Piper

We stayed at the Mission Pacific Resort and breakfast was included with our FHR booking. Reservation was made through the desk at check in. Our 9am time a lot was easy to handle in a weeks day. The crowd was very light…weekends are much busier…a buffet is served on weekends. We were seated at a window table with a nice view of the outside street and terrace. The menu had lots of options that all sounded delicious. Beginning with a cappuccino that is the best I have had lately in my travels…thick, foamy and full of flavor. Selecting the Crab Eggs Benedict, my wife had the O’side breakfast. The food all came relatively quickly. The poached eggs on my Benedict were overcooked The rest of the breakfast was cooked just right and was filling and full of flavor.

We came here for breakfast and everything was excellent! Our server Angelica was very attentive and accommodating. Everything we ordered not only came out looking delicious but tasted fantastic too! I will absolutely come here again!!

Came here for a fast Dinner, they delivered. We had a retreat to attend, and had to eat fast and go. Our waiter was super understanding and got our food out. The goat cheese ravioli was to die for!! Excellent. Wish I had more time to explore more of the amazing foods they had. Definitely a place to visit!!

We visited Piper for Mother’s Day brunch, and everything felt thoughtfully done ,from the ocean-view setup to the fresh, beautifully presented food. Highlights: oysters, shrimp, and an omelette station that really delivered. My cocktail was carefully crafted and absolutely hit the spot. I’m already planning to come back for the prime rib and white asparagus,they looked amazing. Great setting, great food, and perfect for a special occasion.

This was by far the best meal I’ve had in a restaurant in the last two years! The food was absolutely exceptional – truly high-end in both taste and presentation. Our server was not only professional and knowledgeable but also one of the kindest people I’ve ever met in a dining experience. Every detail, from start to finish, made the evening unforgettable. I enjoyed every single moment of it and can’t wait to return!

This restaurant was a great last meal for our honeymoon trip, the service was fantastic and the food was delicious. We ordered the goat cheese raviolo and a chocolate cheesecake for dessert. The drinks are also really good, just expect higher price points due to location!

I’m really sad to write this review because I had high expectations. We booked a reservation for seven people for a little Baby Sprinkle for one of our friends this past Sunday. When we arrived at our 10:30am reservation, they seemed like they didn’t know about the reservation. At that point they had to get the table set up, which took about 15 minutes. I had intentionally made a reservation for inside and they sat us outside where unfortunately there were bees/flies and the ambience wasn’t what we had planned on. Online it states that breakfast is served daily from 7 AM to 11 AM and has a full menu. Unfortunately when we were sat we are informed that there is a much smaller menu on Saturday and Sunday because they offer brunch. We were not planning on getting brunch, so this was disappointing to find out. The server was nice, but once we ordered our food he never came back until we were done with all our food which lead to no one’s water being filled up until a much later time. Overall it was a nice place, and we went in with an expectation of having nicer service due to the pricing of things, and the overall quality of the restaurant, but unfortunately, we were sadly disappointed. Seems like there was a lack of communication in multiple areas of the business. I only write this review so that hopefully they can improve and better serve future groups of people.

I'm so sad, since this place has so much potential! It mainly missed the ball in 2 ways: 1) The staff are so friendly, but service overall is slow and food is not even close to being worth what they charged. 2) They're connected to 2 WORLD CLASS resorts that provide an extraordinary experience. For this place to fall below expectations in such an epic way was extremely disappointing. The excellence of the people skills of the staff brought this review from a 1 star to 2. The biggest issue? We bought a $100 20oz ribeye. Coming from Vegas, that's a justified price for a delicious steak. That's why we ordered it. What we got was a steak that tasted like it was cooked the day before and then microwaved before serving to us. Even after the remake. I would rather take a $14 steak from Costco that my wife cooks herself. Also what was mind blowing was how slooooooow the service was. I understand if food takes a while to come out, but a wine and cocktail took 30 minutes. We stayed at Mission Pacific Beach Resort (which was amazing) and Chase gave us food credit, so we decided to use the credit on Piper... big miss-steak. We will definitely be back to the resort, but will be avoiding Piper!

What a great place for brunch! The atmosphere was beautiful, and the service was top-notch. It's incredibly challenging to find a brunch buffet, and discovering a great one was a pleasant surprise. The resort is beautiful and We will go back.

