RISE Rooftop Lounge

This is a rooftop bar located on the rooftop of the Westin Hotel. They have high-quality cocktails, beers, and a variety of food. I had California rolls, ahi watermelon noodles, and Cuban pork bites, and they were all satisfying. The best part is that you can watch the Disneyland fireworks while sitting down to eat. Please note that the fireworks start around 9:30 PM.

Came across this restaurant by accident as we originally had planned to go to Puesto. Due to Puesto's wait time, we decided to walk around. We weren't sure what to expect as we figured it would be your typical rooftop bar at a hotel. It was far from that. The prices are great as well. The view was awesome as you could see California Adventure, the food was amazing and the service was fantastic. Their happy hour menu offers great food and beverages. The margarita pizza was my favorite. I plan to go back and even make a stop before or after Disneyland. Highly recommend.

Rise Rooftop Lounge is an incredible dining experience inside Westin Hotel across the street from Disneyland. The ambiance is elegant and upscale with a stunning view of the Disneyland: Disney California Adventure Park. The food is incredible and I'm going to rate it the best food in town and best food at and near Disneyland Resort! The team of chefs created a gourmet dining experience using premium ingredients and sophisticated techniques. The new weekend brunch menu is creative and vibrant. They appeals to all the senses not just taste. This is a refined dining for a refined foodie. The food i ordered are: 1. Baklava French Toast with Challah Toast Filled With Baklava Fillings Topped With Mascarpone Cream, Fresh Strawberries, Pistachio Cream And Topped With A Phyllo Nest and A Real Honey Comb! This is a must try! 2. Prosciutto Panuozzo is like a Pita Sandwich on Fire With Fig Spread And Balsamic Vinegret. The entire sandwich was carefully put together, perfectly balanced with just the right Drizzle of Balsamic vinaigrette All of their savory dishes comes with incredible juicy tomatoes and grilled garlic with a potato balls. These side are absolutely unique and incredible. These alone are worth the meal. 3. Corned Beef Benedict is The Perfect German Breakfast Egg Benedict With none-traditional sauerkraut. The eggs on top are perfectly poached. I dont think i ever had a more perfect egg Benedict. Dont forget you can get mickey mouse waffles on the Kids Menu. There are not that many places you can get mickey mouse waffles at disneyland and near the resort. The Highlight of the meal was the table side Mimosa Cart where you can customize your own mimosas with REAL fruit juices like Pineapple, passion fruit, blueberry, and Mango. Every single plate has good portions. This is fine dining with wholesome servings. The service is attentive and kind.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently dined at Rise Rooftop Lounge, and it was an unforgettable experience! We had the luxury of being there for golden hour and witnessed a beautiful sunset that added to the ambiance. The views are absolutely spectacular, offering a breathtaking panorama of the amusement parks that can’t be beat. The tapas-style food was unbelievably good—every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. Make sure to book early; this place is incredibly popular for a reason! If you time it right, you can enjoy your dinner while watching the Disney fireworks light up the sky. It was a magical evening that I can’t recommend enough!

A HUGE shout out to Emily for making our meal there so special and making sure we were taken care of. My wife and I had wanted to make our trip (and her birthday) special since we were going to meet in California and picked this place for our special dinner. The location was absolutely beautiful and food was delicious as well. All members of the staff there greeted us and made it so much better. Definitely a great place for a date night or celebrations!

Great location to see the fireworks at Disney. Menu is limited but what is there is very good. Pizzas were delicious. Chicken wings were good although the price point is high for what you get. Great drinks menu. Uptempo environment with good range of music. Ultimately you go here for a great experience sitting on a roof top watching the fireworks and if delivers on this.

Such a beautiful place! Service was 10/10, the food was delicious, and the view was absolutely stunning. Can’t wait to come back.🍕🍸🥃✨️

Gorgeous views, couldn't stop admiring everything around our table. Large floor heating lamps for high tables as well as smaller table heating lamps, you'd expect it to be windy and cold but with the plexiglass walls and heating lamps its easy to be up there without feeling like your going to fly away. Tastey bar food; the San Marzano pizza was my favorite and the truffle fries with garlic aioli were to die for. We had the passion fruit martini had very good flavor but not as much punch as it could have been, still worth it. The tres leche ube cake was so beautifully plated with edible flowers, will definitely be coming back for more!

