   It is an amazing site but disappointed when you had to leave the table to observe the fireworks from another area. It could be great with better food quality and correct drinks (had to send some back when it was not what we asked for). Service was haphazard - our regular assigned server tried her best and we appreciated her efforts but others would come by to deliver food or drinks and communication was poor.

   Food was okay, a little on the pricier side. Drinks were good. Made a reservation to ensure we had a table and watch the Disneyland fireworks- would have been great but as soon as the firework show started, people that weren’t even eating nor had a reservation showed up (likely from the bar area on the other side) and crowded the entire viewpoint for anyone that was actually there with a reservation and had a table to see the show. 100% defeats the point of making a reservation with a $25 reservation hold fee. Needless to say- we closed out our tab and ended the night earlier than expected.

   We were hoping to have a pleasant evening with drinks and a dessert while taking in the view. Unfortunately it was such a disappointment, the cocktails were too sweet and diluted and the dessert ( chocolate mousse) was described on the menu with pine nut brittle etc the dessert we received was just chocolate mouse without the side items. We returned the dessert to the kitchen and we did not finish the drinks and we left. Won’t be going back there

   A little difficult to get up to. Have to go to the second floor of the hotel. Then get escorted to the garden. Then get taken up a private elevator. There’s a little side entrance/short cut if you park at the garden walk next door. If you come into the hotel garden next to huckleberry restaurant, you can come straight into the private elevator. The music and ambiance were awesome. Service was excellent. Mostly bar food. The buffalo sliders were too spicy and we had to swap them for Chile verde sopas. The bruschetta and meatballs were great. Chocolate mousse was perfect. The drinks were stiff and high quality. Plenty of heat lamps and fire pits for cold nights. Go for a date or special occasion! Great view over California adventure.

   I had a very special date planned for me and my wife not knowing there was a convention going on so they rooftop was slammin but we got really good sitting area right next to the windows. But some randoms came in and took over the other sectional without asking and no one said nothing to them i reserved it for us and had to put a card down so ee can have our own spot. Not that we mind but that was very inconvenient and we had to sit there with a family of 7 just sitting right infront of us. Then they got to order before us even though we been waiting for 30 min so i had to go up to the bar to order which is not a problem but yes another inconvenience. When food got there it was not the best and over priced i would suggest some security because once the fireworks started the family blocked my wife’s view and that was the big reason i got this place.

   I really wanted to like this place. It has potential. It’s a great location and has a beautiful view. That’s about it. First, we can only valet our cars. It was $20, with validation. So ridiculous. Next, I don’t mind spending over $20 a drink, but the drink should be made on the spot. I asked for a specialty cocktail, but I asked that instead of vodka, they add tequila. The server initially said no because the drink was premade in a batch! She then said it was possible so not sure what happened there. But if you’re charging almost $25 a drink, it should be made fresh! And now for the service. Our server was also the bartender. She was so busy she hardly paid any attention to us. Servers should not also be the bartender. She continued to apologize for the service. Even she knew we deserved better. It wasn’t even that busy. Not all tables were full. Lots of open tables. So really, I don’t understand why the service was so bad. We were there 2 hours and only had 1 drink each and an appetizer. I definitely do not recommend this establishment. Overpriced and bad service.

    Positive: service was professional and considerate. The view is awesome and Disney fireworks would be awesome if scheduled for the visit Negative: was expecting a full menu but only include overpriced appetizers. Parking validation did not cover exorbitant fee. There was not enough portable heaters and everyone was COLD including the employees - not a pleasant experience.

    The view was amazing. You can see Disneyland and Disney, California adventure from the rooftop. It does get a little windy, depending on the weather, so be sure to bring a jacket or a coat. However, if you are planning to make this a dinner, then I suggest that you look elsewhere because the food choices are very limited and honestly does not taste that great. It is very dull and not worth the price. TLDR great view but food choice is limited and doesn’t take that great.

    Booked an “experience” which was a Galentine’s Day event advertised to have a DJ, two drinks included as well as dessert. When we arrived the team had no idea this was happening as apparently the event was cancelled so they did not inform their staff nor those with a reservation. Food was overpriced but drinks were great. In all honesty if it had not been for Venus and her exceptional customer service I would be giving this place a lower rating. The staff was wonderful but their sales team really needs to do a better job with their advertising as this seemed to not have been the first instance.

