Our server was fine and friendly. The food came out quickly. We had the chips and salsa (excellent). I asked for a non spicy salsa and my friends wanted spicy so they brought some of each. We split the the Heart of Palm Ceviche! So amazing and it was big with a beautiful presentation. Just delicious. I could have eaten that alone with no other items. It was a vegan Ceviche and the fish was not missed. My friends ordered really cool cocktails and raved about them. My one friend said that this is the only place she can get this particular cocktail and that she comes here just for it. I ordered 2 tacos (Mr. Asparagus and the Baja fish taco). Both delicious and they came with housemade potato chips (which I thought was weird until I tasted them). I was so full but I couldn't not eat the chips because they were so good. One friend ordered the Quesabirria and she didn't love it. It was very strange as it was wrapped in fried cheese. They also ordered the other tacos and loved them. The only one that didn't get a thumbs up was the Quesabirria. I am looking forward to introducing this restaurant to other friends. So good!

Ambiance is great with mostly outdoor seating! The Yogi taco was well seasoned, saucy, with a…read moredecent amount of filling. Honestly, 9/10 for a veggie taco because the filling was well seasoned and dressed. The asparagus taco was unfortunately a different story. The asparagus was prepared well, crunchy on the outside but still tender when you bite into it. However, it was not seasoned as well and paled in comparison to the Yogi. The shrimp taco was okay. I think they were very heavy handed with the toppings and dressings and did little in terms of the actual preparation of the shrimp. The chicken taco on the other hand was DELICIOUS. The meat was seasoned well and so juicy. The pineapple salsa was the perfect touch!

Their freshly baked cookies are pretty fantastic too! They also have a variety of frozen items you can take home and heat up yourself, including pies, breads, and more. Their menu is pretty simple. We went for breakfast, I had the avocado toast and added eggs. It was so refreshing, especially with the balsamic on top. My husband got two of their quiches, and we split a cinnamon roll. Everything I've tried so far has been delicious, and it's such a great option if you're limited to a gluten-free diet. The staff is also very friendly and happy to answer any questions you may have. The atmosphere is welcoming and inviting, and I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

I really wanted to like this place, but I left feeling pretty disappointed. One of the items that…read morecaught my eye was the "4-inch quiche" for $10. Based on the description, I expected an individual round quiche that was approximately 4 inches in diameter. Instead, I received a relatively small slice cut from a larger quiche, which was nowhere near what I would consider a 4-inch quiche. It essentially looked like a small little cake slice. They also don't display the quiche, instead they hide the quiche in the back so it just kinda feels deceptive. To make matters worse, the quiche itself was somewhat dry. For $10, I expected a 4" quiche and a better overall experience. I was genuinely excited to try this place and had high hopes, which made the experience even more disappointing. Hopefully the description can be clarified so future customers know exactly what they're ordering.

They cut the bruschetta into fourths so the last piece needed to be split between 3 people. There were always people checking on us and making sure to ask if we wanted anything else.

It…read moreseemed pretty popular since all the reservations during peak dinner time / sunset were booked, so we made a slightly later reservation around 8. They honored our request when we arrived to be by a window to be able to enjoy the view although it was already getting dark by that point, so it wasn't bright enough to really enjoy it but I'm sure it is a gorgeous location if we had been able to get in a little earlier! We had the grilled prawns appetizer which was so delicious but which also then surprised me with how bad my meal was after having such a great app. My husband's burger was fine and he enjoyed it, but the pan roasted chicken I ordered was just very bland. I'm not very picky but there was no seasoning on it at all, just a plain pan sauce made from the juices of very plain chicken. It was originally plated nicely before I took the photo I included, but I had cut into it to make sure it was cooked thoroughly before I tried it since it was very thick and it was cooked fine, just not seasoned with anything that I could taste or see visually. I had to ask for salt and pepper to add to it and our waitress never came to ask how our food was once we got it, so I had to wait for someone else passing by to ask for that. It wasn't too bad to eat but just not very enjoyable so I didn't eat most of it, and when our waitress came back to finally give us our check and I declined a to-go box for it she still never asked how everything was, so we didn't complain or bring it up. For such a good location and how good the app was, I would still recommend them just maybe not that dish!

