Our server Jacob was definitely a highlight of the evening along with fantastic cocktails and amazing food. The Monterey Bay Black Cod served with corn chowder was delicious - every bite was perfection!
When my wife and I travel, we enjoy fine dining whenever it might be available. Visiting Santa Cruz for the first time, we discovered Hook & Line and decided to give it a try. The host, as she guided us to a table asked if we preferred lively or quiet. We indicated quiet and were seated at a perfect table buffered from the energy near the bar. Our decision to head here was completely validated and then some. The cocktails before dinner were outstanding. My wife had the Pinks Margarita...read full review
Excellent food, yummy raw oysters sampler (tried all of them). Halibut was divine. Breadpudding great. Drinks including the non-alcoholic great options. Great service.

Hook & Line is a great spot with a fun semi-industrial vibe. The happy hour menu is very affordable and has great choices, including excellent oysters and delicious crab cakes. The staff are one of the best, providing phenomenal service with attention to detail. The food is excellent, with incredible flavors and a wide variety of fresh ingredients in every dish. The seafood is fresh, and dishes like mussels, grilled oysters, and seafood chowder are available. The dessert is good, and there are also great NA drink options and mocktails. However, some find the portions to be a bit small for the price. The ambiance is perfect for a date night, lively yet intimate, and the restaurant can also accommodate larger parties. Overall, Hook & Line is a solid choice, with great food, service, and ambiance, making it a recommended spot to visit, especially during happy hour. The staff's attentiveness and friendliness add to the overall experience, making it a great place to celebrate special occasions. With its creative cocktail menu and quality mocktails, Hook & Line has something for everyone.
