Great view ! You can sit outside and soak it all in. I recommend getting a drink to enjoy the view but if you want to eat, do yourself a favor & walk a block to Little Italy for the best Italian food .

Ciuciu

One of my go-to spots in Little Italy. Your corner bar top-notch service paired with an amazing view and tasty food and innovative drinks. Late night HH at 10pm! Try the duck fries !

Great place for Sunday brunch with an awesome harbor view . Beer selection is small but they do a great job of getting a non-standard selection of beers from the best local breweries .

Nathan Zeke

Check out the new menu. Fantastic fish dishes + they will custom create any vegetarian dish . They have always taken care of me here.

Roger Ma

Awesome view of the SD Bay (and bottomless mimosas )!

Epic It

Go for the Gator Asada fries ! Yes I do mean alligator fries . It's off the mean and it's market price. Enjoy!

Steve Leonard

Amazing city and sunset views . Handcrafted cocktails are great.

Leeanne

Food and service is ok, but the view is ALWAYS worth it. Free valet as well .

Great view and happy hour !

Kayla Herrera

The duck confit fries are to die for!

Alfa

The bar tenders need a crash course in customer service.

Rodney Lippard

Come for happy hour ! Hell's Kitchen Manhattans are excellent.

Sejal

Nice view and they replaced meh drinks, but it didn't make up for the mediocre food or the bad service. Our waitress , Meesha, was condescending and forgetful. Don't think we'll be back.

If you are looking for an amazing view at sunset , this is the place. I found the staff to be just fine.

Jonathan Shaw

The tuna nicoise is fantastic. Warning...it is a massive portion . No additional sides necessary.

William Harris

staff was super helpful and really excited to help us with the menu

Thomas Itpick

Might be more expensive than it's worth. They deep fried gator when it totally should have been grilled. These guys are NOT "Top Chef " ready...

@DowntownRob Marlbrough

Bacon wrapped lamb loin! Or crab stuffed scallops .

House Music Every Friday and Saturday Night, all night long...

Lucas Macallan

Worst costumer service ever! I don't know why everybody was so rude, we waited for forty mins for our drinks and they never arrived... After the wait we decided to leave

melissa ta

Artichoke dip and sake boy Choy were yummy!

Curtis Ayers

The duck fries were good..however the sliders were just OK..

Jim Goode

Do not expect any of the staff to be particularly friendly . Do not expect the bartender to pour your drink before all of the restaurant orders. Do not expect to be told about any happy hour specials .

Jason Smith

Come here for the view of the harbor . Overpriced, mediocre food but reasonably priced drinks.

Talia Flagan

Okay view mediocre food .

Melonie Gallegos

Ask for the DowntownRob special.

Gerard Finnerty

Half off bottles of wine on Wednesday!

christian vantvlie

Tip is. Don't go an support a business that is owned by an gashole. Worst boss, owner and respects no one. Good view but poor ownership

Brian Delehoy

Not going back. #NufSaid
