Nestled high above the bustling streets of Walnut Creek, Rooftop Restaurant has become my go-to spot for unforgettable dining experiences with loved ones. Whether it's a cozy dinner with my parents, a celebratory outing with coworkers, or a fun night out with friends, Rooftop never disappoints.The crown jewel of Rooftop is undoubtedly its breathtaking view of the city. From the moment you step onto the terrace, you're greeted by a panoramic vista that captures the essence of Walnut Creek in all its splendor. Whether it's the twinkling lights of the cityscape at night or the vibrant hues of the sunset painting the skyline, every visit offers a new perspective on this charming city.But Rooftop isn't just about the view—it's also about the culinary delights that await. The menu boasts a delectable array of dishes, each crafted with fresh, locally sourced ingredients and bursting with flavor. From mouthwatering appetizers to decadent entrees and indulgent desserts, there's something to satisfy every palate.And let's not forget about the drinks—Rooftop's cocktail menu is as impressive as its view. Whether you're in the mood for a classic cocktail or a creative concoction crafted by the talented mixologists, each sip is a delight to the senses.But perhaps what sets Rooftop apart is the atmosphere. Whether you're enjoying a romantic dinner under the stars or mingling with friends over drinks, the ambiance is always warm, inviting, and infused with a sense of camaraderie.In short, Rooftop Restaurant is more than just a dining destination—it's an experience. With its unbeatable view, tasty food, and welcoming atmosphere, it's no wonder it's become a favorite among locals and visitors alike.

Fantastic experience. The waiter was very friendly and gave us great recommendations. We had multiple appetizers instead of entrees and were not disappointed. Oysters, pork belly, fried cauliflower, beers and goat cheese, etc. all wonderful. And the dessert of butter cake was delicious and decadent. Can't wait to go again!
Went for dinner last night around 6:30. We ordered lamb chops and arugula salad with chicken. The lamb was mostly bone and they gave a little scoop of mashed potatoes. Definitely a plate not worth $39 dollars.On the salad, the chicken was dry and the avocado pieces were hard like stone.Overall, the dinner was lousy. No fresh/ripe ingredients and the portions were small. Never coming here for dinner again.

Our entire family LOVED the dinner at Rooftop during our family reunion (last October) and some thought it was the best large dinner party they'd ever experienced. The private area setting, the excellent food & drinks, and extra help from Luis and Nicky were wonderful. The event director, Brooklyn, was so responsive and thorough during the planning process; her attention to detail and efficient email replies were exceptional. The special attention for one relative's celiac needs ahead of time and the offering of a kids menu for the little ones were also much appreciated, as was the option for the corkage fee and an adjustment to the large party dinner menu (to add the amazing dumplings). Our family group of 25 people ranged in age from 3 to 89! Thank you all.

This place was very basic. The food was lacking in flavor.. the atmosphere was also lacking.. felt empty even when it was full. Was quite loud so hard to have an intimate conversation. The drinks were okay. The best thing about this place is the service, the gentleman was really wonderful. It’s definitely more bar vibes than restaurant vibes.

It was sunny on my 2/25 bday and we were greeted with a sincere, sunny smile by the hostess! Windows open, happy and attentive server, delicious drinks (creative cocktail menu), amazingly tasty cauliflower, great beef twist on lettuce wraps, tacos were loaded with a shrimp! As busy as it was, we were never rushed. Elegance in an upbeat, casual setting. Assorted high and low tables to accommodate anyone. First time for the 4 of us and can't wait to go back!
The best experience was given to me by our server Brian. Me and my lovely fiance were celebrating our anniversary and he was very helpful when it came to what beverages and food items we should try. I am grateful to have had this lovely night with her as I had never been to this place but the ambience, service, and food were high quality.
We have been here many times. The food has always been amazing but this last time we went the food was not great. Every dish and entree we ordered had some sort of soy sauce in it. We were not satisfied.

What a fantastic experience! This was our first time at the Rooftop and will definitely be back. The drinks, food, and service were amazing. It was rainy when we went, so we couldn't sit outside and enjoy the view, but we will absolutely check it out on a nice day.

We got extremely sick from eating here on Valentine's day. After speaking with one of my coworkers who has also eaten here twice in the past, they also got sick both times. The food tasted really good, and the service was great, but we will never come back because of this experience. This is the only location where we both ate food from, so it couldn't have been anywhere else. Please have your chef and cooks improve their hygiene or cross contamination procedures. The bill was too expensive for the sickness we endured.
