The Best Places to Eat and Drink in Walnut Creek | Eater SF

"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

A Delight This restaurant transcends the ordinary, offering a truly delightful culinary journey evident in every dish and drink. Shrimp Vodka Rigatoni: Prepare for an explosion of flavor. The rigatoni, generously coated in a velvety, rich vodka sauce, provides the perfect canvas for the sweet and succulent shrimp. Each bite is a harmonious blend of textures and tastes that will leave you craving more. Crispy Fried Cauliflower: This isn't your average vegetable side. The Fried Cauliflower achieves a perfect golden crispness, delivering a satisfying crunch with every mouthful. Served alongside a thoughtfully crafted dipping sauce and vibrant fresh herbs, it's a flavorful and surprisingly addictive dish. Braised Short Rib Masterpiece: The Short Rib is not just a dish; it's a visual and gustatory experience. The slow-braised meat, boasting a deep, glossy glaze, promises fork-tender perfection. Accompanied by creamy mashed potatoes and crisp-tender green beans, it's a comforting yet elegant plate. Mule: Quench your thirst with the Mule, a vibrant and refreshing cocktail that looks as good as it tastes. The bright hues and thoughtful garnish of an orange slice hint at the tropical flavors waiting to tantalize your senses. Though I felt the alcohol content was on the lower side. Beyond the exceptional taste, this restaurant clearly values the art of presentation. Each dish is thoughtfully composed, demonstrating a commitment to creating a memorable dining experience for every guest. With a diverse menu showcasing both classic favorites and innovative creations, there's undoubtedly something to delight every palate.

Went today on a date with my boyfriend, our first time being here. The stars alone say it all, the view was great, the atmosphere was fun, and the food was yummy! I will only note that while they have heaters for the balcony seats, I personally didn't feel the heaters at all, today in particular was windy ( I regretted not bringing a sweater) and of course the temperature outside is at no fault to the restaurant, just something for future patron to keep in mind,not you get cold easily like me, just bring a sweater for just in case even if you end up not needing it. But everything was great despite the chilly air, we'll hopefully come back in the future!

I have wanted to come here for a long time. It was a last minute opportunity. The hostess was kind and accommodated my party which I appreciated. The food was just okay and the service was just alright. On weekends, they charge a mandatory 20% gratuity which makes me think since servers already know they’re getting that tip, so there’s no need to try. The food we ordered was the chicken karaage, vodka pasta, wedge salad and rib eye. In my opinion the best dish was the salad, which had a hair on it but they replaced it. This place is probably better for suited for those who want to experience a cool night life with a few cocktails and light on the food.

Only tried their drinks and appetizers which were both really good. Spent hours here just talking it’s definitely a comfortable place to chill. We got seated by the edge which was nice because you can see the street view.

Such a great spot in Walnut Creek! The rooftop vibe is super chill, the food was really tasty, and the cocktails hit just right. Plus, the view? So good perfect place to hang out, especially around sunset. Definitely coming back.

The food and the service were both good. Truffle fries with mussels and clams is crispy and has satisfying truffle taste compared to other truffle fries.

My overall experience at Rooftop was pretty decent. However, there was some miscommunication before we arrived. I had spoken with someone on Instagram about bringing a large group, and they made it seem like it wouldn’t be an issue. But when we got there on Sunday, 1/12, for our leopard-themed women’s event, we learned there were specific rules for large parties. According to the manager, Allie (if I’m not mistaken), we would have needed to pay extra for a private room, and we couldn’t be seated until our entire group arrived. Despite the initial confusion, Allie was really accommodating and handled everything well. In the end, about 10 of us showed up, and we were seated at the long table near the door. Due to the restaurant’s staffing limitations, any additional guests wouldn’t have been able to sit with us. Aside from that, the experience was great—the ambiance and atmosphere were fantastic, and we had a good time. The food was delicious! I only had the cauliflower, but it was seasoned perfectly and absolutely fire. Everyone in my group enjoyed their meals, and everything looked amazing. The drinks were also really good! I had the cucumber drink, which was refreshing, but I think it could have used just a pinch more alcohol for the price. Big shoutout to our waitress she was cool and checked on us regularly. I highly recommend Rooftop!

decent rooftop bar/restaurant. Even though it's offers a clear and unobstructed vantage point, there isn't much to see in Walnut Creek. They have nice staff though.

