    Perfect! Service, food, view, and the lovely Christmas music made for a perfect meal. Very creative chef, and had a server that demonstrated the ART of warm service. Those of you skeptical of finding a culinary gem at a hotel, I recommend trying Polaris.

    We had a great time and the experience was amazing ! Antoinette was our server - I had read good reviews about her and was hoping to have her …. And guess what the lady who introduced herself was no one other than Antoinette !!! She was very nice , very respectful, and gave us detail information about the menu and described the dishes very well . She took our pictures and kept us in great spirits !! What an evening 👌 We thank her and the staff of Polaris for making this evening a very memorable one . The manager Chelsea was awesome too . Would love to come back for more evenings !! Highly recommend people to celebrate at Polaris !!

    The Polaris was an absolute EXPERIENCE. The elevator ride to the top floor was exhilarating! At the top, we were warmly greeted by the host and escorted to our seats. All the food was delicious (the swordfish and the steak were our favorites). The environment was amazing, the view was exquisite, and the staff exceptional. The chef and servers went above and beyond to give us an experience of a lifetime. We'll definitely treasure the memory of our first visit to the Polaris. Can't wait to go back (definitely getting that swordfish again)!

    Rude waiter, talk too much. Made several comments about the food and finishing plates vs not finishing plates (measuring quantities). It’s my birthday and I finished my plate and shared, yes. My guests did not finish and was asked why, yet nothing was done after being told the veggies were bad. Never measure other peoples pockets nor amount of food eaten, that is disrespectful.