Rise Rooftop was a wonderful experience! You have a great view of Disney as well as the rest of Anaheim, and if you are dining with them a after 9, you will be able to see the fireworks show from Disney at 9:30 all from the comfort of your table or lounge chairs. Our server Emily was the best!! Tempura Hand Roll - 10/10, delectable Poke Nachos - 7/10 the chips were too fragile and got soggy pretty quickly, the ahi lacked flavor. I think if they added ponzu or any type of sauce to it before topping it on the nachos it would be much better Ube Tres Leches - 9/10 did not disappoint, it was sooo appetizing and the perfect dessert to complete our meal. It wasn't too heavy and was so decadent and moist. My only feedback is that it was perfect all on its own, I didn't like the mango or pineapple that came with it, it tasted like it was out of a can and wasn't flavorful at all, so we just moved it to the side and ate the entire cake Espresso Martini, Cucumber Margarita & Passionfruit Martini were phenomenal

My experience wasn't bad but the food is not great. There's a lot of good things about this bar so let me start with the good: 1. Incredible view into Disneyland 2. Fair pricing and big portions 3. Validated parking for 2 hours and easy to find 4. Attentive waiters and friendly staff 5. Had one of the best desserts in my life! Must order the ube tres leches if you're Asian and you don't like your dessert overly sweet. My only complaint is the food. It's very bland. The mushroom pizza was good, it passed. The chicken tacos were extremely bland even the verde sauce that came with it. The ceviche is not a ceviche... it was shrimp in margarita sauce. It had no lime or flavor to it. I was pretty upset by this dish. On the bright note, I may come back for just the ube dessert because it tastes really good to me. Soft cake, strong ube flavor, with the crunch of the macadamia~ perfection. The mango puree had too much fiber and was not in season so it didn't add to the dessert.

Rise Rooftop Bar is a must-visit! The views are absolutely stunning, giving you a great view of Disney. You can see the fireworks and world of color show. The ambiance strikes a great balance between lively and relaxed, with stylish decor and cozy seating. The cocktails are top-notch! The service was excellent, too! The staff was friendly, attentive, and happy to offer recommendations, which made the experience even better. If you're looking for a spot with great drinks, good vibes, and breathtaking views, Rise Rooftop Bar should be at the top of your list. I'll definitely be back!

Located on the rooftop of the Westin, Rise is a trendy cocktail lounge waiting for you to visit. With views of California Adventure and other Anaheim sites around, the spot is a trendy space to celebrate a birthday or enjoy a night out. We ordered the Loaded Hummus, San Marzano Pizza, and Poke Nachos - normally when you go to a trendy spot, you may expect the food to be quaint portions, but here, not only are the portions plentiful, but the food is tasty. We devoured what we ordered Our server was really nice, and I could tell he cared about the customers as I heard him asking the hosts to move current patrons to better tables since it was sprinkling. I definitely would come back. Thank you, Rise, for a great time.

A rooftop bar on top of The Westin Hotel close to Disneyland. Menu very small with a pleather of different culture choices. Menu offers appetizers and drinks. Vibes were on point with the DJ but music was not too loud to not be able to enjoy a conversation with your company. Food was delicious, service was good, our server checked on us a handful of times and gave no problem when my daughter wanted to change out her drink because she didn't like it. Restaurant close enough to enjoy the fireworks from Disneyland if you get your reservation at the right time. A must visit and do not skip out on getting the garlic fries.

