Loved my first visit to the Skylon Revolving Restaurant in Niagara Falls, Ontario.

The filet mignon was done to perfection; falling apart tender with the nice compliment sides.
The Ontario wines were very nice and complimented each course wonderfully.

The service was professional, approachable, welcoming and informative. The prices are reasonable for the quality and presentation of each course, and budget for a nice not-every-day experience: a nice location for a special occasion or one-time visit.

The revolve is slow and plaques along the windows provided interesting tidbits of Niagara Falls history and trivia.

There is no charge to "ride to the top" if you have a reservation... I recommend booking in advance and request a window-side table. However, all tables offer great views.

I will visit again.

It would be nice if there was a drinks lounge to grab a beverage and snack with a view from the floor to ceiling windows.

Lots of parking, also walkable from the Fallsview hotel/casino area or via the WEGO Blue Line.

Enjoy!
Amazing dining experience! Absolutely incredible views of the falls. If you visit Niagra Falls, whether on the American or Canadian side, having dinner here will definitely complete the Falls experience. We made reservations weeks in advance with the request for a window seat, which we got. I would highly recommend doing the same. The restaurant is huge and was very busy, even on a Thursday evening in early April. Even so, once we got out of the elevator, we were seated pretty quickly, and almost immediately, our waitress greeted us, explained the menu, and took our drink orders. We got our drinks pretty quickly, even with half of them coming from the bar (a martini and an old fashioned). When she delivered our drinks, she took our food order. The food came out relatively quickly, less than 10-15 minutes, considering how busy the place was. The food was great. All four of us in our party were very satisfied. Good sized portions, perfectly cooked, tasty, and hot. I absolutely loved my steak. One teen son got a steak and it was gone in no time, so I assume he liked it too. The other teen son got the veal steak and wiped that out quickly as well, said it made him love veal and want it more often. My wife got the Chilean sea bass and said it was one of the best she's ever had. My wife and I also got a glass of wine with our main courses, and all four of us got desserts after dinner, too. Their creme brule is excellent! Now, granted, you will pay a lot for the view and dining experience. This was one of the more expensive dinners, but since it was a family vacation and our anniversary, it was so worth it. The wait staff is absolutely incredible - prompt, knowledgeable, courteous, and on-point. The facilities are immaculate. Despite it being very busy and a bit on the loud side, the atmosphere is one that could support a variety of occasions - romantic, family, or business. If you're in the falls area, you owe it to yourself to go here. So worth it.
Amazing view, wish the food was better for the price paid. Early dinner 430pm for 3 and drinks total with tax and tips, about C$260
Excellent service staff, Salmon and stuffed chicken were the best, meat not great, dessert was a bit of a cake dough at the bottom, covered with foam, does not deserve its fancy name. Wine was very good. Includes free ride up the elevator to observation deck.
The view was absolutely amazing, the staff was awesome. The food was flavorless, overpriced, and undercooked. There were also very loud and obnoxious children whose menus, food, and table contents ended up on our table after being thrown, dropped, or placed there. Neither the parents of the children or staff did anything about this… I am not unreasonable in understanding kids will be kids but I paid nearly $200 dollars for 2 meals and 2 drinks and neither the food of atmosphere was good.
So the whole dining room was in motion, spinning around slowly for you to have a 360 degree view of the city, which was very nice.
What you didn’t expect, was their tourist trap photographer that just kept asking to take photos of you, printed it out (yeah, weird) and asking you to pay CAD $30 a piece. Since they already printed out, what do you expect, as you wouldn’t want random people to be the owner of your photo, right? Never seen such an easy sales like that before this!
Their foods were so so, we were not impressed. But the portions were huge!!!!
After dinner, you can go a floor above to go outside and have a better look at the fall.
Skylon Tower Revolving Dining Room offers a unique dining experience with breathtaking views of the surrounding area. The rotating restaurant provides a constantly changing panorama, adding to the ambiance. The food is decent, but it's the view that steals the show. However, the service could be improved, as it can be a bit slow at times. Overall, it's worth a visit for the view alone.
I've been here 3 times - once by myself, once with a date, and once with my family. Every time was splendid! We had great service, delicious food, and amazing views. I'm very surprised to see the lower reviews on here. Perhaps I was lucky, but I've been to quite a few places, so while I don't consider myself too picky, I know poor service & quality when I experience it. Not a problem here!!
We love it ! Celebrated our anniversary in a legendary premium revolving dining restaurant and savour world class continental cuisine .The food was worth its cost and service was welcoming . The best Anniversary celebration !Revolving Dining was a one of a kind exceptional memoir .We’re stoked of the restaurant’s silent rotation about 360 degrees every hour, given us a constantly changing vantage point. They said It’s estimated that more than 125 km are viewable from the dining room. It indeed was the most breathtaking view in all of Niagara Falls.Stunning!Truly Amazing ,very intimate ,cozy ,great ambience and We really enjoyed our dining 775 ft above the falls .Celebrated Dining Extra Ordinary Experienced!

Delicious food with a variety of salmon preparations. The attentive service, especially from Angel, and the manager Jeff's friendly conversation added an enjoyable touch to our meal. Angel even kindly recommended the ginger ice cream, although we had indulged in so much meat that we didn't want to burden our stomachs further. One minor suggestion would be to introduce a greater variety of vegetables. This place is undoubtedly a carnivore's paradise, but a bit more dietary fiber would be a welcome addition.

