“Absolutely loved our meal at Lilo. The tasting menu was creative, beautifully plated, and full of thoughtful little details. Each course felt distinct, and the balance of textures and flavors kept the meal interesting from start to finish. The service was warm and attentive without feeling overly formal.

The only minor miss was the chawanmushi, which was a touch salty for our taste, but everything else was excellent. A memorable experience and definitely somewhere I’d return to.“

“Great service too! My mouth watered the entire time and was completely satiated and beyond happy with all that we ate! New menu apparently, but I gotta get back before they change it again!“

“Great food and even better service. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. What really stood out, though, was the service, Mel, the manager, went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and genuinely happy with our experience. You can tell they care about both the food and the customers. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this spot.“

“JTB. EXELENTE. DEL MAR A SUMESA“

“It’s our annual place to be every August for the last 17 years: celebrating 50 years of marriage! The food, service and atmosphere right on the beach is heavenly. Our bartender Steve congratulated us and we talked for a short time. Everyone is so friendly, can’t beat the quality of their meals ! We drive out from Phoenix to have their specialty. Well worth the ride❤️❤️❤️“

“👍excelente comida, ambiente agradable“

“The crabcake sandwich was delicious. Great atmosphere and selection of seafood.“

“We had a wonderful family meal here! The staff was so friendly and accommodating from the moment we arrived. Every dish we had was fantastic, especially the clam chowder in a bread bowl, which was truly excellent. I'd also recommend trying the pear with prosciutto.
My wife, our three kids, and I enjoyed the food so much that we actually had to ask for seconds! On top of the amazing food, the location right next to the ocean makes it the perfect spot.“

“We arrived 15 minutes early to reservation but the staff sat us right away- Thank you. Our server, Alexis, was very friendly, prompt, attentive. I definitely recommend the deviled eggs as an app. The blackened fish sandwich was very good. All of the dishes served to our group were delicious- no complaints. Prices are very reasonable. We'll return!“

“Restaurant is beautiful and clean. Food is priced right, presented nicely and delicious!“

“I thought the service was very friendly. The bowls were reasonably priced. There is a large selection of proteins and other items for the bowls. Also, the service is fast.“

“Ohhhh.... I just had such a delicious shrimp po-boy sandwich at Fish District in Solana Beach!! And I'm a hard critic of po-boys being Cajun from Louisiana!! Plus their warm bread pudding was soooo yummy!! I'll be back!“

“Delicious and crispy! First time visiting, will definitely will be coming back. :)“

“Punta Mar was AMAZING! The service was sooo good - everyone was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely made the experience special. And the food? Even better than the pictures!

As someone who has spent time in Mexico City and knows how good Mexican food can be, I can honestly say I was impressed. The pictures really don’t do the food justice—you have to try it for yourself!

Everything was delicious, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. Thank you Jake for your amazing service.“

“Just had a wonderful dinner for 4 outside on the patio. The setting is beautiful and peaceful. Food was delicious. Loved the hamachi app, Caesar salad, lobster spaghetti, halibut, and the Brussel sprouts. Service was excellent. Very pricey but wonderful for a special occasion.“

“The sushi is amazing...baked salmon roll and Philly rolls are my go to!“

“Having driven past this restaurant for years, my wife and I had dinner there today.
I had fish and chips (3pcs). Excellent!. Crispy breading, crispy fries, and the fish was flaky and tender. 3 pieces was a lot of fish. I've paid 50% more at fancy restaurants for fair fish and chips.
My wife had ahi bowl. Lightly seared, nicely seasoned on a bed of salad. She ate all of it, about 5 oz.
Nice relaxed, casual atmosphere.“

“Dog friendly with outside seating. We ordered two EPIC hot lobster rolls (Connecticut style, warm with butter) and although they were delicious, for the EPIC PRICE OF $39 PER ROLL, it was very skimpy compared to what you get for that price in New England. They stack it high in the middle and don’t fill the bun to the ends to make it look super full. It’s not. The New England clam chowder was great though.“

“We were a party of five at your Le Mesa location on 3/22/26 and I believe our server's name was Diana. Our experience was absolutely fantastic! The food was superb, the facility was spotless and every member of the staff that interacted with was professional, helpful and friendly. Diana was fantastic! She has the perfect balance of friendly efficiency, light humor to match our personalities and spot on timing to check in with us. We can't wait to visit again! Thank you.“

