Milo the beverage director made our night with the most delicious drinks — we also loved the mushroom tacos as a favorite dish of the night — we got lucky with the bar but it’s gets busy so reservations recommended — his brother Miguel also brought such light to the bar!

Not sure why this place doesn’t have higher rating; thought all things were excellent. Service, place, food, beverages; would love to come again. Had best drinks and lots of the menu. Came on a busy Friday night, with a reservation and changed it from 4 to 2 people, outside to inside with no problem, despite being sold-out and freezing outside. Staff were all wonderful, got drinks and food in little time. Really looking forward to returning.

On April 16th, 2023, after enjoying a lovely picnic in Golden Gate Park, my mom, Namratha Manthani, and I headed to Cavaña, the rooftop lounge at the LUMA Hotel in San Francisco (100 Channel St, 17th Floor). We ordered cocktails and small plates, soaking in the stylish Latin-inspired atmosphere and the breathtaking views of the Bay and city skyline. It felt like the perfect way to end the day—relaxing, vibrant, and memorable.

Chef Edwin was great to us last night... I have an allium allergy, which is very difficult for a Latin restaurant to accommodate. Not only did Chef find two dishes that he could prepare in a customized fashion, he personally brought out a delicious guacamole, as a gift. Five stars for Chef Edwin, for creating an excellent bespoke experience!

The pisco punch and feijoa drinks were delicious. Nice ambiance with a beautiful sunset view. I highly recommend making reservations in advance. Great spot to hang out with friends.

Amazing rooftop with great views all around. Heat lamps everywhere in the outdoor sections so it didn't feel cold even with the wind. Very beautiful space with friendly staff. Loved the cocktails and food too! Very high quality and delicious. Can't wait to go back more often. Update: Also a great place for brunch! Every dish we've had has been exceptional!

One of the best unexpected experiences of San Francisco. The Peruvian ceviche is do die for and the drinks are made with high quality liquor, and not diluted. People are complaining this place is expensive, but a $19 cocktail is expected at a rooftop with such views and in such proximity to two even venues. The quality of the food and drinks is quite surprising considering it’s a hotel rooftop. We went for drinks on a Sunday and stayed for dinner and a salsa dance with a live band. We are here on our second day for the happy hour and it’s equally nice.