This is probably my favorite brewery in all of San Diego as the views here are pretty sick and you…read morecan spot some cool birds while enjoying a beer and some food. I wonder if this is a location on eBird. Yes, I am a dork. I came here years ago while on a business trip and randomly found this place and loved it here. So when a date suggested we come here, I took a look at the venue and remembered what an awesome brewery this is! Date gets some brownie points for chosing this spot, maybe this could go somewhere haha. Parking is a situation here. But if you go past the restaurant, there is some parking on the road and in small lot meant for those enjoying nature. I felt bad taking one of these spots. There is paid public parking on the corner before the restaurant and valet is available at this brewery. I need to figure out another way to get here... On a Sunday afternoon, place had people but it wasnt mobbed. Baseball game and Del Mar horse races were showing on the TVs. But, don't come here to watch TV, look outside! I saw some very good bird action, including an egret doing some weird strutting in the lush greenery. I am bummed I forgot to bring my binoculars but I will be back here again soon with binocs ready! I started off with a hefeweisen and that was good, date had a Mexican lager x 2. I had the ceviche (pretty good) and had the aioli on the side. Date had a sandwich of some kind and copious amounts of fries. It took a lot of will power for me to not have any of those fries, they looked so yummy! I also had a watermelon beer, this had hints of watermelon flavor and I enjoyed it. Great spot for large groups too as there were a few large parties sitting in the "outside" space. Hostess initially asked if we wanted to sit "inside" or "outside," and I was confused as it all looked like outside to me haha. I guess this is SoCal, everything is open air. This is a nice spot to have convo, very spacious, lots of nice tables, we sat at a high top. I love perching higher up, kinda of like a bird haha! Waitresses here were all very good, some very cute too (eye candy is always appreciated). Overall, a really fun way to spend a Sunday summer afternoon! I'll be back!

Seven of us had dinner at Viewpoint last night, reservations for a table right by the lagoon, and…read morethe view was really pretty. Valet parking for $6 on site was easy and smooth. The restaurant is really loud when crowded and you can only talk to the person right next to you, but that worked ok in a group of 7 anyway--we just had multiple mini conversations. If you're planning a large group gathering, you might have to play musical chairs to catch up with everyone, unless everyone has naturally loud voices that carry. Most of the people in our group ordered beers, but I ordered a nonalcoholic prickly pear hibiscus ginger beer which was ok--pretty subtle, but it quenches the thirst all the same. I ordered the Farmer's burger (black bean) with added avocado and a side salad which comes with a lemon vinaigrette. I had to eat it with a knife and fork after removing the top bun. Very tasty. My daughter ordered crispy shrimp tacos which she really enjoyed. Most people ordered the backyard burger which looked pretty good--choice of fries or side salad. Freddy our server was friendly and helpful. Overall a good dining experience!

Only things I wish was for more veggies and maybe the option to have brown rice instead of white. I think you can add a protein, so if you get this, I'd recommend adding tofu! Would be delicious with this plant based protein.

It's closer to where I live. Every time I go, I have the best experience. Not only is the food amazing, the views-unreal, but the service is always great. My friend and I always sit in the same spot it's like the bar but not. It's its own little spot to the right of the bar and I think it's the best seat in the house. Food- I've had pretty much everything here I think! Nothing ever disappoints. My faves: -Bee's Board- #1 by far. I always order extra pita. The pita is like a warm pillow. You can't not inhale it, it's that good. It comes with honey goat cheese, artichoke hummus, veggies, olives, a ton of good stuff! -Crab cake- a legit blue lump panko crab cake that doesn't use a ton of breading and no crab like most places. It's super fresh and delightful. -Lamb & beef meatballs- I don't know if it's the lamb/beef combo but these are so good. I pretty much get them every time I go. Loads of flavor and always cooked perfectly. -Truffle Parm fries are a must if you like truffle. I've had a ton of other things that are all fabulous but those are a few of my faves. Oh! We also got a dessert last time we went. I am not a huge dessert or sweets person at all but we housed it and it was bigger than my head if that tells you anything. It was a Baklava ice cream cake. Come onnnn. It had walnuts, nutmeg, cinnamon honey drizzle. I was very annoying eating it because every bite I had to dramatically sigh because I couldn't handle how good it was. *When indulging, always go for the champs deals they have I believe on the weekends!

We were seated in a pretty dark corner, so I politely asked the hostess if we could move to one of the several open tables in a brighter area. She told us we couldn't because a party of five would be sitting there shortly, which I completely understood. About 10 minutes later, though, they seated a party of two at the exact table we had asked to move to. There were also 6+ other open tables throughout the restaurant, so the whole interaction felt strange and unnecessarily inflexible. Our server was very nice, and I had enjoyed this restaurant previously, but the seating experience definitely put a damper on our date night and left us feeling a little unwelcome. Food is okay. I visited on 8/14 at 4:30pm

Like a said customer service was nice but there was a couple mishaps. One, a waiter dropped a whole soup on my Goddaughter's mom's back & hair & dress, yes he said he was sorry but could have meant it a bit more.. Luckily my friend didn't say nothing was calm got up went to the bathroom with friends to clean up came back & just said, this sucks I just had my hair done. The waiter could have offer a free drink or appetizer at least. Then when the bill came & we paid we noticed all our checks were wrong some of us paid for other people's items. They didn't know how to fix it so we just fixed it ourselves by paying each other on Venmo what ever we owed each other. It was an inconvenience, food was good tho & spot very nice & loved the burger but not sure I'll come back because it is a bit pricey & just expected a bit more customer service wise.
