OMG! A must visit! Phenomenal food, ambience, great beers bubbles, and they have wine. All the staff was amazing. Freddy was our server, great dude from the get go, provided excellent customer service and then we met Kyle the GM. Both guys are amazing human beings. Kyle spent extra time with us, getting to know us on a personal level. He found out it was our anniversary and made sure we got a little something special! Kyle, it was more than special, thank you! #Norcal! read more

I really liked this place! Ordered the farmers burger which was delicious. As a vegetarian, it's always nice to see places that have bean-based patties and not impossible meat. I got my burger with truffle fries which were delicious. I did not like the ketchup which I feel was house made- it was very vinegary. My partner liked his burger too but disliked the ketchup. He ordered "Sprite" but was not convinced it was Sprite and maybe a lemon lime dupe. We ordered the ceviche which was amazing and had wonderful flavor. Could have used a few more chips. The burgers were very big so you'll definitely get your moneys worth. A couple things for feedback: we put a note in the reservation it was our anniversary but no one followed up about it or asked us if we were celebrating anything. The host didn't ask us preference for inside or outside seating. We would've preferred outdoors and seemed like there were tables out there. The parking situation is not ideal, it'll be $6-10. read more

Vacationing in CA., my friend and I were here last year 2023. Back in CA. again and this visit we came here for lunch twice. We really love this place to come chill, relax and enjoy the beers and food. The service is always good, very friendly and attentive. Both time, we came for lunch. Plenty of indoor and patio seating, plus dog friendly. First visit, we weren't super hungry so we split a Backyard Burger, the kitchen was nice enough to cut it in half for us. The Second visit, my friend wanted his own Backyard Burger LOL and I ordered the Avocado Chilaquiles, it was so good. We'll be back again in 2025! Atmosphere: lofty relaxing vibe, bright and airy. Food: very good. Service: excellent. read more

Came here for a birthday outing, our server was very helpful with drink selections and food recommendations. Our water bottle refills were also done in a very quick manner. I've never had a bad time at Viewpoint! My food order was forgotten this night and I received my food after everyone had finished. I honestly should have spoke up sooner but I just assumed my order took a little longer. BUT the server comped my meal. I also wasn't drinking so this was the only thing I had ordered. I ate my food when everyone else was done but how could I be upset when this sandwich was a masterpiece. When I close my eyes I taste this sandwich... I know I was just here but everyday I am tempted to drive back here and eat this sandwich again.... I love how this place overlooks the lagoon and the outdoor area is peaceful. Family friendly establishment, lots of kids running around it was very cute. there's also tables with fire pits in the center which really sets the mood for me. read more

Food is delicious and so is the ambience, BUT there are SO MANY dogs. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for having pets and sharing spaces, but we had at least a dozen dog hairs on our food from different fur animals. I had to stop eating my food.... read more

Tried this place for my husband's birthday celebration with our friends and family . We had reservations for a party of 11 people. The place is nice, no parking though so you gotta valet. They were able to sit us pretty fast. We ordered lots of food and we were super disappointed after trying the food.Most of stuff we ordered didn't taste good or does have much flavor... The thing that was good were drinks , they had lots of options for you to try... but the food was underwhelming. read more

Bright and airy interior and also exterior seat seating on the water, a Great date spot! The Bier list is lengthy and delicious, as well as the wine and drinks as well. Dinner entrées were big portions and Salads were great, also, our appetizers were delicious and plentiful. Our servers were friendly and accommodating and got to take a walk right on the bay Inlet afterwards. Nice place. read more

Food: B. We ordered the chicken pot pie, ceviche, and artichoke flatbread. Our food was bland & lacked "sazón"(marrying of flavors) seasoning. Your chef needs to step up the flavor. My flatbread had minuscule amounts of artichoke and was super dry. Our dessert was apple pie w/vanilla ice cream and that was delish!!! Service: A+. Upon arrival, we were immediately greeted by a very friendly hostess. Our server was ok. Atmosphere: A+, casual with an open-air feeling. read more

Love the view!! Parking is tough specially on the weekends. Beers were delicious. We definitely will be back for the food. Exceptional service!! read more

The service was great and the ambiance was nice-there's a relaxing view of the marsh. Many pet owners brought dogs, who happily sat on the seats (instead of the ground). My children liked their mac-n-cheese, but sadly us adults weren't happy at all with our meals. The Mushroom Flatbread had the texture of hard crackers. We didn't know that requesting "no cheese" also meant that there wouldn't be any sauce on it. So, it was dry and VERY HARD (the flat bread). We also ordered the Chicken Pot Pie, which sat on a brown gravy (beef?). The crust of the pie was flaky and cooked well, but the gravy didn't compliment it at all. Plus, the filling was dry (too many veggies/not enough sauce) and flavorless. Finally, the Sprite was flat! No, most people aren't ordering sodas here, but hey...the soda was like drinking sweet water. We won't return.... Unfortunately, we haven't been that impressed by the highly rated restaurants in Del Mar. ***Valet parking is required for $5. read more

