    Bass Ceviche
    Nanase T.

    My boyfriend and I stayed at the Hoxton Hotel for our LA trip and decided to dine here for dinner as it was conveniently located on the rooftop of the hotel. We arrived around 5:30 PM on a Sunday without a reservation, but we were immediately seated upon arrival. The ambiance was relaxing and calm with a resort-like interior. Our server was attentive, yet very respectful of our private space and time, which we greatly appreciated. We never felt rushed, and were able to enjoy the relaxing time. Here is our order: Chicha No Nada with Pisco: A very refreshing drink! Adding pisco was a right choice, making it a perfect cocktail to start off the vacation. Bass Ceviche: A great Peruvian-inspired dish! Highly recommend adding the crispy quinoa crusts for additional $3. Wood-fired Skirt Steak: This dish is very similar to Lomo Saltado, which is our favorite Peruvian dish. Steak was cooked to perfection. Yuca Fries: This dish was very interesting, featuring chorizo, yuzu-cilantro, pickled ajis, and cotija. It was delicious and perfect as a side dish. While the food was excellent, the portions were quite small for dishes that are "meant to be shared" as descrived by our server. Albeit this, our dine-in experience was very positive and enjoyable overall.

    We had an 8:00 PM reservation at Cabra but didn't get seated until 8:50 PM. Thankfully, the managers were incredibly kind and took great care of us, which helped ease the long wait. Once we were seated, everything from that point on was spot on. We ordered the chicken empanadas, yuca fries, kingfish tiradito, and crispy pork, every single dish was packed with flavor and beautifully executed. The kitchen really knows what they're doing. Our server was also an absolute gem, super sweet, fun, and attentive throughout the night. Even though the delay was frustrating, the food and the service made up for it.

    Food, service, ambiance were all on point. As a guest staying at the hotel, this was a convenient, relaxing, and delicious treat. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates top quality, clean, Peruvian cuisine. Try the skewers, you'll thank me later.

    Delicious cider at Cabra LA

    Executive summary: amazing. This Peruvian inspired restaurant on top of the Hoxton hotel was the best surprise at the end of our California wine tour, and not because of wine. Crispy Pork Shank was amazing at night, and in the Picknick doggie bag the next day. We should have gone lighter on the other dishes, but no regrets. Bass Ceviche, quinoa & beet salad, and crispy broccoli were a wonderful combo. After wine tasting all week, Julian harvest cider and pisco sour made helped great palate cleansing. The beautiful rooftop location and wonderful service made us repeat offenders on our second night at the Hoxton.

    This place was a surprise dinner spot for a special day, and it turned out to be such a great experience! We got seated on the rooftop next to a little pool since there was a big group inside, but honestly, I loved it--amazing views up there. We ordered at the bar and they brought everything out to us. I had the wood-fired skirt steak and the Jalea Mixta--both were so flavorful and just hit the spot. It was a beautiful night overall. I'd definitely recommend this place for special dinners. Try going around golden hour--you'll get gorgeous photos and then enjoy the city lights after the sun goes down.

    On the rooftop of The Hoxton is this wonderful Peruvian restaurant. Their indoor outdoor seating is split with the beautiful pool deck offering beautiful views of DTLA city scape. We made reservations and were promptly seated. You can tell it gets more loud and lively longer into the night. Plates are tapas styled and filled with so much flavor. Every dish was incredible. Wood fired skirt steak was our favorite along with the chicken skewers. Something in the marinade and sauce that gave it a kick. Looking forward to coming once summer weather hits to fully take advantage of those views.

    Great view of downtown LA! Their dishes are tapa style and truly flavorful, The salmon ceviche was great. The steak skewers were yummy, the empanadas were a bit dry and too much dough. They had this amazing dish of cauliflower (forgot the name) but wooow! The most Flavorful veggie plate i ever had. Highly suggested if you are around DTLA.

    Kingfish Tiradito
    Darianna C.

    Really enjoyed it. Went here to celebrate my birthday and had a lovely time. The food was really original, with interesting twist on Peruvian food. Our server, Courtney, was amazing. She asked immediately if we had any dietary restrictions and when we informed her one of our party had a gluten allergy, she brought out a menu that she had specifically marked. She was incredibly knowledgeable and was able to ensure the items we ordered were gluten free. We had the ceviche, the tiradito, the choclo, the yuca fries, the pork shank, and cauliflower and everything was delicious. I was offered a yummy complementary dessert and the view was pretty great too.

