Topside Terrace offers a "fantastic experience" with its rooftop bar and "delicious apps" during Social Hour.

It’s a beautiful venue amongst the downtown skyline. When they have music I recommend sitting near the glass for a good view. The staff are attentive and the food was delicious!

Service was terrible, even though there were very few guests there. Food was not that good for the prices they are charging. I ordered an iced coffee with a splash of half-and-half, and they seemingly brought me a cup of half-and-half with a splash of coffee.

Fantastic experience for a rooftop bar. The happy hour menu was great food and fancy drinks. We had a full meal plus drinks for the two of us from the HH menu. Our server was extremely nice and attentive. We are just visiting California for the weekend but I would put this one on my list to come back to!

It was barely even sprinkling and they cancelled my reservation because it was « raining ». Caused us a whole hassle to find somewhere nice last minute for such an important dinner.

Enjoyed 'Social Hour' on a recent beautiful Sunday afternoon. Delicious apps and great service. Bonus for visiting on Sunday is that metered parking was available near the venue and free. We will be back!
