I recently had the pleasure of dining and enjoying cocktails at Above 8, and it was nothing short of exceptional. Every dish we tried was a masterpiece, beautifully presented and bursting with taste. The rooftop setting is chic and inviting, with comfortable seating and an atmosphere that effortlessly blends elegance and relaxation. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and polite. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a night out with friends, Above 8 delivers on every level. I can’t wait to return!

My friends and I had a great time at By Sang. The food was delicious and the service was attentive. The stand out dish to me is the dry aged duck. It was full of unami. We also enjoyed the chirashi donburi with the fresh seafood and also the fact we can make our own hand sushi with the seaweed sheets.
