ROOF

Went here for a couple of drinks prior to an event in the neighborhood.  Definitely a "hip" environment, which means uncomfortable chairs and other weird things going on, though it did add to the people watching!

Service was great, super attentive waittress, but the drinks were way overpriced.  This is definitely not the kind of place to belly up and sit for an entire night.

The fact that it is on the roof is pretty cool, but the end that overlooks the river is blocked in by a bar, and the rest of it really just looks out on buildings - the Wit isn't tall enough for a great view (except perhaps the blocked one).

I think that with the roof open it could be a different atmosphere - who doesn't love sitting in the sun and sipping on a cocktail - however I wasn't impressed overall, and left with a severely lighter wallet.

I realize this is the Wit...and apparently that alone provides them the ability to make things expensive...However a $300 food and beverage minimum in today's economy just seems excessive and makes the place unapproachable. I was just trying to show off the view to out of town guests without making them stand in line.  It is disappointing because I have seen it advertised a great deal, but not the 300 min.  I have never been and unfortunately this will keep me from going.

Never have I been to a more douchey place. Ever. And I have seen my fair said of douchbaggery places.  Takes the cake.
