The local restaurant was closed on a day the web said it was open, so I took the 20 minute walk east to Ocean Beach and easily found the store. Don't bother with the $$$ water taxi, or the super sandy mid-road (with mini-ponds to go through after rain!) It is a lovely walk on the beach. Fruits, snacks, drinks and a really friendly staff made my lunch hunt easy. I was not immediately interested in the deli, but that was more about not wanting to carry a sandwich around on a hot day. *Tip: I would bring a plastic bag. My paper bag tore on the way back and seagulls snagged some of my snacks

Stopped in for lunch before heading to the beach and ordered for the 3 of us: a chicken sandwich, Seaview grilled cheese sandwich, pickle, macaroni salad, and antipasto salad. Sandwiches were ok, not great, Mac salad was pretty bland, antipasto salad was way too salty. Pickle was the best part of the lunch. The açaí bowls looked popular, though. No seating available, but we walked down to the bay, took a right, and ate on a bench overlooking the bay.

Complete disaster from start to finish. From the moment I…read morecalled to place a takeout order, it was an exercise in frustration. What should have been a 5-minute process took two phone calls and far too much patience. If you're going to have staff answering the phone, put them somewhere they can actually hear the customer. I spoke with two girls (sounded like teenagers) who had me repeat myself at least 7 times for every item I ordered. One even told the other, "I can't hear anything -- you do it." When I suggested they move somewhere quieter, the response was, "This is the quietest spot." Fine. I ordered 3 cold lobster rolls and 2 hot lobster rolls. She informed me they don't sell cold lobster rolls -- despite the fact they're clearly listed on their website. Fine again. When I finally finished the order and asked how long it would take, she just hung up on me. I called back, she recognized my wife's name, and casually told me it would be 15 minutes for 5 lobster rolls, a burger, and calamari. Odd, but fine. When we arrived, they informed us there was no calamari. We showed them the website with both hot and cold lobster rolls. The response? "Oh, I have no clue." The manager came over, and when we asked if the menu was changing, he said, "I hope so!" Not exactly reassuring. We got home (two toddlers and a baby in tow, so eating there wasn't an option) and opened the food -- and that's when it went from bad to insulting. Every roll was upside down with what little lobster there was spilling out. The bread wasn't even split open properly. We ended up scooping scraps of lobster with our fingers into the bread. For almost $200, this was an absolute embarrassment. I rarely write reviews, but this was so bad I hope a manager contacts us to make it right. In the meantime, do yourself a favor and order from literally anywhere else.

Our waitress didn't hesitate to prep the table for us when we requested to sit there again. When I was here a few years back, they had nachos and they were probably the best I've ever had.

First off, the location could not be more perfect. Just a quick stroll from the ferry and you're basically on their sunny deck, right by the water. We lucked out with a table outside, and between the gentle breeze and the panoramic bay views, it felt like the ideal kickoff to a beachy afternoon. For lunch, we started with the Tuna Tartare Stack, which was insanely fresh and beautifully plated. The combo of avocado, mango salsa, and seasoned chips was vibrant, flavorful, and super refreshing, exactly what you want on a summer day. But the real star was the Chicken Chipotle Wrap. I don't usually get excited about a wrap, but this was honestly one of the best chicken wraps I've ever tasted. It was stuffed with juicy grilled chicken, crunchy cabbage, super-fresh pico de gallo, creamy guacamole, and the perfect amount of chipotle crema for a little kick. Everything was so well-balanced and delicious ... I'm still thinking about that wrap! Service was fantastic from start to finish. Our server was warm, friendly, and genuinely seemed to enjoy being there! Offering great menu suggestions and making sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. If you're coming to Ocean Beach for a day or just passing through, Island Mermaid is the perfect spot to pop into for lunch right off the ferry. Amazing views, excellent food, and great service...what more can you ask for?

The minute we walked in, we felt transported to a Key West-inspired oasis. The vibe at Sandbar is everything you want in a beach bar ... veteran watering hole energy, live music playing, and a crowd that's having the best time. If you're into quirky décor, you'll love the hundreds of colorful flip flops hanging from the ceiling, each one signed by past patrons. It's fun to look up and read what previous visitors have written. There are even surfboards and nautical treasures everywhere, making the spot truly one-of-a-kind. We came especially for the famous Rocket Fuel ... if you've never had one, you're missing out! Rocket Fuel is a frozen, creamy concoction featuring pina colada mix, amaretto, and rum (usually topped with a float of 151). It's the quintessential Ocean Beach drink: frosty, sweet, a little indulgent, and just strong enough to get you in island mode without derailing your afternoon! We grabbed our Rocket Fuels, settled in, and enjoyed the vibes. The live music was awesome and kept the energy up with beachy classics and crowd favorites. Even in the afternoon, Sandbar was buzzing but never felt overcrowded or hectic. From friendly bartenders and great drinks, I look forward to returning here for a fun evening with my friends.