Piper really surprised me in the best way. It's right on the water so the views are beautiful. It was understandably busy but we got lucky and found a parking spot right up front. They do offer valet if needed. Service was solid throughout the meal. I ordered the sea bass which came with a pistachio topping and it was absolutely delicious. They also brought out a complimentary rice cracker appetizer with an avocado filling to start. Overall a great experience and I would definitely come back.

Good spot for breakfast especially if you're staying in the hotel. Located in the lobby of The Seabird Ocean Resort and Spa. Buffet was the intial option but went with the Ala cart as i didn't have the stomach to indulge in the buffet, maybe next time! So I ordered the O'side over medium eggs, potatoes, bacon with toast. As simple and home-easy this can be they didn't screw with it. They did this basic breakfast solid by not adding any flair or surprises. Bacon was thick and crispy, my over medium the egg yolk was perfectly oozing out, the potatoes were actually my favorite thing as it was so crisp and crunchy yet the inside was fluffy as can be, toast was sourdough and again spot on. simple with brioche french toast which was in my opinion text book! It had this nice toast exterior with a slight crisp and the bread went from texture to nice custard texture. Needed syrup for sweetness but that's what I prefer and expect from my french toast. Well made! Love that there's no condiments on the table and they serve it! I honestly thought they were gonna grab the oside order from the buffet line which I am so glad they didn't! The service was amazing as our server was attentive and quick with everything! I'm definitely coming back!

Ate here twice. Once for breakfast and once for dinner and I don't have a glowing review for this place but everything is acceptable. I enjoyed their breakfast more than their dinner option but the service was pretty slow for breakfast and the food took a while. Also pretty pricey for what you're getting. Had some kind of steak for dinner which was kind of gristly for my taste. Wouldn't get it again.

Like other reviews, service was weirdly so slow yet there wasn't that many people there. Food did taste fresh and I highly recommend the pappardelle and sea bass! The raspberry cake was also so light and the gelee was a fun texture.

We had a daily breakfast credit and ate here all days of our stay. The inside of the restaurant is really comfortable and welcoming. Most of the dishes were solid; my son especially enjoyed the superfood (açaí) bowl. Poached eggs were overcooked the two times I ordered them. Without any credit the menu is expensive.

Piper is restaurant inside the Seabird hotel. Beautiful inside the restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. Came in for complimentary breakfast with coworker. She had steak and egg and I ordered the skillet two eggs skillet with sausage and potatoes. Coworker steaks was delicious! It came with a gravy dipping sauce but didn't need it. It steak was cooked perfect med rare and was tender. Egg was over medium and mini potatoes cook nicely. Now my breakfast nothing to boast about as it came out not as a scramble skillet. It came out two eggs medium, two sausage links and potatoes. Still good but was expecting a skillet. We also ordered two lattte. Overall yummy breakfast.

Piper was my first stop after I hit off the Amtrak from Anaheim to Oceanside. Off mission and a block from the beach..I sat on the patio facing the street and great place to watch.. I had the Piper breakfast sandwich with ham.egg..smashed potatoes on a brioche bun..yum..and a great cup of coffee.. sandwich was just want my body needs to get my day in Oceanside started. Service was fast...server was attentive and made sure food and everything was good..this attached to the seabird hotel .looks like a nice place.

Piper serves farm to table coastal California cuisine using the freshest ingredients. We started with a chickpea sphere filled with avocado mousse for our amuse-bouche. It tasted like an ode to chips and guacamole. We shared the pappardelle, lobster Nero pasta, 20oz ribeye and cedar planked branzino. The pastas were good but not better than most Italian restaurants in San Diego. The ribeye was tender and came with a delicate sauce that was not overpowering. The star of the show was the branzino perfectly cooked with a crispy skin paired with green tomatoes, it's a dish worth coming back for. Service was top notch. Food came out on the slower side. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner at Piper.

Came for brunch on Sunday and opted for a la carte instead of the brunch buffet since we couldn't justify the $52/person price tag. Piper's a la carte menu is really small (5 items in total), and you can tell by the pricing that they try to steer you towards the buffet (ex: $24 avocado toast is one of the 5 items). We got the 2 eggs plate, which came with some house potatoes and choice of meat, for which we selected sausage. The sausage was really dense, salty, and small. Service was friendly for the most part. Location is great with water views, so if you're interested in a vibe-y brunch, Piper could be a good choice.

