    Beautiful place
    Jan K.

    We added our name to the list... it was a busy morning..... they said 25 minutes... our table was ready in 10.... Jacob was our server.... He was very patient with all of us female's.... all wanting this and that... Jacob was friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu as well as the area... we kept him hopping and he did a great job of keeping up... They're pretty strict with breakfast and lunch menu times... We all ordered different kinds of food... I haven't been disappointed yet... We parked in the parking structure... a few blocks from the beach...

    The overall experience was disappointing due to a clear lack of quality control and execution. The fried chicken tenders were unusually dark (overcooking or poor oil management). The flavor and texture reflected that as well. The Hawaiian kimchi fried rice (?)wasn't actually fried. The kimchi tasted raw and barely warmed, mixed into hot rice without proper cooking. It felt unfinished and difficult to eat--I only had a couple of bites before stopping. What made this more concerning was noticing that another table also left more than half of their fried rice untouched, suggesting this wasn't an isolated issue. Overall, the food felt overthought yet under-executed. Some dishes lacked a clear identity and came across as confused rather than intentional. If the kitchen isn't confident in executing certain dishes, it would be better to remove them from the menu entirely. Restaurants should serve food that guests can reasonably enjoy and finish. Creativity is welcome, but it needs to be supported by clarity, consistency, and proper execution--unfortunately, that balance was missing here.

    Spicy BLT

    High/ low is a solid brunch spot with spectacular views. I've tried a few things on the menu, but the spicy BLT is my favorite. I love coming here and sitting outside on nice days. Service is a bit slow, but other than that it's great!

    Decent joint. Service was fantastic. I had the Hash (was not what I was used to, but was decent), and my wife had a pancakes and sausage. I thought her sausage was delish. We both enjoyed a couple cocktails. Not bad. Love that they are dog friendly. Overall was an average experience. Nothing really "Wowed" us.

    Vanilla latte

    This place was great! The location and setting is perfect being right across the beach. The vanilla latte was good. I also got the breakfast burrito (I ate it before any pictures) and it was great! The service was friendly and had good recommendations.

    Outside patio

    Had a lovely lunch here at High/Low. They have a great outside patio which has nice ocean views from across the street.. The menu has a variation of offerings leaning towards brunch/lunch. I had the grilled cheese & tomato soup & my friend had a yummy egg scramble dish. Friendly & attentive servers. Good spot to bring out of towners

    Lattes

    Great breakfast location near the ocean. Make reservations to avoid long wait. You can enjoy a latte while you wait which is delicious. Spent Christmas morning here studying enjoying my coffee which was refreshing. The location is right accross the pier and decor is hip concrete modern inside and oceaside beach wood outside. The staff is always welcoming and very attentive. Would recommend this place.

    Lovely place to enjoy a drink and appetizers on the patio. Especially liked the garlic fries topped with shaved Parmesan. Waiters are friendly and efficient. Been here three times in a week and will be our go-to while on vacation. Steps from the beach with a great view.

    I've been trying this business out since I moved here and they still don't disappoint... my group loved the food. Eggs were cooked perfect, waffles were delicious, tater tots are a little oily so can't eat too many of them but I love the crunch, the clamp chowder was good- not too creamy but make sure you love bacon because its a bit overwhelming in flavor, and the Bloody Marry was great. The view of the ocean is pretty much blocked by the plants in front of the outside dining area, I wish it was more open for the view but you can venture out after dining for an amazing walk down to the beach or at the Pier. The wait was about 20 minuets on Sunday, they didnt take reservations. Enjoy!

    Rockfish Ceviche
    Michelle S.

    I've been coming to high/low since it's opening around 5 years ago. The food (classic Southern California/American fare) is consistently delicious. The cocktails are fresh and inventive. When I am wanting a coffee + pastry and a walk on the beach, I love to get an Americano and their almond croissant and stroll the pier. When I want to grab lunch with a friend or bring a guest from out of town to a restaurant with an ocean view, high/low is at the top of my list! I came today with a friend and we enjoyed lunch. She had the rockfish ceviche and I had the chicken and avocado sando. And we both chose a little sparkling wine to go with. The sando was great, with the bread being perfectly buttered and lightly toasted. I was grateful to the server for the suggestion of swapping out the coleslaw for sweet potato fries. My friend said the ceviche, which is served with plantain chips was so good, she ended up scooping up the juice with a spoon! Recieved excellent service- chill, knowledgable about the menu and friendly. The price for a sit down meal is somewhat expensive, but worth it. Will happily pay for scrumptious food and an oceanfront view. High/Low is located in front of and attached to the Mission Pacific Hotel. Parking can be a challenge, but there is a Pay lot nearby and metered street parking. Looking forward to going back soon!

    Great atmosphere, excellent service. Ethan was so sweet and nice! Food is delicious. Will come back

    Ultimate Oside Breakfast Burrito
    Michelle R.

    We were staying at the hotel here & wanted breakfast that was close . We shared the Ultimate Oside Breakfast Burrito . This was really good . Big enough to share . It had bacon , eggs, tots, cheese , salsa verde which was really yummy - picked jalapeños. We also had a piece of banana bread that was thick & yummy . The views are amazing of the ocean . We ate outside . The waitress was helpful & nice . They are only open until 7pm . If you are in the area I recommend it . They have Coke products

You can see and taste the creativity and care in each dish they make. I also (personally) love that they don't use mushrooms in all of their dishes! The restaurant is a pretty good size so it has a good amount of seating with some outdoor. The parking lot's a little unique and a bit small though so might be tough to get a spot on some nights. The vibes are cool. The staff is cool. It's not as close to home as we'd like but definitely worth the drive!

    We came here for a special occasion with a friend visiting from out of state, so we were really…read moreexcited. The food was genuinely amazing and the mocktail menu is creative. Unfortunately the service was concerning if it's the way the Plot trains its servers. We were seated outside, directly across from another couple that was well dressed and looked great! Our server checked on them three times, having lengthy back and forth. He did not check on us at all after dropping off our drinks. A food runner ended up bussing our table. I asked for a straw after he brought our drinks, he never brought it or apologized or acknowledged us again at all. my boyfriend finally walked inside to grab one himself. Again meanwhile he was directly next to us chatting with the other couple. When we brought up the lack of service, he said he had a lot of tables who "didn't look like they wanted to talk" and that they were two servers short. It was a Sunday night. It was not busy. He then offered us a free dessert. We said no thanks, we just needed a box and the check. He came back with a cake anyway, and we had to ask again for the box and the check. Smh... We were dressed casually, so tbh maybe Kellen felt like that determined how much attention we were worth. It came across as classist. I can't say what he was thinking, but I can say what our experience was versus the service the table right next to us had. We still tipped in full because the kitchen earned it. I wish there were a way to send that tip straight to the kitchen and support staff. Good food can't carry a night when the front of house makes you feel invisible.
