Portside Pier

It was a perfect day to just go for a walk in San Diego. There was many cruises ship at Port. It was a busy. We stop here to eat lunch and the food was fantastic and our service was so spot on soon our drink was halfway, they were there refilling. Didn't take a picture of the food, but I'll tell you this. It was amazing. You have to come here. On a beautiful day or even rainy, be beautiful to look out into the ocean. But this place is well worth it. Cause, come on, even on the outside. They have a coffee shop that you can have and put on your Instagram and everything else, which is amazing. Then you get to see your name written on there. What are your comments that you supply about the coffee? So, it's well worth to come here to eat the fabulous food. Get a coffee and go walking out there or hot Cocoa. On a cool day.

We sat at the bar big mistake too busy making the drinks to wait on us. The 7 Marie soup the shrimp was over cooked like rubber. Chips and salsa Great.

Great place to hang out with friends, grab as drink and enjoy a meal. We just went for drinks to TopSail and really like there vibe. We will definitely come back for food. We had dinner at Brigantine that was just ok, but that's another review.

What a great place for lunch and dinner. You can catch a beautiful sunset looking over the harbor. The Brigantine restaurant and Miguel's are great restaurants.

A nice place for a first date. Specially by the water. I got a crab cake and it was really good. But I don't recommend the shrimp fondue. The cheese is way too thick and dry. Not all gooey and melted. The wagyu burger was juicy and tasted really fresh.

Love it great dining options, and sunset views. Right on the water. Great views of the boats.

Today, after a long flight, we decided to stop here and eat lunch. I have a Medical alert service dog and I asked our waitress if she could bring her a bowl of water. She said she could not do that due to the restaurant policy. I asked her if she just give me a plastic bowl/to-go container and I can just pour my water into it for her. She said no rudely and said again it was in the policy. This is the first time in 5 years of having my well trained service dog that a restaurant has ever declined to give me a plastic bowl for her water. Unbelievable. We paid $115 for two people for lunch and this is how they treat their customers? Do better!! I will never come to this restaurant again.

Highly recommend Brigantine!! Skip Miguel's you can find better Mexican food. Brigantine was delicious a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. If you like oysters, it's a must. Fresh and delicious! We all liked our food. Will definitely come back when we come back to San Diego!!

I sat down at the bar for an early dinner and was blown away with the service I was provided. Gabe and Michael were my primary bartenders, but I want to lump in the other two gentlemen since I was also checked in and assisted by them. Right away I was informed HH was almost over and given the menu. At last call they helped me out with getting my second drink order in by reminding me of the time and ringing in the order before it was too late. I was dehydrated and they kept my water topped off every time it got close to being empty. I came in knowing I was going to have a good meal, but I have never been so blown away by the overall service like I was this visit. These guys had their hands full with a busy bar and they were on top of their game. Thank you guys.

In short: Fresh seafood, great views, and a solid spot to soak up San Diego. Long version: We'd just landed in California and, while wandering around to get a taste of San Diego, my friend and I stumbled upon Brigantine. He's obsessed with oysters, and their sign promised plenty. We grabbed a table outside, right on the water -- perfect for watching jet skis zip by and boats sail along. For an Ohio girl like me, it was such a treat! Not being big on seafood myself, I ordered a Caesar salad -- and it was one of the few places that actually puts enough dressing on it. Honestly, one of the better salads I've had in a while. My friend got half a dozen oysters and the calamari. He said both were delicious, and the oysters tasted super fresh. The service was great, and even though we were the youngest people there at the time, we felt totally comfortable. If you're into seafood, give Brigantine a try -- every dish that came out of the kitchen looked amazing!

Very nice ambiance and service. We ordered the fresh oysters, grilled swordfish, and panko crusted Mahi. The oysters were so good and fresh, the swordfish tasted flavorful but the mahi wasn't as good. I'd still would come back someday for drinks, appetizers, or small plates. I would like to commend our server as she was very attentive and often checked on us.

