Rooftop Restaurants · Santa Monica
Santa Monica from the top — restaurants with the skyline, the breeze, and the menu to match
Santa Monica rooftop restaurants and bars — for the view as much as the food. Curated for sundowner timing, a proper dinner with the city below, and the dressed-up evening out.
Santa Monica rooftops peak at 6:30–8:30 PM — the sunset hour. Arrive 30 minutes before sunset for a sundowner; the kitchens stay open later for dinner. Friday and Saturday fill by 8 PM in season; reserve a table 2–3 days ahead.
Santa Monica rooftops close or partially close in monsoon (June–September) — call ahead. Winter rooftops sometimes deploy heaters and blankets; the experience holds up. Wind is the variable few visitors plan for — top-floor restaurants on tall buildings can be uncomfortable on gusty evenings.
Smart-casual is the floor at most Santa Monica rooftops — closed-toe shoes, collared shirts, no athletic wear. A few enforce a "no shorts" policy. Reservations are essential for prime view tables; mention "view table" specifically at booking — the inside-row tables are not the experience.
