Agreed--Rise was a primary reason I liked this property. They even had a dessert wine that they'd bring up from the restaurant for me because it wasn't on the Rise drink menu. Nice service. Even if eating downtown (e.g. Del Posto) but not staying at the RC, I'd still go there for a drink--and introduce others to it.