Beautiful view, popular tourist spot, and pretty good food! We had Brigantine to try to get the sunset during dinner and were successful. It's a hot spot to go, every table is full and there is some wait for drinks and food, but it's worth it. The food is good, there's several GF options, and it's all quite shareable. We did wait a while for drinks, particularly as the night went on, but our server and the management we saw were definitely trying their best. We all liked our main courses, but the sides were fairly bland. Brussels sprouts weren't what other reviews said they'd be, but the crab dip was definitely worth it. I'd go again for the view! And the swordfish!

Several people recommended this spot at a work conference (for the fish tacos which are only on the lunch menu). Came for dinner and can best summarize the meal as unremarkable and lackluster. The strawberry lemonade was not strong in strawberry OR lemon flavor - I suspect it was mostly soda water. Would not order again. The crab and shrimp fondue appetizer was not melty (like normal fondue) but rather a thick texture that was rich but had minimal shrimp or crab flavor nor were there visible pieces of either. I'd skip this. The bacon-wrapped crab stuffed shrimp sounded amazing and was yummy. It was flavorful and creamy. However, it was served with completely plain, unappetizing green beans and carrots. I asked for salt and pepper, but that did not save it not to mention they would have benefitted from being cooked longer as the carrots were too firm. The side of mashed potatoes was also very bland and the jalapeno white cream sauce didn't help. I feel the reviews may be overhyped as I would not recommend or return to this restaurant. The service was perfectly fine and the outdoor views were outstanding. So, maybe visit for scenic drinks, not food.

This restaurant serves solid seafood. I had the fresh oysters and baked oysters, lobster tempura tacos, mud pie and a passion fruit margarita. Overall, I was very satisfied with my meal. The fresh oysters were plumb and creamy. The lobster tacos were meaty with a nice crunchy coating. The mud pie was huge, sweet and delicious. I did not enjoy the baked oysters. They were small and could have been more flavorful. The margarita was not balanced and was a bit on the tart side. Service was excellent. We had reservations on an early Saturday evening on the patio next to the water. It was very busy, but our waitress was sweet and friendly and food arrived on time. The ocean view was beautiful.

Super cute, bustling restaurant right on the water. Ona hot day we opted for indoor seating. Overall the service and food was great. The one kinda weird and not very hospitable thing: when the host walked us to our table he looked surprised and like he wasn't sure what to do. Turns out 2 employees were having a meeting at the table we were assigned to. I pointed to another table and said we would be happy to take that one instead. The guys were attempting to be nice and got up right away, but the table was not only NOT set, IT WASN'T SANITIZED or at least wiped clean. Instead, when one of the men returned to bring more cutlery, he WIPED THE water rings (from his water) on TABLE WITH HIS HAND!!! The food: Oysters were just as they should be, FRESH! The calamari was in strips, meaty and good seasoning on the batter. Lobster tacos -5/5, super tasty, came with green beans which was a nice veggie option. Cobb salad -4/5 super fresh, but nothing special Fish and chips - 5/5 perfect batter ratio, fries were fresh Ahi tuna special - 5/5, tasty, fresh and good portion Our server was nice and attentive.

Food was good, the lobster tacos were amazing! Fish and Chips were good as well. The view was beautiful. Definitely will try this again

