    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

    Had a nice lunch on Friday at Rooftop. This spot has continued to provide a quality meal with a nice atmosphere and excellent service. Our waiter on Friday - I believe his name was Carlos - was outstanding making sure that we were well taken care of. The food was fresh and delicious and the wine set the right tone for a Friday afternoon One of my go-to places in Walnut Creek...I'll definitely be back.
