I've always been a huge fan of poke...but let me tell you.. pole2plate is in a league of their own!…read moreI happened to be at a local San Diego tasting room (jaybird kombucha) when Pole2plate was there serving up poke bowls and OMG it was life changing! The quality of the tuna they were serving was unparalleled and there's a reason for that (as I came to find out after asking what their secret was lol) They are masters of their craft and keep everything local, wild, fresh, & sustainable. They literally partner with local fishermen and then fill same day orders with fish caught THAT VERY DAY. Brady, Bobby, and Matt are all so knowledgeable on not only their product, but also the urgency to protect local resources within their community. In a day and age dominated by corporate business and farm raised seafood--- they are truly a breath of fresh air at a much needed time, and I kid you not, your tastebuds will do cartwheels

I've ordered twice now from Pole2Plate and have been super satisfied with the quality of fish and…read moreservice. I used to go to Catalina Offshore and wait in line sometimes 20-30min. After having a baby it was harder to get away that long for some fresh catch. I'm excited to have a local fish shop to order from that delivers to your door.

Service 5/5 -Attentive and efficient staff, it was busy but we were seated and our food came out quickly. Food 5/5 -Combo A with two orders of white rice, I LOVED how fat and juicy their clams were, wow these were the meatiest clams I've had from a seafood boil place and they were super clean, no sand at all. Shrimp was really fresh because the meat was firm and not soggy at all, mussels and crawfish were also very solid. The quality of rice, sausage, potato, corn were all outstanding. I do wish there were more sauce to dip the seafood in. Ambiance 5/5 -Lighting was fun and very aquatic, this would be a fun place to come for family dinner or a celebration meal. Clean bathrooms and there's also a sink in the hallway for convenient hand washing.

All in all, it was simply wonderful. The hostess was very professional and welcoming and set the tone for our celebration. We were seated by a window to enjoy a beautiful, relaxing view of the bay which enhanced our experience. We were greeted promptly by Kyle who was our kind, knowledgeable, and patient server. He went over the complete menu and wine list with us and made suggestions when asked. We had the blackened chicken sandwich and the c level wagyu burger and both were terrific. The burger was cooked perfectly and went very well with the wine that was suggested. Kyle made the experience memorable for us and we hope to see him on our next visit. Thanks to all the staff for taking such good care of us.

It's pretty nice, food was good and the view is beautiful! Service was great. Servers were very kind and attentive. I had the warm spinach salad and friends had korean tofu bowl and mediterranean bowl. I tried to have a french onion soup too but i could only have a little. It was a fun time but as always sad when friends leave, but i'll see them soon in SF! Def recommend this place, was really good!

Food was fresh i'll give them that but same things at other Karina's were offered. I should have yelped it before just showing up. Food was good and service was slow but that's because there was only one server taking all orders. She was very sweet and attentive. Place is spacious its and it's a good place to watch any game. I would come back because this place is more relaxed and less people.

I live all the way to San Marcos so every time I'm down in San Diego I gotta bet my mango mango! It's just so delicious, fresh, and so tasty. I already bought my bf, my mom, my dad, my friends because I just couldn't stop talking about it, and yes, everyone fell in love as well. My mom had the cocktail and she said it tastes exactly how they make it in GUADALAJARA. I'm obsessed with this place, I wish they were closer To me Service is amazing always!

This wasn't just for our table either they showed the same attentiveness to every table around us, which stood out to me. I ordered the El Prieto raw - its an absolute must try ! Portions are huge ! Salsas/sauces are amazing and flavorful. Food is very, very fresh. Can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu. Plenty of seating inside and out and found parking not too far away which was nice.

The food quality was amazing. We had the oysters, calamari (so crunchy and light), scampi, and Chilean sea bass. It was all cooked to perfection. Giovanni was our waiter and he was fantastic. Anticipated our needs, made great recommendations for drink and food. We were never rushed. Will definitely come back next time we are in San Diego!

I've walked by this place so many times, but it was my first time going here…read more Ambiance was lively and they seemed plenty busy for a random Wednesday night. I am currently pregnant so I was limited on what I can get on the menu in terms of the fresh seafood. So I opted to get the shrimp Louie salad. My husband got the Chilean sea bass with the cauliflower puree and we shared the crab cake. We started with a few pieces of sourdough bread which was piping hot. They were really good. The crab cakes were good and came with a little side of pickled vegetables. The shrimp Louie salad was ok. I thought it was odd that everything on the plate was not cut. So I had to slice up all the lettuce. It was a flat plate so it was hard to toss the salad in the dressing. The way it was presented looked as if you're supposed to eat it as a wrap with your hands. I was not a fan of how I was supposed to eat it. My husband had the Chilean bass. I thought the plating was a little boring. Everything was brown like they could have added a little green garnish or a small side of veggies to liven it up. The actually dish tasted good. The bass was flaky and cauliflower purée was nice and smooth. Overall, I thought this place was ok. Maybe I'll come back to try a different dish, but I'm not rushing to go back.

All were fresh and delicious! - Charred Octopus ($25): Spanish octopus, chorizo, dive tapenade, sherry, spicy aioli. Octopus was cooked nicely, but I felt like they could've charred the exterior a little more. - Lobster Roll ($38): Got this twice now and I think before it used to be slightly bigger with more lobster meat but this time around it looked smaller. Taste is the same, just as delicious! - Chowder Fries ($14): I thought this would be really heavy and that I wouldn't like it but it's surprisingly good! They put the right amount of chowder on there so that the fries aren't too soggy. I also love the bacon bits! [Service] - Fast, friendly, helpful, attentive [Ambiance] - Fun, moderately-sized, sailor themed restaurant - Be careful in the restroom as it is really dimmed - Walked in Friday noon at 12:30pm and was seated right away. They had customers, but I wouldn't say it's too busy. [Overall] - This is my second time there and enjoyed both experiences! - Would go back for the oysters and would love to come back to try other dishes

The service was ok but it was crowded for a Wednesday. Therefore wait for refills on drinks or clearing of plates took a while. The toasted hot lobster roll was rich and tasty. The rockfish crisp was also very good. The sides were a good portion. The shrimp cocktail and scallops were a bit smaller than industry standards for fine dining. However they were tasty. Overall, this restaurant is great for seafood lovers who want an excellent cocktail. Interior is beautiful. The value is ok depending on the dish. Side dishes like fried rice and corn were excellent.
