Native Son OC

I recently had the incredible opportunity to climb Mount Kilimanjaro and go on safari with Native Son Expeditions, and I can confidently say it was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. From the very beginning, the team was professional, organized, and incredibly supportive. The Kilimanjaro climb was perfectly managed — the guides were knowledgeable, experienced, and always attentive to our safety and well-being. They constantly checked on our health, encouraged us during the toughest moments, and celebrated every milestone with us. The porters and cook were equally amazing; their hard work, positive energy, and delicious meals on the mountain made all the difference. Reaching the summit was emotional and rewarding, and it wouldn’t have been possible without such a dedicated crew behind us. After the climb, the safari was the perfect way to unwind and continue the adventure. The guides had sharp eyes and impressive knowledge about wildlife and the ecosystems. We saw an incredible variety of animals and learned so much about Tanzania’s natural beauty and culture. Every day was well planned, the accommodations were comfortable, and the entire experience felt seam

Simply an incredible place. The music they play is great, and the beer truly impressed us — we really appreciate a good beer. The cheese fries and the chicken were absolutely delicious! We’re from Florida, and we can definitely say we’ll be coming back!

It's an adequate place for a quick bite and a drink but nothing more. The wine is stale and food offerings are limited and not delicious. Service was fine though far too familiar with each other, not professional and doing the minimum. You need to take stairs to reach it. They do have an outside rooftop hangout with fire.

Don’t freely give 5star great reviews - but my family and I love this rooftop bar and restaurant. They have delicious craft cocktails, 20+ craft beer rotating handles and they brew their own beer, brewery is in DTLA! Try their Mexican lager El dojo or IPA circle boy! They have monthly food specials with pasta, burgers, chicken sandwiches, cheese plates, crab cakes, BLT’s, grilled cheese, and burritos with “pig sauce”! Their kitchen is full of creative items. Their Saturday and Sunday brunch is fire and open around 10am. Attentive staff, friendly and knowledgeable. Bottomless mimosas and brunch cocktails. Friendly chill vibes during the week and lively community on Friday and Saturday evenings. They also have fun events and all you can eat BBQs during the holidays: Labor Day, 4th of July and Memorial Day. Safe, family friendly, and enjoyable. Live music and DJ’s on weekends. Don’t walk, run! Love this bar.

Native Son in DTSA is a great, central rooftop location. There is a great selection of craft brews on tap. The rooftop space is predominately outdoors. It can be nearly standing room only Friday and Saturday nights. They serve a couple of awesome big burgers here. I highly recommend the "Santa Ana Burger". There are a range of vibes at Native Son, depending on the day, time, event, DJ, or band. I most enjoy a beer and burger with a view during off-peak times -- afternoons (especially for sunsets with a full moonrise).
