    Salmon, rice, string beans, and sweet potatoes.

    OMG! My experience at the Skylon Revolving Restaurant was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. The service was great, the atmosphere was beautiful, and the view was simply breathtaking. Being able to enjoy a meal while the restaurant slowly revolves and offers incredible views of Niagara Falls made the experience feel truly special. But the food was the highlight. I ordered the salmon, and it was indescribably delicious. It came with rice, and I did not realize it also included vegetables until the plate arrived. The string beans were good, but the sweet potatoes were absolutely incredible. Everything on the plate was cooked and seasoned so well. It was honestly the best meal I have had in a very long time. My servers (Alex and John) also made the experience even more memorable. Alex asked if I was celebrating a special occasion, and I told him I was celebrating both my birthday and my graduation. He brought out a slice of cheesecake with berries, and it was perfect. Not one berry was tart, and the cheesecake had the perfect consistency. It was such a thoughtful and delicious way to end the meal. After dinner, I went to the observation deck to take more pictures and also purchased the Skylon 3D/4D movie about the Legend of Niagara Falls. The entire experience felt like a blessing and a beautiful celebration. I would highly recommend the Skylon Revolving Restaurant. The view is unforgettable, the service is wonderful, and the food was absolutely outstanding. This was one of the best dining experiences I have had in a very long time.

    Enjoyed this experience. We did the observation tower only with the barrel museum. Restaurant had mixed reviews so we didn't try that yet. I've done things like this before including the bar at the top of the stratosphere and the oue Los Angeles so pretty similar concept as far as the ride and view. We came for the night view to check out the falls illumination and when we got there it appeared they were not lit. Not like we've seen in pictures with pretty colors but after a while it started to change a did each color, rainbow, country flag colors, etc. the barrel museum was small but interesting.

    Elevator is fast. Can take pictures or video, just hold your phone close to the glass so no reflection. We came for dinner, then had the chance to walk up the flights stairs to the observatory. Popped outside long enough to take one picture, was too cold for me to stay longer. View from inside were wonderful. Could all of the falls, each side lit up. There is a little store there with souvenirs and clothing. The displays were very interesting- the celebrities who had dined there and pic and stats for each tall building across the world by the year they were built. We did the two photos for 35- they turned out great! Also the first floor has a large amusement area with skeeball and lots of games. Tip- if at the casino, go down to the Synergy area and exit the doors at the end. They will take you on the walkway over the street and right to Skylon- so close!

    The best view of Niagara Falls!! The top of tower is the best! You can grab dinner at the restaurant or just hang out (not literally) on the observation deck. It takes about 1 minute to get to the top and it's a beautiful experience!

    Skylon Tower is ranked among the top Niagara Falls attractions, offering dining, sightseeing, and family fun under one iconic roof. The actual height of the Skylon Tower from the base is 520 feet. I made a reservation at 4:30 for the Revolving Dining room. The restaurant slowly rotates 360° every hour, giving you a changing panoramic view of the Falls, the Niagara River, the city, and beyond. To get to the restaurant, we rode the glass elevator that gets to the top in about 52 seconds. We were greeted by the host and promptly seated at a table with amazing views of the American Falls, the Canadian Horseshoe Falls, the Bridal Veil Falls, the Great Gorge, the Niagara Wine Region, and even the skylines of Buffalo and Toronto. We did the three course early dinner that includes baguette and butter, mixed green salad, and chocolate mousse chantilly for dessert. For entrees we had the Roast Prime Rib of Beef au Jus - Prime rib slow roasted cooked perfectly to your liking, paired with a creamy horseradish sauce. Beef Tenderloin Strips Stroganoff - Strips of beef tenderloin sautéed in a cream sauce of mushrooms and white wine on a bed of linguine pasta. Grilled Fresh Salmon Filet - Perfectly season salmon filet topped with a hand-crafted hollandaise sauce. The food was cooked and seasoned well and was a good portion sizes. I was full and had leftovers of my prime rib. I ordered a peach Bellini from the bar which was a tasty frozen cocktail. The reservation also included free admission to the Ride-to-the-Top and both the Indoor and Outdoor Observation We went up to the observation deck to see more views of the falls. Visibility from the Observatory on a clear day is up to 80 miles (125 km). I highly recommend visiting this attraction to experience an enjoyable dining experience along with amazing food. The views from the glass door elevator and observation deck were amazing, although I preferred the views from the enclosed 360 restaurant.