This review is strictly for a private book event for my bestie graduation dinner, so the menu we head was prefixed since this was a private. Located on the San Diego Pier, this was my first time experiencing this restaurant and my goodness, parking here on the weekend was stressful. I had to parked at the other side called Block 4 parking, keep in mind there was also a festival going on so street parking was blocked off. I didn't know they offered valet parking until after the party event was over, but hey, after all the food, I was glad to walk back to my car because I was stuffed. Services and food. Now since this was a private event, there was a prefixed menu on which I had what I wanted since invitation was sent out, I always study the menu before I head to any restaurant so I got the Brig Chowder for starter and for the main course I had the Sterling New York Steak (Done medium rare) and ohhhh mmmyyyy lorrrddd, loved that crusted layer on that steak and the mashed potatoes was great, now the green beans was a bit too hard, like it needed to be boiled just a tad bit more and then blanched; overall it was good, big portions and filling. Went the desserts came, I was really stuffed from the lunch and can't passed up the dessert, it was good, wasn't too sweet and if I wasn't driving, an espresso martini would paired great with the s'mores brownie in my opinion. The waiters that assists during this evening were wonderful and attentive, filling waters and making sure each guests got their cocktails, I didn't ordered any cocktails since I was driving from a far, so I got pepsi and they refilled everytime it was low. They also served bread but I didn't want to get fill on that, the party did however, order appetizers from their other menu that wasn't listed in the prefixed, I got a tasted of their grilled octopus and that was really good, don't know the name of it on their menu but most likely to come back and try out. Since this was a private event the ambiance was intimate and shut away from the main dining, honestly I felt like this was Keeping up with the Kardashians kind of vibe because of how private it was.

Only go to this place for the vibes and views the food was tasteless and very uninspired

My son and I popped in after touring the maritime ships. He demanded ice cream as a treat for doing the exact thing he asked to do today. (Toddler parents will understand) So we stopped next door to grab some ice cream and a glass of wine. At the front, the hostess and Asian manager with the beard suggested if we wanted ice cream to go next door. Maybe they were confused people wanted to sit down at a restaurant and order more than one item? Diana, our waitress, was very kind and accommodating. The people at the front were not accommodating at all and left a poor impression of an empty restaurant on the 4th of July. I've said it before about places open on the 4th- get your A string in to serve people like Diana, not the D string, like the manager and unfriendly hostess.

I really enjoyed this place! Jessica was awesome, very friendly and helpful! We got in and sat at a community table outside. It's got a fire element in the middle of the table, so was great late at night to watch the sunset. It kept us warm and kept our dishes warm. It allowed for a casual conversation without having to rush to eat while the food was hot. The Brussels sprouts were the highlight of the meal. Easily the best Brussels we've ever had!!! We removed the pork as we have a sensitivity to pork. The sauce on them was awesome! Also had an old fashioned, no the specialty cocktail but a rye old fashioned with a different bourbon. Excellently done! Very well balanced. I had the mahi and it was a very tasty dish. Good portion and the risotto was excellent! Would recommend anyone stop in, I'd come back, and would recommend visiting at sunset!

My party and I attended the International Boat Festival by the harbor and made a reservation at this restaurant for 5 PM. We arrived early to see if they could accommodate us, and they were very accommodating, seating us by the water after I requested one of the few open seats available in that area. Fortunately, it wasn't too crowded when we arrived, but it quickly became bustling with tourists. The food was delightful! I ordered the fondue, while my party ordered both raw and baked oysters. The raw oysters were particularly tasty, fresh, and in season! The fondue was delicious, and I also ordered an ahi dish that had a nice kick, showcasing an Asian fusion flair. Overall, we had a wonderful time at this fine restaurant, making it a fantastic outing for foodies.

Walking in already feels like you're in a fancy restaurant. The servers are nice & ready to get you seated. The drinks were great & didn't take long for them to come out. The swordfish was absolutely the best seafood I've ever had, was also my first time, so I recommend if you ever visit. The veggies & the risotto paired extremely well with the swordfish & I wish I had more. The dessert was probably the best I've ever had as well & I almost never get dessert at any restaurant. The view was immaculate & the walk along the port was beautiful. 10/10, thank you

So I had other plans for dinner, but they were derailed. I decided on this spot because it was on the water and I was confident it would have an impressive menu. We were seated pretty quickly, but moved as the draft from the patio door was a bit much. My stepmom grabbed a cup of tea and I was kinda impressed with the whole set up that gets delivered with it. For appetizers we started with the calamari strips and I had the grilled oysters. The oysters were a bit bland and I kinda expected more. The calamari was an atypical cut, but I made for a more unique culinary experience. For mains my sister got the lobster tacos that were a bit interesting with the purple tortilla. My dad has the salad, and my stepmom has the burger which she said was a bit dry. I had the mani and it was flavorful and the risotto was okay. I might have preferred mash potatoes. The veggies were crisp and it was pretty good. Nice spot, very impressive bar. Check it out if you are in the area.

