A hotel-top perch just off the 405 delivering skyline views and a broad, shareable menu with Latin-Mediterranean touches. The draw is the outdoor wraparound seating and cocktails that make the room feel like a night out, not just dinner. Food hits best with grill-forward plates and bright sauces.

Grilled octopus, Seared scallops, Flourless chocolate cake
