Roosterfish West Hollywood

It’s fine. Drinks are ok. Food is basic. But that also is the problem. Happy hour ordered lychee Gaga but only tasted cucumber, no lemon or lychee. Blush margarita guava and orange liqueur were not present so it just tasted like a plain margarita. Mon garçon cognac, lime ginger beer and peach puree was the best which isn’t saying much because there wasn’t any peach flavor. Drinks were fine, but certainly not the balance expected from the description making them basic bar drinks. Ordered truffle zucchini and rigatoni meatballs and neither were available, big fail. Also ordered fries, basic freezer brand, honey and wolf flatbread which was the best and worth ordering, and calamari fritti which had a taste of flour and was bad. In this neighborhood with all the bar competition and plenty of great restaurants I’m not sure it can survive if this is what you are giving as a new place trying to impress and compete. I gave up taking photos because “nothing to see here.” Considering how beautiful this space was when in was PUMP, my mind was blown at their bland, boring dumbing down basics look to the space also. I don't know who thought this renovation was a good idea, but it's awful.

Ash and Gianni are amazing. The service is always top tier, the ambiance is unmatched, and it’s truly one of the best bars in the area.

A relatively new spot in West Hollywood. It was Pump before and was under construction for a while and is finally opened as Roosterfish. It’s still finding its niche amongst all the other bars here. We came here for happy hour and enjoy our bartender Eddie. Great person with good conversation and cares about the community. We got some food on their Happy Hour. The Meatball Rigatoni was really well done. The Wolf and Honey was tasty too. The Calamari didn’t hit the mark and was a bunch of fried breading with very few pieces of actual squid. I kinda miss the ambiance of the previous restaurant here but we’ll see how Roostefish develops in Weho!

The new Roosterfish-Weho is gorgeous! Sister bar to the iconic Roosterfish-Venice, this place is at the old PUMP location and still has the beautiful patio with the olive trees but with significantly upgrade lighting and ambience. Great happy hour 5-8pm daily with $9 specialty cocktails and $10 bites, including some great and sizeable flatbreats for the price. A welcome addition to the Weho scene!

STEEEEVVEEEE I LOVE YOU. I truly appreciate and loved Steve. We came on a Love Island x Rupail night. They were understaffed, but Steve never failed to satisfy us. He was very accommodating and very attentive and kind. We really appreciate his service and I wish I could’ve tipped him 🌚. Also the bouncer for the evening, chefs kiss. So kind and friendly. I NEED TO FIND HIS NAME TO SHOUT HIM OUT. BUT TRULY STEVE AND HIM WERE AMAZING 🩵🩵🩵

Beautiful venue- twinkly trees in pots make it feel like your in a fae forest! The dance floor isn't well defined and a bit tricky to navigate with the trees, but it's a great vibe

I went on a Thursday night and made a reservation for 10 people a few days beforehand because I wanted to make sure they could accommodate a big group. My reservation was confirmed through email and text, but when i got their at the time of my reservation, the staff had no idea what i was talking about until i showed them my email confirmation and then had to kick people out of a table to fit my large group which was a little awkward. The food was not bad, but the happy hour prices on the food are super overpriced considering the tiny portions the apps on the happy hour menu are. The vibes were okay but I wouldn’t go back because of how overpriced the small bites of food were and because they seemed unorganized and had minimal customer service.

Arrived here at 10:25 pm made my way to the bar where there weren’t many people yet both bartenders seemed more interested in just standing around talking and socializing with each other and selectively serving people. I stood at the bar and just watched people walk up and the bartenders serve them and ignore me. After 35 minutes of waiting I decided to head to another bar to get a drink. Highly doubtful I’d ever return or even recommend this place due to the service.

Great Mojitos... amazing Carnival ambiance with friendly service. clean restrooms a MUST

Came here on a Saturday night when I had some friends visiting from out of town. We showed up around 10 PM and we were able to get right in. By midnight, it did get really packed, but until then it was fairly easy to get a drink at the bar. I like the fact that there's an area by the bar where people can hang out and then there's a dance floor in the other room. They have two bathrooms, but the line was really cramped because it was basically where the walkway was. The DJ played a mix of old-school and top 40 which I loved. One thing that annoyed me, though, was that when I went to get around to drinks and also asked for a soda water for my friend who doesn't drink, they charged me more than a couple dollars for that. Overall, I'd come back for the good music and the great crowd.