Had dinner at Brigantine on the Port and overall it was a really nice experience. We didn't sit right by the water, but we still had a good view of the marina and the boats, which added to the relaxed coastal vibe of the place. We started with the clam chowder, which was creamy and well-seasoned. It had a good amount of clams and wasn't overly thick, which I liked. Definitely a comforting way to start the meal. For mains, I had the fish tacos and they were really solid. The fish was crispy and fresh, and the toppings gave it a good balance of crunch and flavor. The portion was generous too. We also ordered the scallops, which were cooked nicely and had a good sear. They were tender and paired well with the sides, though I wouldn't say they were anything out of this world. Service was friendly and the pace of the meal felt unhurried. It was busy but not chaotic, and the staff seemed on top of things. The food didn't completely blow me away, but it was fresh, satisfying, and enjoyable. What really stood out was the setting and overall atmosphere. I'd definitely come back, especially for a chill dinner with friends or a casual date night by the marina.

Today my wife and I took our 4 grandkids (18, 16, 14, 12) to the Brig. The "kids" have their favorite menu items, and so does my wife (fish taco) and I (lobster tacos.) Johnny was a terrific server and service was perfect. All the dishes were exemplary. We usually frequent their Del Mar location but today we took the kids to tour the USS Midway. The bayside ambiance at this location is wonderful! (The only questionable item was $10 for a teacup of tomato soup!)

6ct. Oyster for 20$-5/5 Fish tacos-5/5 Overall very good and fast service! This place is very casual but is a little more expensive, due to the location. The only note I would give is that they don't have actual saltine for the oysters.

Best seafood and view right on the harbor of SD bay. Staff was wonderful, food is delicious, views are 5 star. The have a heated patio and valet and paid parking up front. A gem to local and tourists to eat at! Worth every taste and penny.

My wife ordered the shrimp and crab Louie salad! Also a cup of Clam Chowder! I ordered the grilled octopus to start! Then the sandabs for dinner! Our server was nice and friendly! Real hungry

WOW! I was in San Diego for a work conference and needed to find a nice place to take out one of my clients - I am so glad I chose Brigantine - Portside Pier. THE MOOD: The conference itself was a hectic few days, but I honestly felt like I transported to another place as soon as I entered Brigantine. The large windows and beautiful patio space and view made it feel like I was on vacation. The weather was nice, we had a great view of the water, and the patio was covered so that as we ate, we felt a nice breeze every so often. This location and view I feel really captures the heart of San Diego. THE FOOD: We ordered the following: -Sea Bass with risotto and asparagus (the sea bass was melt in your mouth and the risotto had a great consistency and was creamy) -Oysters (we got 2 dozen oysters and they all tasted nice and fresh) -Crab and Shrimp Fondue (this came with crunchy garlic toast). The crab and shrimp fondue was rich, creamy, and tasty and paired really well with the nicely with the crunchy garlic toast. THE 'TUDE: Our waiter was the best. He was so kind and really took care in making sure my business lunch went smoothly. He was attentive and also informative of the menu. OVERALL: From the San Diego vibes, good food, and great service, I will definitely be back to enjoy!

My company hosted a dinner and we got to eat everything off the menu. Pricing wise, you definitely pay a premium being next to the water front, but the quality is there. I absolutely enjoyed the lobster tail and oyster seafood plate, my pasta with grilled shrimp and their ties miso cake was massive. Service was great, loved the ambiance, and plenty of paid parking available right in front of the restaurant. I also come here often just to grab a cup of coffee and sit next to the water to relax. It's one of my favorite places to visit in San Diego.

Amazing meal!! Erica was attentive & very forthcoming with her suggestions. We shared the Oyster Rock as appetizer between 3 of us. Then my husband & I shared the chef special of the day Seabass. Our grandson enjoyed the Marinated Swordfish on lunch menu. We saved room for the yummiest desert, Mud Pie! All our choices were top notch!!

