So I recently went to West for the first time on a nice sunny afternoon with a few girlfriends. We went with intentions of enjoying the sun on the patio.
I must first say that the patio is very nice indeed! It gets lots of sun and has walls up that block out the wind. There is plenty of comfortable seating as well as ample heat lamps and umbrellas if needed.
My complaint with West though is its pretentiousness. It gives off a very cold vibe and has a way of making a person feel somewhat insecure. Also it seems to be confused as to if it wants to be classy or trashy cause its a mixture of both. The de core and menu are on the classy side and they seem to attract a lot of the buisness crowd. Yet there were many trashy things going on at the same time . A lot of the servers were wearing bikini tops and some of them were even bouncing around in a kiddie pool bouncing a beach ball back and forth. There was also a male staff member wearing only swim trunks and water wings running around spraying vodka into peoples mouths with a water gun.....Nothing wrong with any of that but if you want to be that type of bar then be that type of bar. Don't pretend to have class.
However I must add that all of their slushy drinks on the menu were absolutely delicious.
