    Nitro Espresso Martini

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance: 4/5[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service: 4/5 Food: 5/5 Drinks: 4/5 Price: 4/5 Parking: 3/5 Made a reservation and came by for brunch on a Saturday. The parking was not the most ideal, but the fantastic food made up for it easily. Erika was our server, and she was kind and helpful throughout the meal.

    Chicken Paillard
    David G.

    My wife and I both had the Chicken Paillard. It was delicious and so were the vegetables that came with it. The bread that came before dinner was also delicious; a type of corn bread muffin and a soft focaccia. Staff was kind and gave great recommendations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Outside seating had a great view of the marina.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Food was really good and service too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very reasonably priced for ambiance and San Diego.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you are looking for a nicer, affordable and casual date spot with views, this is your place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only downside is we had to pay $10 for parking, but if that doesn't bother you, go check it out! Includes starter bread which was yummy

    Short Rib Stroganoff
    Rick D.

    We arrived for dinner reservations (recommended) and seated promptly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is simple, classy, modern with a quiet, refined atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Given ice water and drinks upon sitting. We ordered dinner and were served in a reasonably expeditious manner. The staff were extremely polite, proficient and meticulous. I enjoyed the staff efficiency, teamwork, and table work. Superb service! Started with Clam Chowder (clams, jalapeño, bacon) THIS is how all clam chowders should be made! Perfect consistency, creamy; not too thick or too watery , loaded with clam bits and clam flavor, bacon to compliment, and jalapeño for a clean spice and not one element overbearing, all the flavor blended perfectly, impressive. The Shrimp cocktail: shrimp cooked perfectly; it's done right, you get the sweet, succulent, shrimp meat with sour lemon and spicy/sweet cocktail sauce and it's music in your mouth. I ordered Short Rib Stroganoff for my main dish, if they would've asked me to pay double for this I would've happily, as I haven't found better in San Diego. The Cassarecce noodles are perfect al dente, curled into itself and wavy and with channels to grab sauce and cream, the beef melts in your mouth with juicy flavor. The mushrooms and onions popped with fresh flavor. I had a side of asparagus, I'm still thinking of it because the preparation was immaculate, no stringy fiber I've come to expect, the stem was as soft as the head, the spears were prepped and steamed consistent top to bottom! Great attention to detail all around. Standing ovation to the wait staff, prep cooks and chefs. Bravo!

    We went to this place for dinner, and it's such a hidden jam in San Diego! Way in Coronado further down the island, [[HIGHLIGHT]]unexpectedly good restaurant with amazing views and fabulous ambience, makes you feel like you're really out of San Diego.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You stepped into another world. The menu is a bit limited, though, I wish they had more options, but whatever we had was overall good. Service was slow, but waiters were extremely kind and accommodating, and made us feel good even though the food was slow. We've had salad, short rib and pesto pasta. Overall would come back for brunch !

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Breakfast spot tucked in a pretty resort at the bottom of Coronado.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will preface THIS PLACE IS EXPENSIVE... for continental breakfast vibes. A fruit plate is $23 .... This place had a long line so go early to snag a table on a weekend. I will say, for it being basic breakfast, they do it well. The breakfast potato's were perfectly crispy and soft in the inside, perfect amount of salt. I still think about it .... Overall it was yummy but not worth the price

    What is supposed to be an 8 ounces NY Steak for $45.
    Gary H.

