    The lobster tail and the salmon are amazing! Also loved the 5 tastes for dessert. Great food, wonderful view. Book a table near the window before you go and watch the beautiful sunset.

    Add drama to your oceanview dinner by timing it around the high tides (seasonal schedule available on the web site). At no other restaurant in San Diego does the surf crash against the windows.

    Executive Chef Bernard Guillas and Chef de Cuisine Ron Oliver helm this iconic dining institution, which has been in the same waterfront spot for over 70 years.

    Amazing views and great food, but the atmosphere is a bit stuffy. You're really here for the view, as San Diego has similar amazing food at less pretentious places.

    Probably the most romantic dinning in San Diego. The French cuisine is outstanding and the view amazing. Visit the bar to see the great wash-out of the late 1970's

    Ask for the 4-G martini! Every table in the restaurant has an amazing view, best place to watch the sunset.

    Impressive scenic views. Just came for a drink. The bar does not face the ocean. My cocktail has a long list of ingredients but disappointing. Don't expect much niceness from the cocktail waitress 😒

    This is a restaurant in La Jolla that is a landmark for a great diving location where you have easy shore entry and lots of marine life to see!

    Chef Bernard and Chef Oliver are genius! They also have a great book titled Flying Pans--it's a MUST for your collection.
