Rooftop @1WLO

Such a great chill spot. Continuous happy hour. My bf made reservations here not realizing they only served appetizers and drinks. Instead of leaving to find another spot for dinner we just got multiple appetizers. Everything was so good! Will definitely visit again. Great views and ambience🤌🏾

I can’t say enough good things about Jamie here! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with genuine smiles and top-tier service. Not only are they fast and professional, but they also know how to craft a perfect cocktail—whether it's something classic or a custom creation.
The energy behind the bar was amazing. You can tell they love what they do and it makes the whole atmosphere that much better. Attentive, friendly, and incredibly skilled—these bartenders made our night unforgettable.
If you're looking for great drinks and even better vibes, this is the place to be. Cheers to the team! 🍸

My friend and I decided to visit this place on a Sunday night. We had so much fun, from drinks , food , music! I will come back! I love the happy hour drinks and food menu!! ✅

I booked a reservation for me and my friends for my bday celebration. Nikki was communicative and responsive to any questions I had prior to reservation and during my stay there. They brought a sparkler out. The food items were really good despite the minimal options, even the fries were seasoned well. All the drinks were amazing and even were able to work with server to make a shot similar to something I wanted with the ingredients they had. I believe Kylie was our server and she made sure that we had a good time. The DJ was playing a fire playlist. This rooftop has such a good view in Fort Lauderdale. I’ll be back again sometime, we all had a good time!

Came here one night on a destination bachelorette. Such a vibe. Amazing view on the rooftop setting. The drinks were amazing and the service. The food is why I didn't give it 5 stars. Wayyyy over priced for just decent quality food. VERY small food portions (tapas) so don't go there hungry.

The restaurant was fun. This can be a great place for a celebration. The space is big and nice. The service was fantastic and the atmosphere fun. The rooftop has a big bar. Private areas for parties. A good DJ. Space for moving around and dancing. It is a fun spot. It also has a great view of the city. The parking is all around. There is a small lot next to the restaurant, north side. There is a public garage right behind the restaurant and another public garage a block away. The happy hour was great. They had good specials on drinks and bites. The guacamole chips were good. I had a good time here.

Serena did an amazing job, was very attentive and sociable. She showed us a great time, made delicious drinks, and the happy hour deals were spectacular. 10/10 recommend visiting

This rooftop bar is an absolute gem. From the moment you step onto the rooftop, you’re hit with stunning panoramic views, a laid-back yet vibrant vibe, and a perfectly curated atmosphere that balances upscale with unpretentious. But what truly elevated the night was Mae — the bartender extraordinaire. Mae wasn’t just pouring drinks; she was creating an experience. Her energy, attention to detail, and personalized drink recommendations were top-tier. It’s rare to find someone who can make a busy bar feel like a one-on-one experience, but Mae did exactly that. Every cocktail was crafted with care, and her vibe made everyone at the bar feel like a regular. If you’re looking for a spot with killer drinks, breathtaking views, and unforgettable service, this rooftop is the place — and make sure Mae is behind the bar. You’ll be talking about it for days.

We visited Rooftop @WLO for the first time on a Friday night without reservations, and it turned out to be a fantastic experience! Upon entering the building, we were greeted by a friendly bouncer who checked our IDs and directed us to the 7th floor via elevator, where the bar is located. Once upstairs, a staff member asked if we had reservations, but since we didn't, they directed us to the bar area. Although there were no seats available at the bar, we ordered cocktails from the menu using free drink coupons given to us by our apartment complex--only needing to leave a tip. The bartender was incredibly fast and prepared our drinks quicker than I've ever seen. Not only was the service swift, but the cocktails were also exceptional in taste! As we explored the rooftop, we found an open table that seated 8-12 people, which seemed to be the only area available without a reservation apart from the bar seating. Luckily, we snagged a spot and enjoyed our time there. We also took some great rooftop photos with stunning views of the city in the background. The atmosphere was lively with a live DJ playing excellent music, adding to the vibrant vibe of the evening. Overall, a perfect spot for drinks, great service, and unforgettable views!