    I will get to the point. I felt that Crown Landing was a disappointment and just average and I will not return today here again. From the very beginning, the hostess made a comment "we have been waiting for you" when we arrived. We were 5 minutes early so I didn't quite understand the comment. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were sat down right at the front where every person walked by so the ambience was missing, especially for such a pricey meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] From the beginning, it went down hill. It took so much time for us to get a server that the hostess actually came over and asked us for our drink order to help out. It wasn't that busy so I was surprise. We placed our drink orders and again, they took a long time and my wife and I didn't get our pre dinner cocktails until our meal was served. We order 3 NY steaks and they were to be 8 ounces. We also ordered two pasta dishes and checked fingers for the little one, clam chowder, shrimp cocktail, Brie apps. For the most part, the meal was good. The clam chowder was delicious and chock full of clams and the Brie and shrimp were tasty. The bread they served was good as well. We did have to ask for water a couple of times which was irritating. The pasta dishes were ok... the bolognese had a nice flavor but the linguine with seafood lacked one important ingredient, seafood. For $28 that was surprising. The sauce was bland at best. Now the steaks. We ordered three of them and they were cooked the way we asked. However, all three of us noticed a strange gassy/ profane like flavor on them. They were still good but something was off. And what was supposed to be 8 ounces was 4-5 at best. And lastly, the Baine of any chef is having to cook chicken fingers or nuggets I am sure... and it looked like it. It literally looked like three or four of them were thrown on a plate with a handful of fries. $12?? Yikes. One thing I don't mind is paying for a quality meal and paying big. What I don't like is that this place was presented as a high end restaurant and it was average as best, with a $500 price tag with tip. Did the food taste good? Yes for the most part. Did I feel I got what I paid for? No. I would say that Crown Landing is mismanaged, needs service training and their impression of their food is much higher than my perception. Food: 3 stars Service: 3 stars [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cleanliness: 5 stars[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Atmosphere: 3 stars Price to value: 2 stars I won't be returning and I can't recommend this place unless you are in a pinch and there is nothing else. I felt ripped off when I left and I even waited a few hours to write this to see if my feelings changed. Not worth what I paid.

    Pistachio Crème Brûlée
    Paula S.

    Had a nice birthday dinner for my husband at Crown Landing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beautiful setting both inside and outside dining.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Love the delicious clam chowder with jalapeño and bacon starter, the fresh large shrimp & crabmeat with creamy lobster sauce and the large glazed salmon on bed of saffron rice and garnishments. Great drinks. Ended great dinner with Pistachio Crème Brûlée Desert. Wait staff was amazing!!!

    Chicken plate

    This is our second time here. This time we came to celebrate my passing my board exam! Chucky was our server and he was very kind and helpful. The manager was very attentive, my daughter cried in the beginning of our dinner because she wanted water and she came to see if she was okay. It was very sweet. She also offered to get us a thing for her. We felt accommodated and cared for during our visit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was very quiet and intimate, it was a Monday night.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Besides the services the food was 10/10 last time we came the food was exceptional. Both dishes were great! My daughter loved the veal and pork bolognese. And I got the short rib stroganoff. Chefs kiss!

    Best restaurant ever and we loved meeting Chef Ana! The gelato was amazing and each dish was expertly prepared!

    French Onion soup
    Debby B.

    We had a lovely time at this restaurant for dinner and breakfast. I will start with the service. Erika did a fantastic job in all areas. She knew her menu and was able to answer all questions for both dinner and breakfast. All of the people at this hotel (Lowes Coronado) were really good and made us feel special. We had scallops, cauliflower puree and asparagus for our main dinner. The scallops were cooked just a little over but were still tasty. The French onion soup was one of the best I have had. The broth was so rich and had a deep flavor. It was not too salty and had a nice balance of onions, bread and cheese. For breakfast we had the bagel, cream cheese and smoked salmon (two times). The bagels were lightly toasted. The cream cheese had bits of green onion that were perfect. The salmon was plentiful, fresh and tender. It was served with capers, sliced red tomatoes, red onion and lettuce. The only comment I have is that the first time there was plenty if cream cheese and the second time there was not enough. Not sure if it makes a difference but the second time was room service and the first time was in the restaurant. Drinks were good. Great wine choice too.

