Price Description

Blue punches brighten up this small rooftop patio atop the Novotel. Barbecued fare is the raison d’être, ranging from chicken entrées to vegetarian kebabs. Depending on one’s penchant for spice, patrons choose from chimichurri, teriyaki, jerk or honey-garlic sauces. An unlimited salad buffet lessens the carnivorous guilt. Those craving a decadent finish opt for flaming barbecued pineapple and banana with chocolate brandy sauce. Mains $12.95–$31.95.
