18 Best Seafood Restaurants in La Jolla

“The best experience! Professional, yet very friendly staff. The crab cake is what always brings me back. The best anywhere! Drinks were perfect too! I love the Golden Hour cocktail! NY Bone-In steak is usually amazing,, but a little tough this time. Hubby was happy so that's what matters. You still can't find a better streak anywhere else. The view! Spectacular! Big blue ocean, sandy shores, and reflections of the sunset. Worth every dollar!“

“Great view, service and breakfast!“

“Of the best lobster roll outside. Lobster West in La Jolla serves up a buttery, packed-to-the-brim roll that's pure happiness. It's my go-to spot in San Diego for a seafood fix. Every bite is perfection, and the staff is super friendly. You can't beat it“

“Pesce freschissimo servito al momento, servizio veloce e amichevole, bella atmosfera, vini e acqua italiani. Ho ordinato un’insalata con gamberi e granchio, quando ho iniziato a mangiare ho visto che c’era della cipolla e la stavo togliendo, il proprietario accorgendosene è venuto da me per farmelo rifare. Un’attenzione fuori dal comune. ♥️“

“An absolutely amazing dining experience! Went at high tide (not King Tide) but still special having the waves come up to our window! It was our 21st wedding anniversary and they did everything to make it special. Special table right on the window with waves up to our window. Custom personalized menu and glass of champagne to toast. Stefano was so classy and treated us like royalty. No rush at all and excellent service all night. There were a few mistakes made like timing and steak a little undercooked but they were so apologetic and went way above and beyond service to correct and make things right (way more than necessary) The lobster bisque was probably best ever and our Poached Butter lobster and Waygu Ribeye were spectacular. Everything was fantastic and how they took care of us over very minor mistakes, was stellar! We will be back for other special occasions and highly recommend for special dining experience.“

“Where to begin,,,, Been coming here for 35 years! Was greeted by Nancy Odonell, the owner as we were seated. The ambiance is old school perfect! Fhe wait staff is top notch. And the food,,,,,, The food is on another level. Table side caesar salad for two. Grilled veal chop. New York cheese cake. Simply the best. In this era of the decline of fine dining restaurants, the is a true gem.“

“Absolutely amazing cuisine! Exceptional customer service! I would come again!“

“We were celebrating my fiancés birthday and our server Molly was delightful. All of her recommendations were spot on. We don’t drink and she suggested the best tasting mocktails. The entrees and dessert were absolutely delicious. The view over looking the cove was romantic. Overall Molly made this an unforgettable experience and we will definitely be coming back.“

The service was excellent and the options for Vegetarians were plenty. The prices were very reasonable and the location is excellent and easy to reach .“

“Very nice place. Quick service. You can order yourself and take the table number and they will serve your food pretty fast. Good portions of food. Lots of taco options. We took the chicken burrito, beer battered shrimp tacos and fries. All of them tasted so so good. The outside vibe is also pretty and nice. We loved the place.

“My bride and I just spent 4 nights at the hotel. It was very nice. The restaurant, to us, is the crown jewel. We had a superb dinner. The seafood was fabulous, our server (Steven) was a delight and of course the sunset! We had breakfast on our last morning and it was very good! We came here years ago when it was Elarios and we were not disappointed this time either! We will return!“

“Wonderful view of the beach and ocean and great mud pie!“