Lunch at Viewpoint Brewing with the family = 10/10 vibes. We rolled up and the valet was already setting the tone--friendly, chill, and clearly loving life. No stress, just good energy right from the start. We didn't have a reservation, but the hostess worked some magic and got us seated in no time. Props to her for saving us from becoming hangry. Our server? Awesome. Friendly, helpful, and knew the menu like a pro. I went with the flat iron steak frites (no regrets) and paired it with not one, but two Penitent Man beers--because one just wasn't enough. The combo hit the spot. Between the food, drinks, cool vibe, and killer views, this place checks all the boxes. Definitely recommend Viewpoint Brewing--and yes, I'm already planning my return trip. read more

I attended a work function to welcome a new staff member and decided to have dinner at Viewpoint Brewing Co. in Delmar-Solana Beach. Parking is available in a dirt lot with rock pebbles surrounding the area. Payment is required for parking, but there is additional parking about half a mile away from the brewery. The hostesses were all nice and the area is nestled alongside the San Dieguito River. We sat on the outside patio and enjoyed watching fish jumping up and down in the river. This place is not too far from the Del Mar Fair as well. I ordered a local ale alongside the veggie burger. I was surprised by how tasty and flavorful the burger was. The veggies were crisp and fresh. On my way out, I noticed a series of lockers mounted on the wall with beer mugs bearing the names of what could be frequent patrons of the restaurant. read more

Forced valet parking for $6 on site. View is disappointing considering the name..wouldn't recommend based on the parking situation alone

A fantastic spot to relax with a beautiful view! The portions are generous and absolutely worth the price. Their burger is a must-try! From the warm welcome of the hostess to the attentive waitress and efficient runners, the service was seamless and friendly. Our food arrived quickly and perfectly prepared. Truly a well-run team that makes the experience memorable. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

This brewery has been on my list for a while. Finally, I took the time to make a quick stop before meeting up with friends in San Diego. Had arrived around 1045am on a Saturday. There was no free parking onsite except valet. Luckily, there was a little parking space down the road in front of the lagoon. A very short walk to the brewery, which wasn't so bad. As I walked in, the hostess warmly greeted me then directed me to an outside bar with a beautiful lagoon view. I had ordered flight beers consisting of three flavors of my choice. Just Peachy, Bari's Passion, and Creme De La Creme were my choices. All fruity beers with interesting vibes. My favorite was the Creme De La Creme. It tasted like a Cream Soda. It was nice to just sit embracing in taking appreciating nature as I'm enjoying a few beers. Service was phenomenal provided by Ryan. Very nice and friendly prompt with any answers I needed. Thanks to him for the wonderful experience I had at the brewery. Put this on your list when you are in Del Mar. You won't be disappointed. read more

We had such a great experience. All the wait staff was so friendly. Poor things we really put them to the test as we moved table a couple of time. Started on the patio enjoying the view but decided to move in to a table so we could all talk easier and weren't in a row. I'm not the biggest beer person but everyone i was with was happy and I enjoyed their red wine blend from paso Robles. They even have a monthly mug club where you get to store your own special mug in a locker. Valet parking for $5 was also a great bonus. Head over and check them out read more

Good food, phenomenal view and very dog friendly. Excellent place to get a burger and brew.

Had a farewell dinner with some friends after a workday. Nice location, beautiful view, and great food/drinks! The biggest turnoff for this place is the parking. It took the majority of our party 20+ mins each to find parking since the lot attached/next door are both small and fill up quickly. If you plan to park in their lot, be prepared to double park as about half the lot is dedicated to double parking. The brewery has a system to keep tabs on who blocks cars in so they can contact them if someone decides to leave, but if you plan to stay for a while you'll be fine. Aside from parking, everything else was great! Very spacious, outdoor seating. Lovely view of the water, the staff were nice, and everything we ate and drank was great! Perfect place to hang out with your friends and would definitely recommend for anyone in the Del Mar area. read more

Food was average but beer was good! Would come back here for the views and a drink. The restaurant itself is nicely kept. Plenty of seating and fresh air. The view is great! They do offer valet which we found to be cheaper than the nearby parking lots. Very pet and family friendly. They have casual bar seating overlooking the lagoon. Service was good. They kept coming around to help clear up dirty plates/check in. Food also came out fairly quickly. Although the food wasn't bad, we all agreed that it lacked some flavor and tasted pretty avg. We were a bit disappointed when we heard they no longer offered the banana pudding as a few of us had seen multiple photos on their yelp and it looked yummy. Overall, nice spot to check out and grab a beer/appetizer at when in the area! read more