RISE Sangria (White) - light - it's okay The Greek Pizza - not a fan of anchovies - interesting flavor San Marzano Pizza - tasty - good hickory flavor Prime Beef Sliders - bread is stale - beef is good Ahi tuna and coho salmon sashimi - good soy sauce - sashimi is not bad

Make sure to book a reservation if you want to be seated! Luckily my boyfriend and I scored some seats at the bar which was good because we wanted to have appetizers and drinks that night. The passion fruit martini was one of the best drinks I've ever had, I ordered it after trying a sip of my boyfriend's. My drink first drink, the tropical hideout was a bit strong, still tasty. You must try the passion fruit martini! Poke nachos were delicious. The view is gorgeous of course being a rooftop bar near Disneyland! The ambiance is intimate I'd say.

We celebrated our anniversary here and the view of Disney California Adventure is great. There's also 2-hour validated parking which is always a plus. We were expecting small appetizers but the portions were huge and really yummy for a bar. The chicken was a little dry. Poke nachos tasted VERY mayo-ey, take that as you will. I wish the chips were separate from the poke so that they didn't get soggy, it would've been way easier to eat this way. Crispy yukons were not crispy at all but still well seasoned. I wasn't a fun of the lemon crema, it tasted odd with the potatoes. We got a complimentary dessert which was super nice! Our server was so kind taking pictures for us in front of the view. My downside for Rise is that we asked when the Disney fireworks would start and they said it only happened on weekends during this time of year (we went on a Monday). We left the rooftop just for the fireworks to start right as we drove away. This was so so frustrating for us because getting a view of the fireworks was the whole reason we chose this spot for our anniversary and we felt misled.

We walked over from the convention center on a Sunday night and were told if we didn't have a reservation, we were out of luck. So we went to Open Table and made a reservation for Monday night. (Please note that both nights they had many open tables.) We arrived for our Tuesday night reservation and we were seated around a fire pit. Cool and comfortable but if we had wanted to eat, it would have been problematic. No worries, we wanted cocktails. Service was OK but a little slow. One of our party did order the truffle fries and they came out cold. The churros were a huge hit but the tres leche cake...not so much. I would go just for the view of California Adventure, but otherwise, I would pass. Also, don't ask to split a check.

We took a trip to Disney for our daughters 21st and as we were staying at the Westin where this is the rooftop bar - we headed here for dinner and a great vantage point to watch the Disney fireworks. What a blast - there was a DJ belting out some 80s and 90s music and we had great views of both the Disney and Anaheim fireworks! Our server was lovely and service was fast, friendly and on point! We began with some cocktails then order a bunch of different dishes - the cheese plate, truffle fries, poke nachos; sourdough bread, California rolls - portions were extremely generous and we had way too much left over despite our party of 7! Great night, food, service, music and memories

Went here for my brother's birthday. You'll have to turn into The Westin and park in the garage. Then walk into the hotel lobby to use the elevator. Note that there's no smoking allowed. Ambience was chill with fireworks from Disneyland across the street at 9pm-ish. A lot of space for big groups but we decided to watch the football game by the bar and ordered some drinks and food. Bartender was awesome and the food was tasty, came out of the kitchen quickly!

Food was decent, drinks were even better. This place has plenty of spots for photos! Be aware that the seating for small groups is around the fire pits (depending on what you are wearing, trying to sit and eat is a bit awkward). Luckily it wasn't busy and we got moved to a table!

I made a reservation for our anniversary dinner and we had an amazing time in a beautiful location! We enjoyed the Queso Fundido for an appetizer and the chips were seasoned and crisp, the queso was hot and delicious! The Rise has a beautiful view of Anaheim and Disneyland. There is a large bar area and a large dining area with beautiful views and seating all the way around. They also had seating with fire pits and a private party area as well. On Tuesdays they have a Margarita and appetizer special. We had a regular and a Passionfruit margarita and they were both very good. My husband also had a Moscow Mule, and although they don't have copper cups, he said it was very good. For dinner we had the Margarita pizza and it was delicious! Plenty of cheese and the balsamic drizzle was wonderful! The crust was very good as well. They gave us a special cake for our anniversary, but we also ordered the chocolate churro dessert. The cake was very good and so thoughtful, but the hot churros with the chocolate dipping sauce was amazing!! Our servers were excellent and we especially loved Rosie who brought our desserts! The prices were very reasonable as well. They were child friendly and had a great drink menu, with limited food items. The only thing to be aware of is if you make reservations on Open Table, you have a 2 hour table limit. We hadn't realized that, so the hostess told our server to let us know it was time for us to leave, as they had another reservation. Rise is perfect for a great evening out or special occasion! We would definitely go again!

