Stopped here for a drink with the recommendation from a friend. Great views of the city and interesting drink specials. The large "family style" tables are slightly awkward if you're on a date and you find yourself sitting right next to a bunch of people that you don't know but the atmosphere is overall an A!

Great place to bring out of town guests for the views alone.  Tried a couple appetizers that were pretty good, you will pay some $$ for a meal but again you just can't beat the view.  Upscale crowd (at least ppl that think they are cool).  Dress to impress (if you care).

I wouldn't hang out here regularly, but this is a really nice spot that I think is good for downtown STL. It's a pretty swanky "club" that has excellent views of the skyline and looms above Busch Stadium, which is pretty cool. Plus, the place has a nice elemental vibe, with vertical gardens, fire, water features and stone. I dig.

What would prevent me from coming back on the regular? Two things. First, the prices are as high as the bar itself. $8 for a well vodka is crazytalk. Second, the crowd is kinda douchey. A lot of $30K millionaires in the crowd, it seems. I'm just not one for the see-and-be-seen scene. It's even more odd considering they are a hotel bar, and thus many of the guests don't really fit this vibe.  

Still, the staff was friendly, the aforementioned views were great, and it was nice to do something a bit out of the ordinary. I'd go back, for sure.
