My boyfriend who is a chef and I, foodie, this was the best eating experience we have ever had in our lives. we were celebrating his birthday which happened to be valentine's day and a day in which C&S offered an AMAZING 'tour' of their food. our minds were completely blown so much so that we woke up thinking about our experience this morning. We cannot praise this restaurant enough. we have never in our lives seen such brilliant service. We will return again and get it again. As a matter of fact , we're going to nosh on our leftovers now! Special, SPECIAL acknowledgement to brilliant, expert server extraordinaire, Nayyah. (Please forgive any misspelling) . ♡

A Perfect Valentine’s Dinner with an Unforgettable View! My Valentine’s Day at Sun Dial Restaurant was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and breathtaking panoramic views of the city. The atmosphere was elegant yet cozy—perfect for a romantic evening. The food was absolutely exquisite. Every dish was crafted with precision, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. From the appetizers to the main course and dessert, everything was flawless. The wine selection was also top-notch, pairing perfectly with our meal. What truly made the night special was the ambiance—soft lighting, a gentle rotation that gave us different views of the skyline, and impeccable service that made us feel like VIPs. It was an experience we’ll never forget. If you’re looking for a romantic dining experience, especially for a special occasion like Valentine’s Day, Sun Dial is the place to be.

The spaghetti and meatballs were absolutely delicious, full of flavor and perfectly prepared. The halibut was good, though it was slightly overcooked. The highlight of the experience was the waitress—her professionalism and training were evident in every interaction, making the meal even more enjoyable.

Wonderful experience! The ambiance was very nice and the service was phenomenal. We were there at the end of lunch, but my husband wanted a steak. While we were willing to settle for the lunch menu which did not include steaks, the server was very accommodating and came back to offer my husband the opportunity to get a steak. This made my husband's first experience great! Thank you!

Food was great and the service was awesome. The manager came to check on us whick was a nice touch