I attended a company dinner here and ordered a Thai chicken sandwich with a side of Caesar salad. I also ordered the kombucha - blueberry flavored. The chicken sandwich turned out to be humongous so it was a rather messy sandwich to eat. I had plenty left over to bring home and saved room to eat a little of their basque cheesecake . It was good as it was paired with different fruits and goji berries read more

We had a reservation, but sadly could not be seated right away. Sat at bar and then moved to a table. Cool vibe. The service was slow to start, but got better. The food was a disappointment. We ordered grilled chicken sandwich 4/5, back yard burger 3/5, truffle fries 4.5/5, sweet potato fries 4.5/5, and fried chicken sandwich 3/5. The beer I had Dubbel Vision Belgian Strong Ale is very good 5/5. read more

Beers were good. Although it took 30 minutes to get them. Service was beyond awful. Plenty of staff running around, but our server was usually MIA. Food was really bad. Got shrimp tacos and literally had 5 actual shrimp between two tacos. And way overcooked and rubbery. Won't be back. read more

What a wonderful back patio area with the best view across the ancient flood plain that is Del Mar - this is a great spot for forth of July and a great place to enjoy wine with a side of brussels sprouts while sitting next to a fire pit.

This place was really cool. At first I thought my GPS sent me to the wrong place, because it looked like a warehouse from the parking area. but realized quickly that once you walk through the doors, it opens up to a great restaurant with lagoon views. We ordered the croissant breakfast sandwich and a Korean steak sandwich. They were both wonderful!! The aioli sauce was spicy and awesome!! I loved my sandwich. Hubby got the Koran steak sandwich and it was delicious too. I also had the tangerine mimosa. Yumm!! The vibe there was great! Lots of people just enjoying the beautiful Sunday. The food was great, the place was awesome. But I only give it a 4 star because our waitress couldn't remember to bring me ketchup...and I asked her 3 times. She came by several times to ask if we needed anything, and 3 times I asked for ketchup. Each time she acted like it was the first time I requested ketchup, but still never got it. Needless to say, I left a bunch of French fries uneaten because I didn't get ketchup. They were great French fries too. So I was sad. And a little irritated!! read more

I haven't been here for way too long and finally was able to stop in. Parking is always a little tricky but worth it. They were offering only valet parking for $5. We were seated at the picnic tables around the right corner, since my niece was with us. They switched up the menu a little since last time I was in. We ordered the adobada fries and ceviche to start, which were really good. For our mains, we ordered Mac and cheese, quesabirria tacos, mushroom burger, spaghetti squash and flatiron steak with fries. The quesabirria tacos left a little more to be desired but everything else was delicious like the truffle fries! Now that the weather has cooled off, it's a great place to stop in before going to the races or to watch a game. read more

Came here last Sunday with my best friend and her dog and we had such a fun afternoon! The place is huge and super dog friendly. Our server who was also the bartender was great. Very friendly and attentive. Basically anywhere you sit, you will have a nice view. We ordered the mushroom flatbread and the Caesar-ish salad with grilled chicken. Both were good. I would get the salad again but probably try something other than the mushroom flatbread. The parking can get a little tight but they have double spots. Make sure you leave your phone number if you park behind someone so they can leave if they need to. read more

My experience here was so underwhelming that I'm surprised their Yelp rating is this high. Some positives from visiting here: we were seated quickly and this is a dog friendly restaurant. Those were the only positives. Other parts of this experience were negative. To start, our waitress was very short with us. We felt rushed to order. Once we decided, we ordered the classic breakfast plate ($14) and the backyard burger ($20!). My friend's whole breakfast plate, except for her eggs, arrived cold. When we asked for extra condiments like butter, jam, and ketchup, the waitress looked extremely annoyed. I ordered my burger to be cooked medium well, but it was extra well done. The menu description said the burger would come with special sauce. The sauce was not special- hardly there actually, and it did not help that my burger was extremely dry. Frankly, you can get a much better burger at in-n-out and save some money. read more

We were here on a cold day, but the outdoor patio was still really nice. I had the fried chicken m on top of French toast with a sausage gravy ... AMAZING! The sauce has a bit of spice to it and the chicken was super juicy. My family was happy with their orders as well; The steak and eggs came with a nice cut of meat, tender and thick. We were expecting a thin steak but it was very nice. The lettuce wraps were good as well; but nothing spectacular. I think there are better things on the menu to order than the lettuce wraps. All in all - great lunch and lunch we will definitely be back! read more

Really just loved the view and set up of the place. Tables inside with table top fire pits. The vibe was easy and fun very San Diego. Food was sub par, the buns were dry and a choking hazard. However, I don't want this to feel like a full negative review. I want it to be seen there are positives, however it was not the food or the food poisoning that happened hours after having the chicken sandwich. The Mac & cheese was everything you'd hope especially if you add the meat, but the rest of the food fell flat! The slaw on the chicken sandwich lacked flavor and the side salad was seriously criminal to be served. read more
