Nice to have done this - great views - expensive - as everything seems to be. You are there - so why not do it. More

We treated ourselves to this rather expensive dining experience and loved it. Well appointed revolving restaurant with amazing views of the Falls and all around. Food was excellent with overlarge portions and staff were courteous and helpful More

My friends and I enjoyed the breathtaking views of all of the Falls and surrounding area. We did not have dinner there, but it is worth the admission for the observation deck! More

Delightful spot for all photographers! Great view of the falls and Niagara Falls. Best time to come at night to observe the lighting of the falls and the fireworks. More

This place was awesome. A bit pricy though. I am not a big eater and they do not have small portions or allow you to share a meal. That was the biggest drawback to this place. The views from the top were amazing. More

The view from the Tower is great. We were able to take a photo of our reflection in the windows with the reflection of the Falls. Turned out very well. More

We didn't eat there but paid to go up and look out the observation tower. We choose to go at night to see the falls lit up...It was cool to be so high up but we were so far away the pictures didn't turn out that great. Maybe we should have went during the day. The price to go up... More

Had Brunch at the buffet. What can I say - it was a buffet. The view is wonderful and trip to observation tour is free if you eat there. Service was so so. Expensive for what you get. More