WOW! Already booked four seats for the next dinner, everything was amazing. Chef Lindsay was incredible and her staff is A+, after having some of the best food my husband and I have ever had we went up to claim our complementary cocktail (nice touch by the general manager) to Rooftop and had a blast! I wish they would do a better job advertising this place, if our friends hadn't told us about it we would have never found this Fort Lauderdale gem. Can't wait to be back next month!

First time there meet an old middle school friend from out of town. We arrived for happy hour. They open at four pm. There is valet parking available in the parking lot adjacent to the restaurant and pay by app is available for the street. The entrance can be easily missed if not paying attention. You will take an elevator up and as the doors open we were greeted. We were early but can see the need for a reservation. Drinks and service were spot on reasonable prices. Will definitely be returning.

Downtown Fort Lauderdale's first-ever rooftop bar, aptly named Rooftop @1WLO is a lounge-and-light-bites concept situated on the seventh floor of the One West Las Olas building. The 4,000-square-foot open-air patio transports patrons to a garden in the sky, elevated seven stories. Though open and spacious it can get crowded. There are great views to the East and the North, but to the South, you're just looking at the side of a taller building, and to the West, no view as the Rooftop Var faces East. I had a Dewar's Scotch and soda which was of an average measured pour, but decent enough. I also had a taste of their "Into the Sunset" signature cocktail comprised of El Tesoro Blanco Tequila, Cherry Heering, and Passion fruit, which was delicious and refreshing. For food, the Rooftop Bar only offers a limited number of small plate bites like flatbreads, beef skewers, empanadas, and tacos. Overall, Rooftop Bar is a fun place to visit, friendly and spotlessly clean.

Amazing service from Jaime, best bar in fort lauderdale. Amazing food, drinks, atmosphere, and service!!!

Jamie is the best! Great bar good atmosphere and shots are better than CJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great place the food a drinks were amazing , my friend enjoyed every moment of her amazing night .

Worstt food experience I have had in Florida. Seriously just bring yourself to chilis you'd find a better meal. Ordered a charcuterie board and their pickled fries with a blackberry margarita. Margarita was fine no complaints but terrible board, strawberries still had dirt on them too? Fries were so filled willed with oil and crispy its like you're paying $10 for thick chips. I really had high hopes and still thought I went safe with my meal, but it was overpriced and just soo dissapointing:(. On a positive note, make your way to casa blanca cafe if you need a good meal and beautiful atmosphere.

Went to this rooftop for a girls day and it was beyond my expectations. Everything about it was a 10/10. The food was absolutely amazing and the drinks were top notch. Had a few plates to share and into the sunset cocktail. The music and views were great. Cant wait to be back!

Jamie and Jordan are the best bartenders you can ever have! We love this place because of them!!!

My friends brought me here for my birthday. A weekday night, so it wasn't too busy. Parking in the lot was $10 up to 4 hours. An elevator takes you to the rooftop. Very pretty décor & lighting. And a variety of table setups. DJ'd music which was dance/club music. No charge for the table if we drank at $35 worth of drinks. I had their Manhattan which was very good. My friends asked about anything for my birthday & it was only a sparkler for an extra charge. The waitress was very nice. But evidently hesitated to give my friend a printed receipt? Later we found out why. They automatically add gratuity of 18% and didn't inform us of that prior. Not only that, they added the gratuity AFTER tax!!! So you're also paying gratuity on the tax amount!! Again nothing was said! Unfortunately my friends did not know and we paid 3 gratuities!!! Cash & 2 charges to the credit card. BEWARE OF THAT! Otherwise a pretty nice place.

This place has a nice view, they served good drinks and the music was good, what I didn't like is that it's too small and was a lot of youngsters trying to impress, I think this place needs to be more exclusive. Even though we had an amazing time.

Had a blast here one night. Drinks were good vibes were high and the view is great. Dope spot for a date or meeting up with friends. Service was friendly and quick. Defs coming back.