    Updating my previous review because this place has consistently exceeded our expectations. We spent Thanksgiving dinner here last year and most recently I took my team building here for brunch. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everyone was raving about the food, the excellent service, and the coastal view![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We lived in the neighborhood next door and this has been our neighborhood grill and bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You feel like you're on vacation![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Is this the review where I finally lose all credibility? Nah, Yelp reviewers don't have credibility…read moreto begin with. Normally, I just judge the food. Like, when I go to a popular bar, I don't care about the popularity or the vibes. If the food doesn't meet my higher standards, it can't get five stars. Conversely, the customer service could be super rude, but I might give it five stars as long as I love the food. Lol. Which makes this review out of character for me. Or I'm just being a hypocrite. Even when I gave Brigantine five stars, I love their mixed drinks and a lot of their seafood. I'd have no issues with writing another five star review of the food at the Brigantine. Those lobster quesadillas are immaculate. This place on the other hand...... Okay no, that makes it sound bad. It's definitely not bad. The mango habanero wings here had a nice crisp and flavor. The pizza definitely had a cheap crust and cheap ingredients, but the final product still had a decent flavor. Like, it's not going to win any awards, but it'll still taste like heaven when you're consuming alcohol. This is one of the most popular bars in the area. I've floated or driven past it quite a few times already since I currently live in IB, and I've never seen it not slammed. I finally decided to walk in here at like 1400, and the bar was still packed. However, the clientele is mostly locals. And the bar and clientele is of a variety that will affect your mileage. Specifically, there is a ton of active duty or retired U.S. Navy, there is Navy memorabilia all over the walls, and it probably leans conservative pretty hard. So you might feel like an outsider unless you fit one of those categories. That might've been me if I wasn't also in the Navy. Lol The dude on my right immediately told me that the owner is retired Navy. And the somewhat drunk dude on my left started chatting also. And I somehow almost immediately participated in getting an orange Jaeger bomb (which I suggested since the orange Jaeger was directly in my line of sight.) Uuuhh, all that just to say, I mostly use Yelp to look for amazing food. If you're just looking for Michelin star food, I don't think there's anything particularly ground-breaking here. However, the locals do claim that this is one of the most popular bars in San Diego. There are reasons for that, whatever those reasons are, because it definitely doesn't have anything to do with the Yelp average.

You'll find seating at the bar, or there is a comfy lounge area with cozy chairs / couches and plenty of TV's to enjoy local San Diego sports, as well as a great view of the city skyline while you're seated outside by the fire pit. The menu has plenty of food and drink options for both dinner and happy hour. While the HH menu may be a bit limited, you're still sure to find something to enjoy - A Burger, Hummus & Pita, or Fries, as well as a few more options. The dinner menu is where it's at - Shareable's, Flatbreads, Salads, Steaks, Chicken Sammies, Desserts and a Kid's menu for those traveling with little ones. I opted for local Craft Beer to drink {a good IPA, of course}, while The Hubs opted for the delicious Old Fashioned. For dinner on our first night, we decided to share the Cay's Double Cheeseburger - topped with Smoked Bacon, Cheddar, Lettuce, Tomato and a House-Made Dressing {w/ Raw Onions on the side for me} and a side of Parmesan & Garlic Truffle Fries. This is the perfect combo and satisfied every craving. Whether we were at the bar for dinner or simply drinks, we were tended to by Elijah, who was absolutely wonderful. He was beyond friendly, always had a smile on his face and engaged patrons in the most mindful manner. When he overheard us mentioning our birthday, he caught us on our way out to dinner and told us to stop by the bar when we returned - We swung by for a nightcap and he surprised us with a complimentary dessert - A warm Brownie with a Bourbon Caramel Glaze and Vanilla Ice Cream. What an amazing treat and the most perfect way to end our birthday evening! Thank you Elijah for helping to make our birthday so fantastic!

The space is an outdoor restaurant where you go to a walk-up counter to order your tacos and beer. Your drink is given to you upon payment and the wait is generally 5-10 minutes for food, depending on the time and day. The downstairs area is family friendly with cornholes, rows of picnic tables lined up and a fire-pit. Though it's near the beach, the ocean views are obstructed by a building. The upstairs, however, has a better view of the ocean. It is more of a countertop seating area, lined up with stools and it gives you a peek of the ocean. Now let's talk food, because lets' be real, that is why you're reading this review. The Fish Taco, Surf and Turf Taco and Queso Birria are our favorite go to. That first crispy bite of the Fish taco thats covered in chipotle and lime aioli is delightful. The Surf and Turf has the perfect balance of shrimp and beef. The Queso Birria is a decent size that leaves you nice and full and wanting more just because it's that tasty. They also offer a variety beers, including some ciders. They even offer a few cocktails, like a Paloma. The service is a bit inconsistent. Servers bring out your food and that's the last you'll see of them. Since it's a counter service type of spot, I guess it is to be expected. Aside from that, it's a great spot to grab a quick taco and refreshing adult beverage while taking in the ocean breeze.