Great food, drinks and service! The place was a perfect rooftop with a girls night catch up dinner. You also get the perfect view of Disneyland fireworks if you go one of the days there are fireworks. The only part that's a bit annoying is having to pay for parking. It validates your parking but you still do have to cover a certain amount.

Rise sounds exciting, doesn't it? This is a review of the place based on a Private Event I attended, so not indicative of an everyday dining/drinking experience. With that being said (yes, I am reading outloud as I type, deal with it), it was an awesome experience. First, thanks to our hosts for scoping this out and finding it. It was a short walk from the Anaheim Convention Center to the Westin hotel and a short elevator ride up to the rooftop. It's not Burj Dubai tall or anything, but it's good enough to get you away from the street and high enough for some cool views. This "overlooks" Disneyland which means it's a great place to see the Disneyland fireworks, which go off pretty much every night from Disneyland. For those who don't know, Disneyland is an amusement part which is right across the street. It's kinda popular, so keep that in mind if you decide to go on a whim. What made this 5-Stars for me besides the views was the incredible service from the staff. With lines of people waiting for drinks, it was managed well. They also had buffet/heat lamp food (I did not partake as I was full from dinner). The food looked good and others that partook enjoyed. And can I say, the old fashioned's were quite amazing. They had a nice flavor and each one was crafted beautifully with an orange peel and a cherry. And each of the 4 or 5 I had was consistent with the other. I'd go back for Fireworks and Old Fashioneds. Good place!

The rooftop restaurant promised a picturesque setting but failed to live up to the hype. The California roll lacked the freshness expected of a high-end establishment, tasting more like a mass-produced, refrigerated version. The truffle fries were underwhelming, resembling regular fries with an extra sprinkle of seasoning. To add to the disappointment, the service fell short of expectations. We waited for approximately 15 minutes after being seated before our server finally acknowledged us. Even after placing our order, we found ourselves repeatedly trying to flag down the staff for simple requests like water refills. In a nutshell, the experience at this rooftop restaurant was all sizzle and no steak, leaving much to be desired in terms of both food quality and service. The only positive thing I can highlight is the view, including the ability to view the Disneyland firework show from the comfort of our seats.

To preface, this place is expensive for what it's worth. Both the thai chicken wings and ahi poke nachos were $28. The nachos were surprisingly really good and was a much bigger portion than we were expecting. But the wings were very mediocre, definitely not worth it. But I guess we were paying for the ambience too. We chose this spot for a rooftop vibe and because it overlooks Disneyland, and we thought we were gonna see the fireworks but they didn't light them that night :( Overall it's the right kind of vibe for a night out but I don't think I can get over the prices.

After traveling all day (flying from FL to CA) I met my friends for dinner at the Rise Rooftop Lounge for Fiesta Tuesday. It was the perfect cure to jet lag!! We had an amazing experience!! The views were spectacular - we were there for sunset and it was absolutely stunning. The Fiesta Tuesday deals were exceptional. We got all of the specials - Queso Fundido ($11), Shrimp Ceviche ($12), and Chicken Tinga Tacos ($14). I forgot to take a photo of the tacos. All of the food was served at the appropriate temperature and was so good! We had 6 people and got 2 of each appetizer and we couldn't finish it all. We also enjoyed the $8 speciality margaritas - they were perfect! It was my friend's birthday and they brought out a special dessert for her! The server was fantastic and checked in on us and made sure we got our orders in during the weekly special hours. I wish I lived closer!! I would definitely go back.

