Really love this place in the summer… but it was still really nice for a winter birthday celebration. Vibe and drinks were on point… first time having something other than starters and the entree was delicious.

Took about 20+ mins to take our order, truffle fries tasted like regular garlic fries, espresso martinis were not good at all.

I love the rooftop open air dining experience. We sat outside with a great view of the Mt Diablo, on a bright sunny day. Service was prompt. Allergy accommodated. I had the poke bowl-- it was delicious, and fresh. The other person had the shrimp tacos and thought them good, but not a wow.The iced tea was freshly made. Server was friendly, quick with the delivery of our lunches, and good about refilling water, and read allergy note on the reservation. My only issue was that server could not take my Apple pay at the table -- I had to walk across the restaurant to the computer- need to update the payment system.

Rooftop has a nice ambience for all different occasion types, I was on a first date, our table was put in an intimate corner off the enclosed patio per my request for some privacy and noting that it was a first date. So I appreciate the accommodations and effort that was taken into consideration. Staff and Food are always great. Nice variety on the menu, which is great. Drinks are always right on point.

Host did acknowledge special occassion and she was super friendly but how disappointing that birthdays and anniversaries get desserts etc but celebrating a military promotion which is 1000x harder to accomplish- does not
