This place is a great spot for hosting dinner parties! It's located on the rooftop of the AC Hotel in El Segundo, and the views definitely add to the experience. We came here to celebrate my cousin's graduation after she became a doctor, and it was the perfect place for a special occasion. The food was delicious, rich, flavorful, and satisfying. The drinks were great too! I enjoyed the wine and champagne, which were smooth and not overly strong. A special shoutout to our server, Daniel, who did an amazing job taking care of our group. He was attentive, friendly, and always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. One thing to keep in mind: it can get pretty windy up there since you're close to the airport, so bring a light jacket or dress accordingly. Thankfully, they have fire pits and heat lamps that help keep everyone warm and comfortable. Overall, we had a wonderful time and I'd definitely come back to try more items on the menu. Thank you for a great experience! read more

Stopped here tonight before dinner. I was here before a couple of years back, it was a non-issue. Tonight's experience was a total disappointment, much need for someone in leadership to improve. Ambiance is nicely decorated, it's part of the hotel, so just walk right in, pass the lobby, take the elevator to the 6th floor and you are there. Parking is free and plenty of it outside, do not feel the need to pay. Service: Horrible, I would give her a zero if I could. We had the woman server, reddish hair, one who I thought would be seasoned. Oder took her about 8 minutes, she then walk away and not said why. It was apparent that there was an issue with the table. Drinks took about another 12 mins to arrive and when they did it would have been great if she had spilled them. Drinks were horrible. My rum and coke was served flat and warm. Ice was dirty, seemed like no preventative maintenance takes place. No napkins were served, and at no time did she stop by to check in on us. Bartenders... not presentable at all. I didn't know what I was looking at. There was no way for me to tell if he was a bartender, or anyone else making the drinks. He seemed hot and sweaty, completely off, and wearing some sort of white T-Shirt., again, you couldn't event tell that it was a bartender making that drink, the entire experience was horrible. The drinks were so bad that we took 2 sips and said it's time to go. Waitress came by, we checked out and she just stood there waiting for a tip. We felt forced to tip her, when in reality I wanted to say, please quit your job. Folks, if you are looking for a nice classy drink, or something made right, do your self a favor and go elsewhere. if you are staying there, either go to the lobby bar, or better yet, skip out and head to Manhattan beach. No one should pay over $50.00 for poorly made drinks, served on a dirty glass, warm and with less than mediocre service. read more

My wife and I recently visited Flora Rooftop for drinks and appetizers. Overall, it was a mixed experience. The food was good, but nothing particularly memorable for the price. The highlight of the night was definitely the drinks. We asked for something fun, and the manager surprised us with a couple of off-menu cocktails that were creative, delicious, and honestly the coolest drinks we've had in a while. They were pricey, but the presentation and quality made them worth trying. Unfortunately, the service took a turn after that. The manager disappeared for what I assume was a break, leaving a single server to cover the entire rooftop. We completely understand that things happen and it wasn't the server's fault, but we ended up waiting around an hour to an hour and a half without anyone checking on us. We wanted to order another round of drinks, but the server was constantly rushing past trying to keep up with everyone else. Eventually, we gave up, walked to the bar ourselves, paid our tab, and left. Flora has a great atmosphere, beautiful views, and some genuinely impressive cocktails. If they can improve the staffing during busy hours, this place would easily earn a higher rating from me. read more

My friends and I were looking for a cute rooftop bar near kia forum so we decided to check out Flora. First off, the vibe is lovely. It's located inside a hotel and the rooftop was decorated with florals and there were couches near the fire pits. If you sit at the fire pit, the table is going to be super small by the way. I ordered the grapefruit grove, but they ran out of grapefruit so I had to sub for pineapple. The drink still tasted good. My friends ordered the bird of paradise and the LA fruit cart and they liked their drinks as well. For food, we all tried the flora fries, garlic parmesan wings and the ahi tuna poke nachos. This is where it was lacking. I only liked the flora fries. They were crispy and garlicky. However, the garlic parmesan wings were extremely bland. I couldn't taste any flavor, we had to ask for some salt. The ahi tuna poke was not what i was expecting. I literally got 4 small pieces of tuna on some crispy wonton chips and it was $23 lol. Overall, if I were to come back, I would just come for drinks and ambiance but not the food. read more

