SD Foodie could not confirm what 'The Rooftop by STK' refers to today or its exact address. Roger's 2010 visit predates STK's typical rooftop-bar branding at hotels, so this Yelp listing may reflect a later rebrand of an originally differently-named Gaslamp/Downtown rooftop bar; current status could not be verified via available sources. Status marked unknown rather than guessed.

Roger’s tips on The Rooftop by STK
Grab a drink, chill by the fire pit and soak in the view of America's Finest City!
A low-key rooftop whiskey-cocktail bar above a Gaslamp hotel; Roger says the list is smaller than Whiskey House or Aero's but the Old Fashioned or Sazerac still hits, alongside tasty tater tots.
A family-owned Gaslamp taqueria Roger calls a great substitute for El Gordo, with more generous portions and carne asada, adobada, and birria all on point.
