Cocktails were solid, especially the peach old fashioned. The atmosphere is very modern/mid-century and would be a great view during the day, but was there at night so didn't get much of a view. Made clear that we have to use the QR system, which isn't great, but isn't horrible. Did not order any food.

Beautiful, but beware the QR ordering system. I just wanted a beer and sat at the bar. He was helpful and said he could handle the payment, but he just took my card and entered my details on an iPad as if he was buying shoes using my card. Really strange, but I'm gracious that he helped. The QR-only system is a HUGE turnoff & mistake by someone, but if they fix that then it's a beautiful bar with a great view. Beers are expensive (>$12 for a pint)... but that's DIA.

One of my favorite new airport restaurants in years. Food is good, cocktails are great, decor and atmosphere are fun. Price is a tad high, but fair value compared with most airport fare. The bartenders seem to hate the QR ordering system as much as many of the reviewers on here. It's really not that bad...

The food was amazing. I give absolutely no fault to the chef, however, the wait staff are hit or miss, and the QR code system is terrible, to the point they need to do away with it. I travel for work, and receipts are gold. I tried to use the QR system, but then was approached by a waitress who handed me a menu. "Great!", I thought, I prefer to order from real people! Nope. After I decided what I wanted, she handed me a tablet to order on via the QR system anyway. Um... okay. So I did. At one point, you have to enter your email or phone number to validate where you will receive your receipt. Did that. Great. Got a notification via email a tab had been started, but then no receipt ever came. My account was charged though. I order the steak with chimichurri sauce, it was fantastic, the potatoes were spectacular, and the haricots verts were even somehow elevated, but that no receipt means I will not be visiting again.
