Great spot in La Jolla if you are looking for somewhere with a view! However, the service was slow and the food was cold by the time it got to our table. Good drinks though! Hoping that next time it will be a better experience!

This is an awesome spot to have a cocktail and enjoy a magnificent view of the ocean! We ordered a small appetizer of roasted olives - delicious! They paired excellently with our cocktails. My wife had a drink named "Talk Birdy To Me" that came in a cool bird-shaped glass! She said it was delicious. My daughter and I opted for the run drink named "Diving Bird" - it was the perfect drink for a beautiful day! Definitely check this place out if you are in the area! The entrance is a steep climb of stairs just off the street and not obvious, so check it out in "street view" on the map so you know how to get up there!

Food was great. Service could've been better. Food did not come out at the same time, about 10 min apart. We sat with our table cleared for about 15-20 min waiting for the check before I finally asked for it.

Great spot for views, good food, and good drinks. I went here on a sunny Friday afternoon with one of my friends for lunch. You have a perfect view of the ocean and part of the Hoya Village area. Most importantly you can enjoy a meal or drinks here without that La Jolla seal smell. This is a rooftop outdoor dining restaurant. They have a wide variety of food options on their menu as well as drinks. I ordered the tequila mule, which was perfectly balanced flavors of Ginger bites. My friend and I ordered the lobster ravioli and pork belly to share. Both these plates had amazing taste and flavor. They were also both very different. I wasn't sure what to order because of their broad menu variety, I was very impressed that we could order two very different dishes and they both taste so amazing. I highly recommend this place, I definitely won't be bringing all of my San Diego visitors here.

We were looking for a place to eat in La Jolla and there wasn't much open due to the off season. Found this little restaurant and it was outstanding. The food, the service and atmosphere were outstanding. Great view of the ocean and area. and the weather was great.

Amazing place! Located in La Jolla one of the best rooftops in San Diego! It's a small place with a cute little bar! Very clean and beautiful atmosphere. They have good drinks and food. We ordered a couple of margaritas, martini and mojitos! All of them were delicious. Good we ordered the flat pepperoni pizza and I ordered the rib-eye sandwich it was uffff delicious very tasty! One of their best things in the menu. Service was fantastic! They were very attentive and friendly! I highly recommend this place and I'll be back soon! They have happy hour!

Ambiance here is awesome! Great location and beautiful views atop this rooftop patio. Unfortunately that's sort of where the buck stops with this place. Service took FOREVER for me and my fiancée who were just ordering drinks and apps. We were promised menus but after waiting 10 minutes ended up scavenging them from another table because no one came by. We finally were able to put in our drink order (a mule and a spicy marg). These took a while to come out as well. They were good but not great. They weren't even busy either - tons of open tables on the evening we went. Our chips and guac/salsa came out and were fine. About what you'd expect in terms of flavor (hard to screw up) but the portion wasn't great for being $16. How is chips and guac $16?! Focaccia was amazing - made in house and comes out warm. A fun place to come once and then never again because for the price, there's better views and better drinks/food. Especially in La Jolla.

Place was cute and has a nice view if you are by the rail. Expensive especially for what you get. $18-$20 for cocktails and about $20-$30 for small appetizers, but it is La Jolla so kind of expected. Do not order La Presion drink, it was $18, full of ice, very little alcohol, and very tasteless. I would've asked for something different but our waitress really never came by again to ask how everything was. I scooped out most of the ice and just drank it. Empanadas were good, french fries too. My niece got a drink that was very good, it was a Cucumber Mezcalita, I would recommend that ( $18 plus $1 randomly - maybe for asking for the cucumber?)! Also, beware, they have a sign that says, you and your party have a 2 hour limit, so no lingering! They have heaters outside but don't have them on, we asked if they could turn them on but the waitress basically said it was no use as the heat wouldn't reach us. She offered to bring a blanket but never came back to the table until the very end. OK, nice, will not be going back for the overpriced menu and lukewarm service. I would recommend going elsewhere with more personality and more reasonable prices.

Great views. I wish the menu was a bit deeper for brunch but it gets the job done.

Our first time in La Jolla and picked this spot to brunch! Took the waiter a little while to get to us and it was slow however once she did the ball got rolling. Loved the view of the beach, street view, and ocean. Definitely a chill spot to eat or relax and drink. Food was great as well! A bit costly for some times but the restaurant is part of a hotel we think. Especially with the way the restroom was laid out. Definitely would recommend!
