeds two people and the flavors were great (I recommend Mr. Fungi), but at $23 a pie, it's so not worth it. We also got jerk chicken wings, which were beautifully seasoned, but again, $14 for 6 wings? No thanks. I can say the same for the desserts (Fahrenheit candy bar is delightful), but still too much. The only menu item I did not enjoy was my mojito. Granted, the manager did ask me if it was to my liking, and I told him it was fine, but it was really the most average mojito and I would never get one there again.
My husband and I were frustrated that 3 years ago, the valet parking was free, and now they add $10 to your bill. We would have no problem with this if the menu wasn't already beyond overpriced.
So I gave this place only 3 stars because, while the food is nicely prepared, I could get nicely prepared food elsewhere for half the cost. And the drinks were not good enough to just come back for drinks and the view. We probably won't visit again--we just did not feel it was worth it.
TLDR: Good-but-not-amazing food, but overpriced and not worth it. Don't get a mojito.
