If you’re looking for a lively rooftop spot in downtown with great food and stellar service, Cabra is the place to go! Our server Dylan was warm and attentive, and the rest of the staff were incredibly kind and efficient even though it was pretty busy. 10/10.

I will come back again and again and again for that branzino. It’s next level, like death row meal status. The drinks are good, but definitely heavy on the mezcal (and pre-made so no substituting). The service was great - we sat at the ceviche bar, so it was really fun to watch the chefs do their thing. The yellowtail and toro sashimis were so fresh and light, and the Magdalena had perfectly balanced flavors. Vibes were immaculate too. Can’t wait to go back!
