Food was delicious with the Sunday brunch
Not good, very slow. Picked it for convenience, right at the hotel.

Based on the reviews, The Rooftop is a restaurant atop the Carté hotel in San Diego’s Little Italy. It offers great views and a fantastic vibe, with a giant big screen TV for watching the game. The atmosphere is sophisticated and the setting is cool, though the open air space can be freezing even with heaters. The food menu has changed under new management; some find the current choices "meh" and not elevated for the price. Specific meals mentioned include the Specialty Paloma drink, tuna tostada, bone marrow, apple arugula salad with steak, and a poke bowl with hard and crunchy rice. The service can be slow, and orders may be forgotten. Despite this, the rooftop is a go-to for a chill afternoon with friends, featuring a very large seating area with usually no wait. Natalie provides the best drinks at the bar.