Jamie is a beast!!!! best bartender ever!!!! the ambiance is great!!! will come here again

Drinks are on point , service is very friendly and a tentative. Shout out to Jaime and Sernena were awesome !

For a work trip and checking out the Rooftop. This rooftop space was great, the staff were not so great and the patrons were even worse. We didn't eat here, just drinks for a work pub crawl. They had a great list of cocktails for us though. I tried the Violet Sky. (Grey Goose vodka, violet liqueur, blackberry & sage). It was refreshing! The interactions I had with bouncers were not near as bad as conversations with the guys on the rooftop. The consumers were very forward and had hotels nearby. This wasn't my plan for the night, but if you are looking for "fun" while in town... check this place out. It felt like a "meat market". The view from the roof was stunning and it was nice being able to feel the breeze on a nice night.

I really enjoyed the ambiance at this rooftop bar on a recent trip to Fort Lauderdale, went without reservations after a nearby dinner and as it was a Sunday night it was not too busy and no cover charge! Great drinks but expensive as the views are very nice from the rooftop esp at night as the city lights up, service was ok,they seemed understaffed but they were nice ,they do keep your CC to hold your tab. Can't comment on food or snacks as this was just for cocktails .The vibe was a mix of young and old and the DJ played all my fave 90s hits! I would return here on vacation as I love a good roooftop bar whenever I travel!

I love coming here! The music, atmosphere, and overall energy is such a vibe! Their cocktails are also delicious and reasonably priced. The bartenders are quick, efficient, and attentive. Doug and Jamie are super welcoming and make coming to Rooftop and experience. 10/10 will recommend for anyone looking for a place to celebrate, girls night, night cap etc.

Was surprised it wasn't more crowded on a Saturday afternoon, great ambiance, friendly bartenders, and good music! The food was great also, we had the chicken tenders and the flatbread. The dough was really good on the flatbread, soft on the inside crispy on the outside! The espresso martini was not the best I've ever had-- they used canned coffee/cold brew so maybe that's why. Everything else was great

Good service, quality drinks. Apps were solid. Although not many options for drink or apps. Ambience is tremendous with solid city views, good music and a variety of seating options. Enjoy this one!

Jordan is awesome. rooftop has the best drink and service!! great atmosphere. make sure you ask for the violet sky !

Great happy hour spot for drinks and small plates. Service is friendly and attentive. The only downside is it is very hot in the summer, they could use a few more fans. Besides that, this place is a must-visit in downtown FTL.

The food was pretty good. My favorite was the Dorito tenders. The baked Alaska was delicious but I'm not sure what I ate. It definitely was not meringue. Delicious nonetheless though. The service was awesome. The atmosphere was really nice and despite it being really cold, was pretty cozy. My friends loved their drinks. The only thing is that one comment said that the empanadas went down in quality.

Girls Sunday brunch day was soo much fun here. The staff was so attentive and really made sure our mimosas never stopped flowing. The food was delicious we ordered two rounds. The dj really kept the place popping. The only down side there were literally no men at all. Aside from that the view was breathtaking. We had a great time, can't wait to go back.

We have been meaning to check out their happy hour for a while and we finally did. The restaurant is located atop an office building at the intersection of Las Olas and Andrews, so a security guard greets you on your way in, and points to the right elevator to take. The rooftop bar and lounge is located above Las Olas Boulevard and the New River. The open-air patio is like a garden in the sky, surrounded by panoramic views of Fort Lauderdale's majestic skyline. The Rooftop lounge features an eclectic setting surrounded by lush natural decor in a swanky, laid back atmosphere. We got three happy hour bites: Bulgogi skewers - Average to ok...not great marinated flavor...3 per order. Margarita flatbread-Good tasting and crispy crust. The best of the three. Shrimp tacos - Average to OK....smelled odd a bit....3 per order. Nice server made our experience very comfy and relaxed.