Our visit to Roosterfish was off to a rough start. One of my friends went to the bar, and the bartender, Gianni, was literally mean rude, dismissive, and just gave off a really negative attitude. It caught all of us off guard and made us feel pretty uncomfortable. I asked a staff member named Jesus if he could help or find the manager. Jesus was super kind and really tried to help he went looking for the manager but wasn't able to find them at the time. Still, he stayed helpful and respectful throughout. A bit later, Steve came over after noticing we were upset. He asked what was going on, and after we explained the situation, he immediately apologized and offered us a round on the house. That small gesture honestly turned the night around for us. Huge thank you to Jesus and Steve for their professionalism and kindness. They really salvaged what could have been a totally negative experience. But Gianni's attitude definitely needs to be addressed especially in a place like Roosterfish, where the vibe is usually welcoming and fun.

My boyfriend ordered Patron and what they served definitely was not. And this has happened on more than one occasion. When he confronted the unhelpful bartender, they did not remedy the situation. The security then proceeded to intimidate our group, and on our way out grabbed my boyfriend and pushed our other friend down with no provocation from us at all. Very bad business model!

Ehhhh. This place looked cool, the server/host was very nice and accommodating but this was kind of a joke. We saw on Instagram they had a post about happy hour and drag race 8-close. So we thought to try it for this week... It was not happy hour this week. Two drinks (vodka ginger beer & peachy queen) $36. I ordered the $11 mozzarella cheese sticks... 5 of them, cold, cheese not melted still solid. Not a fan of this spot. I doubt we will be back.

Came here for happy hour with some friends. We came right at opening and they were a bit late to open. We were the only ones there and the bartender was super nice and friendly. Our drinks were fast. The ambiance is nice, and the outdoor seating is spacious though a bit janky. We also tried the meatball sandwich which was pretty tasty and the fries which were good. Overall, a good happy hour spot that lasts a while. Would come back again!

Great atmosphere, the workers were cool too. Friends and I came here for an event but we had a good time! Food was available.

The original Roosterfish opened in Venice in 1979. It was a popular spot for my boys back in the late80's, so they were happy when they heard a second location was opening in West Hollywood where PUMP used to be. I've never been to the original location, so I was excited to check it out. Roosterfish is more of a nightlife destination than a restaurant. However, they do offer Italian-American bites. There are a few tables inside and plenty of space to socialize and dance. Outside is a cozy oasis - the beautiful olive trees, large center bar, & cabanas from its previous incarnation still remain. We made reservations and were seated in one of the cabanas. The DJ was playing some killer house music. Since it was the day before St Patrick's day, the usual Happy Hour specials weren't available, but the manager was kind enough to give us complimentary frozen mango margaritas. Bartender Maria was amazing! She had such a great personality and she frequently came out from behind the bar to check on us and bring us more drinks. There was also a very nice gentleman that brought our food and cleared our plates. I had the Huge Spritz, which was tasty & refreshing. The Lucky Paloma was a hit with our group. The light smokiness of the Mezcal gave it a nice twist. It was good. The Black Eye, which was a riff on an Old Fashioned, was exceptionally smooth. We ordered some appetizers to share: Mozzarella Fritta, French Fries with Truffle Aioli, & Calamari Fritti. They were all yummy and the fries were seasoned, which made then even more delicious. My friend said the vibe reminded him of the original Roosterfish. I like the ambience and the welcoming atmosphere. I look forward to coming back. HH Daily 5 - 8 pm

We came here for happy hour, which is until 7 pm on weekdays. The happy hour deals are great and include tons of cocktails and lots of food options as well. There's a big outdoor patio and bar, but beware it gets crowded with long lines on days when they're hosting Love Island watch parties. Otherwise, it's usually not super crowded and a chill spot to grab a drink and bite!

