"Sushi rolls, PEI mussels, and oysters on the half shell make fresh seafood the undeniable star of the menu at Waterbar San Diego. But the vegetarian options aren’t just an afterthought — roasted cauliflower in brown butter ponzu with togarashi almonds or roasted baby carrots with creme fraiche and crumbled walnuts allow Harken Chardonnay’s warm notes of butter and Bosc pear to shine." - Vox Creative


"Fresh seafood is the star of the menu at Waterbar San Diego, from sushi rolls to mussels coconut adobo, but don’t sleep on the vegetarian options. Think roasted baby carrots with cardamom, crème fraîche, orange gel, brown butter, walnut crumble, dill, and sumac or roasted cauliflower with lemon vinaigrette, tomato aioli, pepitas, garlic crumble, mint, and lemon. These options showcase flavor combinations that allow Astral Blanco’s subtle complexities to shine in an exhilarating margarita with grapefruit, lime, salt, and soda." - Mary Beth Abate
