"It’s pretty much impossible to hate a rooftop bar, and the appropriately named Rooftop Restaurant & Bar is no different, with its retractable roof and heaters for those nights when it’s a bit chilly. It can be a bit busier in the evening, with locals wanting to enjoy those views of downtown Walnut Creek, but it’s worth dropping in if you’re looking for a nicer spot to eat and drink. Rock the small plate menu with some lettuce cups or go all-in with a ribeye if that’s what you’re feeling; meanwhile, the signature cocktail list is lengthy, but mules are the way to go with five different options to enjoy." - Dianne de Guzman