    My favorite food experience in 2025 thus far! I spent my birthday here with a total of 8 people. It was such an enjoyable experience, their service was accomodating, fast and friendly. The food was phenomenal that it was hard to pick favorites. The semi-outdoor seating was warm enough for a winter night. Ambiance is warm lighting with hip decor. The food is tapa style so our table ordered a couple. The crowd favorite and I think are a must were the Bass Ceviche and Tuna&Tots. I think you can never go wrong especially the dishes are by Chef Stephanie Izard. The dishes are more Peruvian inspired but as someone who loves Peruvian food, I enjoyed them. The Papa Huancaina paired so well with dishes, just the right amount of crisp with the potatoes and the sauce wasn't too overwhelming. There is valet parking at the Hoxton but also plenty of parking garages around. I can't wait to come back! Note: if you have a party of 9 or more, you're required to do their pre-fixe.

    Why was I so late to the party? Came here to hang out and try a "new spot" and soooooo do recommend! Servers were very attentive and quick with food and drinks. Ambiance is great as well, sitting on the rooftop of the The Hoxton hotel. If you want to impress make reservations here for an evening of great food and drinks with an amazing view. Side note, all menu items are Peruvian influenced and if you have any good allergies let your server know!! Otherwise, sit down, relax and enjoy!

    Dessert was delicious

    Buddy of mine suggested we come here for rooftop view, food and drinks and loved it! What a beautiful venue and loved being on the rooftop. Food was delicious, staff were very accommodating and the catch up with friends was wonderful! Definitely come hang out here when in town, this hotel rooftop is great!

    Chicken Thigh Skewers - 10/10 Juicy and tender chicken (3 1" pieces of chicken per skewer) with a yummy peanut sauce
    Shinesh P.

    Food: Chicken Thigh Skewers - 10/10 Juicy and tender chicken (three 1" pieces of chicken per skewer) with a yummy peanut sauce Crab Causa - well balanced textures 8/10 Wood Fired Skirt Steak 7/10 steak (about four 2" pieces) was nice and juicy but there was just too much sauce Yuca Fries - 10/10 must try crunchy steak cut fries w/ chorizo Papas Huancaina - 10/10 must try also cruchy smashed potato with cheese portion size: It is not shareable. Please get your own entree or a bunch to share. The potatoes are somewhat shareable. service: Our waiter was nice. the overall service was really really slow and uncoordinated. We had like entrees come out and then all the sides showed up. So if you can as you put in your order just ask for things to come out in pairs entree + side unless you like eating just your protein. Id say service was 3.5/5 Ambiance: great for any group. They have good vibes flowing with chill music and mood lighting. It does have a reclining pergola. So if you get chilly bring a light jack or pashmina. Parking: Valet, street or garages nearby. Payment: apple pay and card are both options. not sure about cash

    An absolute gem! When you walk in, you'll need to go to the elevator and hit R for the rooftop. They have an outdoor area and an indoor area. We opted for indoor since it was cold but still beautiful since it is enclosed by glass. Everything we ordered was delicious. It is made to share so the server recommends 3-4 dishes for 2 people - the perfect amount. She was great. My absolute favorite was the chorizo and queso dip which came with a pita. So simple sounding but the texture was phenomenal. It's like they whipped air into the cheese and the chorizo and pistachios gave it a nice balance of texture. The salmon ceviche was also delicious - very flavorful, fresh, and a zing in the mouth. Second favorite. The seabass is third - cooked well and loved the crunchy quinoa but it was very salty. The empanada was my least favorite but I appreciated there was a lot of meat in the puff pastry. For dessert, Sticky toffee pudding was good but lacked toffee - needs more! I never really come to DTLA so I'm glad this is where we ended up. A favorite spot in the area for sure.

    Do they have a corkage fee?

    Yes they do. If I'm not mistaken I believe it's about $40.

    Is there parking?

    There is a small lot right next door or there is valet parking.

    How's the seafood? Looking for a place to eat with great seafood.

    What type of attire should you wear? Are jeans ok?

    Patrons are dressed in everything from sequins to jeans

    Did Pilot rebrand to Cabra? Looks like the same location.

    It is the same location, but Cabra is a new Peruvian concept from Stephanie Izard

    Are there vegan options?

    Minimal. Great vegan appetizers, but I wouldn't necessarily dine here if you are a vegan.

I ordered the quarter chicken with rice and salad, and I was really impressed with the portion sizes. Everything was flavorful, comforting, and gave me the kind of authentic Latin food vibes that I love. The sauce was definitely the highlight for me--it was so good that I found myself adding it to every bite. The prices are also fantastic. For the quality and quantity of food you get, this place is truly a gem. That said, there were a couple of downsides. The restaurant itself is very small, with limited seating available. The customer service also wasn't the best during my visit. Since the dining area was completely full when we arrived, we decided to place our order to go. While we were waiting for our food, a table opened up, so we asked if we could sit down and eat there instead. We were told that because we had ordered our food to go, we were not allowed to sit in the restaurant. I found that a bit disappointing, especially since we had already paid for the same food as everyone else dining in. Overall, the food was excellent and definitely the reason I would come back. If I'm in the area and craving their chicken, I'd absolutely return--just with different expectations regarding the seating situation and service.
