    Beautiful views and good service made this a 3.5 stars. Oddly, I wish I had ordered the $27 burger…read moreand fries. The Catamaran has two restaurants, Oceana and Moray's. As I understand it, Moray's is the outside/patio dining portion, while Oceana is the indoor fine-dining situation. I believe they pretty much have very similar menus, with Oceana having some additional high-end offerings. Came out to Moray's to visit my cousin who was in town for work. Since my cousin now has her most adorable infant, she wanted to keep it simple and dine at the hotel restaurant, which was fine by me. While I waited for them to come down from their room, I got us a patio table and ordered a delicious $10 draft. Mixed drinks were all hovering around $19 each. The server was friendly, welcoming, and helpful, which I greatly appreciated. I went with the reasonably priced Steak Frites, $36, which was to stated to come with Muenster cheese and caramelized onions on top, and served with a side chimichurri. While the steak was wonderfully cooked to a solid med. rare as requested, it seemingly had very little flavor. Perhaps had it not been covered with a wealth of some DEEPLY caramelized onions and an abundance of Muenster cheese, I might have been able to taste the seasonings and/or the beef. While I love some deeply caramelized onions on a salt-laden burger, the extent to which these were caramelized left them seeming soggy and too sweet for the steak pairing. Add in the several slices of melted Muenster cheese on top, and flavourwise I could hardly tell I was eating a steak. Ultimately, the abundance of toppings overwhelmed the steak. The accompanying chimichurri was also a little strange. While I appreciate that it was diced and not blended, it was very heavy on the oil, while very light on the herbs. The frites were nicely salted and good on their own, however a decent amount became soggy from being under the steak. The burger on the other hand looked excellent. My cousin devoured his in what seemed like a split second. I could have went for the burger, however at $27 I perceived the $36 steak frites to be of a better value. Again, shout out to our server. They were on-point! Thanks Moray's!

Our server was polite and provided decent service, but wasn't very personable. I ordered the pork sliders appetizer as an entree, which were ok, I didn't love them but didn't hate them either. It came with a side of mac salad which was also just ok. I'd give this place 3.5 stars overall, but added 1/2 a star for the views.

I got the Blacks Beach Fire Burger and the Bondi Bloody Mary, both of which were delicious. They were also really understanding about my friend's shellfish allergy and did their part to keep her safe.

As soon as you walk in you're greeted by the friendly bar tender, and are instructed to take a seat anywhere you'd like. The menu is available via QR code, and you order both your food and drinks at the bar. At the time we came in there weren't many people, but a crowd started gathering after about 30 minutes or so, which was nice! Our food came out - with a decent amount of wait time - and it looked great! We ordered a couple of cocktails from the menu as well, which we got right away. I had gotten something similar to an Espresso Martini, but the drink fell short in both the taste and the presentation. My beer battered fish tacos were good, but nothing extraordinary. I believed they lacked a bit of taste...perhaps seasoning? The jam burger on the other hand, extremely juicy and flavorful! The fries were nice and crispy & seasoned. Overall, the food and drink were a bit inconsistent, but it may also very well be the items I ordered. For that, I'm docking it one star, but again it may come down to my taste buds and previous items I've had from other grills. I'd definitely give it a try, again, and keep exploring their menu.

The bar was not really our vibe (it was very loud with minimal tiki theming and zero tiki music - the only thing that was truly tiki was the menu) but the staff and the large and interesting menu made up for it. We had a phenomenal time both nights talking drinks and ingredients with the bartenders and were so excited to come back. We came back yesterday when the bar opened at 5, hoping to have a quieter experience and the opportunity to talk with the bartenders again. Instead, the music was already blasting and they were in the middle of hosting a loud, drunk party. No worries, we were going to soldier through to have the Pandan Colada and explore the menu some more, until.... Horrors! We opened the menu. The drink list was now half the size. THERE IS NO MORE PANDAN COLADA. I saw some drinks that maybe might have been interesting, but it was not worth tolerating the late night drunken dance club vibes at 5pm to find out. There were no more banana drinks. It doesn't seem like any drinks now get lit on fire, which I admit is important to me. This place instantly went from one of our most important San Diego spots to visit to one not worth spending time in at all. We went next door to Captain's Quarters where we learned there's been a management change. So the Pandan Colada and multiple banana drinks on the menu are gone, as is our interest in ever returning. I wish all the best to the bartenders, who seemed to really care about what they were making, and I'd like to extend two middle fingers to the new management for breaking our Girl Drink Drunk hearts.