Always great service here! Tyler went above and beyond to make our three birthdays special. Calamari and Octopus appetizers were tasty on the palate. The Macadamia Cristed Mahi-mahi with risotto, steamed beans and carrots was delicious! Washed it down with a light lager. The Mud Pie and Crème Brûlée were delectable.

my friends and I came here for dinner last night! It was nothing but amazing! Our car broke down and we were gonna miss our reservation but they easily accommodated:) our server was so nice! He even sang happy birthday with us! #dylan #slay. The table was great and we had a lovely view of the star of India ship! Of course the food was delicious! I left with a full belly and a happy face:) I would definitely return!!

We went during the week for Happy Hour and 1/2 price appetizers!!!! Our food was SO good. I tried artichoke fritters, which I've never had before, and the sauce that came with them was really good. My husband got the potato nachos and we both ate very well!!! It was really nice to eat near the water and watch the bay.

Service - great, very nice people Ambiance - perfect. View and everything. Food - everything was delicious Great place to order some food and enjoy the waters

I have grown up going to the Brigantine and I love going to this location because of the views but this location is always lacking being a 5 star location to me compared to others. In a recent visit I sat at the bar on a taco Tuesday and I was surprised that it wasn't all that busy. I was there for awhile but still continued to order drinks or apps as well as enjoyed a taco. There were a lot of people working the bar and every time I wanted to order something I had to wave down someone to take my order and then they made it seem like I was a burden asking to order or asking for simple things. Definitely doesn't make the visit very welcoming. I know working in the service industry can be stressful but the attitude and being ignored because I had been there for awhile is just a bit disappointing.

We started with the lump crab cake, which was packed with meat and perfectly seasoned. The clam chowder was so yum, and the risotto was cooked to perfection. Even the burger was great. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming, he offered great suggestions. The waterfront views and casual yet upscale vibe made it the perfect little dinner date.

Kudos on a great happy hour! I wandered in after a few hours at the maritime museum and just wanted some oysters and while, while looking out over the ships and sea. The house wine and oysters were exactly what I was looking for, plus a tuna slider . Everyone was super friendly. I was only sad that happy hour seating is limited to the bar area so I couldn't cozy up right next to the window on the water as I had hoped. I get it though. Great spot on the water!

This has been on our list of places to try for awhile. The location has such great vibes, however that's it. Upon arrival, the hostess blankly stared at me and said "yeah?" Almost like I was disturbing her by coming in haha. I thought it was just me but based off other reviews that is the norm from these hostesses. Our waiter was kind & friendly, but our food was super flavorless and the presentation/quality of the food doesn't match the pricing. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.

Visiting San Diego during this holiday week, and as I was walking past the pier, I discovered this gem called Brigantine Seafood Oyster Bar. I got the Certified Sterling 12oz New York Steak as an entree and it was very good! It has a fancy feel to the location with beautiful views of the ocean; overlooking the aircraft carrier, and big nice expensive yachts. Overall, the food was good, the service here at Brigantine was prompt and staffs were friendly.

Lovely dinner with amazing service. The views here are stunning! Blackened Salmon - the salmon had charred exterior and was super tender! This entree was a generous portion of salmon & veggies. The creamy sauce with charred kale was the perfect addition. This entree had a lot of onions (which I enjoyed) but as an fyi to those who do not For dessert we had the mud pie and it was more like a huge slice of coffee ice cream cake. DELICIOUS Our server Mariah was kind, attentive, & helped the bday girl feel special on her day

