Guys, if any of you follow me and you're looking for a great date-night spot, your lady would definitely appreciate this one! RISE is located on the rooftop of the Westin Anaheim, right across from Disneyland. They have live music Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, which makes the atmosphere even better. I forgot our bartender's name, but he was very attentive. I had a friend meet me, and as soon as she sat down, he already had a menu ready for her. I definitely appreciated that kind of service. Now let's talk happy hour--YES! The crispy fries were so good, the pizza was amazing, and the drinks were absolutely on point. They also offer valet parking. I believe the first hour is free, but it can get a little pricey if you stay for a couple of hours like we did. And one of the best little bonuses: if you're there at the right time, you can watch the Disneyland fireworks from the rooftop! Such a nice touch to an already great night. Definitely a spot I'd recommend for date night, drinks with the girls, or happy hour with a view. read more

Honestly, I was a bit disappointed from the start, but ended decently. The hosts upfront were friendly, but I would discourage phone usage at the front desk. It is not the best look. Heres where it went downhill. We waited 15 minutes without a table touch, greet, or water. We literally were about to leave until the server Evan finally arrived. He explained he was doing bottle service and did not see our table. Timing is def off. We got food and drinks literally at the same time even if we ordered drinks first. Truffle fries were good and tasty. The San Mariana Pizza was great! Burst of flavor! The cuban bites is hands down one of the worst dishes I tasted in my life. It was just mojo dressing everywhere. Views are good, but everyone runs to the front and blocks the view. Love the Westin hotel but this place is an aesthetic hype. Service from Evan underwhelming. read more

Came here to celebrate our friends' birthday. We brought a cake and asked if they could store it in the fridge and whether we could eat it there. The server told us we CANNOT cut our OWN cake and that there would be a $5 cutting fee. We were like, sure, since it's only a $5 "fee." But when the bill came out, it was a $5 fee PER SLICE, and we had 4 slices, so we had to pay $20. The server DID NOT EVER mention that it was PER SLICE. She just said there would be a fee, and she said it multiple times that there was a fee, not multiple fees. A normal person wouldn't think that it would be $5 per slice?? On top of that, we were trying to rush because of the two-hour time limit, and they took a good 20 minutes to cut our cake. OUR OWN CAKE that they didn't even have to make. While charging us $5 PER SLICE, they took like 5 minutes to cut each slice. So can we charge them a late fee or something? We were definitely gaslit into paying. She definitely knew what she was doing because when she left the bill on our table, she said again, "Here's your bill, and it includes a $5 fee." LIKE SHE SAID "A" $5 FEE. We also asked her at the end to confirm the fee, and she was like, "Yeah, this is normal for all restaurants to charge a fee per slice," and matter-of-factly said that this was cheaper than all the other restaurants. We would have been fine with this fee if we had known about it from the start, but this was just straight-up fraud. When our "lovely" server brought the cake over, she dipped her finger into one of the slices and almost dropped a slice on the floor. Our server also never refilled our water and visited us ONCE the entire time we were there. And the food was so mid. read more

Love a roof top experience. Great for date night and group date. Nice view of Disney fireworks. Service is great . Shareable delicious menu and has great selection of cocktail drinks . They also have entertainment . Rise only validates for 2 hours parking so be prepared to pay extra. But, overall it was worth it. read more

Located inside the Westin hotel. This place has a happy hour that runs from Mon-Thu 5:30 to 7:00 PM. It's outdoors-only, so definitely bring a jacket along since the patio can get chilly once the sun goes down. They have TVs set up right at the outdoor bar if you want to catch a game, and the patio offers a great, clear view looking out toward the Disneyland fireworks. read more

We were visiting OC and decided to stop at this place for a quick bite. Gorgeous space, amazing view of Disney land and wonderful service!

My mom and I came here again 7/3/26. We had reservations and were seated right away. The houses who brought us to our table was so kind and offered us blankets because it's cold. Sammie the busier was a lifesaver. He put our much needed heat lamp on right away. I ordered a strawberry virgin martini, but it came in a tall glass and was not good at all. Then our server disappeared so we had to give the manager my hot tea order. It's beautiful up there. However our server was a let down. He didn't come close to the amazing service from McKenzie who is still amazing in our eyes. read more