After a few appetizers and drinks at Timpano, we headed over to the Rooftop. A short wait in line and we top the elevator to the rooftop. The place has a good energy, and was full on a Friday night. We had a couple drinks and walked around a bit. The Old Fashion was very good. The tables were only available with bottle service. They have a few fire pit tables to gather around. Overall, a solid place to grab a couple of drinks and cool night breeze.

Nice place nice atmosphere and music. So good Love this place Wanna come back again

I went with a friend for drinks. We had 2 "Into The Sunset's" each & they were so good! It was strong too, literally snuck up on us. The service was cool, everyone was nice and made sure we were okay. It wasn't too busy on a Thursday night. The music was decent, the DJ played some hits. The scenery was the perfect cherry on top. Seeing the city lit up from the rooftop was really aesthetically pleasing! I gave 4 stars because I want to experience it on a more lively night!

Low key, high vibe! The bar bartenders make amazing drinks and everyone is very personable. Good crowd of people! The music gets you going and makes you want to dance! Make sure to add this spot to your go to place when visiting or going on an adventure in Ft. Lauderdale!

The vibes are high in this place! The food was yummy and so were the drinks. Beautiful views and great service. Look cute, have fun, and take pics! They had a dj and were showing the game.

Food and service was amazing!! Shout out to Justin, Douglas and Gordon. They were awesome!! Nice view from the top

Everyone looks good. Nice view, nice decor, good food, good service, good music. Everything you want in a rooftop is there

Offers Awesome views of the downtown Fort Lauderdale area! Even if you're here for a short while it's highly worth it and their bar is fully stocked with lots of options. Something new which I enjoyed was their option to create my own old fashioned. The music was good and they played a variety from hip hop, pop, rnb, and a lot of hits.

This is such a cute place!! It's so nice!!! The fooood is amazing!!! So so so good! We came here for brunch and had chicken empanadas which were delicious and than the bulgogi which I forgot to take a picture of, was absolutely delish! And the French toast was so yummy aslo! Can't wait to come back here as the vibes were littt

Tonight we celebrated my nephew's birthday and we decided to go to the Rooftop bar! Wow!!! Our server, Clarissa was amazing! She made our nite extra special. She was so friendly and made us feel like we were her only table. I'm a server myself and I appreciate excellent service and Clarissa did not disappoint. Can't wait to go back. The place had a cozy ambiance, but with a fun atmosphere with a dj playing all the current hits. If you have never been, I highly recommend this spot and don't forget to ask for Clarissa!!

Whenever a friend or family member come visit me this is place is a must! The view from the Rooftop at night is stunning and the service is great. The drinks are strong, good & creative. The music is a whole vibe.

Been here a few times and it's always a vibe! Looking out on the city and just having a great time! Staff is always friendly! Highly recommend making a reservation especially on weekends

Exquisite Cocktails, Stunning Views, and Top-Notch Bartenders - A High-End Downtown Gem! I've had the pleasure of visiting this place multiple times since I live in the area. Let me start by saying that the cocktail experience here is simply spectacular. The old fashioned they serve is possibly one of the best, if not the best, in Fort Lauderdale. The bartenders are true masters of mixology, always satisfying the most discerning spirits enthusiasts. In addition to the fantastic cocktails, they also offer some delectable tapas. Though the menu isn't extensive, it's perfectly curated to complement the delightful cocktails they offer. The setting provides a beautiful nighttime view, situated right in the heart of downtown Fort Lauderdale. The ambiance exudes a high-end party vibe, akin to an outdoor lounge. Now, let's talk about parking. It's a bit of a downside as it shares a public parking lot with The Wharf, which can get crowded. If possible, I'd recommend taking an Uber for a hassle-free experience. Around 10-11pm, there might be a small line due to the controlled entry through the building's only elevator. While another elevator would be great, it's the only one available at the moment. Although I don't have any photos to share because I'm always having such a great time, I promise to snap some during my next visit and update this review. In conclusion, this place comes highly recommended for an outstanding cocktail experience and a captivating atmosphere in the heart of Fort Lauderdale's downtown.