It was our first time at Rooftop. My wife and I stopped there for lunch on our way home from San Jose. We ordered the fried cauliflower appetizer, I had the wedge salad with blackened chicken, and she had the Chinese chicken salad. Large, generous portions and everything was delicious, from beginning to end. Probably the best wedge salad I've had, and I've had a few in my day. Carlo was our server and he was five stars also. Friendly, knowledgeable, always aware of our table, just a tremendous professional and yet friendly server. We were so impressed. We'll be back next time we're going through Walnut Creek.

First time here and Victoria was absolutely amazing!! Fast friendly service. We had everything we needed. Ambiance was nice. The lighting was set right. It was just loud! View was pretty it's fun being up higher than street level. Food was delicious. Oysters were pretty good. Not the best I've had but definitely better than most places. The scallops were melt in your mouth delicious omg soooo good. Will definitely come back again thank you Victoria for a great experience to end our valentines weekend.

My wife didn't want a big spectacle on her 60th birthday, so we decided to have a quiet lunch at Rooftop. She ordered a salad topped with a grilled salmon. I had the sea bass with risotto, and my daughter had the spicy rigatoni with chicken. We also ordered the shrimp tacos (4 tacos). All of the dishes we ordered were delicious. The grilled salmon that came with the salad was cooked just right. The sea bass was good and the melted cheese in the risotto was just right and not overpowering the overall flavor of the dish. And my daughter had no complaints on the rigatoni as she cleaned up her plate. And saving the best for last was the shrimp tacos. The shrimp tasted so delicious and fresh that I wished we had more, but with all the food we had, the shrimp tacos outshined them all. And not to forget our server, (I forgot his name God bless his soul) he was very sweet and personable, with a happy demeanor. Hope they pay him well because he was very attentive to our needs. Overall, my wife's birthday celebration, even though it wasn't elaborate, it was a very nice experience and we will definitely will come back if we're in the area. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Our Dinner crew enjoyed dinner at the Rooftop last night and we had a great meal, including great service from our server Amari and the food and drinks were awesome. As soon as I was seated I ordered the four roses old fashioned! It came right out and was unbelievable. Next was appetizers, Burrata, Brussels sprouts, calamari and fresh oysters. These were all great! My choice for dinner was the 20 ounce bone in ribeye steak medium well! I was able to finish it and it was amazing! My buddies had another Ribeye, sea bass, sea scallops and short ribs' Everyone enjoyed their meal! We even had the pleasure of being seated next to a group that included WNBA world champion Sabrina Ionescu! We bought a couple bottles of wine and they were happy to open them for a reasonable fee! There were 7 of us for dinner at 7pm and the check was divided by six coming out to $140.00 dollars each! $$$ I would recommend Rooftop and I plan to return soon and try some of the other items on the menu!

Rooftop is one of our most FAVORITE restaurants. The food is AMAZING. Everything on the menu is delicious you literally cannot go wrong. But what REALLY sets it aparf is the TOP NOTCH SERVICE!! Im disabled and among other things I have a noise sensitivity and bad bad back that cannot handle their regular chairs. They have been so accommodating finding me a special chair that is gentle on me and always seating us in the less noisy areas of the restaurant. We try to always overtip because they are worth it!!! Thank you Rooftop!!