SUCH A COOL BAR WITH GREAT AMBIANCE AND A LOT OF SPACE! I was excited to go to Roosterfish for the first time and it did not disappoint. PROS--- ATMOSPHERE: Was immaculate, I loved walking in through the olive tree forest of lights. Such a cool look and vibe. I also loved the back seating area with the pink glow outlines SERVICE: Our bartender was super friendly and made great drinks. She even offered to make an alteration if we didn't like the spice level which was super nice SPACE: I loved walking around to each area. Each space is well designed. Loved the option of being indoors or outdoors

The bartenders were great! Good vibes, easy service and amazing music Would def recommend

Impressed with this new location for roosterfish! It's incredibly spacious and they kept the olive trees from this spot's PUMP days which i love. Staff was friendly and drinks were good.

I can't tell you how happy I am to see Roosterfish take it to the next level in WEHO! Thai place is beautiful-I've been here now for a day party and at night and both times are super vibey! Great place to chill and have a drink and a bite during the week or go a little crazy on the weekend.

We love Rooster fish! We come in all the time and the drinks are so good! The staff is always super friendly and the vibes are immaculate. Saturdays are always the best days to come here, the music is great and we always have so much fun! Shoutout to the bartenders Julia and Jesus they always provide such a fun experience for us! 10/10 recommend you check out Rooster Fish!

Great bartender and service from Mariah, very personable and makes bomb drinks! We had a good time at the bar

Wandered in here last weekend and was glad I did so. Environment was safe & welcoming. Drinks were great and the food surpassed my expectations. The outdoor area is charming with a beautiful olive tree. This would be a perfect area if they started hosting Sunday brunch. Can't wait to come back !

I've been here a couple times now and I love it. It's one of my favorite places to drink and dance on the Santa Monica strip. The ambiance with the lights on the bar and in the trees are so pretty and the drinks are always bomb. Bathrooms are also very clean and nicely decorated. Haven't had a bad service experience at all. Definitely recommend.

I miss it when this place was pump. We went for an event last night and it was slam packed but for some reason they had ONE waiter and ONE bartender. That's it. I waited in line at the bar for 30 minutes and the bartender didn't even look in my direction. On top of that, their security guards are unprofessional as hell. One of them grabbed my cup of water out of my hands while I was finishing it bc he said I couldn't take drinks out of the restaurant. I said fine let me finish it and he aggressively grabbed it and threw it on the ground. Still in shock he did that. What an a*hole

A great expansion of the original Roosterfish. The patio is really magical, with beautiful trees but enough covered seating for dining if needed. The bartenders are not only gorgeous but friendly and helpful, even on the view party nights (super fun). Not sure if he is a bar manager or a waiter but the guy Steve who helped us was so attentive and made our evening extra enjoyable

Great bar with quality food and a fun atmosphere! We went on the early side to enjoy some food and cocktails before the craziness of Friday night started, but were having such a great time we stayed all night. Highly recommend.

Don't go there for the food. Go there for the "West Hollywood" ambiance, music , bar, dancers, etc., I have never witnessed anyone taking a gorgeous restaurant like the PUMP and making it look like a restaurant on Venice Beach. It looks trashy from the outside and the colors are beachy. It just doesn't fit into that "area" of SM Blvd.

Awesome vibes and the bartenders are super cool! The lights and the trees make it an experience

Decor and ambience is fantastic. Love the trees and lighting for an outside driving space

I came to Roosterfish for the first time today and had a very disappointing experience with the bartender Gianni. I ordered a lemon drop and noticed he was pouring more lemon juice than vodka. When I politely mentioned it, he gave me attitude and asked if I wanted him to use a jigger. I said yes, and from that point on he was rude throughout the entire interaction. When I asked if they offered an industry discount, he told me, "We only have it for friends and you're not a friend." Completely unprofessional and unnecessary. At the end, when I requested a receipt, he refused and said they don't print receipts. I asked how to enter my email to get one, and he just said, "I don't know how to help you. Overall, the service was hostile and dismissive from start to finish. I left feeling unwelcome and disrespected. With so many great bars in LA that treat customers with kindness and professionalism, I wouldn't recommend coming here. ....However, Steve and Jesus completely turned the experience around. Steve was very supportive and understanding, and Jesus was extremely attentive. They both went out of their way to make me feel welcome, which made a huge difference. I still think the first interaction needs to be addressed, but thanks to Steve and Jesus the night ended on a much better note.

