Heading to the top in downtown

Thanks for S. Irene Virbila’s review [“Takami’s Visual Feast,” Aug. 30]. Between the prices and the so-so food, I probably won’t bother going there (and I work down the street).

For a party atmosphere and a view, the Standard’s rooftop bar works well as a place to take visitors. But I take out-of-towners to the lounge at the top of the Bonaventure. It has reasonable drinks and it’s not usually crowded. A bonus: It revolves so you can see the entire city.