Perfect place to stop in and grab a quick bite to eat! My wife and I stumbled on this spot one summer day while we needed a break for shopping and also time to kill before our meet up with friends. We were both a little hungry and decided to check it out. The view of downtown is awesome, at night I can imagine looks even nicer. Which brings me to say this would be an awesome spot to grab a drink and maybe some fries at night with friends! The service was awesome, they accommodated us since we wanted to sit with a better view and they squeezed us in since we didn't have a reservation. We will definitely be back.

A quick stop at the rooftop to celebrate my babies bday turn out to discover a fantastic spot with so much to offer at Rooftop. The design is stunning--modern, sleek, and beautifully laid out with plenty of space to relax and enjoy. Whether you're seated inside or outside, the atmosphere is vibrant yet comfortable. The staff was super friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The menu has a great selection, and the food was nice. Every dish was flavorful and well-presented. Great spot for a fun evening out with friends or family. I'll definitely be back!

The short ribs were sooo delicious and salmon had a tasty sauce! The ambience is upbeat and fun especially if you're celebrating something! Also a cute date spot with a nice view. Our server was helpful and friendly. Only letdown was the Oaxacan drink. It just wasn't my type of drink but the Georgia Peach mule was delicious.

I recently had the opportunity to come and check out this place, I wasn't aware that three businesses were in one building with a shared address that was a bit confusing so I thought I'd share to avoid any confusion for others The food was great, however when we asked to split the plate into two shareable plates it was a bit awkward and disappointing to hear from our waiter that the kitchen staff refused While we did not appreciate the kitchen staff refusing our waiter, still made the remaining experience wonderful Drinks were very good however you're forced to close out at the bar before you move over to a table. It makes for arriving early awkward as well The hostess also refused to sit me at a table while I waited for the remainder of my party to arrive, which is pretty common, but still very unnecessary to have to continuously open and closed tabs in the same establishment They make it seem like you're going into a completely different establishment. When really you're just moving 4to 6 feet away from where you originally were at the bar. The places overall clean, but nothing exciting. Another inconvenience of this place is due to the shared space. The bathroom is located on a completely different level so you need to prepare to go up and down the stairs or wait for an elevator.

My friends and I had a wonderful time! I read some negative reviews about the service prior to our visit, but we received amazing customer service. The ambiance was great. Food and cocktails were delicious. Only complaint would be that we did order two Chilean Seabass, but unfortunately one plate had a full size portion. The other plate had only a quarter size portion. (I've included pictures) Thankfully my friend said I can have some of her portion. Other than that, was a great time here. Must try if you're in the area.

But when we got there on Sunday, 1/12, for our leopard-themed women's event, we learned there were specific rules for large parties. I made 2 different reservations under my name but it didnt matter and we would not have been able to sit near each other. According to the manager, Allie (if I'm not mistaken), if we wanted to sit together we would have needed to pay extra ( $50 Min per person) for a private room, and we also couldn't be seated until our entire group arrived. Despite the initial confusion, Allie was really accommodating and handled everything well. In the end, about 10 of us showed up, and we were seated at the long table near the door.

My friends and I came on a random day, and decided to give this place a try. Over all, I had a great experience at this restaurant! The food was pretty good, and the service was great The drinks were delicious as well. If you're looking for a nice chill day, with a nice cute little view of walnut creek, I would give this place a try.

Food was mediocre at best. We got the pork belly which the meat was good but tiny portions and only 3 or 4 pieces for 18$. I got the short ribs and it was flavorless. My girlfriends got the bolognese and it was not very flavorful either and it was a little cold. The only reason I would go to rooftop again is for their overpriced kinda fancy drinks. Service was the only thing that was good.

What a lovely spot in Walnut Creek! This place is perfect for date nights, hangouts with friends, etc. At night the lighting is dim, and you get a view of downtown if you reserve edge seating. Calamari - Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. The perfect combo! Served with a delicious cocktail sauce and ranch. Portion size is generous as well. Morgan Territory - a light beer that paired well with the calamari. Huckleberry Sunset - probably one of my favorite mixed drinks I've had. The taste of alcohol is nearly non-existent, and the mix of flavors is refreshing! It is pretty pricey and service can be slow during busy hours, so if you visit here, be prepared; other than that, this is a chill spot to visit!