Service, views and food are all amazing! Make sure there's no convention parties and make a reservation before you go because it can get crowded!

Such an amazing viewing of Disneys California adventure the food was delicious the drinks were great the staff is so friendly. Took my friends for his bday and he was amazing of the atmosphere and view they had great music and a nice view of world of color

This rooftop spot is located in the Westin hotel. It has awesome views of DCA. Our server was great. But cocktails and food were mediocre at best. My Ube dessert had zero flavor.

This lounge is at the rooftop of the Westin in Anaheim, overlooking DCA. The location is amazing - you can watch the fireworks, the back side of World of Color, etc. It's a great way to fit in some evening Disney entertainment in a fancier adult setting. They have both table and lounge seating which is nice. They also have a relatively extensive drink menu, but a pretty limited food menu. A lot of what's listed on the Yelp page as favorites are no longer available, so be aware of that if you're planning a dinner there and be sure to check their regular menu. Overall it's a nice place to stop for a drink and some snacks, but it's pricey and with the limited food options, not very child friendly.

Great place to grab dinner at sunset with beautiful panoramic views of Disneyland and Anaheim, plenty of seating, and a solid menu of delicious foods to share with friends. Service is excellent, friendly and fast. They have a good selection of cocktails and mocktails and the portions are HUGE! Pretty good deal, and parking is free with validation unlike the other rooftop lounges in Anaheim. My favorites were the fresh salads, baby Yukon potatoes that came sized for 10 people, lol, and the queso fundido. The pepperoni pizza was surprisingly really solid.

Celebrated our girlfriend's birthday here. The view of California adventure is so nice. The breeze was refreshing during this summer heat. When it got cool enough we turned on the heater next to our table. Hostess and servers were all nice. They made our drinks to preference. Our food came out quickly. We enjoyed the poke nachos, truffle fries, pizza, and wings! There was a DJ on a Friday night, the ambiance was perfect for a celebration! We truly enjoyed our evening and will be back again! Don't forget to validate!

First off--validate your parking! I totally forgot my ticket in the car, and it ended up costing me $58 for just three hours, which was pretty wild. But aside from that, I had a great time at Rise Rooftop for my friend's birthday. It's on the top floor of the Westin Hotel in Anaheim, and we got to enjoy Disneyland fireworks while the DJ played. The atmosphere is a nice mix of social and intimate, perfect for date nights or a small celebration. For food, I went with a mocktail, Rockefeller oysters, and shared a truffle pizza. The oysters were great, and they even came with little edible flowers for decoration (though I didn't really need them--they were just for looks). But the real star was the pizza! I don't usually get excited about pizza, but this one was sweet, savory, and had a perfect crunch. Unfortunately, I didn't snap many pictures except of the oysters, but I'd definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for a fun and relaxed night out.

I loved this place. The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and amazing. Make sure to make reservations, it gets busy and crowded. Mae was amazing, she was knowledgeable and very kind. We were celebrating a birthday she brought us a cute slice of cake and a glass of champagne. Being able to see the fireworks from Disneyland was so cool. We ordered the ceviche and it was delicious, as well as the pizzas and the queso fundido

Cute rooftop bar with amazing food! Came here to celebrate a friends bday. Service to put in orders was a bit slow since we were seated at the table on the side back but once the order was in food and drinks came out fast. Good place to chill and talk and catch up with company. They have heats and great view of Disneyland ferris wheel and fireworks if they have it that night. Make a reservation ahead of time!

I had a free night alone so I wanted to lounge somewhere where I could also work. I found Rise Rooftop was about a mile from where I stayed, so I decided to check it out. The Westin, where it's located, is beautiful upon entry. Lots of areas to lounge and work at, even the lobby bar was beautiful. I had to persist in my mission to the rooftop bar though! Once I arrived, they had just opened minutes ago, but their tables were fully booked for the night. Only the bar had open seating, which I luckily grabbed right away! The bartenders were very nice and accommodating, and even served up some friendly conversation. I ordered an espresso martini, which they took the initiative to put in a cocktail glass instead of a martini glass due to high winds potentially tipping it over. I also ordered ahi tuna nachos. These were absolutely delicious!! The chips had the Asian shrimp chip texture (it was not shrimp chips though) The pricing was a bit high, but the portion was enough for 2-4 people. The view of Disneyland was awesome!! I stayed until the fireworks, which everyone gathered around to see. Felt like a party with strangers! 10/10 would go if you want a good vibey place.