Staying at the Seabird, we decided to enjoy breakfast at The Piper. The restaurant is beautiful and the staff is very welcoming and personable. I enjoyed their avocado toast with poached eggs which was presented beautifully. My daughter enjoy the brunch buffet. She says it's the best she has ever had! We will definitely return. Make sure to give it a try.

Food is amazing the wine bread, the cheese both dishes were fantastic. We had a little bit of everything and it was an unforgettable evening. Our waiter was very knowledgeable. It was his direction that created our beautiful evening. Ever so grateful after a horrible day he made our night Joseph Laied

5 stars for service. Had a very pleasant time with the staff here. Great teamwork and customer service. Food itself was decent. Nothing stood out as incredible or amazing. The squid ink pasta was interesting, had a mild spicy kick. Sea bass was a bit overcooked and tough but otherwise tasted fine. Focaccia with whole garlic cloves and butter was good, although I wish it was a little warmer or more toasted. Overall, a decent experience. May be worth a taste for guests staying at the hotel.

We came here during our stay at Mission Pacific because we had a credit- the breakfast was delicious- get some toast or a biscuit (yum!) purely so you can try the Guava Jam- ah-mazing. We got an omelette with grits and the O'Side plate. We also got the green juice and beet juice- serving size was small. The green juice was, well, quite green tasting and the beet juice was delicious! The service was so wonderful and friendly , plating was beautiful, silverware was so shiny it could have been a mirror. Pricing is a little steep, but that's to be expected at a hotel restaurant. The food and service stood up to the price though!

Gorgeous restaurant close to the water and inside the hotel. We ordered the burger and fries (you need to order separately) and had the place almost to ourselves on a foggy Monday lunch! Service was great and parking pretty easy on the street (thought weekends can be tricky).

I visited on a Thursday at noon for lunch. The lunch menu is very limited. There is one vegetarian option (hummus plate) and it seems more like an overpriced appetizer. The service was great and the interior is beautiful! The food was fine. Nothing extraordinary. There is an extra 6% surcharge added to every bill to cover the increase in minimum wage. I wish the restaurant would just raise their prices to cover their costs. It just seems sneaky of the restaurant to add an extra 6% surcharge with the final bill.

Came here on a saturday around 10 am and sat at the bar. Took awhile to get seated. The restaurant was beautifully decorated. We got the breakfast buffet and everything was good but not that memorable. The miso soup was a little strange. The brisket was cold when i got it not sure why. The breakfast buffet was like $52 per person. Which is pretty high for the quality of the food. Service was amazing tho!

We visited Piper for Mother's Day brunch, and everything felt thoughtfully done , from the ocean-view setup to the fresh, beautifully presented food. Highlights: oysters, shrimp, and an omelette station that really delivered. My cocktail was carefully crafted and absolutely hit the spot. I'm already planning to come back for the prime rib and white asparagus ,they looked amazing. Great setting, great food, and perfect for a special occasion.

Decided to try it here, my first time. Beautiful hotel. Ate at Piper... No vegetarian options but they made me a simple pasta with red sauce and ended up charging me around the same price as the other meat dishes, cost me $26!!! The few slices of bread to go with it was overpriced to. My friend had octopus and said it was good but her meal was close to $100 for an appetizer, entrée and glass of wine. My beer, pasta and bread was $60. The other restaurant on the other side of the hotel at least had a view of the ocean. Probably won't go again with so many other good options around the area.

Whenever I'm in Oceanside visiting friends, a stop at Piper is a must. My friends and I love the inviting atmosphere, stunning views, and exceptional food and drinks. We've been here a couple of times, and it was their unforgettable squid ink pasta that brought us back for more--the flavors were bold, rich, and absolutely delicious. The staff provided excellent service, offering thoughtful recommendations that made our visit even better. On our second visit, we were disappointed to find the squid ink pasta no longer on the menu, but the dishes we tried instead were equally impressive. We shared the clam linguine, Nonna's bolognese, and the braised short ribs family-style among four people. Each dish was fantastic--the short ribs were incredibly tender, falling apart with just a fork, and the clam linguine was a seafood lover's dream. Portions were generous, making it perfect for sharing, and every bite was a delight. Piper is definitely a spot I'd recommend to anyone visiting Oceanside. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu!

We went here out of convenience, and were happily surprised by the great service and good food. Definitely on the pricey side of things, but if you're looking for a nice quiet dinner it's a good spot.

