Went here for my mom's birthday and we had such an amazing time! It was very sunny and the sun was beaming and they couldn't adjust an umbrella which was unfortunate but the overall experience and food was very enjoyable. I believe our server was a man named Joey and he was very attentive, kind, and treated us with good vibes! I also had the pineapple mimosa which was very refreshing with my meal. View is amazing and would definitely come back here again! All the food was delicious and I especially enjoyed their calamari and sausage!
The Rooftop was a wonderful experience. We did a weekday at the start of happy hour. Seating was easy, we had a lovely view of the ocean. We were greeted quickly. They had both food and drinks available on the happy hour menu as well as other selections. I started with the espresso martini, and my husband got the house Pinot Noir. Both were delicious. We also got the calamari to start. Calamari was crispy and came with both a tartar and cocktail sauce, both were spot on. We then moved on to entees. I got the crispy chicken sandwich. It was hot but a honey hot. I would've preferred a spicy hot, but still, it was cooked very well. It came with fries that were hot and good. My husband opted for the barrio tacos, which he said were delicious.. There was plenty of seating at the top of the rooftop. I would suggest going earlier versus later. Service was wonderful. The views were amazing.
Such a beautiful rooftop! The ocean view was amazing, especially around sunset. The drinks were good, and the whole atmosphere was relaxing but still fun. It's a great place to come with friends, enjoy a cocktail, and take in the view. The servers were nice as well. I would definitely come back!
I would rate 5 stars for the great service and breathtaking view of the ocean breeze. Food is decent and the price is okay. I love the way they compromised the drink which had taken off the menu. Was a great met up with friend from Seattle.
Come here during happy hour for an experience with better value. It's located inside La Casa del Camino. The decor fits perfectly with the beach and happy hour menu is available in all seating, so you can still grab an ocean view table. Staff is friendly and checks in throughout. Food is the typical wings, coconut shrimp, and calamari, which are all delicious and well portioned. Pair it with local draft beer or a classic cocktail for $12. No parking with the hotel so start looking for street parking as you approach the hotel
We were warmly greeted downstairs by Felix, who was incredibly friendly and welcoming. After climbing a couple flights of stairs, we discovered the rooftop lounge. Don't laugh--they do have an elevator! I'm not sure how we missed it, but at least we got a little exercise in. Once upstairs, we were greeted by Everett, who was tending the bar. He took our order, offered excellent recommendations, and provided great service throughout our visit. The rooftop views were a plus. From our seats, we could see the water, which immediately caught my attention. While there are homes visible below, my eyes naturally gravitated toward the scenic waterfront views. The drinks were delicious, we opted for a Summers drink. The empanadas were tasty, especially the chicken, the beef was decent. Combined with great service and affordable prices, it made for an enjoyable experience. We will definitely be back!
Parking is limited to metered street parking. The Rooftop Lounge is located inside La Casa Del Camino Hotel, and while the views are beautiful, the food wasn't that great. I visited for brunch and ordered the Avocado Toast, which was disappointing, especially for $19. It came on whole wheat bread, with one slice with avocado spread and the other with what seemed like cream cheese (though I wasn't entirely sure). I ended up having to assemble it myself. The Brussels sprouts appetizer was good, though. Overall, I'd come back for the view and maybe drinks, but not for the food. Recommendation(s): - Brussel Sprouts Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - Street parking with a meter - Located inside the Casa Del Camino Hotel
walked in the rooftop lounge and it was really pretty, they took about 5-8 minutes to get 8 of us seated. no it was not busy. we sat down and didn't get any menus , waited for about 10 minutes and the guy came up to our table asking if we're ready to order..how can we order with no menus? anyways 5 minutes later we get our menus , and he doesn't come back until like 10 minutes later? then we finally got our drinks and the server spilled the entire glass of lemonade on my legs aka my crotch area so it literally looked like i peed myself. the server apologized but personally i don't think an apology is enough, they should just give the lemonade for free at least. 30 minutes pass and we finally get our food! but my chicken san which had a hair in it. this place really is beautiful and has so much potential but the service and sanitation is NOT IT.
We dined here over the wknd. Service was great! They have tons of mixed drink options but only a few beer options. They do also have mocktails. Everyone's food was decent. The views and walking through the beautiful hotel to cool off were what makes the experience!
I had a great time here. The views were stunning and the staff were very friendly. I got the cheeseburger and it was nice and juicy. The fries were very good too.
Such a cool experience. A perfect, unobstructed view of the ocean while you enjoy good eats and yummy crafted cocktails. They even provide lap blankets upon request if and when you get a little chilly from the ocean breeze. It's at the tip of the La Casa de Camino hotel, which we were guests at for our anniversary, but most of the patrons at the lounge popped in from the street. It definitely felt like a locals spot. It was super busy, we were lucky to get a table. A destination spot for sure. I would return again when I'm in the area
GREAT spot in Laguna. Went here during brunch time, I believe our server was Nathan, he was awesome. Food was delicious and came out in decent time. Beautiful view of the ocean. Could only imagine what it's like during sunset. Will be going back, and would recommend to anyone visiting.
The view and drinks here are unbelievable along with service. Their food options are ok, nothing special: guacamole had no flavor, seafood ceviche tasted blend, lacked seasoning. Will be back for the view, drinks and service again.

