Drinks are mostly good, although the Clarified Ramos was really bad? the orange blossom was so overwhelming that it straight up... tasted like perfume. I eventually diluted with ice and even water, still not drinkable. What a waste of a $22 drink. Servicewas pretty slow, even on a Wednesday evening. The way their tipping system is set up is a scam imo. Apparently everyone isusing Toast nowadays and force you to choose a tip amount while the waiter/waitress is watching. Their lowest default tip is20%, and that?s calculated AFTER TAX, which I only realized afterwards. So really it?s minimal 27% tip!! That?s justridiculous. Probably not going back again. Sad ;( Read more

The views and location are the best part about Blue Owl. The drinks are fairly pricey for what they are, but if you're just... going for one or two on a warm evening, it's a nice experience. The food is really good, I recommend the ceviche and thefritters. Read more

The cocktails here were all very delicious. I had the Nise no Hato and it was the most refreshing cocktail I've ever had. The... vibes are excellent and the rooftop seating is very nice. Can't wait to come back again Read more

Seating area isn't great. The chairs are a bit unsteady and the table is kinda smaller than what you would expect. Though they... don't have a lot of food options, the food is usually pretty good. The chilly plate comes with a lot of chillies. Definitelyneed 2 or more people to finish it off. They have a decent number of wines for selection, unfortunately the one we ordered wasout of stock. Ended up ordering a Cabernet Sauvignon which was pretty good. The view from rooftop is pretty good. Read more

Definitely pricey, but friendly staff, complex drink offerings, and great views from this rooftop bar. Worth a quick stop in for... a drink. Read more

A great find in Cambridge! Our service was good. A little slow, although it was not very crowded. Drinks are great. Food is ok.... Our food was cold but tasty. Only reason I will not give 5-stars is the rooftop "hostess" , "floor manager" or whatever hertitle is was EXTREMELY RUDE. They do not take reservations and our party kept growing. She was NOT happy about that and actedaccordingly. Thank goodness we had an amazing server, Leah or Lily. Excellent view of Central Square, Cambridge. I have visitedthis establishment 3 times and each time brought more friends with me. I will definitely visit again but surely avoid the angrylady who seemed to run the outside rooftop area.

Rooftop bar in Cambridge - a rare find! Drinks were tasty and pricey, ask for the one in the panda glass. To enter, you have to... go upstairs from the dial (sister restaurant). My main downside is for how big the tables were and how loud the music played, itwas incredibly hard to hear convos. Other than that, amazing servers! Oh and the roasted Brussels sprouts were super saucy.Maybe too saucy. Read more