Came here for dinner with some friends while we were in town for a conference. It's so cute! The food was great, the service was competent and friendly and the views were great. Unfortunately Disneyland didn't have a fireworks show the night we went, but Rise would be a great place to catch the show while eating dinner. They ah e a great outdoor bar with some big TVs if you'd rather watch a game instead.

We originally came here for some drinks but decided to try some food items out and it did not disappoint. Rise has an amazing view no matter where you are seated and we were able to see Disneyland's firework show. The staff were so friendly, but our waiter was the best. I wish I got his name because he was so attentive. I can't wait to go back!

We went there on a Friday and it was crazy busy but luckily we had reservations. Loved the ambiance and their little dance floor with a Dj playing. The crowd was mostly on a younger side though. The view is amazing and the best part is being able to be so close watching the fireworks in Disneyland. The service was also good even though it was really busy. The food was very average though. We ordered oysters, truffle fries, ceviche and pizza. The fries were really good. The oysters were covered in a salty and spicy powder which took the taste away. The pizza was not so great but the ceviche was good. All together it was worth the view, the music and the fireworks. The michelada was ok and their wine is very limited but I saw others ordering some interesting drinks.

This is part bar/restaurant and part dance club depending on when you arrive so it may be loud. It's a great place to watch the fireworks. They have heat lamps but we visited on a cooler night and loved the breeze. The bartenders make quality cocktails. There are some unique one on the menu but our bartender was able to make exactly what we were looking for.

The drinks and views were great, service was decent, but food was very mediocre. This rooftop bar has very limited reservations and such high reviews, I was so excited to finally get the chance to try it out. Since I had high expectations, I was left disappointed. Food & Drink Consensus: My friend and I had the Thai popcorn chicken wings and the shrimp ceviche. Both dishes were lacking a ton of flavor. The breading on the wings was nice but the wing itself tasted like nothing. I tried it with the sauce and the sauce didn't have any flavor either. It tasted like I was having a plain chicken wing with some mayo. The shrimp ceviche was lacking lime, jalapeños, and cilantros, everything that a good ceviche needs. I think they need to get the ratios right and season the chips with more salt. I would not recommend any of these dishes. It's overpriced and underwhelming. For the drinks we had the passionfruit martini and the mango margarita. Thank god these were good because it is a bar. Flavors were on point and the amount of alcohol was nice. The drinks were visually appealing which I appreciate. Overall, I would come back to just have drinks and enjoy the fireworks/nice view. I wouldn't go out of my way to make a reservation again though. I would completely avoid the food after my experience.

Every time we're visiting Disneyland I try to make a reservation and can never get one. Luckily this time we were staying at the hotel that the restaurant is on top of and we decided to go up and check if there were any tables available. There was only room at the bar, but I had my little sister with me so we needed a table. Luckily a table opened while we were there! This is one of the most beautiful rooftop restaurants I've ever been to. You have a perfect view of Disney California adventure. If you're sitting at the right table or couch, you can't even see the some of The World of Color show. It does get a bit breezy so they have plenty of fire pits and heaters. I even seen two ladies with a blanket! The food was very good. We had appetizers and drinks. I got a charcuterie board, my sister got the queso & chips, and I got a very pretty cocktail. We enjoyed our food and our view of the show. There was also live music playing by a really good guitarist! We got some warm tea to end our meal and they even allowed me to take the mug back to my room since we were staying at the hotel! I absolutely love this Westin. Definitely worth a visit.

