About Us
Our Story
Topside Terrace was created as a place to slow down above the energy of downtown San Diego. Perched atop Hotel Republic, our rooftop brings together fresh California flavors, handcrafted cocktails, and skyline views in a setting that works just as well for an after-work drink as it does for weekend brunch or a celebratory dinner.
Locals come in when they are looking for a new favorite spot. Visitors stop by for a true taste of San Diego from above the city. At its core, Topside Terrace is about good food, good company, and making the most of the city’s year-round sunshine.
Our Philosophy
We believe the best meals start with quality ingredients and are enjoyed at an unhurried pace. Our menus celebrate Southern California with seasonal produce, coastal influences, and bold flavors, alongside handcrafted cocktails, local beers, and thoughtfully selected wines.
Every dish is meant to complement the rooftop setting and encourage guests to settle in, order another round, and enjoy the moment.
Visit Us
Located on the rooftop at Hotel Republic in downtown San Diego, Topside Terrace is just minutes from the Gaslamp Quarter, Little Italy, Petco Park, and the waterfront.
Brunch, aperitivo hour, dinner, or evening cocktails, there is always a reason to come upstairs. We look forward to welcoming you.