Surprised to have been treated so poorly by such a highly rated restaurant, I ordered the steak with bri, I ordered it well, it came out rare but you couldn’t tell by all the garnishing on the plate and the terrible lighting in the place. The server Erika at first was like really it’s how you ordered it, I had to explain the difference between rare and well, I then waited 40 min for the replacement plate i was ready to send it back, but just felt uncomfortable and wanted to leave at that point, no manager came to see the table and nothing was done for the inconvenience, my party and I ate a different times and the experience was ruined. Will not recommend to anyone, much better places locally to visit with better service.
This food is amazing good. Best food ever. Everything I ate was super delicious. I am coming back in 2 days. Thank you for my dinner. Stephanie thank you.
It was such a wonderful night! thanks to Nikki who’s really accommodating and exceeded our expectations! My family had a blast! Im so glad I celebrated my birthday here. Will be back again for sure with my family and friends very soon!❤️

Such a hidden gem and so glad we found this place! It was very welcome amongst all the chaos of the main part of town. Our waiter was fantastic, and very patient with questions. We enjoyed learning more about the restaurant’s venture. The food was fresh and delicious - both the veggie and meat options. I particularly enjoyed sampling Canadian cheese!
The food is amazing and they offer a nice variety of choices. Everything is so fresh and delicious and the restaurant is extremely clean. The service is outstanding. Our server Angel was very attentive and pleasant.. she made our dining experience enjoyable. Love seeing the robots as well- they seat customers and deliver food.

An incredible experience, well worth the money!
We had a group of 9 and got a private room which was beautiful, not to mention the live music.
The service was great with friendly staff and great bonuses, such as an amuse bouche before the meal and great bread for the table.
The food was incredible, most of their food is straight from their very own farm.
The appetizers in my opinion were the highlight of the night. The maple hot smoked salmon candy was easily the best, but followed closely by the heirloom tomato salad (it had incredible compressed watermelons).
The entrees and deserts were quite good as well just not as amazing as the apps.
Overall an incredible experience worth the roughly $150 total price tag.

This restaurant is attached to the Sterling Inn and offers prix fixed farm-to-table meals only on their menu.

Overall the food was fantastic and service attentive. Our Server Emily was the best, noticing something was off about my experience and insisting on replacing my over-salted fries without me asking. She also took time to ask us about our evening plans and offered us great suggestions, such as fireworks over the falls which we did not know about.

Foodwise, the Lamb shank we had was incredible. Tender, succulent and essentially fall of the bone. This was the best dish of the night by far. Other dishes were good too, carrying a complex layering of flavour due to the variety of farm fresh ingredients they used.

The AAA beef flank however was a disappointment and am deducting a star for that. Very chewy. Could not cut it with the regular knife and had to ask for a steak knife. Still very difficult to slice and eat.

Because I was staying at the Sterling Inn, I was given a voucher for a free glass of wine from 5-6pm. It was a nice touch right before my 6pm reso.

I enjoyed my meal here and would like to come back in the future. Thanks for a wonderful night

An enjoyable dining experience. Most of their ingredients come from within 100km of the restaurant, and it presented in some more unique dishes, like their rabbit. The dinner was a three course, choose you own adventure tasting menu.

My one critique is that the cocktail shakers are so loud that it kind of echoed through the dining room, but otherwise it was a fantastic experience!
The best buffet I've ever been to so far. The food quality is up the charts. Everything had a distinct flavor and was beautifully presented. I went during July, so some of the food was Canadian themed. Let me say they hit the limited dishes spot on. The atmosphere was delightful, and made me feel like I was in a fancy restaurant. The food options were so many. From sweet maple bacon ribs to tangy chicken to mild green beans, even the dessert and ice cream section presented endless options of decadent flavors. The service was great, and the servers were nice. I would definitely come here again if I could!

We had a terrific anniversary dinner at AG last week. We ate there 6 years ado and the food has improved! Every part of the Prix Fixe meal was delicious and well executed! Appetizers of lobster bisque and beet salad with house smoked veal tongue. Entrees we’re braised Ontario lamb shank (Ontario has THE best lamb in the world!) and the entree was sausage stuffed saddle of rabbit wrapped in prosciutto. Both were amazing. The desserts and cocktails were also fantastic. As before, the service is impeccable and the room is intimate and has a glamorous private club atmosphere.

Absolutely amazing fine dining cuisine. Farm (their own) fresh to table. Temps were perfect .... literally EVERYTHING was perfect. Food was explained in detail by our waitress Melanie. She gave excellent service and made it a unique experience. We had the salmon and beef carpaccio for appetizers and they were both unique and delicious. Our main courses were the tenderloin and scallops and omg were they perfectly done and a unique mix of flavors. Definitely the strawberry shortcake and rosemary creme brulee were an excellent end to our meal. This is just an incredible menu and mix of flavors you won't regret trying.

What an amazing dinner we had!
It is a bit of a challenge to find quality food on the strip, and we're happy to have the restaurant recommended.
The server was knowledgeable and pleasant.
We had a lovely Cab Franc wine from the region, which went well with all of our dishes.