Decided to celebrate my family birthday dinner here since it's always been on my list and it was easy to make a reservation for a party of 10+ on open table which was great. I was so nervous because we ended up taking the wrong turn and getting into the Disneyland parking making us late for our reservation but one of our parties got there first and said the server was really understanding and nice about the situation. The place itself is located on the top floor of the Westin hotel. Parking is free for 2 hours w validation from the restaurant. The atmosphere was great you get to see the sunset and the views of california adventure. We tried the margherita pizza, poke nachos, charcuterie board, and california rolls. All were amazing my favorite was definitely the poke nachos and california roll for sure. The drinks were delicious I had an espresso martini which was just the perfect amount of sweet and caffeine in a glass. Our server was super sweet we were able to bring an outside cake and have them store it in their fridge and bring it out later and even gave us a candle too. I live close by to it so i'll definitely be coming again

Great service by our waiter named Q. Overall impressed with the food, beverages, view, wait times, seats/tables, and music/DJ. Our reservation time was 6:15pm. Upon arrival the guests were in t-shirts and shorts, which was an initial turnoff, but as the evening carried on, a more upscale crowd arrived.

loved the ambiance here! from the live dj, rooftop views, food and drinks, lots of people celebrating different occasions, it was overall a fun setting! also the perfect place to catch the sunset and watch the disneyland fireworks too! 'poke nachos': ahi tuna itself was okay, wasn't expecting super fresh quality, but the overall flavors and dish as a whole was still good and I still enjoyed it! 'michelada oysters': oysters were on the smaller side :( but they were still fresh, creamy, and they weren't too salty. comes dressed with michelada sauce! 'san marzano pizza': loved the different flavors, with prosciutto, mushrooms, arugula. it had a slight sweet component to it as well which I really liked. good option to share for the table! 'pepperoni pizza': pretty average pepperoni pizza.. 'chicken tinga tacos': comes with four tacos and this was pretty filling! I was scared it was gonna be dry, but it actually wasn't and I ended up really liking it! for a rooftop bar, the food here isn't too bad! worth checking out if you plan on celebrating something!

We visited Rise Rooftop Lounge for my wife's cousin's 16th birthday, and while he couldn't drink, we all enjoyed the stunning views of the Anaheim skyline. The hostess let us know there's a 15-minute grace period for reservations and a 2-hour max from when the server greets you, which was helpful. Unfortunately, we missed the fireworks due to an earlier reservation, but we did notice quite a few empty seats when we left, despite the hostess saying they were fully booked for the fireworks time. It was odd to see the bar side packed but our side only about 80% full--possibly due to fire safety or weight limits? The service, however, was fantastic! Our server was super attentive, keeping the soft drinks coming and making sure everyone was happy. I wish I remembered his name, but he really made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Where I dock one star is the food situation. It tastes amazing, but they have a rotating menu that changes, and the menu online didn't match what we were given that night. As a picky eater, I was relieved to find something, but for those with allergies or more particular tastes, I recommend calling ahead to confirm the menu. The food is mostly appetizers, which are shareable but not very filling, and the prices are high for what you get. After several rounds of wings and sliders, the kids were still hungry. Rise Rooftop Lounge is giving corporate Friday night vibes rather than a birthday celebration. That being said, the views and service really make this place worth a visit, especially if you're looking for a chill night with small bites and drinks. Just keep in mind, if you're looking for a more substantial meal, you might need to look elsewhere or prepare to order a lot.

We had a good time here but we were like the only ones there except for another couple, so it wasn't a good night (Thursday) to socialize. We also thought the prices were a bit much for what we got. Our service was good though. The view was nice. We only had a couple appetizers that were mediocre.

Went for a date night and the ambiance is fantastic with great views. Our server Trino was amazing. Great with recommendations and attention to service. I was very pleased with the chocolate martini and artichokes.

