My husband & I made an advance reservation for a special evening with drinks and lite bites, while enjoying the sunset at this upscale rooftop bar. We had read the reviews & were looking forward to a classy, relaxing evening with wonderful views of BA. When we first arrived there was easy listening music being played on the sound system, but about 5 minutes later, the volume was turned up very high & a DJ started playing club/dancing type music that did not fit the atmosphere, the clientele or an upscale location. We could hardly hear each other talk & it was not a relaxing. I mentioned the music volume and genre choice to the manager, but nothing changed. We noticed several couples get up and leave only an hour into their 2 hour reservation windows and assumed they felt like we did. We both ordered a total of 2 drinks each, but decided not to order food because we were not enjoying the loud, dance club music that was being played. We asked for our bill and also left early, before our 2 hour reservation window was over. For perspective, our ages are 57 & 65- still relatively young & we still know how to have fun dancing/partying, but this was not what we came to the rooftop bar for. What we would say to the management is to know your clientele, understand why this location is visited & have the environment reflect that.
