dLeña by Chef Richard Sandoval

Bri and the general manager sere so attentive and kind. Compliments to the chef as the food was amazing. We were there for the bottomless food and drink and it was well worth the price. I have been to several michelin star restaurants and this experience was comparable. I am gluten free and there are multiple options available. They also keep a sharp eye on things to make sure you don’t accidentally eat your friend’s portion and get sick.

Had my 2 year anniversary here, absolutely amazing! I have a gluten and dairy allergy and they were nothing short of accommodating. The server was very informative about what I could have and what could be modified. Margaritas were DIVINE! Our server Ricardo was so sweet and kind, always checked on us and surprised us with a special treat for our celebration! Can’t wait to come back again!

Visited the “speakeasy,” Roja. The live music was fantastic, but it is a restaurant, not a speakeasy or bar. If you want to go for drinks only, you must stand at one of four standing tables or get lucky to get one of six bar seats. Chairs are for those eating, and our server required us to order from the upstairs menu (dLeña) rather than just the “bites” menu. If you read their website, like us, you wouldn’t be aware of this policy. We begrudgingly ordered dLeña’s gelato so that we could sit, which lowered our allotted seating time from 90 minutes to 60. The gelato was one of the only items we could eat given my partner’s gluten allergy; but when it arrived, the ice cream sat atop a pile of crushed cookies despite the “gluten free” label. Those with allergies should be careful about the misleading labeling here. We would have loved to stay, enjoy the music, and order more drinks, but our server presented us the check and asked us to leave (like the many other drinks-only guests who tried to sit at the table beside us but were also told to leave). The cocktails were good, but nothing special.
