Skybar

Skybar can be hit or miss.

Once, we hit & it was awesome. Great crowd, cool people, decent music, & the staff was on point with the drinks.

That other time there were around 7 people there and the music was somebody's ipod i think.

On the bright side, though, there wasn't a cover charge for ladies so my crew & I headed down the road to one of the other bars within walking distance.

You've been warned.

My husband and I enjoy this classy little spot. It's fun to sit at the bar and people watch. Often times there are bachelorette parties and leftover happy hour folks dancing the night away. The martinis are not cheap but worth every penny. The staff is pretty hot and friendly. For a downtown dweller, this place is a breath of fresh air. Get there before 11pm to find a place to sit or even stand because it can get pretty claustrophobic.

Lacks class  --  trashiest dining experience ever!!

Made reservations a few weeks in advance for a dinner celebration.  Called two days in advance and received confirmation the day before.  No one greeted us when we arrived.  Had to flag down staff to get seated. They proceeded to take us to a room filled with balloons, cookies, and cupcakes.  It was lovely and very appropriate for the occassion. We asked who had decorated and brought the sweets and were told they were from our server.  Ten minutes later we were told we had been seated in the wrong room.  We were moved to a different party room and while it was embarrassing to be shuffled through the bar and there were no longer ballooons or cupcakes to honor our celebration, the new room was comfortable nonetheless.  The server arrived, presumably to apologize, take our drink order and get us back on the right foot. Instead, it went from bad to worse.

We were again informed that we were taken to the wrong room.  At this point we were in disbelief as they asked us to move to the main bar area  which would soon become very crowded area surrounded with sloppy couples standing over our chairs while making out.  It was clear at that point there were no efforts made to reserve us a space where we could celebrate and enjoy a pleasant dinner.  Compounding all of these issues was the disparate efforts for the other group (cupcakes and cookies room was celebrating the same type of occasion).

Never saw anyone that resembled a manager.  No one ever stopped by our table to apologize about this ridiculous faux pas.  Service was equally as poor.  When we ordered our appetizers our server was not even sure whether the kitchen was open although we made it clear we were coming for dinner when making our reservations.  An hour after arriving we finally got appetizers on the table but had to wait another ten minutes for silverware. Half of our drinks were served in plastic cups while the other half were in appropriate glassware. Many of those drinks ended up being spilled by the server when she attempted to sit them down.  

The whole experience was so awkwared we left that wretched place still hungry.  A shameless poor experience on a night intended to honor a dear friend.  

This place seemed like a hookup bar well suited for anyone experiencing a mid-life crisis or for those that enjoy loud, overplayed pop music.  It is nothing like the website claims and was a poor representation of what Lexington has to offer.

If you want service and a pleasent dining experience GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!! Not worth wasting your time on this classless joke.
