It was seat yourself and we found cozy lounge seating overlooking the city at sunset. I definitely recommend sunset, but any time would be spectacular! While we easily found a seat, I could see it being busy. Service was quick. We each ordered a cocktail and the tuna tataki. The cocktails were great and the tuna was delicious and a solid portion size. While it is pricy, it's worth it for the experience. We were staying at the hotel and had a daily foo and beverage credit which was perfect to use at the View.

The place was super lively and honestly pretty packed during my visit on a week night. The lounge itself is on the smaller side, but cozy. I like the concept, there are wire racks on the wall and each table has a little wooden game board on top (mine was Chinese checkers), such a cute touch and makes the place feel a bit more interactive. Their signature cocktail menu has a lot of options, but since it was our first time, we asked the bartender for a recommendation. He suggested "Meet Me In Pearis" since we wanted something vodka-based. The drink took about 10-15 minutes to come out, which felt a bit long, but it looked like he was the only one working, serving two big parties plus a few tables, so I get it. Service overall was still good and he was nice the whole time. For the drink... honestly, it didn't really wow me. Both the flavor and presentation were pretty underwhelming. It kind of tasted like a glass of sangria to me. I guess with "Artisanal" in the name, I was expecting something a little more unique or elevated. Overall, great location, nice vibes, and I like the interior concept. Service was solid too. Just wish the drink matched the same level. Probably wouldn't come back, but glad I got to check it off my list.

There's music playing, but it's at a perfect level where you can still easily hold a conversation. The bar area also has multiple TVs if you're looking to catch a game. The space offers more than just drinks, with a small bowling alley (six lanes) and a pool table, making it a great spot to hang out. Bathrooms are located just outside the lounge, down the hall near the elevators. Service has consistently been solid during my visits. Staffing has never been an issue, and it's always been easy to get help at the bar. The drinks are well-made and flavorful, though on the pricier side. The only food I've tried so far is the carnitas nachos, and they're definitely worth ordering. Overall, it's a fun spot for both adults and kids, and it's usually our first stop after checking in.

Problem started when fireplace my picture empty got invaded by more half a dozen adults, kids, strollers, with loud noise makers. I am all for NYE celebrations, but our food came out and this group stood all around us, rude, obnoxious, made videos kids. Completely not acknowledging they are at a bar/lounge eatery. I knew it would get worse and asked boxes to pack up our food and leave. Servers were understanding and kind, but more groups kids coming in such small area. I blame management, get yourself a HOSTESS, someone that manages seating. This was worse than a club or bar with everyone drinking because it was parents getting shots tequila, with kids, not caring about any other guests. Food was good, fresh, but it was insane environment. Your liquor license should be revoked.. plan on hearing from ABC. Toddlers sitting AT THE BAR literally on the bar counter.

Not only did this bar not provide water as a basic courtesy, but the bartender actually threw a fit each time I politely asked. I even tipped for every water cup out of respect, but that wasn't enough to stop the full-blown tantrum he threw like it was somehow beneath him to serve paying patrons water. If you're looking for a bar where hydration is treated like a personal insult, this is your spot. Otherwise, steer clear. Plenty of places in town with better service and a bartender who understands the basics of hospitality.

I feel like there is truly so much potential for this spot, but maybe they weren't set up that way. There was a taco guy outside of the venue the Friday night we stopped in. The cocktail menu is extensive and the drinks are delicious and unique, but this is literally just a place to stop in and grab a drink, then go. Walking back to our cars, we walked by a spot that was playing hip hop loud on speakers and the vibe was lively. We remarked at how we should've gone in there, then looked up and saw it was an insurance agency. Definitely the type of vibe Middle 8 should look into!