We had a reservation for 7:15 and it was fairly quiet but as it got later the rooftop got packed. There was live music which was awesome. Drinks were pretty good and reasonably priced (espresso martinis were tasty). Good was good but a little on the pricier side. We got a charcuterie board with meats and cheeses and it was good but at $38 I may try something else next time. My husband got the popcorn wings($27 I believe) he said they were tasty but would have preferred boneless. The view is amazing from the rooftop, perfect city view and view of California Adventure (prime viewing for the fireworks) and the staff and servers were awesome too. For sure make a reservation and check it out if you are in the area or staying at the Westin. Perfect place to grab a drink and relax and a wonderful view

BAD SEAFOOD BAD SERVICE BEWARE So much to complain about...Food took forevers and when it came it was not hot. Our waitress kept disappearing on us. We ordered lots of appetizers and some of us got sick that night. I don't know if it was the oysters or ceviche but it was NOT FRESH. Only pro here is the view of the Disney fireworks but don't even bother. The staff here are selective on who gets good service and good seats. I saw clear signs of favoritism to non-asian patrons. Jonathan needs to be fired he has no idea how to speak to customers, how is he in a manager position?! When we told him about how long the food took he made excuses. Bartenders were friendly but everyone else meh. If you want to see fireworks for free go to the PIXAR HOTEL ROOFTOP it's at downtown Disney and it's not crowded, they don't have an extensive menu but way better service. I will never recommend Rise to others. Hope management reads this and better train their employees.

Great food, service and amazing rooftop views. Not many food selection options. More like finger foods. It's more dedicated to lounging and drinks. Music was very low and could barely be heard amongst the conversations people were having.

We made reservations for 7 PM and we got seated immediately upon arriving. The place was mixed with young people, older people, families, and business people. Very young at atmosphere refresh you would think that it's cold up there, but there are many heaters throughout the roof rooftop area. Our food was brought out right away. They were very attentive. They were very helpful and recommending tricks to us and then the fireworks went off and then the DJ started playing so all in all it was a very good night just know that at 11 PM they close and they essentially kick everybody out ha ha ha But still it was such a good night. I would totally recommend you reserving a table at 7:30 PM because you're only allowed to be on the tables for two hours and we made the mistake of reserving our table at seven so at 9 PM. The next reservation was to come in so we lost our perfect view of the fireworks. Oh well for next time we know!

Food great, ambiance amazing, cocktails are delicious and be sure to ask for Adrian! He took care of us at the bar and made sure our experience was extra special. Great mixologist who knows what he's doing when he fixes you up a drink. Only downfall is, the place is so popular that even on a Tuesday night you need a reservation. You can get lucky like we did and snag a seat at the bar but best to just make yourself a reservation. We didn't stay long enough to see the fireworks which is my only regret coming here. TY Adrian! You're the best!!

Great ambiance! Beautiful view with 2 hours of validated parking. When you make the reservation, keep in mind that you are only allowed to stay for 2 hours so plan accordingly. Food was pretty good and service was great. They are receptive to adjustments made. We ordered the San Marzano pizza, passion fruit martinis, queso fundido, and the mango margarita. Mango margarita tasted more like tequila than mango but the passion fruit martini was great. Overall, it's fun to come at least once for the nice view and ambiance!

Our server was super cool, funny, and pleasant. This place is beautiful with amazing views of Disney. Drinks taste really good! The mock-tail tastes so good you don't even miss the alcohol

Beautiful view of Disneyland and the fireworks! I came here with my friend my unexpectedly. We orginally had reservations at Parkestry before getting recommended this rooftop lounge. The host and hostess at the front could definitely work on professionalism. There were a couple groups crowding around but no one seemed to be checking in. The host and hostess was eyeing me and my friend but did not attempt to catch our names down. They were talking amongst each other until we came up to the desk and still did not acknowledge us until another couple came in. Despite that first impression, I wanted my friends to have a good time. The food was actually pretty good! We ordered the spicy tuna on crispy rice, as well as, the chicharrones nachos. We also ordered the dessert flight, it was average but the plating was beautiful. The ambiance of this rooftop lounge is quite relaxing. The music is pumping, the sound of 50 conversations, and laughter. I would recommend to try the unique finger foods they have to pair with your cocktails.