Went here with my girlfriend and, once again, had another lovely experience! We came here for our anniversary, and both Rose and Mckenzie were amazing. They were super attentive, kind, and patient with us. They even offered to exchange our drinks if we didn't like them, which we really appreciated. The food was amazin the poke nachos were THE BOMB! The drinks were really good too. They also set us up with great seats with an amazing view, so we were able to watch the fireworks during our anniversary dinner. Overall, we had such a great experience. Huge thank you to Rose and Mckenzie for making our anniversary dinner even more special! read more

Definitely must check out this place for a date night or girls night! read more

I absolutely love Rise rooftop. It can be difficult to find a cute place in OC where you can drink and simply lounge with friends, but ever since I found Rise it has been my favorite go-to. So many memories have been made here. The happy hour specials are great, and their menu changes at least a little bit everytime I go, so I'm always trying new stuff. Service is consistently top tier as well! Parking is validated for 2 hours by the host :P No notes! read more

We came in for a late lunch on a Saturday and it was not crowded. There are great views of the Disney parks from this rooftop. The background music sets a nice mood. It was kind of a windy day so we had to hold on to the menus and napkins because they were blowing around. I ordered a cocktail off the menu and it was refreshing and delicious. I also had the nachos, which were large and filling. The breakfast/brunch menu had great options and the bacon on the waffle was a highlight. A credit at the hotel doesn't work at Puesto which is why we came here to the rooftop for lunch. read more

This is a very cool restaurant on the roof of the Hyatt next to Disneyland. The view is amazing and it's a great place for drinks and to chat with friends. The food, on the other hand, is just ok. And the parking sucks -- it's $25 per hour! And they validate for only 2 hours. For whatever reason, the menu is pretty much appetizers only. The are 4 pizzas, I guess, if you consider that real food. But a number of us wanted to have a real meal. No can do. The pizza was good, but nothing amazing. Truffle French fries also good. The potatoes were quite good. The pork was just ok. Why can't they just offer a burger or a couple of pasta dishes? It's that so hard? read more

Finally tried this rooftop spot and wow -- everything hit. The view alone sets the vibe, but the service made it feel next-level. Staff was super attentive without hovering, always checking in at the perfect time. The food was honestly impressive -- fresh, flavorful, and plated beautifully. Every dish tasted like it was made with intention, not just thrown together for looks. And the drinks... perfectly balanced and actually strong (not watered down like most places with a view ). Between the music, lighting, breeze, and city scenery, the atmosphere made it easy to lose track of time. Definitely one of those places you go for dinner and end up staying all night. 10/10 -- great for date night, birthdays, or just treating yourself. read more

The queso fundido was supposed to have chorizo, I think we got about two clumps of chorizo. The first mojito was all syrup. After two sips we sent it back. The second one came and it was better, but we still had to pay for the first one even though the waitress told us the bar tender was new. We were excited about the fireworks and had a great seat but when the show started people stood in front of our table. They should make people sit down. We had reservations because we knew it would be packed and they seated us right away. The live music was great. This is our second time trying Rise and the food both times was not good. It's also expensive. So if you truly want to pay for a good view of Disney and have not so good food then this is the place. read more

Needing a new rooftop that's nearby and great views of Disneyland fireworks? This is your spot I actually like this rooftop more than the other surrounding rooftops. It just more spacious and has a certain vibe. Maybe it's the umbrellas and fireplaces. Great for large groups and in the summer time for an outting. Enjoyed the wings and fun drinks they had. They also validated parking just bring your ticket. Also the parking is super easy to find spacious. Love it here in the summer time read more

Something always changes when we visit Rise, some good some not so good! This is our 4th year of hosting a Christmas get together for friends and family, so we usually reach out about 2 months ahead to make a reservation. This last time I didn't hear back from anyone for a couple of weeks, I emailed two more times, and finally got a response and secured our date/time. I did request a table near the DJ, and we did get a great location. BUT, now when they have a private party, they rope off the lounge area near the DJ. They didn't do this before, so in the past, we were allowed (and others) to dance near the DJ and get close to see fireworks. There weren't any fireworks the night we went, so nothing lost there! Parking is validated for only 2 hours. We had our same server from last year, she's so great!! Always checked on us, made sure we had drinks, food, etc. The hostess girls at the check-in were also great, very nice and talkative. They didn't let us sit until we had half of our party there. The food - always excellent. We usually get the pizzas, sushi, charcuterie board, sashimi, fries, etc. Drinks - strong and tasty but the cost did go up. Our bill was a couple hundred more than usual, even with 2 of our party not drinking that night. DJ music was so fun, played a mix of decades and different type of music. We were seated at a high top table, and so the heaters were too close to our faces, when we tried to light them it was so bright and so we just did without them. Best rooftop bar among the surrounding hotels. read more

