Service was terrible and my food was cold when it arrived. The restaurant was not packed so there was no excuse for the terrible service. The food is brought up via an elevator, the food is exposed and not covered/protected from germs

We arrived only to discover that the Skydome wasn’t rotating. Something was broken according to staff but it was not disclosed on the website. We could have gone lots of other places for a better meal but the experience was what we brought family to enjoy. The view is spectacular even though only half the party could see it. The food is no better than good but expensive for merely good. No specials or even soups in the winter. Service was friendly but a bit erratic. Probably won’t try again .

The dome wasn’t rotating that night. The waiter was over loaded (he was very nice) and the food was mediocre. Overall I would have chosen another place. That all said the view was amazing

Went for my birthday..the view and the ambiance is beautiful,however…we went for the 360 views and the rotator was broken. They need to let customers know that upon making the reservation! The service is slow and the food is mediocre. Then to add insult to injury one of my friends got sick from the food! Last,they said they validate parking but when 2 of my friends got to the gate they had to pay $25 to get out! 2/10

The food took over an hour to arrive. The turning floor was broken and I think the food had small portions and just wasn't that good for the price. The view was stunning but I'm just not sure I would return.