Where do I begin? The interior of the place has a clean look while also achieving a timeless experience. The dimness of the lights creates a romantic ambience and it brings an interesting color scheme to the restaurant. I tried Piper for dinner and the following day for breakfast; my compliments go towards both times. Dinner: - The "Hidden Temple" cocktail which was deliciously crafted, I did not want it to end. -The "Piper's Burger," which was probably the juiciest burger I have ever had. -The "Chateaubriand," which could be perfectly shared between 2-3 people. -The "Parker Rolls." I know it is not advised to order carbs in the beginning, nor is bread the healthiest form of carbs, but these were a hit because they arrive so soft and warm! Breakfast: -Two Eggs any Style *Can't go wrong with the obligatory American breakfast because everywhere you have it, they tailor it uniquely to their own.

Had a weekend stay at the Seabird Resort and this restaurant is attached to it. It was our first time staying there and we had dinner and breakfast here. Dinner was so delicious!! The Parker rolls still linger in my head with that salty butter!! My short ribs were just the perfect serving with the mash and asparagus. I don't know what I was thinking but the chocolate cake sounded like a great way to end the evening. Though it absolutely was, prepare to share because it is a generous size and very rich! If you love chocolate, it's for you! We didn't have reservations (which we knew to do for both of our breakfasts after speaking with our amazing server) we were sat right away and everything went smoothly. There are two options for breakfast- a buffet or a la carte. We experienced both and once again, I can confidently say..amazing service and great meals. The buffet has everything from French toasts, pastries, fruit, egg omelettes, yogurts, oatmeal! You name it. You also cannot go wrong with the a la carte. Many good choices there too. I love the vibe here. Beach, casual but with a hint of an upscale feel. There are seating styles for all parties, large or small, and plenty of outdoor seating too. I would absolutely come back here again!

Half Buy Out - BEST experience My husband and I first tried Piper a couple of years ago because menu online looked good, and all the pictures of the ambiance looked really great, plus it's on the coast. The food was so good, and we were so impressed. It was extremely high quality for the prices. We visited a couple of more times and just loved it. So when it came time to plan a big birthday dinner, Piper was my first choice. We did a half restaurant buy-out. I worked with Monika and Allison for a few months to plan my party, and they were so accommodating. I was able to meet Monika on property and she was able to answer every question and went ABOVE AND BEYOND ALL expectations. I also worked with Alyssa a few times who was always very kind. Nate, the manager, was the best. We had met him at a previous visit, and he was so helpful, consistently asking my friends who were setting up the flowers what he could do, how he could help, and checked on us throughout the night. They accommodated all of our needs, gave the best service, the food was incredible as always and all of my friends (we had about 40) could not stop RAVING about the food and how nice everyone was. I'm telling you, their yellowfin tuna appetizer is SO good, people were drinking the sauce out of the bowls. I ordered the chicken, which I never order chicken from restaurants, but my goodness was it good. So juicy with a delicious sauce and big portion! I didn't get all the servers names, but Andreas was great, and Debonee, who wasn't our server this past weekend, but was the other times we visited, is so knowledgeable and kind. The host, who has been working every time we're there and wears a seersucker suit jacket, has also given us top notch service. Overall, simply incredible. Such a gorgeous space, Chef Chris knocks it out of the park every season with his menu. Even their coffees are fabulous, with an INSANE. espresso machine setup. We're locals and of course will go again and again. But if you're looking for an event dinner, Piper is fantastic!

This place was ok, but here are my problems with it: -Service was slow, and it was not busy. We ordered drinks and it was more than 10 minutes before we got them, which again, the place was empty at that time. This continued throughout the night. Overall we were there for 2 hours 20 minutes, which for a simple party of 4 felt too long for me. It wasn't because we were slow eaters, they were just inattentive at all points of the meal. -Nothing on the menu was calling to me. We ended up splitting the branzino for two, which was good, but I wish there was a carb (potato, rice, something!) with it. It was just fish and vegetables. Good for a low carb meal but it felt like it was missing something. -There was a 6% surcharge slipped onto the bill. I have been reading about restaurants doing this kind of stuff, and I find it unacceptable. Tell me up front and I think it would land a lot better, but I know these managers and owners know that most folks will not do the math and/or notice. This is BS! -We got a cookie to go. It was definitely a cookie out of one of those 20 packs you get at the Ralph's bakery. There is no way they made this cookie themselves. And it took forever (again), probably because they had to run out and buy a box from Ralph's. We will not be returning