Been here a couple times now. The food is decent. The service staff is definitely running 1000 miles per hour. Seems like this place is always understaffed. The view is amazing. Overlooking Laguna beach so you can't beat that. I'd recommend this place for grabbing a drink and seeing the sunset. Cheers. read more

Rooftop Lounge is such a gem in Laguna Beach! The views alone are absolutely breathtaking -- cute local spot with ocean breeze, golden hour skies, and a coastal vibe that makes it feel like a mini vacation. We ordered the steak bites and wow -- delectable, perfectly cooked, tender and flavorful. Birria tacos were excellent. I would just add the birria juices on the side for dipping. They had a delicious green salsa non spicy! Definitely a highlight of the evening. I also had the pomegranate martini and it was chef's kiss -- slightly tart with a sugar rim that balanced it out beautifully. So refreshing! Only reason it's not a full five stars is because the bread served with our baked brie had a few pieces that were moldy. Mistakes happen, and thankfully the staff corrected it right away without hesitation. They were kind and accommodating, but noticeably busy -- but they were decently fast. Overall, would absolutely come back. The ambiance and those coastal views are unmatched! Perfect spot for a sunset date night or chill catch-up with friends. read more

This is the place to be for sunset with a cocktail in hand. We got a skinny margarita and an espresso martini both were good. We also got the coconut shrimp (yum) and the baked brie which was also good. The view is just too good from every angle you get gorgeous views of the ocean! read more
This spot is literally hidden above a boutique hotel, like a coastal speakeasy for people who brunch in linen. We wandered around like confused tourists for a second, but once we found it--WOW. Instant mood shift. Beach views for days. You could bring your situationship here and almost trick them into thinking you're classy. We came on a holiday weekend with no reservation and somehow got seated upstairs right away (bless the crowd gods). The space is on the smaller side, but tables are well spaced, and no one was breathing down our necks--10/10 for chillness. The food? Pricey, yes--but this is Laguna Beach, not Costco. * The wonton tacos with ahi tuna were crispy, fresh, and the kind of bougie bite-sized thing you eat with your pinky slightly lifted. * The whipped ricotta and pita was decent--nothing mind-blowing, but it gave the table something to dip into while making beachy small talk. * The guava meatballs were juicy, delicious, and dangerously easy to inhale. * The potato wedges with mystery aioli? Crispy. Golden. Basically the Beyoncé of the table. But let's talk about the real MVP: the margarita tree. Yes, TREE. Complete with mini Patron bottles hanging like citrusy ornaments from heaven. Each flavor was fun and festive--like a boozy holiday for your mouth. Perfect spot for a daytime hang, casual drinks with friends, or a first date where you want to look like you have your life together (even if you're spiraling inside). Will definitely be back for more margs and meatballs. read more

