    If this place wasn't situated near Lake Merritt, I would never come here. Service still sucks pretty bad. So come fed & have your flask ready in the mean time. View is gorgeous though.

    The Spicy Chicken wings are underwhelming (read: undercooked & gross). I sent mine back. I NEVER send food back.