The service was good. The server was nice & helpful when we asked questions about drinks & about switching tables as the restaurant was pretty noisy. Happy Huckleberry mocktail 5/5 It has a distinct sweet fruity taste to it & the carbonation makes it a great fruity drink when you crave something sweet. I really like this drink a lot! Tuna tartare 4/5 This dish was good. The tuna was fresh, the chips that came with it tasted alright. Fried calamari 5/5 I really liked this dish, the inside of the fried calamari was on the softer side than other fried calamari I have tried before at other restaurants. This calamari was more on the lightly fried side. The cocktail sauce compliments calamari really well.

Food is sooooo bland. I came here for my birthday and I ordered the short ribs. Despite the sauce on top, it tasted like nothing. We also got a few orders of the spicy rigatoni. Again, no flavor whatsoever. Do they even season their food? Everyone at the table added salt to their meal. The bolognese was okay, and the truffle fries were good. I was given a birthday cupcake at the end. To be completely honest it was gross and everyone at the table thought so too. The service was good, workers were friendly, and the place was very lively. Very disappointed in the food, though.

I've been here a few times in the last couple of years for cocktails (Sunday night most recently). It's a nice spot. The customer service from both bartenders and the hostess is always great so I appreciate that.

Updated review from out second visit yesterday. The rooftop restaurant is a nice venue on the third floor. The service yesterday was actually friendly and good. However the food is just overpriced and bad. The $20 burger (including the $2 upcharge for truffle fries which are just sprinkled on salty mushroom powder) was a joke. The enormous bun was hiding a tiny little hamburger patty. Oh and the meat itself had a weird metallic taste. One piece of lettuce, two slices of tomato and raw (!!!) onions completed this runner up to Burger King. The Banh Mi was clearly made by someone who has never been to Vietnam (or even San Jose). The pork should be seasoned and grilled not baked with some weird vinegar bbq sauce. The vegetables should be pickled. Where's the sriracha? Served with French fries? I realize this is Walnut Creek but can we at least try?

The space is fabulous. The restaurant is very loud and had a lot of movement. It was crowed and had a warm feeling. The service was very good. Amari was our server. Her was great. However the food was average. I had a Cesar salad and calamari. The Cesar lacked flavor and calamari was a little oily. I do not have to return.

Monday night dinner was quite enjoyable. Heaters roared as the evening temps were cold. The sea bass over risotto was really nicely cooked. The fish was moist. The risotto scrumptious. The Brussels sprouts appetizer has bits of pork belly, be ready!

No pictures from my visit, but this is an interesting spot for drinks and food. Portions of the restaurant are open air and portions are sealed off with clear plastic during the colder months and open during the warmer months. The restaurant is located on the third floor of the building, upstairs from Teleferic. They have a pretty good bar selection and their specialty cocktail list is pretty good. Much of the food menu is leaning toward starters, which fits with the drinks and food with a group approach. We had multiple items, including the tuna tartare (think poke appetizer), fried calamari, and the spud delight. All were pretty solid. I had the sea scallops, which some of the better scallops I have had in recent times. I can see coming here if I was attending an event at the Lesher Center.

It had been a while since I visited this restaurant so I gave it a chance on Saturday and met a friend for sips and bites. Despite having made an online reservation we still waited 15 minutes to be seated. This might have been the foreshadowing. The ambience was pleasant, a mixture of high and low tables but no stand out decor. The noise level was quite surprising, it was so loud we could barely hear our server when he came to take orders. I started with the raspberry truffle cocktail. This drink was clearly not a looker but it taste like a chocolate raspberry milkshake with a hint of booze. For entrees we shared the tuna tartar and the mussels and clams. The mussels and clams were the clear standout with the rich, silky wine broth, and the fries were just perfect for dipping. There happened to be several birthday parties which might have contributed to the long wait and high noise level. After multiple attempts we finally flagged down our server for the check. Overall, Rooftop did its job of providing nourishment, there are other places I would like to visit in Walnut Creek before returning.