ATTN: Wedding couples: (TLDR) This was by far the most stressful vendor we worked with with never returning calls or emails for weeks and unless you cc'd a superior. They tried to overcharge us by $1,000 for the wrong guest count list but didn't forget the updated raise in the bar tab (both were in the same email). They also gave us Tier 3 wine list ($175 a bottle) when we asked for Tier 1 ($75 a bottle). The buffet food was also horrible and the fish and pork were dry and did not match the quality of the restaurant in an individual experience at all. They also had no one at the door verifying our names and we had several people come in who were not guests as well as some who were even served drinks. EXPERIENCE: We started with a general inquiry. We spoke to three different employees who quoted us three different prices. Monika ended up taking the lead and was incredibly frustrating, unresponsive and unprofessional. We initially reached out in early 2025 for a rehearsal dinner on May 9, 2025. We had dined there and enjoyed the food. And there aren't really many other places with the location and ambience in the area. We began trying to book the restuarant. Weeks went by between responses. Contracts that were supposed to be sent were never sent and voicemails left unreturned. When an email response was finally returned and we noticed an error (and there were a lot of errors) communication stopped. The only way we could ever get a hold of Monika was if we cc:'d her boss. Prices changed every time we talked as did menus and seating charts and everything. Valet was at one point included then not included then included again. At one point we considered having 10 of our guests make reservations on OpenTable because five weeks before the wedding we still had no contract even though we were speaking for months. Finally after months (and only a few weeks before the wedding) we were told the restaurant was ours for the night. While we again waited for a contract we were surprised that we could still make reservations on the night of our buyout and when we called the restaurant the hostess said that night was available for reservations. We needed to call corporate and several other numbers. This apparently got back to Monika and she finally got us a contract. On the night of the event there was a host standing by the door but she did not ask anyone for our names to verify they were supposed to be there. People got in and ordered drinks who were strangers before I had to kick them out. The food was more than disappointing--dry fish and pork--and did not match the experience we had when dining earlier in the year. No better than an airport lounge. And completely overpriced for the quality. At the end of the night they tried to overcharge us. We had originally estimated 65 guests but sent and email stating only 55 were attending. I thankfully asked to see the receipt and that is when I noticed the 10 extra guests. They had no problem removing them right away but did take the incorrect recipe from me. We also said in the SAME EMAIL to increase the bar tab limit and that we wanted TIER 1 wine. The email was sent in time for changes according to the contract.The increased bar tab was remembered because a mere two hours into the event we had told we had reached our updated, higher amount. We were surprised and came to find out that we were serving TIER 3 wine all night. The difference was $175 per bottle instead of $75. The amount of stress was astonishing. Monika was the most unprofessional person we have ever encountered. The scheming and deceit and poor quality was unbelievable.

In few words: Great food, slow service. Waited for a table, then waited quite awhile for server to come around. Waited a LONG time for our food but it was worth the wait (seriously). Food would be 5 stars and service would be 2.5 stars. My mom and I shared several dishes: -Scallop crudo in buttermilk sauce- tangy and fresh. -Spring pea soup with creme fraiche- this was my favorite! Texturally so interesting which is unusual for a pea soup. Outstanding flavor -catch of the day: salmon filet in a green curry mussel sauce with eggplant. This was SO GOOD. Skin on salmon was crispy, salmon was moist and cooked perfectly, the green curry mussel sauce was silky smooth and full of flavor. The mussels melted in our mouths. Eggplant was not over cooked. This is a dish I will dream about.

We just had dinner here for the first time and Tanner was our server. He was so attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. He ensure we were taken cared of during our dinner and offer suggestions when we were looking for some.

The reviews for this restaurant don't do justice... the food in this place is on POINT! You can taste the quality ingredients with unique combination of flavors - everything we ordered was delicious. My husband, the kids, and myself cleaned every last drop of sauce on every plate. My only slight complain is that I wish it's a bigger portion- because we wanted more! We ordered - For apps- Yellowfin tuna with some pistachio sauce and octopus app. Then also the beet salad was very well flavored. For kids- they even devoured the fresh tomato marinara sauce ($10 - small portion) and the steak (for $22- we also wish there was more meat even for kids meal) For main- we shared the seabass. Would definitely come back to try the other dishes!