Fabulous roof top bar. I've only been a few times but it's in a good quiet area and has a great 360 view of El Segundo/LAX area. If you go at night they turn on the fire which also helps keep you warm but also adds a nice ambiance and romantic touch. The food is also great but maybe a little pricey. The service is usually quick and attentive. I always enjoy going there and they usually also play nice music. read more

This was our first time at Flora and it was an amazing experience. Zoe was helping us. She is spectacular. We had our grandson with us who just adored her. Zoe made sure we always had items that we ordered. It became a very busy night and she handled all of the tables with professionalism and great customer service. Everyone who's worked that night were so attentive and nice. It was a bit windy but the view was awesome. We dined outside. It was quite lovely. My hubby loved their Dirty Martini. The lemon drops were so good. We parked across the street. Parking seems a bit weird. The restaurant is on the top floor of the hotel. We will be back. Food was so delicious. We tried the wings, steak and fries. Everything was so clean. Staff are very presentable. Thank you Zoe for being so awesome. read more

I enjoy a nice rooftop and good weather, so when this past Saturday came through warm and sunny, my homegirl and I felt personally invited outside. Naturally, we accepted. We walked in with no reservations and were promptly seated by the bonfire. Our waitress was extremely kind and knew the menu like the back of her hand, which is always appreciated. Once we got settled, we started the evening with drinks and water (because balance) and then proceeded to have a full-blown yap session while the drinks kept making their rounds. Good conversation, good vibes, and a cozy rooftop moment -- can't really ask for more than that. If you're in the area, stop by and show them some love. P.S. There's street parking... and it's free, which in itself deserves a round of applause. read more

This place is an adorable rooftop bar in the AC hotel on the 6th Floor. You can take the special elevator on the left or the regular ones on the right. There's free parking on the street so you don't need to park in the hotel. Our group got the grilled chicken sandwich and fries, and heard it was good. The flat bread was also tasty, although cut a little interesting in a diagonal shape. The flora fries were huge, perfectly cooked and with a lot of garlic! It was really good. I ordered the ahi tuna poke with the rice and ir was perfect. The crispy rice wasn't rock hard like other places, so you don't feel like you chipped a tooth. It was a little soft and chewy. For drinks, I got the Fall Spritz, and sorry I can't believe I didn't take a picture of it but it was delish! The service was good, we went before 8pm Social Hour so it wasn't as busy and the servers were attentive. There were only 2 for the entire roof top. It did get a lot busier at 8pm. This place is super cute for a date night and a lot of fire pits and heaters made it nice and cozy. read more

The Flora rooftop is a great space. The center fire table is perfect. Surrounded by sofas and umbrellas, it's inviting, warm and vibrant. Our server was friendly and attentive. We ordered wings, edamame and entrees. Wedge salad worth steak and the Asian chicken salad. They were fantastic. Definitely recommend. I had the Jalisco manhattan. Delicious. I loved this place. read more

We came for a nice dinner before we headed to our flight at LAX nearby. It took forever for us to get properly served, though. The service was incredibly slow and the kitchen was even slower. I'm not sure if the server we had was the only one working that day or if it was because we looked different from the rest of their "demographic" that our server had no issue being timely with. There were times where our server even ignored us as we tried to get her attention. She never checked on us, and we were getting upset because we had no water for over thirty minutes. Despite this, I must say the food was very delicious and their drinks were strong but still pretty good. The ambiance is nice, as you overlook Los Angeles. Our heater broke during the dinner so we got freezing toward the end. Overall, a very interesting experience but the food is good, just takes a very long time. read more

