   Service was great! Guy manning the elevator was not - very condescending.

   I didn’t really expect much since I’ve only watched the Gossip Girl series once, but even though I liked how they gave us one pretty cool mocktail that allowed for a pretty awesome picture, the rest of the food felt very poor. The food tower took around 45 minutes until it got to our table, and they were just some simple and small sandwiches, a croissant and a few macarons. I went with my girlfriend and I would’ve definitely preferred just to get the cocktail, a few pictures and then order something else from the menu. Also didn’t seem like they really cared that we were there to get the experience, it felt like they were doing us a favor even though this cost 50 dollars per person.

   I definitely enjoyed the gossip girl cocktails, as well as the beautiful view. The service was not great, but it also wasn’t bad. Me and my friends had a great time. It was very convenient. Everything was clean. I definitely will go back in the summer for the gossip girl experience and I still highly recommend for New Yorkers and visitors. Food was good!