Really enjoyed myself here! Drinks are delicious and food was great. Would definitely recommend. Jesus was so hospitable and made sure we had a great time

Nice place, excellent service and music. I would definitely come back, and delicious food

Jesus was amazing...great mixologist and super personable. Great vibes on a Sat evening!

Lindsey & maria are absolutely amazing! We are so grateful they were our waitresses. We had the best time! We will come here eveytikr we are in the area!

Bartenders where amazing!!! The dj was spinning bangers, great mixed drinks, overall great vibes

What a great place. I believe it used to be something different before but the vibe is amazing. The host was so nice and the bartender got me wasted lol. Not unusual for Weho but I enjoyed! I definitely will be back.

my boyfriend and I went here and we got kicked out for absolutely no apparent reason. we were dancing in the corner by the bathroom but and all of a sudden security came up and kicked us out. I feel discriminated against. I am European and they said no reason why we were being kicked out besides the fact that we were too hot for the bar. fuck this bar it is honestly trash.

The security was so horrible, they literally death stared and were so aggressive all night, very unwelcoming, very unprofessional. Got confrontational with tone for no reason. Just disrespectful

Steve is so welcoming, kind, and helpful every time my friends and I have come here! The food and drinks are delicious and the vibe is great. But Steve's excellent service is what keeps brining us back! Plus all the staff are attentive and friendly. Definitely recommend this spot for a good night.

Amazing experience!! The place is amazinggggggg and the staff is nice. Definitely gonna come back with a bunch of friends over

The bartenders here work really hard and were really nice. I attended an event Sat night and saw the indoor bartender (I think his name is Jesus?) navigate a somewhat challenging person with great patience and care for her experience. The sound system was solid. I do wish the venue had more bathrooms, but at least they were clean. The ambiance was perfect. Enough lighting to see people but not too dark. I wish they had more rum options but overall, a great experience!

Pride 2024 was the soft opening and we were lucky enough to get into this restaurant before the rush. The vibe is bright and cheery, perhaps less morose and moody than the last residents. The courtyard is enormous and has great vibes.

ROOSTERFISH Weho is amazing!! The lights, sound and staff plus the DJ is an overall immersive experience. It's all new and upcoming. There's definitely no shortage on detail. Regardless of the location everyone is welcomed with good vibes! Keep Up The good work and look forward to new and future additions.

the patio is beautifuuuuul!! and cocktails are delicious. one of our new favorite spots

jesus was AMAZING he killed it for us all night i couldn't have asked for better !! - sapphire

shoutout to the host and security ! Love the vibe for happy hour ! Got the pina colada from the lovely bartender Lindsey this the new spottt

Great drinks great music!! Very attentive :) One of my favorite spots in WEHO. I love coming here to start off my night

Gave this place not one, but three chances and they blew all of them. First attempt: their google listing states "pets friendly", but the awful security guy would not let me in with my well behaved SERVICE DOG. He stated no animals allowed period. Second attempt: they were closed for a private event on a Thursday, why not update their website?!? Third attempt: actually went for happy hour, bartender was great, food was quite good (calamari a plus vodka pasta... they were out of some other choices) We were there for an hour and no other customers came in. Since we sat outdoors I asked for an ashtray, was handed a small glass. Even though we were the only customers, we ended up being asked to leave the bar for smoking by you guessed it... the same rude security guy that didn't let us in the first two times. Maybe one of the other bars is paying him to make the business fail?!? The "redesign" of the place is also disappointing, it looks cheap. Won't be going back.

My friends and I stumbled upon this bar while heading to the Abbey, and I'm so glad we did! We had an incredible night with a fantastic vibe, the DJ was amazing, and we danced the night away.

New bar in WeHo is phenomenal! Love the outside feel! If you're on the strip stop by.

Vibe vibe vibe. Great location to restaurants. Even better dranks! Come early and often

amazing service!!!!!!! I love Steve, Chelsea, Rob, Lindsay, Buck, Jose!!!!!! and I love Beyoncé, force, and foremost why?

Drinks were awesome! Steve the bouncer was so hospitable, and Jesus the bartender made us feel so at home. Will be back. x

This place is literally incredible! Would come here everyday if I could. Shout out to Jesus!
