Monica A.

Breakfast date with the hubby. Much needed fresh air with a beautiful view. My eggs were a little overcooked. But overall it was a good experience. Our server was very attentive. #DiningWithTheAndersons #SanDiegoLiving #Blessed

Parking always a challenge here but not impossible. Great food and service. The lobby area is nothing like the outside. Very nice with a beautiful view. I had the omelet with grits and potatoes and my friend loved her fish and chips. Drinks are pretty and strong too. Would go again! All men staff too-interesting ...

I mainly came here to try shrimp and grits. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and it was delicious. My husband had a BLT sandwich and he enjoyed it as well. The restaurant sits on the second floor with a nice view of the ocean. It was nice and quiet on a weekday morning with relaxing atmosphere. Good service.

YUM went here for brunch as a trio of girls enjoying the day in La Jolla and it was perfect - food was tasty and service was fast. we ate outside and had a beautiful view of the ocean! The restaurant is located on the second floor of a building and you need to go upstairs to get to it - we walked right by it at first and almost missed it

Surf and turf Benedict

Cody's has a very beautiful view so you should try to get an outdoor seat. The food itself was okay! Nothing to write home about but definitely good. The food is not cheap either. If you are trying to come here for value this is definitely not it. I got the surf and turf Benedict for about 30 bucks and it was a very very small portion size. This place is definitely for the vibes not the food! The service was definitely great. People were super nice and tentative and made sure we were taken care off. I only recommend of you are looking for a nice view and a good chat.

We came for a brunch on Thursday. I really enjoyed the outside sitting and the friendly server. Food was delicious and we did not wait long to get it, we took dozens of pictures while we were waiting for Food.

Great location, great place. Stopped by for brunch, and they had a great food selection without being overwhelmed. Service was nice and the food came out super quickly. Our table was always being taken care of The food was delicious. We had omelets, which were delicious and their pricing is very reasonable. Their location is perfect for seeing the ocean from afar and we had a great time. If you are in the area, try them out and share your experiences. Happy brunch time! Check the pics!

Lobster Cross Section
Dave Z.

Date of Visit: 12.27.2025 Cuisine Type: American/Seafood Vibe: Nautical themed with amazing view over La Jolla Cost: ~$20-$30 depending on what you get This was a nice little discovery recommended by my parents who sometimes walk around La Jolla (very unexpected surprise). This place was ultra busy but we were fortunate to come during an off peak time (wait was still 35 minutes) What We Ordered: Cappuccino - 4/5 - I prefer cold brew but this was as expected milk and chocolatey with the hint of coffee. Cody's Burgers -4/5 - All the elements of a good burger (i simply don't like most burgers since it's just too messy to manage), the fries are double fried so it remains the nice crispiness despite being round wet ingredients Lobster Roll - 5/5- Massive...you have the tail and claws and a 1/2 a loaf of toasted brioche bread...it is honestly worth the cost Steak and Frites -4/5- Cooked well! The green sauce is creamy but I guess if we are doing sauce I prefer chimichurri French Toast -3/5- Everything is fresh on this plate. Not too sweet but I guess the french toast isn't that crispy but also I personally don't really like horchata egg toast Fish n Chips -5/5- The breading is done right...light enough so it creates crisp and not become its own entity when you take a bite. Also their cole slaw doesn't use typical ranch it feels like greek yogurt or something. I actually really appreciate the nod towards making things actually healthy Atmosphere: Clean, feels relatively private even though we were pretty much next to the main door, open bar concept in the center, and there is a deck further down the restaurant with more open air dining environment Service: Quick and friendly staff Ambiance: Fun, festive with sea decor, and great view of people and the coast Overall Thoughts: Best thing I ate: Lobster Roll Something to improve: Most things are pretty peak already. I think if anything make the french toast crispier and the burger easier to eat heh. See y'all again one day.

Surf and turf Benedict
Sally M.