What is there not to like about this place? Rooftop restaurant on top of the Westin Hotel in Anaheim overlooking the city and of course Disneyland. Spacious and beautiful layout for bite size food and drinks to enjoy with friends n family. We ordered two different pizzas, truffle fries, pork bites, and two churros à la mode for dessert. Did I mention everyone had their choice of drink as well? Everything was delicious and the view was just fabulous! Great friendly customer service all around! Highly recommend. I believe 2 hours of parking can be validated for eating here. Will return again...would love to catch the fireworks one day while eating! read more

Rise rooftop is located in the Westin. Be sure to take your parking ticket as they validate up to two hours and then $20 per additional hour. Rise has dreamy views of Anaheim especially the Disneyland area. Prime spot to catch the Disney fireworks at night. I have been here twice for dinner and brunch and both were on point. However, my brunch experience today was top tier. My server Jacky was so kind and had great recommendations. My friend was running a bit behind but Jacky understood the vibes and had the cocktails flowing while I waited. The raspberry spritz $18 was absolutely refreshing and so tasty. I also did the mimosa cart where you can order individual mimosas or a bottle. I did the bottle of JCB for $48. Ulysses was serving from the cart and made great conversation. Once my friend arrived we ordered food. I got grandmas bacon waffle $26 and my girlfriend got the smoked steelhead hash $26. I loved the bacon and the eggs on the waffle but there was a strong citrus taste on the waffle I wasn't crazy about. Otherwise delicious. My friend's dish was large and she enjoyed hers as well. Overall, a great spot for brunch just keep in mind brunch hours are 10:30-2:30pm on the weekends. Cheers! read more

Rise Rooftop has amazing vibes every time I come here. Not only is the staff incredibly nice and make for a good experience, every dish I've had here is immaculate. I originally visited Rise because of their yearly New Year's Eve event, which I have been going to for the past three years. Since then I have had the opportunity to come for both their brunch and dinner. I tried a variety of dishes and drinks at dinner and they were all absolutely delicious! ALSO, views are great. You can see a lot of California Adventure and if you're there at the right hour you can see Disneyland's fireworks show. read more

Found this place by accident, it's a roof top open element bar. In the evening, there's a spectacular view almost 360. It can get cold but their heatimg lamps will keep you warm. Reservations are required but we manage to walk-in and got a nice table for 4. Staff were pleasant and accommodating. We had a 4-piece Tacos plate, Ahi Poke Nachos, chicken wings, Avocado and crab salad. A light dessert, Churros which was a perfect way to end the meal. To sum up everything, all items were terrific, flavorful, and fresh. It was a nice refreshing experience and I would surely return on my next visit. read more

Today's experience with rise rooftop was extremely disappointing. We made a reservation for 8 people and one of our staff decided to join us for drinks. We showed up early and the restaurant was pretty much empty. We made the reservation for 8 people and they only gave us a 6 people seating table. We asked if we can sit at the table that has 8 ppl seats. With the restaurant almost empty the servers are being extremely difficult and keep on saying they have to go to the back to ask. We have a reservation!! What is the point of making the reservation for 8 and you only give us seats for 6? But when we say if we can sit a person at the end of 8 ppl table they said no, but it's ok for us to sit 8 at 6 people table they gave us? What a double standard and horrible! While at the same time kept us waiting and standing there. This is a company event which we made it really clear during reservation. And we told them we can simply add a chair at the end of table and squeeze but the server kept saying no despite the fact the place was more than half empty and demanded that if we add that one person there is a minimum order of $70 per person!! Come on, one order of food per person is reasonable but $70 are you kidding? This is a rip off!! All my coworkers and staff were all standing while they kept on going back to talk to someone for an extremely long time. this is very unprofessional and unaccommodating to customers. There is no reason to being this difficult when the restaurant is not even half full and we have a reservation. read more

I forgot to add that the front hosts were awesome. There were a few more than some People that were rude and wanted to sit immediately and felt they should be given special treatment and the gals from 8:30-9:10pm did exceptionally well handling all of the inflow of patrons. The wait was not long at all. Had these folks been patient, they would have waited 15 min or less. Thank you for all you do. And sorry for peoples entitled attitude that you have to put up with , probably almost daily. read more

