We went there for our anniversary on a Sunday in June so it was not too busy but the venue was AMAZING. Rotating bar at sunset it was fantastic. The DJ was playing great lounge music, it was chill, it was relaxed, and we could hear each other talking. The staff was professional, courteous, and attentive. Really great vibe. They even brought a little chocolate mousse cake to celebrate our anniversary. Nice touch. I will definitely go there again.

So am not into leaving any reviews because I feel there’s Buisness that suffer just because a bad employee or a very complicated guest. Saying that I feel that there main focus is on what you’re wearing and not your experience. I appreciate there dress code but not to the extreme where even tho you have jeans with a button shirt they dont except jeans. I believe no one wears a suit with Florida weather for Sunday brunch. Saying all these. The gentleman working as a host downstairs was very nice and polite and helpful the hostess upstairs where very friendly and positive attitude the ambiance and what they did with the bar is amazing and beautiful. There specialty drinks outstanding. Once we waved down anyone to place another round. Happened twice and we had to get up and serve our own champagne because no one would come by to do so. The food is more like tapas which is fine. Just be prepared to have dirty empty plates for a while. Again am not into leaving any reviews but it’s not cheap we were the first table to be seated on a Sunday 3pm so restaurants was not busy at all maybe 5 or 6 tables seated. I think GM should be looking over guest experience and not guest type of jeans and shoes. But I do believe and appreciate that you have to be formal dressed but not take it to the extreme specially with Florida weather.

The hotel was beautiful. Paying $22 a cocktail was outrageous especially for the off-season. There are other fine hotels in the area that are not price gouging.

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL renovation. Our party of 4 enjoyed the ambiance tremendously! A bit pricey, but for the view it was worth it. We had cocktails, but no food. Definitely go for a cocktail and the views, that alone is worth it

SO happy to have this iconic space reopened! It was lovely, the view was awesome, the drinks great. Starting with the delightful young man who greeted us downstairs, checked us in and escorted us to the elevator. When we asked a question about the cheese platter, the chef/food manager came out to answer. Service was great with one exception- we ordered a bottle of champagne and cocktails. When our champagne glasses were empty i caught the server and asked her to pour more. She did and then said ‘ it’s your bottle, you can pour more whenever you want.’ At this level of place i expected it to be poured. I was wearing a silk dress and was concerned about dripping water from the ice bucket on my dress, but managed to avoid doing so. that was minor-the overall experience was delightful.

Thank you for your kind words and for celebrating the reopening with us! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the view, service, and overall experience. We’ve noted your feedback regarding the champagne service and will share it with our team. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

As soon as we sat down alarms went off so we had to evacuate down the stairs. Not the best experience
Pier TopResponded on 3 June 2025
We're sorry your visit was disrupted by the unexpected alarm. It was a rare and unforeseen situation where guest safety had to come first. This isn’t reflective of the Pier Top experience, and we hope you’ll consider returning.

The person that welcomed us on arrival was surly. It was not a good start. However, our waitress Alice was a delight in many ways. We ordered the cheese board....it came on a very uninteresting white plate with very few of what they called 'crackers'. I requested more and Alice happily brought more. They are frankly unsuited for hard cheeses which is what the platter is made up of. Nothing particularly interesting or novel. Everyone else was gracious and kind.
Pier TopResponded on 3 June 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're sorry to hear the welcome you received didn’t reflect the warm hospitality we strive for—your comments will be shared with our team. We're glad to hear Alice made a positive impression and that the rest of our staff was gracious throughout your visit. We also appreciate your feedback on the cheese board presentation and accompaniments, and we’ll take it into consideration as we continue to refine our offerings. We hope to welcome you back for an improved experience.
