    Server Will is always kind and attentive and friendly. He transforms the entire experience into a comfortable and fun meal out. Took care of one of my friends today who found her portion of the same dish substantially smaller, with speed and a smile.

    Food was wonderful ~ this is our second time since they have re opened as BH. Carpaccio is outstanding as are the ribs, pork chop and the Asian noodle salad. They were out of Ahi tuna and not serving the same pinot noir as our first visit. Seems like they are still working out some kinks. Our food came out almost too quickly ~ would have preferred a more leisurely meal.

    recently took my daughter and my one-year-old grandson on a special outing for the first time, and it was a delightful experience. My grandson was absolutely thrilled, giggling and exploring his surroundings with wide-eyed wonder. The food we enjoyed was delicious, bursting with flavor, and I managed to savor every bite, happily finishing my plate. Our server, Jazmin, was incredibly sweet and welcoming, making us feel right at home with her warm demeanor and attentive service. I left with my heart full and can't wait to return for another wonderful visit! Thank you Jazmin

    We hadn't been to Rooftop since before covid and were totally wowed. Of course, where else would you want to be on a warm, sunny winter day but perched atop Walnut Creek looking on Mt. Diablo and the surrounding hills. We arrived for lunch and all three of us loved our meals -- the dumpling starter was fantastic, and everyone loved their lunch (shrimp tacos, pappardelle/caesar, salmon/caesar). Our server was fantastic, the support staff attentive, the vibe was chill and the music great. Who could ask for anything more. Rooftop is now at the top of our WC dining list.
