Review of VAGA Restaurant & Bar

First off - the view here is incredible. I would eat here only for the view. Parking is validated but still $14 since it’s a restaurant inside a hotel. We were excited to try a top chef contestants restaurant. I will say the service here was subpar - especially for the cost of the menu items. I’ve been to less costly places with much better service. Everything on the menu is marked for gluten free which is wonderful. When making reservations they also let you indicate other allergies from a checklist. We went for a particular dessert which they didn’t have but they did have two other options that weren’t just ice cream which is nice. The dessert was just OK. My main dish was good but just good - not spectacular. The server/food expediter didn’t even confirm that it was a gluten free dish which I would have expected since they ask you when you make reservations. Perhaps my expectations were just too high for this restaurant.
