    Nothing beats sunset with a cocktail and a tasty bite at The Rooftop, but especially in autumn. Beautiful views to the north and south, consistently good service and a fun vibe. Try one of the signature cocktails!

    What a wonderful experience! My Girlfriend and I had an amazing time. The food was excellent and super fresh. The atmosphere, totally amazing with beautiful ocean views, the drinks were good, and the music was nice and mellow enough that you can hold an actual conversation! The wait staff were excellent, the best people! They were attentive to our needs and made sure that we were satisfied. It was nice meeting and interacting with warm and friendly Tara too! I live close to a wonderful place that I've never been. Shame on me, it's a real Rockaway gem. Thank all of you for making our evening amazing! I will be back! ✨️
