The Rooftop at The Wayfarer Downtown LA

Kim

GREAT DTLA ROOFTOP- went here with coworkers a week ago. Very cool space to enjoy some great cocktails, food, views, and music. The menu is fun and the food we ordered was great. The service was quick and helpful. They have a pool to the side. Will definitely go back now that’s it’s roof top season!

Don’t come here - vibes are way off. If you’re looking for a rooftop restaurant in DTLA, I’d suggest checking out Perch or Pilot for a better experience. Came here with a friend on Friday night around 10:50pm and we were walk-ins. Even though we were told that no more walk-ins were accepted, I saw a few tables with no reservations sign on them. I asked the hostess if we could sit at the bar, and though it was free seating, the hostess was discomfited and said we should leave because there weren’t seats available at that moment. My friend then made a reservation via OpenTable for a table at 11pm (10 minutes later), though in hindsight, we shouldn’t have made a reservation for a place that clearly did not want us there. We were seated 15 minutes past our reservation time and no one came to our table to greet us for another 10 minutes. In short, the service (or lack of it) left much to be desired.

What a fun rooftop dining/bar experience right in downtown LA! As a cookbook author, I always enjoy eating out and appreciate good food, nicely plated. The Rooftop did not disappoint. I had a drink at the bar ( a lovely Moscow Mule) and the ahi tartare along with the peanut noodles the first night and enjoyed it so much, the second night I had the Ahi tartare again with the beet salad, then a glass of red wine and the beignets with warm raspberry sauce for dessert as the sun was setting over the city. Everything was well composed, super fresh and perfectly cooked. I would absolutely come back. The view is amazing, the service professional and the good really delicious. The ambience is fun and casual, with twinkle lights and heaters for diners' comfort. Lisa Steele Author of The Fresh Eggs Daily Cookbook

Good views! However the host disappointed us by not giving us a table closer to the glass wall inspite of prior reservation and especially when there were quite a few vacant tables. Although food was great but Service was ok, they didn't had everything written on the menu and said no for a couple of items we ordered.
