It was a very enjoyable experience! The ambience was chic and trendy. UFC was playing at the bar. Our server was communicative and informative. Food was amazing and filling. Great presentation of food.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Darion Lowenstein · Oct 2025

The setting is wonderful on the sixth floor and next to the pool with a sprawling outdoor deck. Service was good and they were on it! The food is just meh. In SoCal the bar for tacos and Mexican food is high; and if you are going to charge a premium for these it better be good. Had the tacos and tuna ceviche and it wasn’t bad but it wasn’t good. Everything just tasted odd and off. I would go back if the menu was updated but all the food was weird.

Came for lunch and ordered the Ceviche "Atún Pacífico" which was $22. The server told me that it didn't come with chips and that I would have to buy it separately which is ridiculous already. The amount of food is just pathetic. The food itself is mediocre at best and took almost 20 mins to come when there were maybe 10 other people at the restaurant. The servers are nice, but the quality of service isn't great. Forgot to give me a spoon so had to wait another 10 minutes before I can flag someone down. Rooftop is cool, but that is about the only good thing about this place. I will never pay to eat here again and just go across the street to real restaurants.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Henry Nowakowski · Mar 2026

We are local and wanted a rooftop Friday evening. The space is amazing, the service was as expected, but the food was sad. This is a Mexican restaurant in Southern California. We started with the QUESO FUNDIDO CON TEQUILA which comes with a basket of warm corn tortillas. The queso was unfortunately just a small cast iron skillet of Jack cheese, not terrible but absolutely nothing special about it at all. The first basket of tortillas was kind of warm but the tortillas themselves were so stiff they closer resembled tostadas. The server was embarrassed and brought us a second basket but unfortunately this batch wasn't a whole lot better. You can't be a Mexican restaurant and be unable to serve corn tortillas that are edible again we are in Southern California. Our second plate was the ATUN

Had a great experience coming here to eat for my friends bday. The food was great, loved the ambiance and our waiter Quin went above and beyond. I really liked the vibe here and food price was pretty good for a hotel.:)
