2-Star Review of Bertie’s on the Rooftop

The atmosphere was great, but the food was honestly disappointing. Service was friendly, but slow in all areas from drinks to food and later, dishes. It was well over an hour to get our food which was ordered at the same time as apps. We ordered the rooftop ceasar salad and spinach artichoke dip for appetizers. Would not recommend either, lacking flavor—the spinach artichoke dip was runny and especially bland, although the homemade chips were good. Was almost more like a soup with full spinach leaves in it. I ordered the ribeye, which again, was disappointing at the price point. Honestly struck me as a $25 steak from a local diner, marked up to $60. The salmon was good but very small portion. Lobster mac & cheese side was probably the best thing we ate all night, large chunks of lobster and decent flavor, although still just a bit bland. I really wanted to love this place, but my birthday girl and I both felt the same way after leaving, the food just wasn’t even close to matching the atmosphere and price.
