Jacquelina JuncajApril 8, 2017Such good food. The goat cheese balls are fantastic. Happy hr is Sunday through Friday from 4-6:30 pm & it's well worth it as the $8 designated dishes are $4. Fly Bar has live music and a rooftop bar.UpvoteDownvote
NayApril 20, 2014Could not enjoy the roof top tnt. Try the scallops, buttermilk shrimp pancakes (pictured) and the mussels. Oh, the pork belly is also good. Wine by the glass is limited however, great cocktail list.UpvoteDownvote
Carol AlexanderFebruary 17, 2017Trendy but very nice. Great location if you are attending the Straz as you are able to walk a short distance to the theaters.Upvote1Downvote
Kristin McKDecember 29, 2014Great food (black bean nachos, hummus platter, beef tips, shrimp etc...) and great scene. If your a food enthusiast you'll truly enjoy! Late night menu is great too!UpvoteDownvote
Amy WoodDecember 10, 2012The rooftop deck is amazing & their drink specials are really unique. Try the panko crusted goat cheese plate.

Melissa BlackAugust 20, 2014Great cocktails and menu! The rooftop is fun, when it's open! Fresh juices and ingredients make it very tasty!Upvote1Downvote
Timica GilmoreFebruary 11, 2013The Roja Viejo is ok but not my favorite. It's very briny from the green olives mixed in when cooking; so it also tastes a bit gamey as well. However the plantain chips on top are the best I ever had.UpvoteDownvote
Kaitlyn WatsonMarch 21, 2015Great food and rooftop bar. Be warned that the food comes out of the kitchen at random intervals, not as a group, for whatever strange lazy kitchen reason.UpvoteDownvote- Dipesh PatelSeptember 25, 2014Awesome drinks and good appetizers. The rooftop isn't as great as most rooftops but the vibe is more chill than most.Upvote2Downvote
Josh ChildMay 8, 2014Great food and atmosphere. The bacon scallops and hummus plate (add the lamb) is delicious!UpvoteDownvote
Scallops are great. Fries are great. Brussel sprouts are great. Nachos are not my favorite and nacho favorite either.UpvoteDownvote
Love the roof top bar. Good happy hour specials. Iron chairs in dining room are the worst. They really need to invest in cushions.Upvote3Downvote
Amanda GoldsboroughMarch 20, 2015Aristaios cocktail is amazing and the nachos with Cuban pork is great about to try the friesUpvoteDownvote
