Today is Mother's Day, and my husband, one year old, and I had reservations for Mother's Day brunch at 8:45am. Mornings don't always go as planned with toddlers, so we arrived at 9am. The young hostess was very rude and let us know they can't seat us as the next wave of the brunch buffet is starting at 10:30am and that they're setting up for it. I pleaded and asked if we could eat really quickly and be in and out of there in 30 min. They harshly said no and were not understanding at all. I was pretty bummed they couldn't accommodate us, especially on Mother's Day when they could clearly see I was holding my toddler and we just wanted to get him fed. Unfortunately, due to their lack of customer service, we will not be retuning. I guess there's a reason no locals come and only hotel guests eat here. Very different vibe in customer service than the Alila Marea down the street which I would highly recommend instead for better service, views, and food. You guys lost some once-loyal, local customers!

Friday and Saturday nights can be quite busy, but that is to be expected. I love to go here for The Lounge alone, without stopping in Harney's, but it's a great place to go when waiting to be seated at Harney's. They also have their own food access so you could always just order through the speakeasy itself. The drinks here are fantastic! Everything off the menu is delicious but I love that you can request a drink with just offering a specific liquor/flavor palette. The bartenders clearly have amazing talent creating delicious craft cocktails. You won't be disappointed!

If you are looking for a fun little spot with a DJ, lights, and a mix of truly random people, this is it. The drinks are affordable, which already puts it ahead of the curve. The DJ is solid and plays a surprisingly wide range of music that somehow works for everyone in the room. The dance floor is always packed, and that energy feeds into the entire space. What stood out most is that there is no single niche or crowd this bar caters to, which makes it feel welcoming and easy to enjoy. For a small town, seeing it this packed felt like a win. This is the kind of place where you show up for one drink and leave hours later. I will definitely be back the next time I am downtown and want to dance the night away.

The drinks are average and a bit on the pricey side, and the service was friendly, though nothing extraordinary. Overall, not a bad experience at all--definitely a fun little hangout spot!

It's hard being a lobby bar to make sure the waiter sees you, but once they know you're there, the service is fine. It's very relaxing with views overlooking the Carlsbad coastline and whatever event is happening in the outdoor area of the Hyatt. Small tv's, NOT a good place to watch a sport event. The heaters outside are very strong. They have live music on Friday/Saturday in the evening. Food/Drinks They bring you complimentary green olives with a nut. I have had marcona almonds before and this time it was soybeans. The drinks were fine, pretty expensive for a cocktail at $20+. The food is also okay. We had the Local Assorted Cured Meat and it was good! I loved the bread that came with it. The Crispy Spam Musubi was also interesting, it was like a fried rice ball (like arrencini) but with an asian flair. Overall I would not recommend you come here unless you are staying at the hotel, but the views are pretty good.

When you walk into the restaurant, you see all things Japanese, pop culture and drinks/snacks. You can get a canned/bottled drink, or around the corner, you can get a beer on tap or cocktail.

If you get a drink at the bar, you can sit at those tables. They had a big screen with the padre game on, no sound. I love tonkatsu, so I will say yes anytime anyone in San Diego wants to get ramen. I would say Gonzo does the toppings very well. The highlight was the chashu. The broth flavor was great, very deep, but personally I like mine a bit thicker, 8/10. If you like a thinner tonkatsu, this may be your favorite. The noodles were also very firm. When they brought our bowls, they offered a few extra sauces to make it spicier, they aren't just on the table. The staff was all very friendly and provided great service.

It was as if they weren't expecting us. Being its Lent and wanting to remain in observance we were looking forward to having the Baja lobster. Unfortunately we were unaware you had to request this when making a reservation. So it was disappointing to find out we were out of luck. All lobsters were spoken for. At this point we should have gotten up and left. I "settled" for the catch of the day. It was the most flavorless piece of small white fish I think I've ever had. It was chewy and maybe a tad bit overcooked. The tiny garnishes on the side might as well not have been added as they were so tiny. I felt like I was served the last of what was in the refrigerator. Thankfully we ordered two appetizers to share otherwise we would have left hungry. We sat outside which was lovely and much quieter than inside. We were able to enjoy our dinner catching up with friends. The service was very very slow. Although it gave us time to chat, it seemed to us that we were forgotten.

Take care. I will not be back.
