From the moment you walk in, the whole vibe hits you--the moody, neon-lit ambiance sets the tone perfectly. It feels elevated, a little edgy, and honestly just the kind of spot you want to spend your night at. The music is curated so well. Not too loud, not too mellow--just the right balance where you can vibe, have a conversation, and still feel the energy of the room. You can tell they actually care about the experience, not just throwing a playlist together. Now let's talk about the drinks... because that's really where they shine. Every cocktail feels intentional and crafted with care. You can taste the quality immediately--nothing watered down, nothing basic. They have a really cool mix of classic cocktails and modern twists, and even the familiar drinks feel elevated. It's the kind of place where you want to try something new every round because you trust the bartenders know exactly what they're doing. Service was on point too. Friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain drinks and made great recommendations, which made the whole experience even better. I came in not knowing what to expect, and left already planning my next visit. If you're in Uptown Whittier and looking for a spot with great energy, amazing cocktails, and a full vibe--The Vandalist is it. Thank me later

The star was that Hibiscus Margarita. The drink is as refreshing as it looks. I'd recommend it and come back again to try another one! Thanks, Alchemy Craft! ( ^_^)b

From the moment we arrived, everything was absolutely perfect. The ambiance was warm, stylish, and welcoming -- the kind of atmosphere that feels both upscale and comfortable at the same time.

What truly made the experience exceptional, though, was the service. The staff was attentive, kind, and incredibly organized. They made sure everything flowed smoothly so I could relax and enjoy every moment. A very special thank you to the general manager, Hugo Cano. Hugo went above and beyond to ensure my baby shower was flawless. His professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care made all the difference. It's rare to find leadership so dedicated to creating memorable experiences for guests. If you're looking for a venue with amazing food, outstanding service, and a beautiful atmosphere for your next celebration, I highly recommend Rokka Whiskey Bar and Grill.

The service was also great - everyone was friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. The food was yummy too - we had the chicken wings and fried pickles, and both were great picks to snack on while enjoying the drinks. This is definitely the kind of place that can easily become a go-to spot to watch sports, listen to live entertainment, or just hang out with family and friends (a family friendly environment is definitely a plus). We'll definitely be back!

The open indoor/outdoor layout is super inviting, and the outdoor area gives kids room to run around too. The bar is a standout. They've got great beer, wine, and classic cocktails, but what really impressed me is how knowledgeable the bartenders are. They clearly know their craft and offer some really high-end spirits as well. Since CAPO is located in a food hall, there are tons of great food options and cuisines to choose from, which makes it easy for everyone to find something they like. They also have AMAZING entertainment...from salsa nights to R&B singers to country music. Plus they show all the major sports and sporting events.

Caesar salad (4/5) - this was your classic Caesar salad that accompanied our pasta perfectly. Fried zucchini (5/5) - I love that the zucchini was sliced and crispy. The breading to zucchini ratio was perfect and paired perfect perfectly with a marinara sauce. Short rib pappardelle (5/5) - this pasta dish was the absolute highlight of our meal. In order comes with two servings, which is more than enough pasta for a second meal for two people. The short rib was flavorful and tender, and the Alfredo sauce and fresh pasta were amazing.

The steaks are usually great but there was inconsistency with all of them this night, and when your bill is about $500 for 2 adults and 4 kids you expect better. Highlight was the purple cabbage and the calamari. The biggest letdown was the server didn't stay true to the service, she didn't make the baked potato, she just said butter first sour cream and chives and that's not what I wanted for my kids their first visit. Anyhow might give it another shot but the kids didn't like it so maybe just the wife and I. The old fashions drink I had came out good the first time and horrible the next.

I went with only masizo not wanting to deal with the bone, and my son ordered sopa de tortilla. The consome the birria comes with has rice and garbanzos, which was interesting. My son ate a little bit of his soup and asked me for some of my food after I gave him some to try. He finished most of my consome, but I was happy he preferred the birria as he can be a little picky. The meat was very tender and had a really good flavor. The salsas served were just okay, neither the red or green were spicy at all. My only complaint was that the meat had a lot of fat... enough to fill one of the tortillas and make a hefty taco lol. Definitely worth the try though.
