ÜCA

I remember this spot when it used to be the club for “The Standard” hotel. Same beautiful view and excellent ambiance. We started with the with the queso fundido which was delicious. I was expecting tortilla chips but it came with small flour tortillas. You can request fried tortillas too. A great starter followed by their street corn which was delicious also. For my entree we got the branzino and the pork loin. Both were very delicious and presented excellently. I was expecting the branzino to be a full fish presentation but this was easier to eat without worrying about bones. For dessert we got both the horchata tres leches and choco flan. The horchata was my favorite and excellent, I wish it came with ice cream. The choco flan was good but felt more like a jello dessert than a flan to me but the flavors were there. I’d definitely come back here again to try their other menu items. Definitely a great date spot with an excellent view of DTLA. Parking is paid at the Delphi hotel which I believe might validate if you valet but double check. I paid for self parking.

Came to @ last night for a birthday dinner. It’s on the rooftop of the @delphi hotel. Vibes and ambiance are a 5/5 Food was a 3/5 Service 5/5 It’s giving Tulum garden lounge vibes with a beautiful bar and incredible views. Guacamole - pretty good Chips - not crispy and seemed stale. Our waitress brought a “fresh batch” but was exactly the same. Very chewy. Queso fundido - delish! Especially with the flour tortillas Aguachile - pretty good but needs spice Black beans - good Cilantro lime rice - good Street corn - yummy Carnitas tacos - decent Steak tacos - decent Goberbado tacos - yummy Birthday churros - yummy Adult beverages - most are premixes which my party did not like. Bathroom is up a few stairs to the pool area which is cute as well! Hoping they work out the kinks and this place does better with the food and drinks and maybe add some live jazz. That would set it off. @travel_lifestyle_chow

ÜCA truly lives up to its description it feels like a chic escape above downtown LA, with the vibe of a Tulum rooftop but the energy of the city. The view is stunning at night with the skyline all around, making it the perfect backdrop for drinks and dinner. The food was great, flavorful, beautifully presented, and made with fresh ingredients. The seafood and Latin-inspired dishes really shine, and the portions are satisfying without being heavy. Drinks were just as impressive, especially the craft cocktails built around agave spirit, creative, balanced, and served with flair. The atmosphere ties it all together: stylish yet relaxed, with music, cozy seating, and a rooftop vibe that makes you want to linger. The staff were friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. If you’re in DTLA and want great food, incredible drinks, and an unbeatable rooftop vibe, this is the spot.

Use to be called "standard" Which was a cool spot. But they really remodeled this roof top well. Parking is easy. Located in the back of the building. Elevator to the restaurant is located on the second floor up the stairs when you enter. There's a hostess at the elevator. Makes it feel more like a NYC/Manhattan lounge/restaurant. Price is actually pretty amazing. As in not very expensive. Food portions are very fair. With some being medium to some sides being A LOT which is great. I tried a few things. Steak tacos Beans Guacamole Let's start with the tacos. More of an American style taco but with great flavor. Meat is marinated well. It's not overly salted or peppered. Portion is good with 3. Display was great. Beans. Pretty average but tastes good. Guacamole. Nothing overly complicated. THANK GOD. It's so annoying when places complicate the simplest things. And they did not do that with the guacamole. Would I recommend this place? Most definitely. The atmosphere is more young. Upper class. The food is good. Not AMAZING but definitely worth a return. Pool area is fantastic. Staff was awesome. If you like a good roof top pool with food? Highly recommend. Enjoy! Food: above average Staff: no issues Cleanliness: very well Decor: new and remodeled Bathrooms: very clean

I really liked the cocktails, guacamole, ceviche, and the chips that come with them. We spent about $140 including tip. The only dish we didn’t enjoy was the yellowtail salad—it felt very basic for the price, so I wouldn’t order it again. The waitress was super nice and the ambiance was amazing. Just be patient with the elevator since it’s quite old, but everything else was great!

We visited Uca Rooftop at night and the views were absolutely stunning — the city lights made the whole vibe feel magical. The food and drinks were incredible (everything tasted fresh and well-made). Our server, Luna, was the sweetest — super attentive, kind, and made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely recommend coming here for a night out

It’s a vibe here! The food is great and the drinks hit! My girl Luna added to my experience by being attentive and so smiley! If you don’t go for the food and drink GO FOR LUNA!!!!

I came here recently and had such a great experience! I ordered the street mango and the cristal verde to start, both were super refreshing and unique. For food, I tried the tacos gobernador and the steak & longaniza plate. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and perfectly cooked. The restaurant itself has such a nice vibe, great views and a relaxed but lively atmosphere that makes you want to stay a while. What really made the experience extra special, though, was the amazing service from Jolene! She was so attentive, friendly, and genuinely made the whole evening feel welcoming.
