This place has the best views of Manhattan. Located in Long Island City in The FourPoints Sheraton Hotel. The food is very good for a rooftop bar and the drinks are made very well too. I would highly recommend this place for after work summer nights.

The Vista Sky Lounge is a fantastic place to get one of the best skyline views of Manhattan, at a real bargain compared to staying in Manhattan. The staff are courteous helpful and gracious. Would definitely go again.

This bar sits right on top of the Four Points hotel I was staying at. The view is just amazing - right now the bar lucky that there is really no skyscrapers that obstruct its view of Manhattan. The menu is fine, the people were not really all that friendly, but the location is just awesome. Of course - don't come here if you're in Manhattan, but if you're close by - this is where you need to get that cocktail!

During my visit to new York I came to this fantastic roof bar twice. The view of Manhattan and the bridge is really amazing and the staff are super friendly, so I just had to come back a 2nd time. The first time I came it was a Wednesday and I had no problem getting a table and enjoying the view. The 2nd night I came it was a Saturday and the staff were very helpful at getting us a table quickly, as we had no reservation. This night we ate food here and it was very tasty and reasonably prices (especially compared to Manhattan)
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice chilled night. Especially if you live or are staying around the Queens area. It was only 12 dollars in a taxi from astoria and was so much easier then going in to Manhattan.
My 3 friends and I are in our mid 20s and we had an amazing time here. The place has really good cool vibes and great music.
Alos, The manager there (I think his name caesar) was very friendly and super helpful and I'd like to thank him for the kindness he showed us.

I went to this place last night. It was my birthday and anniversary. We stayed at a nearby hotel and exhausted all of our restaurant options that were nearby. At a last minute attempt to find a place to get a few drinks I seen this on yelp and discovered it was only 2 blocks away from our hotel which was great because we were not looking to drive anywhere on account of us wanting to drink. Thank goodness for yelp! We went right to the rooftop and boy! What a view of nyc. It was gorgeous! We only had drinks but the food looked good. The staff was very attentive and really nice. Drinks are a bit expensive: more of Manhattan priced drinks but totally worth it for that view!

Fantastic View of Manhattan and the Queensboro Bridge. Great for dinner and a sunset. The lights of the city after dark also not to miss. Staff are top notch. Friendly and accommodating. Food is pretty basic but reasonably priced. I had the steak and salad. 20$. Good basics. Great place to unwind after a business day.

We pre-booked dinner as it was near our hotel. It was only after we arrived we found it was on the top of the building. The service was great the food was excellent and not over priced. The wine like most of the US is not cheap.
But the place come into its own when teh sun goes down and Manhatten lights up, you must have seen a postcard with this view on.

On 8/21/15 we had a wedding for our daughter. There were about 110 people in attendance. Without exception, everyone commented on the quality of the food, the excellent staff and the view, oh my what a view. Mr. MD Mannan, Director of Catering, was extremely attentive to our every need. He is professional, courteous, and efficient. We could not have been more pleased. This facility and the people who work there have our highest possible recommendation.

Is this place appropriate for teenagers?
Written December 30, 2016
It is a Bar and Lounge. If you do not mind the alcohol and adult conversations around your teens, then I think it may be acceptable. Appropriate would be a judgement call, but I think they have an age requirement after a certain time. There is a restaurant downstairs that would be more suitable for younger people.

Is it cool outside with fans in the hotter months? Are there indoor seating?
Written August 14, 2016
It was pretty warm when I was there but very comfortable. High up looking over Manhattan with a nice breeze. There was an indoor section with air conditioning but you would miss the spectacular views v