It was pretty quiet here so we walked in but were told that since we didn't check in they didn't come by to provide service. Our bad I guess. Even then, it took 20-30 minutes for our drinks to come, despite watching other tables that arrived later get served before us. Food took a very long time and things weren't really coming out right. When we got our bill, it took another 20 minutes to get our servers attention to take our payment. Strange experience. The roof is very nice though and was a good spot to hang out. read more

We had some time before the Nine Inch Nails concert and decided to check this place out, as we favor rooftop bars/lounges. Flora is located on top of the AC Marriott Hotel. It wasn't too busy when we got there, which was great. We decided to sit outside, the weather was great. We started off with a couple cocktails that our very friendly and energetic bartenders mixed to perfection. I had been wanting to try the charcuterie, and it certainly did not disappoint. It was such a generous portion we could have settled for just that, but felt adventurous and ordered the wings and truffle fries. Food was delicious, service was excellent. Will definitely be back. read more

Great spot to hang out and enjoy the atmosphere. Food: The food is okay, it's mostly basic flavors but it works for the environment. The downfall is the menu because it's a QR Code which is fine but the QR Code is sooooo tiny and hidden on a miniature plant pot you end up asking for it. The drink selection is also limited unfortunately so keep ot simple. Service: The staff was great. Our waiter was super nice and checked on us. We didn't see a lot of staff around but they did a great job. Atmosphere: It's a cool vibe, super chill, definitely not a dress up location and the flames and heaters came through because it was cold but we never felt the cold weather. The layout is nice and it has plenty of seating areas for privacy and personal conversations. You can also sit around the flames which is really nice as well. Location: It's located in El Segundo at 2130 E. Maple Ave. At the A/C hotel. Price: It's average nothing is too expensive we had drinks and food all night for a big group and we stayed about 3 hours and it wasn't bad at all. read more

Flora Rooftop Bar - Lounges Near Me - El Segundo, California

This rooftop is a vibe! If I were local I'd be visiting often. The cabanas with fireplaces are cozy, the menu is limited but tastes exceptional and the music is flawless. Easily the best, most chill hotel rooftop I've been to. We went when they first opened for brunch & it was a family friendly environment. The service & views are great, our waiter was very attentive & provided great recommendations. They have heat lamps making it a good option even on chilly days. If sitting outside isn't your thing, they have indoor seating available. We ate family style & enjoyed it! My sister & I had mango & cranberry bottomless mimosas. For food, we ate charcuterie, garlic Parmesan wings & flora fries. The charcuterie had great variety, the wings were flavorful & crispy, and the french fries were topped with yummy herbs & Parmesan cheese. read more

Poor customer service. Never received menus until asked for them. No server came over to acknowledge us. We left to Fogo De Chao. Had a time there! read more

Had a girls night here and it was excellent ambiance. Ordered the charcuterie board. That feed all five of us. Drinks were excellent

Overall rating: average Ambience was nice with the fire pits and long fireplace and rooftop aesthetics. Service was lacking in the sense that no one introduced themselves by their name and did not follow through with their word. This happened 3 separate times with 3 different servers. They checked in on how we're doing after we finished our food and drinks. Drinks were solid. LOVE their NA menu!! Mushrooms tacos were basically naked - double tortilla wraps with mushrooms in it and a side of tortilla chips from Ralph's. Beef sliders and fries were good. Pumpkin olive oil cake was fine. Nothing special. TLDR - this is a spot for group social hour or simple date, not dinner. read more

Our ticket included a glass of champagne, and the pre-fixe menu was tasty (loved the espresso martini!). The service was great, they answered all our questions & the roses & dessert gifted at the end were a sweet touch. I wait to return and try the full menu! Highly recommend for a night out at a low key spot with nice vibes. read more