We dined at Piper this past Friday night (4/25) after checking into the Seabird resort that afternoon. While the food was good, the service left much to be desired. We were a party of 5, sat at 8pm, and our server was Peter. We ordered a few appetizers and the food was dropped at our table without share plates or utensils. The food runner said he'd go and grab them, but 10 minutes later he hadn't returned, and Peter hadn't checked on us. We had to flag the food runner down after another several minutes had passed to remind him that we still needed share plates and utensils before he finally brought them and we could begin our meal. When we ordered entrees we re-iterated that one of our guests was vegetarian (made known when we had placed appetizer orders), and asked if it was possible for one of the pasta dishes to be made vegetarian by having the meat element on the side (so I could eat it). He said yes and that it wouldn't be a problem. When the entrees arrived the sauce on the pasta looked like it might not be vegetarian, so before my friend took a bite we again asked Peter if the pasta was made vegetarian. He said yes, the meat was on the side. We asked what kind of sauce was on the pasta, and he said there was no meat in it, just the juices from cooking the meat. So clearly he doesn't understand the concept, which is alarming for any restaurant, but more so for a pricier one where you would expect the staff to be more knowledgeable about dietary preferences and allergies. We explained that she couldn't eat that and she ordered another vegetarian appetizer instead. He didn't acknowledge his mistake, didn't apologize, and didn't offer to comp the dish she could no longer eat. After our entrees we asked for a dessert menu, but after 15 or so minutes he still hadn't come to take our dessert order despite the restaurant having pretty much cleared out by this point. Needless to say we skipped dessert. I tried calling the resort today to discuss this event (and another bad experience at The Shore Room) with a beverage and hospitality manager. The person I spoke with initially was very kind and took my info down to pass on to Monica and assured me I would receive a call today, but Monica never called.

This place is located inside of the hotel, walking distance to the Pier. The color scheme and design is very beautiful and appeasing to the eye. Our waiter was very pleasant BUT slow service. There were only a few other tables so I don't understand why it was taking longer than usual to even get our drinks. The food was good, although i did not like the rigatoni pasta- it was way too spicy. The ingredients did state it had a chile in it but no other sign or warning regarding how spicy it would be. I suggest adding the level of spice next to it. When we got our check, both pastas were still on the check and my soup was listed as $14 when on the menu it was listed at $12. The manager had to get involved and initially was going to just discount the food off...excuse me? I only ate a few pieces and sent it back. It should have been taken off completely. Anyway she did end up taking it off the check but the fact I had to ask and emphasize we did not eat it is crazy. Unfortunately i will not be going back due to the check situation and the reason I'm giving this place 3 stars.

Updated to include some positives. This is my 10th time dining at piper. Came here for 2 dinners and then 2 breakfasts this trip. Recommend: Sea bass (light, moist and flavorful) Kids pasta (simple but delicious) Superfood açaí bowl Continental breakfast (good variety, kids loved the chocolate croissants, the orange juice is very fresh) Ok but not great: Kid's Chicken tenders (pretty standard) Focaccia starter (a little too greasy but good cheese dipping sauce) Rigatoni arrabiata (lacked spice) Oatmeal Chocolate chip cookie Blueberry and cranberry pie Do not recommend: Squid ink pasta- watery and lacked flavor Definitely recommend reservations. Service depends on how busy the restaurant is. We typically waited longer for service during breakfast. When we came early for dinner, service was excellent and the service was attentive to food sensitivities and went above and beyond to help accommodate.

Spent a beautiful day near by for mother's day and this place was the only one we can find a reservation. We got there at opening time and did not disappoint! The service was amazing! The food was delicious. We were definitely impressed! The ambience is super aesthetic. 10/10 recommend this place.

I came here for a friends birthday brunch on a Sunday. I called ahead of time and made a reservation for the birthday adding notes of food allergies and something special for a birthday. When we arrived, we were seated in a cute table near the glass windows which I appreciated. Its a great spot to people watch, and the ambiance is top notch. The birthday girl opted to get the all you can eat buffet, and due to food allergies on my end, had to have the chef make a omelette off menu. Little did I know, that asking for a veggie omelet that was specific not to have peppers would cost me more than the brunch buffet. It didn't come with toast, and avocado was like $10 extra. Are you kidding me? Lesson learned, although the omelet was good, it was not worth $45.00+ i mean I am not eating at the RITZ Carlton. I treated my gf for her birthday, luckily we got 10% off locals which was about $7.00 but I wont be coming back here anytime soon. If i do, i will be making sure exactly what I am getting and how much its going to cost me. $100 for a brunch for 2 for me without alcohol or mimosas to me, is excessive. She had fun, and enjoyed her meal. That's all the matters. But, there are other options that would be better in quality and budget friendly. tip: they add a 6% extra to the tab for employees wages, etc. I don't like that. I already paid for tip, over paid for my omelette and now its another extra fee? On top of tip? beware. I feel cheated.

