The Gaslamp Quarter has elevated its culinary scene with the addition of Techo Beso, a rooftop restaurant and bar atop the AC Hotel by Marriott.

Techo Beso’s menu and decor draws inspiration from Tulum, Mexico, and its name translates to “rooftop kiss” in Spanish. Guests can expect to find amenities like lounge spaces, a rooftop pool, and party areas with a DJ platform.

Now, for the chef’s kiss. The menu features house-made guacamole, shrimp ceviche, brisket tacos, and churro donut bites. Plus, you’ll be able to sip on hand-crafted drinks like the “Maya Blue” — made with Del Maguey mezcal, house-made lime juice, and blood orange syrup — or the “Yucatan Margarita,” made with butterfly pea tea-infused Fords gin.

The new destination is open Wednesday to Sunday, hours vary by day.