I'm surprised to find such a hidden gem nearby LAX. I genuinely enjoyed the venue and all the food and drinks I ordered. Food: 1)Flora Fries (Fries with truffle oil, parmesan cheese, parsley, roasted garlic aioli): Highly recommended. We enjoyed this so much, we ordered another plate! 2)Guac and chips(Chips with Guacamole and Mango salsa): Great to share with a large group. 3)Rooftop burger: Ingredients were fresh, meat was juicy and tender, nicely seasoned. Simply Delicious! 4)Chicken wings: It's cooked to perfection and oh so flavorful. Just look at the picture! 5) Drink: I ordered one of the signature cocktail. It was good. Service : Excellent considering our large group. Our server Crystal was patient, friendly and efficient! Thank you Crystal! Ambiance : Lovely, romantic and not overcrowded. There was live music when I was there in the evening. Perfect place for a date/group hangout. read more

Have stayed at the AC multiple times, but had never made it to the roof. Finally was in town and able to grab a cocktail at sunset. Nice escape to grab a little sunshine. With the chill in the air, fire pit was nice (they had patio heaters, as well). There are fresh herbs planted around the edges of the patio. Had the Rose Gimlet: gin, lime, simple syrup. Not too sweet and not too bitter. Perfect cocktail. I lucked out and only a few other couples when I was there, so I'm unsure of how busy it gets. I think you can make reservations online. read more

* BEST PRE SOFI-STADIUM COCKTAIL / BITES SPOT * Flora Rooftop Bar is fantastic!!!! We ate here for the first time before we went to the Beyoncé concert at Sofi Stadium and it was incredible! This place is the coolest, closest, most fun and exciting overall great vibe before a concert that you're gonna get! It's 15 minutes from the Sofi Stadium and it seems others have cracked the code too because a bunch of other people were here before the Beyoncé concert as well. We have been to Flora 3 times now (each time before a concert at the Sofi Stadium)! It is now the official PRE CONCERT dining experience! The rooftop is very well thought out. There are a good balance of sunny and more shade driven areas. They have garden and flower boxes (on theme to Flora) alongside the rooftop creating a beautiful atmosphere for plants and flowers to thrive. The cocktails are top notch! We didn't go for the signature cocktails but we had the usual expresso martini and dirty martini and they were exceptional! Everytime we come here we order the fries and chicken wings (separate dishes) and we are always pleased with the consistency! This place has the best staff. Everyone is super kind, attentive and down for your party to ask for recommendations. They have fabulous picture spots (as I mentioned perfect spot for pre-concert) around the rooftop. They have an amazing fireplace in the middle of the rooftop which really sets the ambiance! To get inside, you take the elevator up to the roof and the bathrooms are located inside the hallway. The parking is very easy on the street of the hotel (each time no problem) Flora is delicious, vivacious and addicting! read more

The bartenders here know their business, but the kitchens are a little slow, especially for the price. Paying $16 per cocktail, or $20-30 for some simple appetizers plates is fine. The view is good, the ambience is good, and the food is 30-50% overpriced, and it took over an hour to receive the flatbreads that we and an adjoining party ordered. Good quality, good drinks, but perhaps overpriced and understaffed. We weren't disappointed in any way, but it could have been better for the prices paid. read more

I've been wanting to go here for a while so I took my mom out for her birthday. When you first go up they have an outside and inside where you can choose where you want to sit. We chose outside and to sit by fireplace. The rooftop is on the small and intimate side. They don't have the most extensive menu and only two dessert choices. Parking is free for first two hours, get validation with valet! I wish they had more menu items but it's a cozy vibe. The waitresses are pretty nice and do check on you. They brought us the wrong order twice so maybe better direction and communication from the Kitchen but it wasnt a huge deal. The burger was delicious and I love the fries. They were salted perfectly. The chimichurri steak was my favorite and I was dying for more. It is on the smaller side of a portion, but is worth every bite. It comes with veggies and potatoes. I didn't have much veggies, but potatoes were delicious. Desserts they have are red velvet cake, and Keylime pie. read more

