Friendly and efficient service, great view of the bay. Our group enjoy the foods ordered. A nice stop after a visit to the USS Midway Museum.

Just came here this past weekend for a birthday brunch and it was wonderful!

Maxwell Myers
I certainly can’t speak for those who’ve had bad experiences, but we thought this was a nice place to go to for great lunch! Not busy at all on a holiday weekend, and you can go to it even though you’re not a hotel guest! They will validate your parking for three hours, even then parking is only an extra $6/hour after that. Nice patio view on the 3rd floor towards the cruise ship docks. You can kind of see the USS Midway from here as well. Food was awesome. A bit pricy, but what can you do when it’s in the InterContinental.

Definitely liked our visit to this restaurant. It was included as dining while staying at the Intercontinental hotel and serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Their bartenders were friendly and knowledgeable. The service can be slow at times, however the staff seems to be generous.

The restaurant has a great aesthetic and well as a phenomenal back drop with a clear view of the Harbor. Food was amazing and if you sit on the patio the will bring a heat lamp directly to your table so you won’t be cold while out there

Excellent service, delicious food, beautiful view. The staff was very attentive and provided blankets and heaters when the sunset.

Manuel Navedo
Lots of potential with this place. Views and space are amazing. Cocktails are good too. However service and food could be improved. Our experience was not terrible, but certainly did not live to all the good experiences we had in other places around town. Suggestion is to set proper expectations with this place before going.

Came here for breakfast and LOVED it! It was so good and the views were spectacular. Our waiter was super kind and everything we ate was delicious. It wasn’t insanely expensive and would definitely come back next time I’m in the area!

Not sure I understand the bad reviews for this place. We had a great experience.

UNDERRATED. The food and service was hands down 100% phenomenal. The kitchen is shared between 2 restaurants and the hotel room service, so the food can come out sporadically, but freaking delicious none the less. Sitting outside for beautiful views of the harbor is just a plus.
