    Nice roof top scene. Looking forward to spring menu and warmer weather to experience outdoor setting.

    Very nice atmosphere with terrific views. The service was prompt, attentive, and polite. Nice menu options. The food entrée I ordered was overcooked (chicken). My wife's was cooked appropriately (salmon). We both ordered the same sides--greens an a pimento cheese wedge thing. The greens were tasty, the wedge not to my liking-different strokes... Accessing the restaurant was not exactly clear. It's located on the sixth floor of the newly built hotel. For a non-local, getting into the hotel parking lot was also not ideal. It's located in the middle of one-way access roads (one in, one out). That's no fault of the restaurant, just be aware if going there for the first time. When entering the hotel lobby to access the restaurant, I did not see clearly marked signs as to where it was located until reaching the elevators. Maybe it's there somewhere and I just missed it. The check-in desk was busy and I did not want to interrupt, prominent signage would be appropriate. Our experience was pleasant. Like most dining experiences, you pay a premium price nowadays. Our bill was $108 including gratuity for 2 people (1 starter-pimento cheese/baguette chips-excellent, 2 entrees/2 sides each, 3 beers). Overall, good experience and we may return again. The food, while good, was not exceptional. For me dining out is evaluated on three things: atmosphere, service, and the food. Bee and Butter ranked high in my opinion for atmosphere and service. The food was just okay and was not distinguished enough relative to cost in comparison to other available dining experiences in the area.

    We've been here two times. Both times, there was no wait (we had reservations), the wait staff(Serenity) was amazing, and the food was absolutely incredible. We have tried 4 entrees total and would have all of them again. We have officially named this is our favorite restaurant in the area.

    We had a delicious meal and fantastic service. I can highly recommend the Bee and Butter and in fact have already done so. We will definitely plan to return. By using the Open Table app we were reminded of our upcoming reservation, notified that our reservation was ready and given an opportunity to provide feedback. We had an overall wonderful experience!

    Customer service was excellent and atmosphere was terrific but the Entree of Catfish was not good experience for my wife. Bacon 🥓 was not good enough and food was not hot.