We had been looking forward to trying this place for quite a while. Finally, we took the plunge and made a reservation. It's at the top of the AC Marriott hotel, over in the area where the Lakers' training facility is located (and a great little place for breakfast burritos named Eat Fantastic - but that's another story). Parking is limited but they have a parking garage just past the valet / lobby to the left. Once inside the garage, you'll find the vast majority of the spots marked with "Parking for XXX only". We went up to the third floor before we could find a spot to park, only to find the elevator was out of order. Luckily, we are in decent shape so going down was easy and going up was okay. If you have limited mobility, I'd suggest using the valet or hope to find something on the street. Once inside, you'll see the hotel check-in area on your left and a lobby bar on your right. It was packed on the night we visited (a Tuesday). To get to Flora, just walk past the check-in, look for the entrance to the elevators to the left and go up to the top floor. Any one of the three elevators will take you there. On the top floor, you still have to sort of find your way there. Just exit to the north and you'll see it. There's an indoor area that leads to the outdoor patio. They have plenty of heating sources to keep you warm but a light jacket would be recommended for most, especially if you plan to stay after dark. Note, the validation for parking in the garage is only for two hours. No paper menus that we saw, you scan the QR code to order. We were disappointed in the limited menu. Really thought there's be more. We decided on the Mahi Mahi tacos and the beef sliders. Those two entrees, one glass of wine and one Old Fashioned came out to $96 before tip. Yep, $96. Just because you can see the airport doesn't mean it should cost your airport prices. Really, walk across the parking lot to Eat Fantastic and try to spend $100 for two. The presentation of the food was very nice. Looked well put together when both plates arrived. My sliders, ordered w/o tomato and w/o onions, came with tomatoes and onions. I just removed both from all three sliders and ate the burgers. Flavor was also very good but all three were cool in temperature. My wife had the Mahi Mahi tacos - again, presentation was very good. The tacos were good but the cilantro was overpowering and the rice was overcooked and a bit crunchy. Flavor of the fish was good but overall just an average dish for $26. You get three, street-sized tacos. I ordered an Old Fashioned and was disappointed to see it served in an opaque glass. Part of the experience of an Old Fashioned and seeing that beautiful single cube of ice in your delicious drink. Once again, flavor was good but in this case, presentation was lacking. When you are done, take your parking ticket to valet on the first floor, where the guys will talk to each other, ignoring the fact that they should be engaging the customers who are standing in front of them but, at the same time, taking the time to grab your ticket and validate it. Overall, it was an average experience. Some good, some bad but for over $100 for two, not worth it. Hope your experience is better than ours and...enjoy!!! read more

The patio and ambiance are A+, nice breeze. Hard to find with the gps. It's inside the Ace hotel on the 6th floor. They need to have better signage inside the hotel too. We ordered the mushrooms and fries, it's ok quality. The suggested replacement for sold out Stella was a good beer. Instagram friendly. Rey is an amazing waiter, very caring. It got better later on with the live music, I'm adding 1star!:) read more

Super cute spot with good drinks. The food is decent. Came in a Friday once and there was a DJ playing rally god hip hop.

Follow the red carpet to the designated elevator that will take you up to the 6th floor. The interior seating area was surprisingly generic after the buildup to get you there. The outdoor seating area was beautiful! A fire feature in the middle of the communal table was stunning and offered a good barrier so that you could carry on a conversation. A garden runs the perimeter and periodically the staff would come out and pick herbs for the dishes/drinks. The menu was very limited and the food was just ok (3). The drinks, DJ, service (shout out to Yanet), city views, fellow patrons and atmosphere were the best (5+)! We had a great time! read more

I love a good rooftop bar so I'm always on the hunt wherever I go! I was visiting LA in the summer of 2022 and stayed a night at the AC Hotel and decided to stop by this rooftop for a late night dinner. Pro tip: If you're anything like me and love rooftops but not the steep prices, come for their social hour from 8-9pm most nights and select menu items and drinks are half off! So guess what? I of course strategically went during social hour and let me just say everything was amazing! I ordered the Flora fries, Fattoush Salad with chicken and Front Porch Sour. All legit so good and then the view of sunset was just icing on the cake. I will say service was a bit slow but staff was friendly so it made up for it. If you're in the area you gotta stop by! read more