Ambiance: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Food: 5/5+ We went first thing for Lunch on a Sunday with my daughter, her aunt, and my dad. We had reservations for birthday lunch for my daughter and we were able to be sat by the window. we ordered our appetizers and drinks all at once and gave our actual lunch orders after our drinks got to the table. not long after getting our drinks and ordering the rest of our food, the appetizers were served at the table. The appetizers came out beautiful and amazingly delicious! We ordered the Heirloom Tomato and Burrata, Crispy Fried Calamari and the Pork Belly for starters. I don't have a favorite but I am leaning towards the Fried Calamari; perfectly crispy--not too salty but perfectly seasoned. the Heirloom Tomatoes and Burrata is close to perfection! But that Pork Belly... it was very tasty, perfectly cooked but could use less rice; otherwise I love it! I ordered the lunch duo special (which is a separate menu) and got the Caesar Salad and Beef Short Rib. TBH I haven't had a good Beef Short Rib dish since eating in Anaheim! says a lot... will be back to eat more great dishes here! Our server was Ricky; he was very polite and very friendly! Great Service!

I recently dined at Rooftop Restaurant & Bar and had a delightful experience! The Goat Cheese and Beets starters was a perfect start to the meal--yummy and tangy, just as I had hoped. The menu overall offers a good variety, making it a great choice when you're feeling hungry for something special. Be prepared, though, as it leans towards the expensive side, but you get what you pay for. For the entrees, I opted for the Sea Scallops, and they were absolutely fantastic! Cooked to perfection with a delightful sauce that complemented them well. Although I didn't try the ribeye this time, it's definitely on my list for my next visit! Service-wise, our server Nick was attentive and ensured our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. The ambiance at Rooftop Restaurant & Bar is simply lovely, with a magical view of the mountains from the third-floor setting. It's a great spot if you want to enjoy a scenic dinner. In conclusion, if you're looking for a place with great food, excellent drinks, attentive service, and a beautiful ambiance, Rooftop Restaurant & Bar is definitely worth a visit. Just be prepared to splurge a little for the overall experience!

The staff were very welcoming and accommodating from start to finish! Rooftop has the best ambiance! It's nice and airy which makes for a great all occasions atmosphere. The cocktails were good but not very strong, I love a bartender with a heavy hand but this wasn't the case ( I ordered a drink called the La Polma? I can't remember) To eat, I ordered the short ribs and a wedge salad. The food was tasty, plus the ribs were very tender. I would've preferred a pinch of salt or seasoning on the ribs but they were still delicious. The restaurant was so nice and chill, I definitely recommend going.

Good start to a girl's night outing! Around the area there is a parking lot right next to the restaurant. The restaurant is located on the 3rd floor of the building it's in and has a nice view of downtown Walnut Creek. The ambiance is great with cute photo ops at the entrance and our service was good! We had to order food in order to sit at a table which we thought was weird, but we ordered their truffle fries that came out hot and crispy. The drinks we ordered were delicious as well! If you need to use the restroom, it's located on the 2nd floor. Definitely somewhere to come back again when in Walnut Creek.

Came by last minute on a Friday night. Online reservations were taken up and it was pretty busy, but they managed to squeeze in my party of 2! Thank you for your service, Chris! Giving 4 stars because the food was just alright... not the best, but not bad either. I had the salmon entree and a bit of the short ribs.

Everytime we've gone to Rooftop my wife and I have a great dining experience, and this time was no different. We went for our 16th anniversary and once again were treated wonderfully, from the manager Blake who personally checked in with us to make sure everything was perfect to our awesome server Brandy (sp?) who was extremely friendly, attentive and helpful. Thank you again Rooftop for a fantastic time...!