Joseph was the best waiter, excellent service. I have a condo in Oceanside and love bringing friends and family here for brunch. Service is always wonderful, friendly, beautiful atmosphere and hotel. Joseph and the whole staff went above and beyond. Will definitely return and always have a wonderful experience here.

First off, I'm not a picky eater but it was just ok. Went for breakfast and the food was good, but not great. I had the crab cake Benedict with a spicy hollandaise sauce and smashed potatoes. It came with two cakes and there was maybe a tablespoon of sauce, barely tasted it at all. The smashed potatoes were not smashed. Sent the first plate back for smashed potatoes and came back the same, small whole potatoes barely done & no spices (supposed to have some onion confit on them). Ended up getting the cheesy grits, much better. Mom got the bananas foster French toast. First plate there was three tiny pieces of banana. Second time was much better, although the banana wasn't cooked in the sauce just sliced on top. Overall the food was good, and the service was excellent. Just better attention to detail by the chefs should be better. And will say it is a bit pricey. Oh, and there were no hand towels in the restroom. If I hadn't had a gift certificate, I probably wouldn't go there. Ambiance was very nice.

One of the highlights of staying at the Seabird. Breakfast at Piper was always on point. We always went early and never ran into issues with waiting for a table. Kid friendly with yummy food. They have a buffet of sorts on the weekends with lots of delicious options. My daughter stuck with the pancakes and side of fruit. Breakfast being mostly comped was also nice (being a guest of honor / globalist perks). I would still return even without it being comped.

Booked San Diego Restaurant Week Lunch through the event's official website, to celebrate my friend's first time visiting SD from Japan but we were told the special menu was not available Saturday. We had to leave bc the only option was brunch buffet. Bad impression. Big letdown. 2 stars for the hotel.

Excited to be back at the Seabird and dining at Piper. The restaurant has fun, modern decor and the food is always great. This evening, Ethan was our server and he was quite attentive, checking in at the right times and ensuring water glasses were full and dishware was promptly cleared. We ordered the kid's flatbread (think pizza), farmer greens salad, lobster and coconut soup, Piper's burger, and Sinaloa chicken. The flatbread came out so quickly after we ordered and was tasty; great for our hungry toddler. The farmer greens salad was simple but delicious. Well dressed without being overwhelming and a more than adequate portion. The lobster and coconut soup started off rough. It was initially a tad off, and I can't think of the last time I asked to send something back, but I did with this soup. Ethan shared to me that Chef tried the soup and said there might have been a smidge of extra lemongrass in the soup and though they had already sent out a farmer greens salad for me as replacement, they also (unprompted) made a new batch of soup and served that as well. We were impressed by the recovery and the soup was so much better, though very slightly salty for our taste. The Piper's burger was massive and delicious. Wifey particularly enjoyed the cheese crisp. I need to figure out how to make chicken like the Sinaloa chicken. It was perfectly flavored, juicy and tasty. I also enjoyed the mash but didn't quite understand the charred avocado, it seemed like a normal treatment of avocado. Looking forward to returning soon.

I am going to name Piper my favorite dining experience of 2023! The gorgeous Piper restaurant is located in The Seabird Resort. We visited in August of 2023 and I regret taking this long to remark on the outstanding experience. From the ambiance, to the excellent service, to each and every bite of perfect flavor, texture and balance, we were thoroughly impressed. I will let my photos speak for me on this one, other than to say that our server Hannah was so knowledgeable about the menu and welcoming, that we felt treated like family. How I wish this restaurant was in Claremont or Pasadena so I could go more often!