    Over $450 for 10 drinks, 4 "appetizers" that turned out to be bite-sized. $40 for two cold meatballs alone. Overpriced apps, overpriced drinks. Terrible service. Over two hours to get food and drinks. No water provided. Not enough napkins or plates provided. Reservation was not during a peak time of the week, and nearly nobody else on the rooftop at the time. Ridiculous extra charges built into the bill in addition to gratuity. Patio furniture was dirty and wobbly. Not enough seating or table space for our group of 8. This whole experience felt like an awful social experiment or a prank.

    The restaurant was severely understaffed which lead to very slow service. 6 people, each getting 2 drinks and 6 platters of food that were barely enough to feed us came out to over $400. The view is great but I’m not sure we’ll return again.

    Overall experience was nice. Valet parked car - Directions to The Roof-Top Bar was a bit more than anticipated (enter hotel, then exit, then right, then re-enter then up. The bar has two separate sides. 1-is seating plus the actual bar & 2-simply seating and you have zero line of sight to the bar or TV or social mingling. However. However this Boring side DOES have the best view of The Disney Fireworks Display. The server was very nice and attentive. In addition, the security guard was pleasant to all customers. Security assisted with information to guests and snapping photos if requested. The food was slightly eccentric (looking at neighboring tables), we only ordered desserts and drinks. Both desserts were 10 of 10 ! Drinks: Bourbon Old Fashionsss, establishment had only basic whiskey choices. Nevertheless the bartender did a very nice job mixing the drink. Price was average (for OC), but I was not overly excited about the $20 valet fee when leaving. I tipped the valet largely because the fee was NOT his fault and he actually held a good conversation (and was a 19yr old student, working hard).

    I last went to Parkestry in September 2021 for a birthday. Since then, the food menu has changed a lot...and not for the better. The server mentioned they changed the menu in the last 6 months or so since they have their own kitchen on the rooftop now, opposed to bringing the food up from another kitchen in the hotel. My friend is vegetarian, so we were expecting some kind of bar food like pizza and fries, based on the pictures people posted on OpenTable. All she was able to eat was the bruschetta, which was basically two little circles of bread with very little toppings on it for $18. The buffalo chicken sliders were very dry. The bun was cold and it should have been heated up or toasted at least. Also, it was alarming that the slider had a little stick in it that said "RARE." Another review that mentioned the chicken sliders being undercooked (and their party got sick) is a VERY VALID concern. Even after spending $105 for nothing, all of my friends and I left hungry and ended up going to wing stop down the street. I sadly do NOT recommend this bar anymore based on the food alone. Service was nothing over the top either.

    Me and my cousins went to celebrate a couple of birthdays. And the view / drinks were amazing! The only thing I do have a complaint about is their plumbing situation. Where we were sitting at, it would smell like sewer every now and then. The women’s restroom only had one good working stall.

    Our service was very slow. They had one server on our side of rooftop. We never got to order food, only drinks and dessert. And that took long as well. Not, very impressed for the amount charged per item. Service needs to be upgraded! But, the views were nice, just very windy that night.

    Would probably not go back, they sat us at the worst possible location on the rooftop where it was a literal wind tunnel even though there were no other customers in the first hour or so (we would have much rather preferred a window seat on the bar side). Did not see a waiter for the first 10 minutes of being sat, we ended up moving ourselves to another table without their permission because it was extremely windy. The food was really delicious and the view was spectacular, but overall a very meh experience. The music they were playing was also extremely loud, so you could barely hear the person you were with and the heaters barely did anything to combat the cold because they were so high up and awkwardly positioned.

    The valet parking is expensive but it’s expected for this kind of place. But the waiter who was taking care of our table is wow! We came there after our dinner to enjoy the view since it’s our friend’s birthday but the waiter who came to take our order simply tossed the napkin onto the table as if he’s throwing our chips. Also not use to his tone of voice when taking our order. I expected better, nicer and more knowledgeable waiters working at such nice place. The waiter left me sour taste in our mouth so definitively will not be back.

    The place was nice, but they hardly had any food so we only ended up having 1 drink and a dessert. We went because we wanted to see the Disneyland fireworks but we could hardly see them so we were disappointed about that. Besides that the waiter was nice and we liked the music.