Hanging out at a cool restaurant with a cocktail in hand, watching boats & stand up paddle boarders float by is my idea of a calm & relaxing day. I had such a day at Brigantine and although the skies were overcast, it didn't change the fact that I was enjoying the moment anyway. #ilovecoldweather THE FOOD. - Fresh Steamed Clams | I strangely loved the lemon grass which seemed to cut through the red curry-coconut broth; adding zesty and herbal notes for a harmonious blend of flavors. The clams, swimming in this beautiful broth, were tender and briny in taste. Highly recommend if you're in the search for something off the beaten path. - Brig Chowder | You know it's a good bowl of chowder when you don't have to search for the clams. However, I found a piece of plastic packaging in mine and chewed on it for a bit before realizing it wasn't clam. The waitress promptly replaced my dish and comped it from our bill. - Golden Ale-Battered Cod Fish & Chips | Cod is king (mildly fishy & delicately flaky) and the batter was perfectly light & crispy. It comes with garlic parmesan fries, housemade tartar & cocktail sauce. Absolutely try this dish out! - Macadamia Crusted Mahi | Mild, flaky Mahi fish combined with the nutty taste of macadamia nuts. A lemon beurre blanc (white butter sauce) is poured on top for added richness. It also comes with a side of creamy parmesan risotto & vegetables. Another dish I highly recommend trying. THE DRUNK DRINKS. - Second Chance Beer Co. (Mulligan Amber Ale) | Malty caramel sweetness. - Passionfruit Margarita | Tequila with passion fruit purée, lime juice, and tajin rim. The flavor profile is a vibrant mix of sweet, tangy, and slightly tart. THE PARKING. There's a parking lot in front of the restaurant, but it quickly fills up. If that happens, you can do valet or park further down the street and walk over. THE RESERVATION. Yeah, make reservations online, this place can get busy. THE RETURN? I'd come back. The vibe is great and so is the food.

Came here for Valentine's Day dinner and the food and service were good! We got 3 drinks, 3 appetizers, 2 entrees, and 1 dessert. For appetizers we got oysters, crab cake and clams. All were tasty and good portions (most the crab cake and the clams) For the entrees we got the macadamia crusted mahi and the swordfish. The fish were tasty but the risotto that came with the dish was a bit undercooked as we could feel some grains were hard in the center. Overall it was good though! For dessert we got the apple crisp which was a decent size as well! Including the 3 drinks we got I felt like we were able to get good quality food, service, and ambiance for an affordable price!

We ENJOYED our experience. The food and service were amazing. I'm so happy the food was just as good as the views. It was a busy Saturday night and I'm glad we had reservation. We sat outside which was perfect, especially during sunset. I had the swordfish, my friend went with the stuffed shrimp wrapped in back and my mom has the halibut. Everything was so delicious. If you're in the area I highly recommend.

The food was outstanding we had ordered the shrimp and grits and the steak. The service was very nice and they try to accommodate seating. With the bar upstairs you get DJ music no stop.

Crab cake was meh. Not the best, not impressed. Artichoke fritters were okay, and the fish and chips were average. Feels like you're paying for the views. Servers brought out the wrong food twice & service was slow. Wrongly informed of the daily specials. Menu is different around the restaurant seating and did not inform us of that. Best part of this experience was that the oysters were good and fresh. Not many vegetarian options.

Came here for a company dinner party and service was great. We had the event in the ballroom and were able to hold 60+ people. This restaurant is right along the ocean with such a gorgeous view especially at night. There is very minimal parking available, most people ended up doing valet. Appetizers were all so good! I would not recommend the clam chowder... Everything else was decent and satisfactory for a company dinner.

All the food was fantastic! Tyler our server was really helpful and was fabulous with any substitution requests. I wanted to try the swordfish but really wanted the sides from the salmon. No problem! The cauliflower puree was creamier than I expected but everything tasted great! The brussel sprouts were amazing!! Crispy with some pork belly bits? Yes please! The calamari wasn't my thing, more similar to a chicken tender fry technique than the light calamari rings that I'd prefer. I got a few bites of the mud pie and it was HUGE but delish. That ice cream with Oreo crust - how can you go wrong? And the VIEW!! It is beautiful! You can sit outside and really feel like you're on the water! It's pricy but it's a treat!