Girl lunch at Rooftop! So great! They are bringing the lunch menu back (think shrimp tacos and poke bowls)... we opted for the "classics". Ahi tartare with rice chips (so fresh) and tempura cauliflower (very lightly battered with a hint of seasoning and still firm)... and of course some

UPDATE: The GM reached out to me and wanted to make my experience representative of the service and food program he created. Unfortunately, I sent him three text messages after our conversation letting him know we wanted to give the restaurant another try. He never responded. Below is the original review. We started with oysters which were good. My girlfriend got the Caesar with pasta. The pasta was dry and had no flavor. We had to go up to the bar to get salt to try and flavor it I had the scallops over roasted veggies. The sauce was overwhelming so I had no idea how the veggies were. At a minimum this dish should have been served with rice,veggies on the side. The third friend had a beet salad. There is nothing really to say about that. Finally we had to find our server to ask for the check. We will not be back based on amazing dining options in the area.

Ambiance was great! The food for me was a salad. Chicken was rubbery, no flavor to the salad. the fruit tasted dirty. The other food for the party was great. Our waiter didn't seem to care. Over all it was a weird experience. The bar tenders were great! They close at 11 so make sure you are ready to go.

Food 4/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 3/5 Roof Top has been on my list of places to eat for awhile. I expected it to be a little more upscale. The ambiance was very basic and dim. It was clean and pretty packed. I needed to use the flashlight on my phone to read the menu. The music was blaring as if it was a night club. Could be a weekend thing. The food and drinks were fabulous. However, the menu isn't too allergy friendly. We both chose the salmon and thoroughly enjoyed it. Savored every single bite. The salmon was cooked just right, so ginger sauce added the right touch. Asparagus slightly overcooked, lacking that bite. The salmon is saving the food rating. I ordered a Manhattan which was perfection. My friend ordered a margarita and said it was on point. The server provided seamless customer service. Nothing took too long and he constantly checked in. We'd like to try RoofTop again but during the week and possibly in the day time.

We hadn't eaten here in a while, so I had to try it out again on Sunday early afternoon. Restaurant Had a light ambience, slightly loud but doable with a centralized bar/sports bar type feel to it. Early afternoon time becomes important in the story about how long they serve lunch for. So had some chitchat with my partner had cocktails and our server/waiter was pleasant. suddenly a young lady came and snagged the lunch menus saying lunch is over.! Felt like she was rushing us!! lol the server came right behind her and did a service recovery per se and said "guys I can put in something, and that that's the manager not me". food was delicious, cocktail were on point ..Had a good afternoon outside of feeling rushed in a half empty restaurant...and we were even sitting indoors

Rooftop was such a pleasant surprise despite the low Yelp rating. You definitely need a reservation or you'll be waiting quite a while. I felt service was attentive and quick. They were very good about refilling water for the table and asking if we needed anything. They have very sweet cocktails which I'm a fan of and mocktails as well! I loved their lamb meatballs - the tomato sauce and yogurt on top was phenomenal - super flavorful and tangy dish. The scallops tasted a bit smoky but I was surprised by the sauce they paired it with - also very flavorful, slightly sweet, and creamy (reminded me of Thai coconut curry). Presentation was also beautiful and overall a great time. The views may not be the best but the weather was nice and I enjoyed my time here!

We were a little conflicted coming here with the reviews but decided to give it a shot. It was our first roof top bar experience, and we truly enjoyed it. Our hostess was kind and got us seated in 20 minutes. We sat outside, and it was quieter than indoor, which was nice. Very nice restaurant inside and out. Very clean. Drinks Shot gun & Huckleberry 10/10 Very good! Appetizer Pork Belly 8/10 Everything was just enough. It's very tasty. The presentation was on point Dinner Rib Eye 8/10 Very good. Ordered medium rare. Would order again. The presentation again was great. Looked just as appetizing as it tasted. Would order again. Short Ribs 8/10 Very good. Very tender. Meat fell apart. Served over the perfect amount of veggies. I did feel it was missing something but, overall it was tasty and would order again. Despite the other reviews, we had a pleasant experience. We'll be back.