“We live in Philly & love Richard Blais so when visiting my brother in San Diego we always have to check out any new spots by Chef Blais. We were so happy our trip last week included California English! Right away the decor & atmosphere draw you in, being both chic & comfortable. Our server was absolutely fantastic & the food could not have been better. Try the ricotta toast, fish & chips & sticky toffee & date cake, you won’t be disappointed!“

“It actually did not start off on a good note. Once we receded. We were next to a family with two horrible parents that let both their children scream and bang on plates the entire time. Not athe restaurants fault but the place should not be for children although I know it's resort so it has to be. Maybe they should put them in the back room or something . I got up after 15 minutes of being unable to take it anymore , talked to our amazing waiter Alex and he immediately moved us to the beautiful outside deck . From that point on everything was amazing, the service, the view and most of all the food. Alex was a great waiter, even singing some amazing ballads for us. He even remembered my wife when she was there a few months back. We will be back in 2 months and will definitely be dining there again.“

“excelente sabor, y la mejor atención“

“My wife and I had the gorgonzola beef filled ravioli with sliced filet. The sauce was really good, it wasn't super heavy and so tasty.
We also got a ricotta stuffed crust pizza that was basically like a margherita pizza except the crust was stuffed with ricotta. It was really good too.“

“It is a fun place to be! variety of foods available.“

“Great food and awesome service“

“South of Nick's, located in One Paseo, is a great restaurant with a great selection of Mexican cuisine. The delicious, not-overly-salty tortilla chips are served with beans and mild and hot salsas. I highly recommend ordering the fresh guacamole for the table to share; it's a great complement to the chips. It was difficult to choose an entree, but I went with the El Vaquero. The steak was cooked perfectly, with the enchilada being the best I've had in San Diego. It also came with filet taquitos, guac, and refried beans, all of which were wonderful. I highly recommend South of Nick's for your next dinner out, regardless of your party size.“

“BEST STEAK I EVER HAD SERVICE WAS ON POINT THINKING BOUT MAKING PLANS FOR THIS WEEKEND BEEN AT WORK THINKING BOIT THAT NY STRIP STEAK ALL DAY!“

“You are a restaurant that cooks from the heart, and I really enjoy your cooking and service.“

“I'd work here if they paid me in poke bowls. So good. Other places the fish is questionable but this place always has a great taste and seems fresh! Oh and since you got rid of your yummy fountain and now just have standard Pepsi $2+ is a little much for a little cup of a Pepsi product .... I miss the old options that were worth the money �“

“The food is soooo good, big portions and excellent service.“

“My wife and I had a nice dinner at The Fish Market while visiting Solana Beach.“

“5 stars! We had a great experience at Chin’s Restaurant. The food was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor, and the portions were very generous. You definitely get a lot of food for your money!
The service was friendly and attentive, and everything we ordered came out perfectly. Great food, big portions, and a very enjoyable experience. We’ll definitely be back!“

“It is a beautiful location with amazing food and service 🤗👏“

“Good portion and fresh food. I think their Pokeland sauce changed because it used to be better. Still a great place.“

“My favorite restaurant of boiling crab 🦀 🥵“

“Friendly and courteous staff, high quality and delicious food! Love their drinks and desserts as well. The menu is not overwhelming for me to choose! Lovely atmosphere!“

“It's a food truck it is either a hit or miss, but this was definitely a hit expensive but a hit. The seafood cocktail is amazing the juice was savory, the tacos are fire the size were pretty big. It's a truck worth visiting better than most Mariscos restaurants in San Marcos.“

“Great selection of fresh fish! Yum 😋“

“Outstanding restaurant! Great food, the shrimp cocktail is amazing and the taquitos are perfect. The bartender Adam is a real pro and makes perfect drinks and has a phenomenal positive attitude. I highly recommend this bar and restaurant if you like great drinks, great food, and amazing service!“

“It was just last night. Friday night around 7. I figured we'd have to wait a while to get a table but it was just my mom and I and we actually got seated quickly. We were seated in less than 3 minutes. The restaurant was pretty full too. Our waiter was very nice, quick and efficient. The appetizer came within 5 minutes and the main entree came soon after we finished our Queso Blanco which was so good!! I ordered the Carne Asada steak with beans and rice, onions guac, pico and soft tortillas. I would recommend that to anyone because it is literally the best tasting steak you will ever eat in your life!!
The only thing I was surprised about was they charge 4 bucks for fountain drinks. That seems a bit pricey to me. The food prices are all fair and competitive though. If you love Mexican food like I do, you definitely won't be disappointed!!