Want a SPECTACULAR view of Disneyland fireworks over California Adventure to accompany your special occasion weekend evening?! Hit up this rooftop!!! Vibe is LIT, thanks to the DJ! Throwback bangers & top hit music, even played firework theme songs (yes, Katy Perry!). He hyped us up with shoutouts to birthdays and brought the energy - crowds came up to dance and do the cha cha slide. Service, on the other hand, was the opposite. Server took our order, then vanished until kitchen last call. No water refills, no check-ins... took awhile to find him for the check...a bit MIA. Another downside is that although we sat with the California Adventure view... we were RIGHT in front of speakers. SO LOUD... half our party wore ear plugs and it was hard to have a conversation... but easy to dance! :) Silver lining? The food was surprisingly AMAZING. Usually people say rooftops are good view, bad food... except this place! Compliments to the ahi poke nachos and duck carnitas tacos with flavor dimensions! Loved the crispy chips to hold the ahi, seaweed, and sauce, and the nice bite into juicy taco. All paired well with my fun Tropical specialty cocktail mmmm and love those microgreens~ read more

What an absolute disaster. I feel like the magic stopped right when me and my partner ordered our meal. Not only was the food so mid but they only let you stay 2 hours minimum? Why? The reason why I say that you walk into an atmosphere where live music beautiful scenery and great view of Disneyland is present but can quickly turn sour by being told your time is up? lol I think the biggest fail is that when we left because we had to when the fire works started we went by the bar and saw our table which we were told to leave still empty during the fireworks? The food was absolutely not worth any of the money we spent. And I probably had a better chance and getting a decent meal if I went to del taco down the street. Absolutely trash. If you want the vibe the drinks are good and maybe a few finger foods like the ahi nachos. But remember Flemings is down stairs so if you want something better flavoured I would go there. read more

I made a reservation which I recommended because it was pretty busy for a Tuesday evening. We were greeted and sat on a great table with a view of Disney. It's located across the street from Disney's California Adventure at the Westin's rooftop. It's a beautiful lounge setup and a great spot for shareables and drinks. There are couches, tabletops, and bar seating. Our server Q was outstanding. He was very welcoming, patient and informative. I appreciated how he answered our menu questions and he had some great recommendations. I started with a Passion Fruit martini but I didn't expect it to be too sour/citrus for my liking. I then asked for the, New Age and I loved it. So smooth. Poke Nachos are a must. So fresh. I would not recommend the chicken wings. Tasted like boiled wings. Get the banana Foster Tres Leche Cake and Churros with ice cream. So good! A highlight was watching the fireworks from our seat. Most people got up to take photos and watch the show. Fireworks started at 9:35 pm. They have heat lamps which was nice to balance the temp. I highly recommend! We had a great experience at Rise. read more

I came here with some girlfriends on a Saturday night. The vibe and energy was just as expected. Elegant, sophisticated and fun. They sat us right away- we had a reservation in place. The drinks, the live dj and the dancing were all perfect. We ordered a couple of dishes but the only reason why I gave it a 4/5 was because the duck carnitas tacos were not all that great. Might be my palate but the tortilla was not warm, hard not flexible soft and the mix for some reason although it sounds good it wasn't to my linking. Regardless we had a great night and our service was great. read more

Rise Rooftop Lounge - Lounges Near Me - Anaheim, California

Rise Rooftop Lounge has a great vibe and nice view of Disneyland California Adventure. It seems to be more of a bar than a restaurant, with most of the food being sharable rather than individual plates. On a Saturday evening, they had a DJ who played great but loud music which made conversation challenging at times. There is a two-hour limit on table from the time your reservation begins, and they will come around and let you know that your time is almost up. Parking is validated for two hours and costs $5 for every 15 minutes after the two hours. Our server was great, and allowed me to order the Tropical Hideout cocktail as a mocktail which I really appreciated! The drink was fine but nothing special. My favorite dish was the truffle fries, which we ended up putting in a second order for! The pepperoni pizza was good and came out very hot, which is exactly how I like my pizza! The queso fundido was also enjoyable! Sadly, our table didn't love the chicken wings as they had a strong vinegar flavor, would not recommend. Overall, it was a good experience, but the food isn't anything special. read more

Sometimes this place is weird about reservations. I've come and they've demanded I have reservations in advance other times I've had a reservation but it was empty. Food here is great and waiters service is always on point. Drinks are ok. Sometimes they have special desserts. Not entirely Disney theme but definitely "inspired by" vibes Price point I feel isnt too crazy or elevated or unreasonable especially because the food taste great. I think the drinks might need an upgrade but after a few it doesn't even matter. The view is amazing. I highly recommend for a nice casual lunch with a cool vibe. read more