Such a great place. It's pretty and has a great ambiance! Whether you are warming up your night or laying low, Rooftop is awesome. The staff has always been really great and the location really speaks for itself. The crowd is super eclectic but seems to be most popular with late 20's to early 40's. Definitely recommend if you are visiting Fort Lauderdale! It's a fun local place on las olas

Arrived at 4 for happy hour on a rainy Wednesday. Had the whole place to ourselves. The bar crew were friendly and made recommendations for drinks without hesitation. The ambiance is relaxed but not so casual that you'd wear flip flops and shorts- think business casual with notes of night club flair. Jalisco cooler was my drink of choice although I did try an Into the Sunset, a little sweet for my taste so I went back to Jalisco. We tried a few things on the menu, the potatoes and the beef skewers not pictured here were incredible. One note on the beef skewer, request a knife or use your hands to break into smaller pieces. These juicy chunks are not meant to be eaten in one bite. Pictured here are the top floor tenders, they were so crispy and flavorful; truly wonderful with the dipping sauce. People watching was fun as well. There was one tv on at the bar showing sports but with no volume on so all you could hear was the music being played at the venue. Bathrooms were clean but could use some design sprucing - they pale in comparison to the venue it self. Between the both of us we had 8 drinks and 3 shareable menu items for a total of $130 with tip included. A little pricey for a happy hour but all in all not too bad considering the location

Ambiance is beautiful at night. Enjoy with friends the food was delicious. Beautiful scenery.

CJ - he's the only one you need to see. The best bartender east of the Mississippi. Charming + attentive (but not TOO attentive), and sharp as a whip. Thank me later.

Great food, drinks and ambience, perfect for any occasion, must check it out, great for early evening happy hours.

Came to the rooftop bar for happy hour. The bar upstairs is very cool. We chose a seat by the side to be able to look out. My wife loved her drink and was very pretty. If you are into old fashioned, this bar is very unique. You choose your bourbon or tequila and then completely customize from there. For the sweetness you can do the traditional simple syrup or something funky, I choose blackberry and sage. I choose orange bitters and wanted it smoked. The drink came out in a large skull full of smoke and was poured over ice in front of us. My only complaint was we got the skewers for an appetizer and it was tiny. The chimmicurri was amazing, but it was only 4 small pieces. Prices for the drinks were reasonable for the atmosphere

We had such a great night out this past weekend at Rooftop. I've heard of this place before but never had the opportunity to visit. We started off the night at a new secret speakeasy across the street at the Hyatt Centric and decided to extend our night and walk over to Rooftop for a few drinks. They are located in the heart of downtown Fort Lauderdale across the street from Hyatt Centric and a block from The Wharf. As you walk in the front door, you will be ID'd (wish we would have been but NOPE...lol) and then you proceed to the elevators right beyond that checkpoint. That will take you up to the 8th floor where the Rooftop bar is. As soon as you step out of the elevators you are at the Rooftop bar. Good music, great lighting and a great view of Fort Lauderdale's downtown skyscrapers awaits you. You immediately feel the upbeat vibe. We arrived at about 9:15PM and got right in. When we left at approx. 11PM there was a line outside to get in. The drinks were all good and the staff was friendly. There are a couple of parking garages nearby. I recommend checking them out.

Really cute rooftop, great for date night. Food and drinks were good and reasonably priced. Music was great. Staff has really good customer service. Definitely will be back.

Lovely space with great views and the dj is always solid. Good bartenders as well. I would reserve a spot if you have a group or are doing a date.

Rooftop is such a freaking vibe! In order to get here you have to take an elevator, but baby once you get to the top you will really take in the atmosphere. It overlooks some of the buildings in FTL & the gust of wind will hit your hair & you will really feel like your in another place. It' gives me a cosmopolitan type of vibe and i'm so here for it. The dj is lit and plays the bomb hits of today! The drinks are delightful as well! They have some of the most delicious cocktails! Moreover the servers are super friendly! I will definitely be back! This establishment has been Tamied ®

Jamie and CJ local legends quite literally the life of the bar without them this place would not be the same.