The ambiance was amazing, very well lit with comfy spacious seating, decorative lighting and natural light from the floor to ceiling windows facing the bay. Customer service was on point. The wagyu bacon and cheese burger my husband ordered was very good, not amazing. The "truffle" fries were fresh, lightly salted with a sprinkle of garlic? So so. My bowl of clam chowder was meh, tiny and few clams, half cup of cubed potatoes and a sprinkle of bacon. Wish it were thicker and more flavorful. This is the 2nd Brigantine I've visited.

I took some family here while they were visiting, and what a perfect spot for people outside of San Diego to get a taste of beautiful views, delicious food, and a lovely atmosphere! We all loved our food. The service was also great, it being busy and also being checked on consistently for anything we needed. The price is absolutely worth it & looking forward to coming back. Parking is not easy, but walking is the best option and perfect along the harbor!

Have been to this location many times. Recently brought a visiting friend. We went right around sunset, and it's hard to beat the view. Our waiter was friendly and informative about the menu. We opted to split a number of dishes, our favorite being the Brussel Sprouts and the Crab Cake. Everything was perfect

This is a beautiful restaurant on the water in San Diego. It's not a stuffy beautiful but rather a nice level of casual elegance. There are plenty of seating options including a large bar, dining room and outdoor seating. I stopped in for dinner and was somewhat on a time crunch. I didn't make a reservation but was seated quite quickly at the bar on a busy Friday evening. I started with a passion fruit margarita which definitely was not watered down as margaritas can often be. I do prefer a sweeter margarita and this one was not sweet but enjoyable. I also had the seasonal salmon which was amazing. The salmon was cooked to perfection and was very fresh. The composition of flavors made this a very interesting dish. Finally, for desert I had the bread pudding. It was very good and fresh. It was served warm and certainly was probably one of the better bread puddings that I've encountered. Service was attentive though not very friendly and welcoming. It seemed like they had a job to do, which they did, and they did that job...but I can't say the experience was enhanced by the serving staff in any manner. Overall, I'd recommend this place and would visit again.

I was looking forward to trying the fish tacos, but this location doesn't offer as many options as the Del Mar one. We ordered the octopus appetizer, which was excellent, and the lobster tacos entree, which came as a huge portion. The view from the patio was absolutely gorgeous and added to the experience. Overall, a pretty good meal--but I'd love to see more taco variety on the menu!

Great views, pretty good service, and solid food! I had the Crab and Shrimp Cobb salad, which was really refreshing and a large portion. My one gripe is that tables seated by the window are right next to each other on either side of the glass -- so I was awkwardly really close to the person sitting outside. The glass was pretty sound proof so I couldn't hear the people on the other side, but it was like I was sitting should to shoulder with them.

A beautiful bayside restaurant in San Diego across the street from our hotel. I ordered the appetizer crab cake. Solid! We shared the calamari fries. Not very appetizing to me. Pricey menu, but it is California. 98

Beautiful, waterfront location without the food to match. We ordered the Brussel Sprouts, Clam Chowder x 2, Fish Tacos, a Caesar Salad with Chicken and asked for some bread. Our waitress brought my water in a cracked glass. I had to flag someone down to get me another. Then the Brussel Sprouts and Chowders came out. We had to ask for place settings and after waiting around 5 minutes, I ended up going inside to get my own. Our waitress only came to the table once when I flagged her down. And again when I flagged her down to bring our check/present the dessert menu. The food was just not good. When your Brussel Sprouts appetizer is the highlight of the meal, that's sad. The Clam Chowder was bland, no clams or anything else in there to speak of. Inedible. The Caesar Salad was uneventful. The dressing, again bland, tasted like it was bottled. The Fish Tacos were ok. Not great not bad. After receiving our meals, the bread came out last after we were finished with our meal. The service didn't make us feel like we mattered. The food was amateur. Extremely disappointed in this visit. I expected upscale and our experience was very poor.

Fantastic service was a little disappointed. They charged me $30 for a side of salmon and then gave me the tiniest little salad possible instead of giving me a full salad either way besides that atmosphere is absolutely gorgeous. The server was fantastic.
