Food: Overcooked, uninspiring mess

The Omelette Station, despite a variety of toppings, lies in the shadows of a lackluster menu stuck in 1997. The Crab Cake Appetizer, not fresh and removed from the menu, has resulted in all-round disappointment. The final nail in the coffin comes with the overcooked Steak Filet - a petit filet turned 'well-done' disaster. Reviewers consistently complain about food being 'bland', 'mediocre', 'disappointing', or 'overcooked'.

  • Low Quality

    Salmon not fresh and tasteless, leading to a disappointing experience.

Vibe: Surprisingly romantic ambience

In the midst of culinary chaos, Circa 55 manages to maintain a charming vibe. With a comfortable setting enhanced by the modern, stylish decor, the ambiance is unmistakably romantic. It even acts as a perfect backdrop for lively conversation, enhanced by trendy, modern decor and some really spectacular pool views.

  • Great Ambiance

    Romantic, comfortable setting with modern, stylish decor enhancing the atmosphere.

  • Bad Drinks

    Coke was flat, rum and coke sent back, drinks overpriced, poor service

Perks: Astounding outdoor, appalling service

Circa 55 has mixed reviews when it comes to perks. The outdoor seating, beautiful and spacious by the poolside, contradicts the chaos that is the parking situation – costing guests $7 even with validation. The service also swings widely from excellent to disengaged, leaving guests wondering what to expect.

  • Easy To Reserve

    Hostess courteously seated guests without reservation, ensuring a positive experience.

  • Okay For Diets

    Unique menu with good quality but would like more options.

  • Bad For Groups

    Experience for big groups hindered by the long wait, occasionally crowded.
