    We were watching a band in the area while visiting Solano Beach and after the show got hungry. My…read morebf found this place nearby and the menu seemed promising so we gave it a try and I'm so glad we did. We got there kinda towards the end of the night but not too late. We sat at the bar and had a fantastic time chatting with Nick. He was so friendly and also a fantastic bartender. Gave us lots of recs for San Diego while we were in town. The espresso martinis he made were delicious as well. I think the restaurant is new and is so cute and clean (side note, the wallpaper in the bathroom is so fun I loved it!!!) To eat we ordered the Mezze platter, the crispy Spanish octopus, the snapper ceviche, and the empanadas. We really enjoyed it all. I think we both agreed the octopus was our favorite. If you know me or my reviews, we get octopus every restaurant we go to where it's on the menu. This was the first time we got the more than just the tentacles. I think it was the head as well? It was delicious and so different and tasted great. The dish was really crispy, and the sauce it came with was perfectly paired. My bf didn't like the ceviche as much as I did but I really enjoyed it. It was acidic/limey. I enjoyed it but he said it was okay/ too sour... to each their own! All in all, really enjoyed this restaurant. Would love to come back here, unfortunately we are back in FL, but if we come back to the area we will be back!

    Husband and I came here for the first time to have lunch and were amazed at how wonderful it was!…read moreOur server was prompt and so polite. We got seated quickly in their beautiful outdoor patio area with our 2 pups! The food was absolutely delicious! The wonton tostada, DEFINTELY my favorite!! I wish we got more orders! I was apprehensive about the tangerine in it at first, but it brought such a delicious sweet flavor to the tostada, literally devoured it so fast lol 20/10! The bone marrow quesadillas were good. The bone marrow was juicy, melt in your mouth flavor! I like to add a squeeze of lime on the marrow as well, tastes so good that way. The quesadilla itself was okay, tbh I could've done without it as it wasn't anything amazing. The bulgogi burger is on their monthly special menu! It's listed as sliders but when we came, our server informed us they only have it as a regular burger for the time being which wasn't an issue for us! It was delicious & filled with so much flavor! I loved the crunch from all the veggies inside as well. The fries it came with had some sort of sugar salt which wasn't my favorite, but still good. Overall we had an amazing first experience and will definitely be back & bring our family/friends!

    How to lose a good customer, here you go. I was in Del Mar…read moremeeting a friend and she had lunch today at Salt + Lime. She told me the waiter Omar told her that the girl with the spots in her skin (me) left without paying on May 14th when we were celebrating her birthday and that he was informing her just to let me know that probably they won't let me enter in the restaurant anymore. Well, this is absolutely ridiculous, so NOT true and so insulting. We were celebrating the birthday of that precise friend that told me this and another friend and I told the waiter Alejandro F that we will pay separately for our consumptions and whatever my friend ordered and then whoever was coming to the party later on will pay in whatever way they want. So we clarified we were going to pay separately and then I had to leave early and told Alejandro that my friend will pay for us as we informed to start with. Later that night I asked my friend what was my part and paid her my part. End of story. Now, not only they accuse me but when I talked to the manager over the phone (Omar put me in touch with him) this manager told me he was told and was not accusing me but the group. Well, manager, so your math, I showed the ticket that my friend sent me with the portion we paid and you should train your staff to make sure all the money due is paid at the end of the dinner and not false accusing someone a month later. I have never been so embarrassed in my life and apparently there were $80 missing which is anyways a ridiculous amount considering the many people with have been mentioning this place to and the good word we have put about the music and cozy ambiance. This is not the way to treat customers. No apologies, no maybe is OUR misunderstanding due to OUR bad management and our inabilility to do the math. Please change attitude and processes and stop accusing people of something they haven't done.

    I'm not normally an octopus or lemon bar person but the chef here changed my mind. That alone says…read moreeverything you need to know. This place has a wonderful intimate energy, perfect for sharing tapas and settling into a relaxed unhurried evening. The ambiance is warm and inviting, service was attentive and the food is genuinely adventurous in the best way- each small plate a little surprise for the palate. And yes order the crispy chicken. The seasonal menu has me excited to go back and see what they'll do next. Good wine, on site chill background dj, a true encinitas experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking for something a little different. This one is special.

    Here is my honest review. First of all the place is adorable. The decorations and the ambience is…read moregreat. The staff is friendly however they are extremely unprofessional during our entire meal. They were talking amongst each other so much that it was disturbing our conversations at our own dinner table. It also distracted the server from attending to us. There was a 45 minute wait between two tiny meals. We both left hungry. The short ribs were good, but the portion size is so small that it wasn't even enough serving for one person let alone too. The chicken was OK way over fried. Also, I think it's very cheesy to not have filtered water and expect your patrons to order a huge bottle of sparkling or Stillwater water to up the charge of the bill instead of just filtering water and offering that as an option. We really wanted to like this place and wanted to make it a regular spot for us but unfortunately to charge that much and the portions being so small, small and tiny. We both left feeling disappointed and hungry. Also, really taking a back about how Social the staff was amongst each other and that was more important than people eating there. If these things are changed, we will give it another chance. The salad was rather bitter, but on the menu, it didn't describe the breadcrumbs which I would've preferred not to have eaten. We asked a couple of questions to the server and they didn't even know what was on the food and had to ask the Sheff, which is unusual since the menu is so small, not a lot to memorize.