    I think this was called a seafood supreme

    Unbelievable view really good food too. Very expensive burgers, 40 something dollars. I didn't get the seafood supreme. I think that's what it was called. It was really good.

    Buffet items including smoked salmon, stirfry muscles, curry meatballs, vegetables pasta, and some cold salad.

    Dinner buffet for $49 Canadian dollars per person was pretty good. However, the service was questionable. You see that Caucasian at one part (south side of the restaurant) and all the Asians were placed to the other side (more of the north side). Although the view was really good , our server was pretty nice, but that way where everybody sits just made me uncomfortable.

    What a fun view! The options and the pricing was fair. The service was pretty average but the food was quite good. The desserts were the best part.

    My husband and I came here to celebrate our anniversary after a full day being tourists at the falls. This was the perfect ending to our evening with the perfect view. I love that you get the view of the city and Niagara Falls with the revolving tower. I ordered the Chilean sea bass and it was cooked to perfection and delicious. The filet mignon that my husband ordered was so tender and just as delicious. Everything from the food, wine, view, and service exceeded our expectations. I'm so glad this is where we celebrated our anniversary.

    The view from the restaurant

    Very good food. Pricey, but you're getting very good food AND the ride up with access to the observation tower. My wife and both of my parents LOVED this. I thought it was very good, but I'm a bit of a cheapskate. The views, though, are undeniable. The food was really good, and we walked it off a bit on the observation deck after (which was fantastic). Our servers were attentive; one was very friendly, the other was just fine. I probably wouldn't do it again, but I'm glad I did it the once.

    I reserved my ticket online for the Ride-to the-Top observation deck experience while I was eating breakfast nearby. I visited the top of the tower on a very windy and rainy morning so that made for an adventure of its own. Needless to say, not that many people were out with me braving the winds and rain. The tower is a must do while in Niagara Falls for the 360° views. To see the area from this vantage point is a great way to appreciate the surrounding area. There is a Starbucks and souvenir shop at the base in case you need either.

    We made reservations for the buffet. Paid parking on site $20 + 39.99 per person buffet. Salad bar area , roasted veggies, spicy noodle, a choice of meats chicken , beef, a fish does with some grab and go cups- the food was just ok, meat a little dry. You dont come here for the food, it's an experience of the view . The view is amazing and cool to watch everything down there

    We had a wonderful experience, the food was very good with great flavor. The place has a great ambience and is very welcoming. The service was top-notch as there were two ladies assigned to our table and they hustle to make sure that our service was superb, cheers

I'd call this a little below decent and terrible variety. The buffet has less choices than a hotel breakfast. There was one small table and both sides has the same thing. There were pancakes, waffles, eggs, sausage, bacon, chicken nuggets, some type of cake thing I didn't eat, plain yogurt, jello, rice pudding and toast. Again it was ok. I had the waffle and French toast. Soggy. The sausage was not very good. Bacon, have to find the good pieces. Same with the eggs. Toast was strange rice pudding was good as well as the little Greek bun things. All in all would probably not return. If the dinner was cheaper maybe try that but if it's anything like the breakfast quality I would say not worth $26 and not cheaper than other options around. Service was friendly though.

We wanted to go to iHop or Dennys, but decided to give the local breakfast buffet a chance, horrible idea. The food was hard and stale. The only thing made fresh was the tater tots which is the only thing on my whole plate that I enjoyed. Also, almost $6 for the tiniest serving of orange juice. Service was okay. They were nice but definitely rushing us, even to pay. Ambiance was okay. Bright and peaceful. Also, I did not check the reviews before going.

Then so many tables that were vacant bc nobody wanted to play those- like War and Bahama Bonus blackjack. Only one Carribean Stud table that was also full. Glad I was able to play both after waiting for a seat to open up. On Mississippi Stud they raise the minimum from 15 to 25 in the evening. No free drinks due to Ontario law. That was very different as have never paid for a drink in a US casino. The cashiers and player card personnel were friendly enough and seemed like they had enough employees where you didn't have to wait long