We've been here for a late brunch a couple times on the weekend and haven't had a wait for a table. Both times we were seated at the same booth. The frose is very good, especially on a warm day. My husband typically gets the lobster roll while I get a benedict. Both entrees are very good and filling. Service has been good as well. The servers are friendly, though there is sometimes a bit of a wait to get drinks and food when they are busy. Overall, a great spot for brunch. A little pricey, but that is expected with the area. Dog friendly as well.

Manda M.

This place was super cute and had such great reviews, so we had to give it a try and it did not disappoint! Right by the beach with such a beautiful La Jolla vibe. The service was great and surprisingly quick, and the food was pretty good too! Definitely a cute spot to add to the brunch list.

Menu
Gabrielle E.

Family suggested this restaurant while we were in town and it did not disappoint. Soon as I saw the blueberry pancakes, I knew that I had to have them. I also went with (crispy) bacon and a side of potatoes that were delicious! The staff were very friendly and attentive. And of course, the views of La Jolla Cove were stunning

Surf and turf Benedict!

I don't usually leave reviews but when I tell you.... The Food was amazing! I got the surf and turf bene. GENEROUS portion. Gabriel was our server and he was outstanding. We also got the crab cakes and they were two big cakes. Pricing was GREAT for the portion. 10/10 view. 10/10 service. 10/10 quality. I definitely 100% recommend!

French toast

This place gets 4 stars- 5 if Jessica is working. We come to La Jolla from L.A. once every two months or so and this restaurant is part of the reason. I usually get the snapper sandwich with the Cajun / blackened spices and Its probably my most favorite fish sandwich I've ever eaten. The staff all look like they were born in the ocean and could surf before they could walk. One thing I did not appreciate- and this is not to get anyone in trouble but it needs to be addressed - as someone who was previously in the food industry for 10 years, the manager should really bring his employees to the side or talk quieter if he has an issue with them, not call them out on the floor within earshot of the entire patio. I'd be pissed if that was me. People can't afford to lose their job and can't say anything, so I'll say it here. Lets remember who actually makes the restaurant what it is. 10/10 WILL be back every time I'm in La Jolla.

Wonderful service all the time! Thanks Joey & Macael afor…read morebeing such an excellent servers for my cousin's wedding party, Oct. 3rd. Duke's La Jolla never fails to disappoint. At this location, they have live music, Tuesdays & Fridays from 3- 6 PM. I've been a fan of their restaurant since 2005 when I first visited their Waikiki location!! From tonight's dinner, I enjoyed the first round of ahi tacos although the second round was a tad too salty. I've indulged in the mahi mahi, mashed potatoes and Korean sticky ribs!!

This was another great rooftop restaurant in La Jolla, overlooking the La Jolla Cove!…read more We lucked into a great seat near the rails...but a bit of problem as it turned out. SO many folks came to take pictures right in front of our table...so it turned out to be a bit of nuisance. In any case, this restaurant was bustling with people...very high in energy! Quite casual, but very nice nevertheless. This restaurant also turned out to specialize in Hawaiian food...something I haven't had since our 2nd honeymoon to Maui decades ago!! We started with Crispy Coconut Shrimp, which was delish! Then shared this huge Rib & Chicken plate and this Vegan Ravioli dish. We were stuffed by the end of it. But then, given that they knew that this was our anniversary trip, the restaurant treated us to this amazing dessert (huge serving of ice cream with fudge etc.etc.)...and WOW! We really appreciated this generosity!! Also enjoyed their Margarita (Boomers, I think?). Service was good, but a tad slow...given how bustling the crowd was. Overall, we had a great time here (minus all the touristy picture-taking in front of us lol!).

If visiting this area again, it will absolutely be on the list. (My table would add that they only had espresso as part of cocktails so drip coffee was the only option, but it was still pleasant).

Honestly, the price was going. The flavor was way better than what I had expected. I subbed the chips for potatoes and asked for a side of the chili Benedict gravy, which was the best decision you ever made the best gravy I've ever. Some kind of chili gravy (not spicy) was the perfect dip for the side roasted potatoes
