“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“

“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!“

“They have changed the Poke bowls and now in order to get a smaller portion, you must have 1/2 traditional Poke and 1/2 Spicy. We wanted all traditional and they said NO. In order to get that you had to have the full portion. I just can't understand what the big deal is - it isn't like they were mixed together, they were separate on the bowl. It is the SAME Tuna!“

“Fish District is our favorite when we’re not cooking at home. The fish is consistently excellent—fresh, well-cooked, and fantastic every single time. The service is fast and friendly, with no fuss, which I appreciate. Located in a regular strip mall, it has the usual fast-food atmosphere—nothing extravagant, but it gets the job done. A reliable choice for a quick meal that satisfies!“

“Great food and awesome service“

“We met friends for dinner and what an amazing experience it was! Each course was delicious and the presentation was second to none. The service was genuine and every staff member was attentive and made us feel welcome. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Best TACOS in Sorrento Valley! Please stop by so they’ll stay in the area!“

“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.“

“The setting could not have been more beautiful. The food was delicious. The only notable area for improvement was the service. The hostesses spent at least 5-10 minutes looking up tables and answering the phone before even acknowledging our presence. The table service was friendly and helpful, but we had to ask for spoons and refills more than once. The service was fine, but improvement would make this a solid go to“

“our waiter was amazing. food was top notch had crab stuffed shrimp with jalapeño cheese sauce. Get it!!“

“I went to the restaurant today to book a table for two for Christmas. I didn't order anything but will update when I do. I'm impressed with the beautiful setting and atmosphere.

Additionaly, kudos to the hotel for hiring Jenna at the host table. She was so accommodating, polite and genuinely nice. Showed me around and helped me pick and save the best table for my dinner for two. Thanks Jenna!“

“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 �“

“Great food and very pleasant atmosphere, definitely recommend.“

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

“Enjoyed the poke at PokeLand in Mira Mesa! Ordered the regular poke bowl with salmon, spicy tuna, scallops, and many toppings and it was great! If you like it spicy there’s definitely spicy options. Fast, accommodating, and friendly service. Recommend!“

“The food and service were outstanding! The breakfast potatoes were particularly exceptional. I also had dinner there once and enjoyed the wings, which were very good. All the servers were friendly and pleasant. I would expect nothing less from a Hilton restaurant.“

“We had an amazing stay at L'Auberge Del Mar. The hotel was stunning—beautifully updated with modern finishes and stylish furnishings. Our room was exceptional, featuring an incredibly comfortable bed, luxurious bedding, a marble bathroom, and a breathtaking ocean view from the balcony. The hot tub was a perfect temperature for the cool May evening. On Saturday night, there was a gorgeous wedding on the rooftop, and we enjoyed listening to the music from the hot tub. It wrapped up around 10:30 p.m., allowing for a peaceful and restful night’s sleep. The staff was extremely courteous, and the valet service was top-notch. We will absolutely return to this beautiful hotel and highly recommend it to anyone considering a stay—don’t hesitate to book your room!“

“We made a reservation for thanksgiving dinner. I was surprised to be seated at folding tables and chairs that is not the dining experience we expected had when we booked our reservation. Had I known I would not have booked our family dinner there. When your spending $50+ person I would expect better seating arrangements. The server and staff were great!“

“One of the best meals I’ve ever had in Encinitas— A must try! This place feels fresh and inspired. You’re immediately transported to a trendy villa in Mexico with an aire of heritage and culture. The owner is from a successful line of restauranteurs in Mexico. It’s clear he knows what he’s doing from the atmosphere to the cuisine. The chips and salsa are delicious, fresh and unique (all made in house). We ordered the Mole Enchiladas and Tuna Tostadas, which were both incredible and would order again on our next visit. Then, of course, couldn’t resist the finale dessert of churros! (Filled with pastry cream with chocolate dunking sauce on the side). The entire experience was an absolute treat and I can’t wait to go back and introduce more people to this local gem.“

“We celebrated our 43rd anniversary at Steak 48. We throughly enjoyed it!! The food and atmosphere was top notch. We actually live in NYC and we are used to world class steak houses and this place is on par with them. I highly recommend this restaurant.“