Dolce tried to seat us outside on the terrace and did not work cause of the cold and breezy conditions. Allie worked and accommodated our group of seven inside and turned out just fine. It was quite an experience and our server Brandi did try to work with our orders. Overall, it was a good dining experience and priced reasonably.

I have frequented The Rooftop since the day it first opened. When visitors come from out of town I always bring them to your restaurant for the fabulous food & view of Mt Diablo. I've taken my family to your restaurant for many of our family celebrations - from birthdays to graduations. Last night, however, for our after Valentine's Day outing, we had a bad experience. Although, the food was excellent, as usual, and the staff are very professional, they were not on top of our table to refill our glasses. We both would have ordered another $20 glass of wine to add to your profits had someone come back to the table in time. Worst of all, we were seated beside a large party of friends who were very noisy and were doing hard slap clapping at their own jokes that pierced the ears. I know that "lively & "noisy" is the model for many popular restaurants today to lure younger people into the restaurant; but, my date and I couldn't hear each other due to the loud chatter behind us. I thought, perhaps, the sounds would lessen once they were fed, but they never quieted. I noticed, too, that on the patio there were only high-top tables (and, it appears you've added more high tops throughout the restaurant). For mature people these high tops are hard to negotiate and could be a liability if someone were to fall; not to mention they are terribly uncomfortable at this age. Mature people need to have a "sure footing" for comfortable seating. Thus, I find your "high top table" setting very dismissive toward the mature & handicapped folks, just as the noise level is very dismissive to those with hearing issues. I get that on the patio the winter windshields block the view. Hence, high tops are a good option during the cold months. If that's the case, an area should be made that offers comfort for people who prefer dining at low top tables away from the noisy party folks who deserve, as well, to enjoy their experience. As I was leaving I spoke briefly to a young woman who said she was the dining room manager. I asked to speak to the restaurant manager but she said I could speak to her. Before I could finish she put her hand our in front of my face and said, "we're done here!" Please consider giving your mature clientele the advantages that of you offer the younger set. Please be cognizant of the noise level and seating arrangements of the mature customer. Thank you for your consideration. Kind Regards from a frequent patron- CCC Court Mediator & Psychologist

Tried this place out for a girls day out. I had the short rib plate, absolutely loved. The pork belly appetizer was tasty as well. Pricing was high for the small portions you get. However, we enjoyed the atmosphere and our time at the Rooftop. Our server was very busy and often forgot to service our table.

Rooftop is a fave of ours! The music is always good, the food and drinks are amazing. But we can never leave without having some the delicious butter cake! It's a great vibe with even better food

Definitely a good dating spot. Great view. There's an elevator that can take you to the 3rd floor. But it's 100F outside, the misting fan here is not really cooling me down. Drink and food are decent. Service was great though. It's a great place for hangout and drinks on a not so hot day.

make reservations beforehand as it does typically get busy! it's located on the third floor and it is definitely lively! i would say that most of their options lie upon their drinks and there was about 8-9 entrees to choose from. most of their options are seafood, pasta, or two options of meat. i would say that it was on the pricier side but it's much expected for their location and the ambiance. their drinks are definitely delicious tho! my salmon was on the drier side and the potatoes were salty. but i really did enjoy my fruity drink. i would say if you're in the area for a drink or two, this could be the spot but it's also pretty pricy as well. the calamari, however, was quite delicious. you can't go wrong with calamari!

This place has great ambience with a lot of drink options. I could not get enough of the truffle fries. The mussels and clams, were also excellent. Fun place to sit at the bar as well.
