Ate here while on vacation and everything was delicious. We sat at the bar and the bartender was really personable and took great care of us.
The food is amazing. Highly recommend the firecracker calamari and the OC Salad. My stuffed lobster was perfect and I also really enjoyed the Chocolate Mousse Cake. This is a special place with a relaxing atmosphere and outstanding service. I highly recommend.
I have two words for you, Malibu chicken. This is a favorite in our home. Our family finds themselves just wanting to go there for this alone sometimes it is that good!! My son also really enjoys their salmon dish. I wish Otter Cove had more visibility to gain more recognition because it’s fully deserved. Well, not on a main strip it is worth the drive!The food is really really delicious and you owe it to yourself to go there for a treat!
