    Great quality food Great price Great ambiance and view Pliney on tap Fish tacos and bowl are a must

    Meagan J.

    The smash burger at High Marea was delicious and I would definitely order it an again. The burger comes with bacon jam, cheddar cheese, chipotle aioli, and a toasted brioche bun, which creates a really rich, savory flavor combination which was also had some spice! The flavors are elevated so it's not the average burger. You can get it as a single or double, I opted for a single patty burger and it was filling. The ambiance is nice. There is an option to sit inside or outside. Outside was packed with no seating so I sat inside. The service was great! Loved the staff.

    Steak and chimichurri shrimp taco
    Lindsay N.

    Got two tacos, 1 steak and 1 shrimp. Steak was tender and juicy shrimp was well cooked both were on tortillas that were very good. Both very flavorful. Small though. I was pretty hungry so needed a dessert after but two tacos and an lmnt sparkling canned drink was $25. No sides/just à la carte.

    Absolutely LOVED this place! I can't say enough good things about the shrimp skewers. So flavorful and the sauces were amazing. The chicken wings were also spectacular. Everything tasted so fresh and healthy. I can't wait to go back to try other menu items!

    Fried fish tacos

    As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with smiling faces and a welcoming atmosphere. Knowing they cook with clean ingredients, was a huge reason we made the trek from Vista. We had the fried fish tacos (pictured), tallow fries and smoked arrachera steak tacos. Everything tasted amazing. From the homemade tortillas, to the seasoning on the tender, juicy steak and the flavorful fresh fish taco. Left us wanting more for sure! To top it off, they have a great ocean view from the patio seating. Definitely will be back for sure!

    I really enjoyed this spot. It gives chill take out vibes but the menu is super elevated. I came because it's seed oil free and they have complimentary bone broth shots. The beers on tap are elite (Pliny the elder). The servers made rounds which was not expected given it's an order at the counter place. The value is outstanding here. I'll definitely come back.

    Great beach spot with a relaxed atmosphere and beautiful views. The ingredients were fresh, and there were plenty of delicious options to choose from. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared. Definitely a great place to grab a meal while enjoying the beach!

    DELICIOUS. One of our fav places in sd. Food is great quality, service is fast and they serve a little cup of bone broth with every purchase. This kind of quality is rare to find and high marea does it right!! Keep up the good work

    Surf and turf fries
    Nick L.

    Had to do another review on the surf and turf fries. Holy shit. Best surfnturf fries in SD. I had it 3 days in a row. I still crave it

    really enjoyed everything about the lunch I had here. The way they prepare the food with no seed oils using tallow super fresh and ingredients. That's really just one part of it super super friendly and incredibly accommodating to my children very attentive. We were at the bird sanctuary not too far down the street. I'm very happy we found this. I can't wait to come back.

The place is super casual, mostly open air so bring a sweater because it can get chilly. Five or six seats at the bar, which were full on this visit. If you sit at the bar, you can actually order from the server from your seat which I do like. otherwise stand in line ...order and pay and they give you a number... food, comes out very quickly. On this visit, I just had a fish taco. They give you a choice of grilled or fried I chose grilled. My son got poke nachos and a fried fish, taco and guacamole and chips. I shared his guac and chips and took a bite or two of his pokey nachos. The food is very consistent fresh and delicious Happy hour drinks are all beer and wine. They have a very streamlined selection. There are five beers I believe and as far as wine, there's one sauv Blanc one Chardonnay, one rosé, and one red. Nothing fancy very basic but palatable wines.

He began to put together two empty tables together for us but the female cashier returned and told him not to. Meanwhile a few other couples came in after us and sat at the large tables of four. After waiting 20 minutes we finally got a table. Ordering our food at the counter is a bit different but I guess people are use to it. Price is reasonable.

We split the the Heart of Palm Ceviche! So amazing and it was big with a beautiful presentation. Just delicious. I could have eaten that alone with no other items. It was a vegan Ceviche and the fish was not missed. My friends ordered really cool cocktails and raved about them. My one friend said that this is the only place she can get this particular cocktail and that she comes here just for it. I ordered 2 tacos (Mr. Asparagus and the Baja fish taco). Both delicious and they came with housemade potato chips (which I thought was weird until I tasted them). I was so full but I couldn't not eat the chips because they were so good. One friend ordered the Quesabirria and she didn't love it. It was very strange as it was wrapped in fried cheese. They also ordered the other tacos and loved them.

The restaurant is really loud when crowded and you can only talk to the person right next to you, but that worked ok in a group of 7 anyway--we just had multiple mini conversations. If you're planning a large group gathering, you might have to play musical chairs to catch up with everyone, unless everyone has naturally loud voices that carry. Most of the people in our group ordered beers, but I ordered a nonalcoholic prickly pear hibiscus ginger beer which was ok--pretty subtle, but it quenches the thirst all the same. I ordered the Farmer's burger (black bean) with added avocado and a side salad which comes with a lemon vinaigrette. I had to eat it with a knife and fork after removing the top bun. Very tasty. My daughter ordered crispy shrimp tacos which she really enjoyed. Most people ordered the backyard burger which looked pretty good--choice of fries or side salad. Freddy our server was friendly and helpful. Overall a good dining experience!
