My wife and I usually enjoy trying local bars for food, and this place is easily a 5+ star experience. What really makes a difference is how the staff greets you, and Aris along with the whole team were fantastic welcoming, friendly, and genuinely engaging.

We are locals, love breakfast and brunch and are fans of the original Ketch Joanne's. We're also…read morefans of the current owners of Jetty Wave, who are presenting a new incarnation of Joanne's under the name Ketch Harbor Pub. Curious about what the new/old place is like, our three-person family went there for a late breakfast today. Walking up to the front doors, the original inset stained glass remains. Walking in, the cool wood paneling and nautical decor remains in place with a couple of new touches. The fully appointed bar also remains, now with a more streamlined look with subtle lighting changes. We were greeted pleasantly and seated inside the dining room immediately; it was moderately busy and buzzing, not too loud. Our server was quick to our table, menu-knowledgeable and consistent in his attention to us. We had a Denver omelette, a couple of bennies and lemon ricotta pancakes to share. My omelette had particularly fresh and al fresca peppers and onions - wonderful. The lemon ricotta pancakes were sufficiently saturated and fluffy(hard to pull off)and came with fresh cream. The prices were at about the same level as the local competition, which pleasantly surprised us. It appears that the folks who did this breakfast/lunch reboot were shrewd in pricing their dishes. Jetty Wave, a drinks and appetizers adventure(which I heartily recommend as well for different reasons)in the northwestern part of Princeton, is not for the fiscally faint hearted. The only element that makes our experience short of a 5 is that we were not given a farewell when we left, though I was able to find our friendly server and thanked him. In all, the Joanne's legacy is intact - the old carved wood Ketch Joanne sign still hangs inside - literally and figuratively a homage to its legacy while bringing a new energy to this space. Recommended.

We stopped by for lunch on a crisp day, and it completely captured that perfect coastal vibe--think fresh seafood, laid-back atmosphere, and killer views of the boats and water. We started with the calamari, which was hands-down some of the best I've ever had: tender, not rubbery at all, perfectly seasoned and fried, melting in your mouth. The New England-style clam chowder was rich, creamy, with just the right subtle smokiness and balanced seasoning--definitely lives up to Half Moon Bay's chowder reputation. For mains, the Dungeness crab sandwich was the star: generous lumps of sweet local crab, minimal sauce (just how I like it), on toasted sourdough with fries on the side. My partner went with the fish and chips, and the cod was crispy, flaky, and not greasy at all--classic done right. The outdoor patio with fire pits was cozy even in cooler weather, and our server was super friendly, attentive, and full of local recommendations. The place feels welcoming, whether you're a regular from the Coastside or just passing through after a beach walk or harbor stroll. Prices are fair for the fresh, quality ingredients and location--definitely worth it. We've already added it to our list for the next trip to Half Moon Bay. Highly recommend if you're craving solid seafood in a charming harborside setting! 5/5 stars.

My wife and I ate here for breakfast yesterday. The food was good, but there was a problem with…read morethe rear door that was allowing cold outside air to blow right at our table. Everything was find at first and then they started seating people outside. The door was wide open to allow people to come and go. However, it was very cold outside and our table was near that door. We asked the staff to keep the door closed and they closed it most of the way, but blocked it open with a door stop. This still allowed a cold breeze to come right at our table. My wife's food got cold and she was feeling cold. The staff said that they could do nothing as the door automatically locks. The door was a standard push bar to open. These doors have a mechanism that can be used to unlock the door; however the staff either did not know how their door worked or were unwilling to even try to unlock it. So we were cold and ate cold food. The food itself was good. My wife enjoyed (until they got cold due to the wind) her Lumberjack pancakes with bananas and berries ($11.99) and a side of bacon ($5.99). I had a delicious side order of Linguica ($5.99) with a side of two eggs over easy ($4.99). They should really warn people before seating them by the back door on a cold day when they intend to use the outdoor tables.

You order at the register and then grab your food from their pick up area. It wasn't that crowded on a Friday morning (maybe 2-3 other parties there). They also have lawn games (corn hole, jenga, etc.). I ordered their breakfast burrito ($15-$16) and it was pretty big (ate 3/4 of it before getting full). The taste was good and it comes with a salsa (not my favorite so I used hot sauce).

A half portion was quite large and I feel like it could be a whole meal. 3) I wasn't really feeling the burger, but boyfriend really liked it and happily finished my leftovers 4) Grilled chicken sandwich was good but I would request no sour cream next time. 5) Chocolate malted milkshake was delicious, whipped cream was a bit too sweet. Vibes are good. They only have outdoor seating but it was nice and there are heat lamps, good shade. Only one bathroom, which had a very long line the entire time we were there. Order at the counter, pick up your food at the window, bus your own table.

This restaurant is a copycat of the crêpe vine in San Francisco on Irving Street. Also another location multiple locations one in Burlingame. All great restaurants. However, my omelette was good, but not comparable to the other crêpe fines in the Bay Area the size of the omelette and the ingredients always lacking ingredients at the Mavericks. However, somewhat tasty. Justin was very pleasant and did a great job. Excellent with her communication. My oatmeal pancake was basically not child size with baby size, very small. Coffee was good. Service was good. Maybe next time I should tell him I'm an adult not a child so I can have an adult size oatmeal pancake. Atmosphere, good music a little loud, but they had some great tunes.

Pulling up a board with a hot coffee and a pie is honestly the perfect way to spend an afternoon. It gives the place a cozy, lingering vibe where you actually want to stick around.

The Habanero Chicken Pot Pie was SPICY which I love! I mean it's Habanero it's supposed to be spicy. Although the Pot Pies are on the small side. Still very delicious.
