This dining experience was our second night in a row where we had to return for another outstanding dinner. Regardless, of the appetizer, entree, and dessert your selection will be tasty, right size portions, and with presentation. The grouper is great especially if you order their sauce on the side. Being a fan of key lime pie - it’s in my Top 2 in the nation as the greatest I’ve ever experienced. Their tacos as an appetizer are great! And lastly regarding key lime, you must try their exceptional key lime martini. Amazing! Robert P. Rancho Cucamonga, CA

Escape Rooftop bar was an amazing place. What made the night was our server Amy. She was kind, accommodating and as I said to her, she was “my kind of people”. The ambience was incredible and the food was delicious. We are only here for a few days but will most likely make another trip up there!
