Enjoyed our time - mainly because of the views, the music, and the drinks were pretty good. The service wasn’t the best. Also, may be false advertising (?) But the signage says for happy hour that the craft cocktails were $7, so we were excited to check that out, but it turns out only the well drinks with a mixer was in the deal, so we were a bit disappointed

Stayed here for about a week and tried this place twice. Crab cakes were some of the best I ever had. Beer taps were out of order so had to have cans or bottles. Great service from the bartenders. Bring a jacket because it is windy up there. Would definitely go back.

Food & drinks were outstanding, but the service was top notch. Laura was positive, efficient, and made her job look easy. She was the only person handling all the tables at sunset so it was very busy, but she did it with grace. I commend her for her work ethic.

I had my rehearsal dinner here on 3/1/24. The coordinator Sarah was so sweet and accommodating. The price per person to host a partial event was amazing for the location. It is truly a beautiful place with stunning views. The food, drinks, and deserts were great as well.The only complaint was that we were promised they had heaters if it was chilly. On the night of the dinner it was kind of chilly and my guest were cold. When my planner asked the night of staff for the heater they stated they did not have them. This is the reason I give the service 3/5 stars. Other than that the night was amazing.

This was SO much better than the restaurant next door. Good food, good service, good music all 3 nights we stayed.

Good drinks with a great view. High above and wonderful view. Relax and sit back while enjoying a few good drinks. Only area for improvement is on the service side. I can see why it is recommended for a sunset.

Can't say for sure if the food is good because we didn't eat here but it is definitely an awesome spot to meet friends for drinks and an unbeatable view. Really great spot whether you're local or visiting!

Truly had the best date with my man here on Valentine’s day. The staff accidentally messed up part of our order, so they gave us another round of drinks on the house. Then, my boyfriend (6’5 big guy) finished his meal so quickly, they gave him another plate. On top of that, it was so cold outside, the staff brought me a blanket to wrap around my body. I can’t make this up! I told all of my friends & family about this place immediately. Food was amazing, best staff ever, & nicest Valentines date experience. The live music was also great and the atmosphere was peaceful & romantic. Can’t wait to come back. THANK YOU. ❤️

As a seasonal resident, I've been here several times over the past 2 years. Beautiful view. Great atmosphere. Consistently under staffed resulting in poor service. Inconsistent mixed drinks - order beer or wine to avoid disappointment.

I attended the Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce Christmas Party this year at Vista at the Top. As an ambassador for the chamber, this is definitely a place I recommend when you are on the South Gulf Beaches in Pinellas County. The view on the rooftop bar is amazing. We were able to see a beautiful sunset overlooking the water. The staff was present and helpful with the amount of people that showed up. If you are looking for a new rooftop bar

I wanted to find a wine bar in that area, and this recommendation popped up. Now, I didn't read everything carefully so I didn't know it was on the roof of a hotel. Which meant, you had to go through the hotel lobby, into the elevator, and up onto the roof. Well, it was totally worth it. Really beautiful, rooftop bar, comfortable with great views, and really good service. On Friday evenings, they seem to have live music as well. The guy that was playing with the guitar that one evening, he was really good, played some really great 80s and 90s songs.the food is not necessarily the best but the drinks are good and interview is stellar.
