    Cheese Quesadilla with Fries Kid's
    Stephanie A.

    This is our second year here for Veteran's day. Last year I came and I was preggies and I loved how they took care of me and my family. My husband and family spent our day in San Pedro celebrating our Veteran's Day so we decided to head back. The experience was just as good. I enjoyed the ahi tuna but I would recommend the calamari more. I loved the scallop entree and my son loved his quesadilla and fries. My husband was happy with his steak . The service was welcoming and so friendly . I believe our server was Barbara. I didn't get her name but that's what is on the cashier name Let's hope I got it right. Either way we had an amazing evening .

    This place epitomizes the current state of dining out. High prices, small portions, poor quality of food and non-attentive service. Our breakfast was tasteless and resembled something you would receive at a hospital cafeteria. In addition, the tables are too small for the booths. You have to sit on the edge of the seat to be close enough to reach the plate. Never again.

    We found this cozy little restaurant while visiting San Pedro last Friday. We wanted fish and this place ended up being perfect. We spent a while here, just enjoying the ambiance. We sat outdoors, and even though it was a hot day, a little breeze was coming up through South Shores. The bread that came with our pasta dishes was so good. The shrimp scampi I highly recommend the shrimp scampi, but beware it is enough for two people to share. The portions are very generous here from the 8 ounce wine pour to our appetizer of fried calamari - all was so generous and tasty. Our waitress Emily was very patient and kind courteous and professional.

    This restaurant is located in the corner of a Vons strip mall. Not too crowded for brunch during the week. There's seating outdoors on the sidewalk. I sat indoors, in a booth. The place is not that large inside, and you do forget you're in a strip mall. Not much ambiance though. I ordered the fresh fruit waffle and coffee. The waffle came with fresh bananas, strawberries, blueberries, and whipped cream. The waffle was a little chewy. No non dairy creamer available for coffee. Service was efficient.

    Service was a wee bit slow, I believe if there is children at the table they should be served first. Our server served our drinks then my kids something with the food served our plates then the kids last. As far as the food goes the steak was super chewy and tough not even enjoyable. French toast was alright super sweet with sweet cream drizzle powered sugar just a little too much for breakfast. Maybe if you're just planning to get a basic eggs, bacon and potatoes go here.

    Came here with my family. We were a group of 12 with my aunts and cousins... The food was good overall. Everyone seemed happy with what they ordered. The appetizers were great. We had raw oysters, Rockefeller oysters and calamari. Some of the main course items were slightly salty. Oddly, the kitchen felt the need to draw Seaside on each plate. We did not really like the desserts. Desserts didn't really taste all that good. Our server was excellent. Overall we had a good time.

    Love this place! Great service, food, atmosphere, everything. I had the french onion soup and french dip sandwich, it was really good. The soup had lots of cheese on it and the sandwich was perfect and very filling. I definitely plan on coming back!

    Very good cheese burger.

    My sisters and I went there as I was craving a burger. My sisters recommended this place. We all ordered the burger during happy hour and got 40% off. The burgers were big, cheesy and juicy. The accompanying fries were very good. I would definitely go back.

    The Seared Scallop dish was delicious, and as an appetizer I had the French Onion Soup!!! The service was amazing and the chefs prepared everything quickly!! Great spot to have our mini family reunion!

    Seafood Linguini- a great way to have a little bit of everything yummy! The shrimp were ginormous!
    Emily A.

    A quaint romantic spot with family vibes. Our server Melanie was friendly and knowledgeable she quickly explained the wine list and helped us identify a white wine we liked, an obvious pro! Delicious fresh bread when we sat down, we had the grilled artichoke, seafood linguini and cioppino. Food was outstanding and the linguini was a large enough portion that I had plenty of leftovers! First time there and we will be back to try the lunch menu! Thanks to the staff for making us feel very welcome.

The shrimp and potatoes were seasoned.l, so those were my favorite. Everything else was just alright. For the price point, I'd expect a better meal.

One downside is that they don't have a public restroom, so there's nowhere to wash your hands after digging into seafood. Be sure to bring your own hand sanitizer or wet wipes because you'll definitely want them! We ordered a pound of shrimp with snow crab and added corn and potatoes. We chose the mild seasoning, and while it still had a little kick for me, that's probably because I don't normally eat spicy food. The seafood was fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned. We also ordered the whole lobster, which ended up being one of the highlights of the meal. It was stir-fried with onions and green onions, served with a side of white rice, and absolutely delicious. One surprise was finding shrimps inside the lobster dish as well. We also shared the hearty seafood chowder and a beef skewer. We came hungry and managed to finish almost everything, with only some shrimps left in the seafood boil bag. A&J it's a great spot if you're craving fresh seafood. They do provide disposable gloves, but I'd still recommend bringing your own wipes since there's no sink available. We're already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu.

The menu, is a bit of this and a little of that. We really didn't know what we were in the mood for. I decided on 1 oyster and one scallop on the half shell. Very fresh, kind of small, servings. The sauce on each were unique and flavorful with a shallot accompaniment. Very nice though. Really balanced flow. The oyster, well I dont know how to express it any other way other than that you need this. You really do. I ordered the mushroom empenadas, my friend ordered steak tacos. The steak tacos were really good, with a nice portion. Meat had nice flavor, as did the aioli. No surprises with this dish, I mean steak tacos is self explanatory. The mushroom empenada was fantastic. Very rich, and filling. Just baked out of the oven with a perfect brown on the bread. Excellent flavor. Instead of the rosemary aioli, I had the mango jalapeño spread to dip into. Fantastic. Definitely coming back. Food took a bit to come out, but this isn't a fast casual dump. Its a little quiet neighborhood gem. Enjoy it.

I would have rated it perfect except it was a bit too salty, though not enough to ruin my experience. I chose this "appetizer" as my main course.

Super rich and creamy, the chowder has big chunks of clam which were not uniformly tender, but overall satisfying.

There were a few things that really stood out and made me very happy that I gave it a try. First, the red sauce in the salsa bar: very legit! Spicy, but very flavorful! I also tried the green chili/tomatillo sauce, which was also very good and good counter point to the unctuous marinated chicken. And they don't go cheap on the meat. Secondly, the corn tortillas were made in house and were hefty! Very tasty and held together where other tacos need two of the thin store-bought variety to have a hope to stand together. Very good. If I had the tiniest critique, I would say to add a tiny bit more salt to them, but I have a theory why they may go scant on it, and I respect that. Third, the beans and rice: The beans were very simple, but simply good. It takes a lot of guts to make and serve simple pinto beans boiled with salt. I know! What a concept! But simply delicious, and made to complement the rest of the food, and not distract from it. It takes a lot of confidence in my opinion for a restaurant to have such faith in their food to leave some that should be simple, simple. The same was true for the rice: simply well made, not over done with a ton of ingredients. It was well made: the individual grains didn't stick together. And it was unctuous without being overbearing. If I had to guess, I would say that they used broth and chicken fat. Simply good, and a complement to rest of the meal. Now to my theory. It makes sense that the masa would be light on the salt because it is the same masa that they use for pupusas, and the filling for pupusas (I just like that word) is savory and well seasoned. I'll let you now next time I got back and try the PUPUSAS! ;)

Lengua was kind of shredded into pieces and by the end of the taco I didn't really want to keep eating it. Chicken tasted like it was seasoned with a ramen packet or something just odd seasoning.