Piper was really nice! My friend and I had the Parker Rolls, which was absolutely yummy! The bread was super soft, and the honey comb + butter + sea salt combo made every bite feel like its own depending on the proportions you decide to pair with the roll. I had the braised short rib, which was super soft. The meat felt like it melted in my mouth. My only complaint was that I wish the portion sizes were bigger. After eating, it felt like I could still eat more. Everyone was super nice and EXTREMELY attentive to us. Our water was refilled constantly, and every time we had a question, everyone was able to answer with an in-depth explanation. (If you're a local, just remind your server to give you the locals discount) Overall, the place is great! Right next to the beach, and inside feels super well decorated yet homey as the bench's had pillows which made me feel like I was sitting on a couch. I definitely would come here again but for more special occasions rather than everyday type eating out.

I stayed at Mission Pacific Resort and breakfast was included for my Hyatt status. I ate 3 times for breakfast. I had buffet on . The service on Monday was just Ok. It was better on Tuesday. I felt the options for breakfast could be better. The buffet brunch blew me away. The breakfast did not. The first day, I got The everything bagel with salmon. I liked that they sprinkled the seasoning on top. It was good but it didn't come with a side so I ordered the oatmeal. The crumb on the oatmeal was buttery but that was it. The apples were good. The second day, I got the pork Benedict and Pancake. The pork Benedict was small to me. I really love eggs Benedict and this one was a disappointment. The malted pancakes were big and filling. This being my second day eating breakfast here, I had trouble ordering a the menu is the same and there weren't a lot of options

Worst place I've ever eaten in my life. Apparently if you come in with 9 or more people you have to pay for their shitty ass buffet for $53 plus tip and other absurd charges. When we called to make a reservation there was not a single mention of that and we searched the website after and we could not find that absurd rule. We literally felt scammed and it ruined my bachelorette breakfast experience. We ended up having to pay $72 each for shit ass food and water. The food is soggy and not flavorful. I wouldn't eat there if it was the last restaurant on earth. Also why is there an auto gratuity for a buffet?? I've been a server and she made over $140 off just pouring us water...INSANE.

We came for weekend brunch and it was ok. The place was very cute and the food was not bad but also not amazing. They have an omelet bar and some basic breakfast offerings like waffles, pancakes, potatoes and French toast. The buffet was $42 per person. The hotel and lobby are breathtaking but I think this place is more for tourists and out of towners than locals.

We had a beautiful dinner at the Piper restaurant. We were able to get here a few minutes early to see the gorgeous Oceanside sunset.... This restaurant is literally a block away from the original top gun house, which is now a pie shop . The food is very fresh. We had their grilled octopus, very flavorful. . We also enjoyed the grilled salmon with a tomato caper Ragu soup... (I'm pretty sure that's not how it was advertised but that's how it ate and it was delicious) We finished that off with their incredibly creamy, delicious fresh carrot cake. This is definitely a beautiful restaurant to go to for a date night family night or a girls brunch . They've got great signature cocktails and nice wine list. The staff are incredibly friendly. There is valet parking at the hotel, but there's also parking down the street . We highly recommend you go and enjoy yourself at Piper.

It's just breakfast folks. This is a convenient place to eat if you are staying at one of the hotels and do not know how to walk a few short blocks for better tasting breakfast. Price to value ain't cutting it here. If you are a local pass..... It's breakfast folks . I give em credit to try make the breakfast ambiance feel like it's for royals and not peasants. My burnt (I mean smoked) bacon and flavorless french toast made me miss Americas dive ....Denny's . It's just breakfast folks.....

Stayed at the Seabird for a staycation and popped in Piper to see if we should dine. 7:45 and place is pretty open which threw us off but they block off a lot of resos for hotel guests/room service etc. Had the pleasure to meet Atzhiri and after chatting with her we decided to stay and eat a full meal. She was so welcoming, knowledgable of the menu/Chef and ingredients. We started with focaccia & beet salad, both so great and beet portion was amazing. Also added the crudo which had a great flavor sauce and ended with the short rib agnolotti which blew us away! We will be back because we Live in Oceanside and now have a favorite dinner spot and server to visit!

Service was good and the bartender friendly and she made a great martini. Food was disappointing the Octopus presentation was sloppy and bland the rigatoni pasta was over cooked and the tomato sauce was just ok. I reluctantly sent it back as I tried to enjoy it but just couldn't settle so I asked for the rigatoni to be al dente but second time around was suspicious as it was too quick to come out and unfortunately just as disappointing. Felt like the rigatoni was pre cooked I don't recommend the rigatoni alla rabbuiata or the Octopus.
