    My experience at this place was absolutely incredible! The service was top-notch, and the waitress who took care of us was simply amazing. She was friendly, kind, and incredibly patient. She even checked in with us to make sure everything was going well. Her suggestions and recommendations on the menu were spot-on, especially since she seemed to know everything about their offerings. This isn’t my first time here, and I’m already planning to come back again and again. This place is truly amazing!

    We expected a special experience at the Tower Bar Restaurant this week, but we were pleasantly surprised by how much better it was than expected! The atmosphere was timeless and chic, the food was exceptional, and the service was beyond compare. It started at the front desk and was superb throughout our meal. We were never rushed, and were able to enjoy a long and relaxing brunch with multiple courses. The price was more reasonable than expected. And Angel our server was a true brand ambassador … he was knowledgeable, kind, entertaining, and made us want to not only return to the restaurant, but stay at the hotel the next time that we are in town. Thanks so much for a superb dining experience for the whole family. We can’t wait to come back again.

    This place is a delight! I’m very sad they’re about to stop dinner services. Stop wasting money at other inferior places and spend it here so they’ll bring dinner back! But all their food is great all the time, especially the biscuits. The staff are uniformly lovely and efficient. I feel so lucky that this is a neighborhood spot for me.
