    A hot spot in LA! Brunch is popular and reservations are recommended. Live bands in the evenings on weekdays and mixologists. You will find some of the best rooftop views of Downtown LA.

    What a view! This is a great place to celebrate. We loved all the cocktails, and you can’t go wrong with the food. Make sure to make a reservation in advance- we got seated immediately with opentable.

    Crabcake bennie had a spongy texture which I dislike (breading issue), huevos rancheros looked very good! You pay for the fantastic ambiance here, very worth it! Live jazz at Sunday brunch.

    Waiters are super polite and friendly, the view is nice. Great french onion soup. Salad was ok, nothing special. Filet mignon was soft and juicy. Definitely try dessert here! The best desserts ever!

    Hit this rooftop bistro at sunset (reservation recommended) or late night, and try to take your eyes off the sparkling downtown view to enjoy the baked Brie and steak frites. Read more

    Parked at Pershing Square. Hung out at the rooftop bar while we waited for our table. Filet mignon and the loup de mer were our best dishes. Creme brûlée and bread pudding for dessert.

    Food is great (especially the tuna tartare). Medium-high prices. Excellent staff and service. The rooftop has an amazing atmosphere. Also: great cocktails (if you enjoy vodka, try the Lolita!).

    I usually get filet mignon or steak frites when I'm here. Their truffle fries (with or without cheese) are so delicious! Gorgeous views and live music. Sketchy elevators to get to the top though!

    Great views good vibe and drinks fo early its more fun at 5 on the wknd without the big crowds. We liked the table on the edge between the patio and the inside. It seems to combine the best of both!

    Cocktail sippers are treated to a view from the 15th floor, looking down on the hustle of Pershing Square. Rise above the fray while partaking in libations with '20s-esque drinks. Read more

    Rooftop setting is probably the best part. Great food too although be prepared for a lighter wallet. Filet mignon was great -- with glazed Brussels sprouts on the side.

    Fantastic views. Delicious food. Can get a bottle of wine with dinner and carry it up to the rooftop bar to enjoy after dinner.

    One of the best experiences at DTLA ... Go earlier than your reservation and head to the rooftop bar for a drink ... Always ask for an outside table

    The food, the drinks, the service, and most definitely the stunning view. This is one of my favorite places to spend a romantic evening while in downtown LA.

    A great rooftop French Bistro. The truffle fries w cheese and bacon are one beat from a heart attack. Try instead the shrimp w sauce mere and indulge on Des Pates a la sauce Mornay.

    Music is a bit strange for a bar but its one of my favorite rooftop spots in DTLA. Only the full bar inside serves the real cocktails. Head to the outside bars for anything else.

    Cute little rooftop speakeasy in DTLA. Grab a glass of wine on the roof and watch the sunset over LA

    Rooftop brunch or happy hour very trendy, try to get a table outside or hang out by the bar with great appetizers and late night

    Great date spot if you can get a reservation or are just going to hang out on the rooftop bar. Appetizers were better than the main courses IMO.

    Definitely a great place to hang and grab some drinks with friends. The rooftop allows you to have a scenic view of the downtown Los Angeles nightlife.

    perfectly cooked fillet of perch (the fish, and a clever pun) over baby leeks, the buttermilk-marinated and crispy-baked frog legs, and the down-home take on a cassoulet called Pork & Beans. Read more

    The roof top, after 3 elevators, is a great place to sit and watch the sunset. They closed it down when the bartenders got cold, so we had to go sit on the deck with the groovy jazz band.

    Jazz band on Friday nights is awesome! Beat the lines and come early (7-10 pm) to hear them.

    Birds of a feather eat pork belly confit together at this foliage-ified rooftop bar. Snag Frenchy fare like rabbit rillette or the "Duck, Duck, Goose" platter. That is, unless you’re too chicken. Read more

    Take the elevator to the 13th floor and then again to the 15th floor for the restaurant or the 16th floor for the bar.