Great food, friendly service and amazing view of the sunset! Went right as the sun was setting and it was perfect! All the tapas we ordered were amazing! read more
Came here on the 4th of July to celebrate, they're one of the very few places open today! The view is absolutely gorgeous, high above the local houses overlooking the ocean and all of Laguna Beach. We got a few appetizers and a burger with a side salad to share. Started with the ceviche which was very fresh and delicious. If you like beef don't skip the steak skewers, they were really good with a refreshing side of cucumber salad and fried onions. Ordered the brusslels sprouts that were very tasty if not a bit unconventional with raisins. If you like brussels sprouts then get them, you won't be disappointed. Finished the apps with their smokey chipotle wings. They were a bit sweet with a nice little kick, came with a side of veggie sticks and ranch. Great start to the meal! For the main we split a double smash burger with a side caesar salad. The burger was cooked nicely with a good crust and flavor. The caesar was very good with parmesan crusted house made croutons, and the caesar dressing was delicious. We made reservations and they seated us quickly. Definitely make a reservation as the space fills up easily. The server Phillip was very nice and on top of everything. He took a few pics for me and my fiancé to commemorate the afternoon. Great food, amazing view, awesome service! We'll definitely visit the Rooftop Lounge more in the future! read more
I really didn't care for this place. The food was very mediocre and the restaurant itself looks a bit older/run down than the photos everyone posts. On top of that, all the staff are very young.. which is fine if you're on top of it, but the service was slow and our waitress didn't have a very positive attitude. The boys were nice, helping with our umbrella that kept bouncing up and down, but nonetheless, maybe get some older waitresses/waiters depending on what kind of customers you want to bring in. Presentation wise the food was eh. The worst item was the asian salad (very interesting as I'm not sure how you mess up a salad...) The cabbage seemed boiled. It was bland and soggy. I wouldn't come back. I would've thought the views or atmosphere would make up for it, but I also didn't care for it. read more

Great way to spend Father's Day weekend at the bar watching US Open. They have updated decor with shades of ocean blue. Menu and Food has also been updated. We loved the Mediterranean chop salad and the Spicy Fried Southern Chicken sandwich and it was delish! Brad was a great bartender too! One suggestion is to add custom chair pads to the bar seats to cover the gap for the high bar read more

Hello Alexandra…
Latest visit was very nice! Service was superb and the view is as always very stunning! Happy hour specials are on both food and drinks! The food options are pretty good and reasonably priced. There are heat lamps to keep warm on a cold day, loved that. Service was fast efficient and friendly. Parking was not too bad on the street during weekdays. read more

Hi Hannah…
AMAZING!

I will definitely be back food view and service all amazing! read more
This place was hidden to get to(which is cute) but then the host stand is half way into the restaurant(which is confusing). They took our names and quoted us 25 minutes. 10 minutes later we got a text about our table being ready. They had made a table happen! Unfortunately it wasn't near the glass so there could be a view, but we were still grateful for having been seated sooner than quoted. We're sat. They bring waters. And then nothing. No one comes to check on us for maybe 10 minutes. At this point we're ready to place our orders. Finally, after our server has walked past us already like 3 times before, empty handed, the server comes and greets us, we tell her we're ready. In between then and when the food came she did not check on us once. Our waters were empty and the cup was scratched. When the food did come, the server didn't bring it. The host did. Then the server never came back for us to ask for sauce. Very inattentive. We had to ask for our server twice. had we gotten a good view I'm sure it would've been a little more worth it. read more
Came here on a Friday night in March. Know it's not really peak time for rooftop bars in Laguna but thought I'd still swing by. We got there around 7pm and our server (Tyler) told us when we sat down that last call is in 30 min. Wow, last call at 7:30pm on a Friday night? Kinda sucks. Looking back I can understand their point of view since this bar does reside in a hotel and people on the rooftop above someone's hotel room Is understandably noisy. Tyler was an ok server, smelled like a Hollister (sorry dude but pls lay off alittle bit). We also ordered 2 drink and some fry's and he had us repeat it. lol like he wasn't listing the first time. Drinks were good and fry's were ok. Ambiance is also pretty relaxing. Last call being 7:30pm, Tyler not listening/smelling like Hollister and fry's being mid is why I Gota put 3/5 stars down. Not my top choice in rooftop bars in laguna. read more
