this was the 1st time i had ever went 2 skybar and will be the last. i went there with some co-workers(police officers)4 of the people with me were drinking and 1 of them was not drinkin at all due 2 them being the driver . when i got there i paid cash for my 1st drink which was a crown and coke. the next time i ordered some drinks i ordered a crown and coke an 4 shots of patron. (shot 4 each person with me). i ordered that 3 diffrent times during the night. after the 3rd round of shots i totaly was out of it. everything went dark and quiet. i dont remeber a thing after that. after looking up the symptoms i had during the night all signs point that i was slipped something in my drink. after being a police officer a total of 7 years and working as a narcotics detective u can tell the diffrence from being drunk and drugged. well whats crazier was my card was swipped a total of 12 times for charges of $262. the following day after talking to the manager of skybar an telling him what happened and that i wanted a receipt of what was purchased. he said that was gunna be hard to do because they deal with so many people everyday. he said the waitress said she remebered me and my name and how many drinks i had that night....sounds kinda fishy to me that she would remeber so many details about 1 person. but i guess if i was tryin to scam him and his money i would remeber all the details so i could have a good cover story when that person called to complain like i did. the waitress said that after the 3rd round of drinks i bought that i started buying shots 4 everyone in the club thats why my bill was so much but from my witnesses that were with me said that was a total lie that i never bought drinks for anyone else. every person ive told this who know me knows that a few drinks wouldnt make me totaly not remeber a thing and be all out the box & not know whats goin on says the same thing.."dude you were drugged"..I dont recomend skybar to anyone. worst experince ever.

best view

Ok, where can you go to get incredible vocalist, an incredible view of the city and an owner that sings on Saturday nights with the bands-----that can sing........Skybar.

You take an elevator up umteenth floors, 10$ cover and your in with decent gear. The drinks seemed to be around 8-9$, but the service was fast. There are couches outside with candles and plenty of room to escape and just view the city. And of course, it's a penthouse view with tons of windows to see the city. The singers were incredible with soul that night. I think it's for the R&B community from all I can tell. Most people were dressed nice, kinda like business wear. I got in with a nice pair of jeans, collared shirt and dress shoes without a second glance. They advertise no t-shirts or sneakers, but jeans are fine. Try parking in the grocery store across, I think it's free. Otherwise you pay to park in the garage and there is a walk down to the first floor for the elevator. We had an awesome time!

Great place for singles and couples

My husband and I went on a Saturday night with some friends and we had a blast. I can't remember the last time I had so much fun. The drinks were great I will be back with more friends. This maybe our new hang out spot. But it would be best if you pay for your drinks with cash because there's an 18 percent gratuity that's added to all credit card transactions.

• Pros: Great view and very romantic
