    Unfortunately, my experience at La Corriente was not very satisfying. The portion sizes were extremely small. My California taco was served on a very small plate, and my daughter's ceviche portion was even smaller. It was also very spicy, and she couldn't eat it. We asked if they could replace it with a non-spicy version, but they said all their ingredients are already mixed with chili. Instead, they brought a dish mostly filled with onions and just a few pieces of avocado, which was disappointing. The atmosphere was also not as expected. It looks much nicer in photos, but in reality, it's quite ordinary, located right by the street, and noisy. Overall, not a great experience.

    The server was so helpful and I loved the food. Authentic Mexican shrimp and octopus cocktail. Also, the server helped us with ordering off menu items for the kids I.e., quesadillas side of rice and beans. They also have steak tacos. The ambience was relaxing and private for my group of 13 people. We reserved the restaurant weeks in advance and got VIP treatment. They had a long table ready for us on the side of the restaurant. The setting was private as no other groups were near us. One minor thing was that we did not have a heater in our area. All the heaters were in the front of the restaurant.

    Clam Chowder!

    We had Esmeralda Branzino, Clam Chowder and Guacamole. The fish was cooked perfectly and the arugula salad on top of it was delicious. The clam chowder is very good and the bread bowl is fresh and delicious. The Guacamole comes with salsas that are excellent.

    A welcoming set-up... cozy yet not overly crowded.

It's an order at the counter with a small seating area inside and a nice patio outdoors. Purchase & provided a number. Not only do that have their famous lobster rolls, but they also have additional signature sandwiches, specialty soups, salads and home made cole slaw as just one of their side options. Most people here order the classic lobster roll as did I. That said, you can also customize your roll, plus they offer shrimp and crab choices too! Not to long of a wait, but keep in mind ALL orders are made "fresh to order", so if they're busy it can take a little longer. Presentation was nice and sandwiches are served with a slice of fresh lemon that brightens the taste. The highlight was the decadent butter fried roll. It was warm, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. You can taste the butter in each bite. They provide fresh cold water that you can serve yourself which was welcome with the warm weather. Additionally, they have soda and lemonade. It could be considered a bit pricey, but everything I was eating on my San Diego trip near the beach is. Service was friendly and they brought my meal to my table which was nice. Would definitely go again. Note-There are two other locations in the San Diego area. If you have to use the restroom there is not one inside their establishment, it's a few buildings down and they will provide you a key and directions.

I was very pleased on how the steak was juicy and tender ! *Braised Short Rib: 2/5 - Don't get me wrong i love me some good braised short ribs, however, these were very disappointing. Most of the meat was covered by fat, the portion size was insanely small considering its an entree. Not much veggies or sides to compliment this meal very well, definitely need to redo this dish. *Pressed Yellowtail Sushi: 5/5 - Honestly the yellowtail was so fresh ! It had a hint of spiciness but also a hint of sweetness. The sushi was very fresh and almost tasted like a ceviche mix. *Parmesan Truffle Fries: 3/5 - Your average truffle fries. Nothing fancy about them. I really wish they were crispier. The ambiance was very nice and welcoming. You are introduced to basically nice oak wood tables everywhere. The booth we sat in was pretty comfy. The service was exceptional. It is nice to know you are getting some quality dishes, others need some refinement.

Service was friendly from beginning to end. Seated quickly, first seating so everything was perfectly set up and clean. Love the feel of this restaurant, the simplicity reminds me of cafes in France. Oysters were on point and quick, raw scallop makes for a great pic, and crab toast is worth ordering multiples! I skipped the carbs by substituting lettuce for toast. And definitely squeeze the lemon all over your seafood, makes a huge difference. Parking is always "fun" in this area, but if you find one, stick around after and walk around the area. Great view of downtown San Diego across the street.

All the seafood tasted really fresh and the platter was a great variety to try a bunch of things. My favorite was the the ceviche and the swordfish dip. Nothing was overly salty either. Fried rice tasted really decadent but it was yummy. Fries were thinner cut and crispy. The only slight letdown was the octopus. Kind of chewy and a small size for the price. Drinks did take a bit to come out but it was really busy. We were able to get a couple rounds of drinks and they gave us a couple free drinks to celebrate the bachelorette.

Unfortunately, our most recent visit was one of the strangest and most disappointing restaurant experiences we have had in a long time. We brought a guest visiting from out of town and were honestly embarrassed by how poor the experience was from start to finish. The restaurant was only about one quarter full on a weekday evening, yet service was shockingly slow and disorganized. It started with our server fumbling through reservation lists trying to find our name, then acting annoyed when we ordered specific cocktails. At one point, he even asked if we were "old enough to drink," which came off as rude and bizarre. The first round of drinks took around 20 minutes and arrived poorly made. We then waited another 40 minutes just to place entree orders, despite barely seeing our server after appetizers arrived. Ordering a second round somehow went even worse. The server rolled his eyes, made annoyed noises, and acted inconvenienced that we were ordering more drinks at a restaurant charging premium prices. One drink, a dirty martini, took about 30 minutes and arrived with a greasy film on top from bleu cheese olives sitting in it far too long. We asked for a manager, who apologized but then asked whether we wanted sweet or dry vermouth in a dirty martini, which did not inspire much confidence. The remake came back not dirty at all and had to be remade again. After nearly two hours, our entrees finally arrived. The plates were dropped on the table without a word. The chicken and fish were passable, but the sides were awful. Cold, lifeless, and completely forgettable. The broccolini was especially bad. We complained again, and the manager offered to comp the bill. Even then, it took another long wait just to close out. I eventually handed the server $100 cash because we simply wanted to leave and still tip something despite the experience. He then shoved the check open in my face and said, "There's your bill." What made this so disappointing is that we used to love this place. It was somewhere we proudly brought visitors. Instead, we left apologizing to our guest for how uncomfortable and confusing the entire night was. We do not care about free food or comps. We care about receiving a decent dining experience at a restaurant charging $30 cocktails and premium entree prices. Serea has declined dramatically, and management needs to take a hard look at both service standards and overall execution. Do better.

There's a free serving of bread and butter. It's such a good bread roll with nice seasoning of salt and butter to add more flavor. We got crab cake and poke for our appetizers. The crab cake was moist, savory, and tasty. The poke was the fan favorite of the table as the poke was so fresh, paired well with the avocado for added umami. The wonton crisps added a crunch factor and dry texture when mixed with the poke and avocado. I ordered the salmon with a side of broccolini and Chinese sausage. The salmon was exquisite, crunchy, and so much flavor when mixed with the risotto. The broccolini had a great char, soaked up the juices from the Chinese sausage, and tasted so well together. It was so filling! For dessert, we had a key lime pie! It had a great layer of meringue on top. It felt like eating a cloud because of its soft texture. The lime had a semi-sour taste with even sweetness. Great presentation. Overall, I loved dining here and would love to come here again when in San Diego!
