    Awesome new restaurant in the new office complex at Torrey Hills. Beautiful setting and good food at reasonable prices.

    So delicious! Employees are always kind and helpful. The shrimp salad is a favorite, today I added steak for some extra protein 10/10

    This place is hard to find, but if you do find it get the smokey chipotle chicken bowl, it's excellent!

    Clean restaurant, great menu selection and the food is very tasty. It gets busy during lunch rush but it's worth the wait! Great service!

    What happened to this location :(…read more I can't see myself returning after today's visit. I stopped by to get a quick Cesar salad (minus chicken) as I was so hungry and nearby Del Mar. The place was empty but alot of to go orders being prepped. A guy helped me and I asked for all kale for my base. The portion seemed small so I asked him for more base kale and he gave me side eye. Keep in mind this is for their BASE (not toppings or premium toppings) - just the base (you'll see portion at end). I subbed tomato for cabbage and then he added the small scoops of parm and cheese crisps. Then tossed with Cesar dressing (it didn't look familiar this time around). The portion was so small that he even looked at it when ringing it up and I was waiting for him to say 'you want me to add more base' but instead shrugged and said 'it's b/c you omitted chicken'. Thanks guy. I could only shake my head when I opened the container. It wasn't even half full. And for $11. I could have gone to Jimbos for a bigger portion at their self serve salad. Or gone to Urbane Cafe (my fave place right now) for ahi kale salad for $13.95. The salad tasted bitter today (like radicchio for some reason) and the dressing didn't taste like their familiar Cesar. I'm kicking myself for not getting salad from another place.

The dressing was a bit spicier than we anticipated but it was very tasty. All the ingredients were fresh and all went very well together. Possibly a new salad to add to my usual orders here. Service was standard. We did pre-order on the app and when we got there, they did expedite ours a little, which was appreciated. Since they were busy the tables and chairs weren't cleaned but it wasn't a very big deal. Overall a decent experience at this location.

    Loved this place! Very chill taco shop with variety & delicious food. We got our food pretty quick…read more& it was exactly as the menu described. We got the surf and turf burrito & a 3 taco plate that included rice and beans. The pepper on the side was surprisingly delicious. The sauces provided were just enough spice level wise. Also want to shoutout the workers there, we came in with a big group & one of us were dairy free & they accidentally put cheese in one of our burritos. The workers were very quick to remake and even reimbursed for all the troubles. So thank you so much for remedying the situation. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area!

    Since we were in San Diego, I wanted some really great fish tacos. I found this place after our…read morehike at Torrey Pines State Reserve. The parking is plentiful around lunch time. We were able to secure a table even though it was busy. We ordered chips & guacamole, shrimp taco, and dorado fish taco. There was a slight mishap but we ended up getting the surf and turf taco for free. Everything was a generous portion. They may look small in the picture but big in person. Kind serving and if you want more water you should have to go to the counter. Prices were fine. -chips and guacamole 5 - huge enough to share between 3-4 people. Fresh guacamole and I liked that none of the chips were soggy. -shrimp taco 5 - I like that these shrimp were like prawn size. They were very juicy. -dorado fish taco 5 - this was my favorite. The fish was beer battered and crispy. They went well with the chipotle aioli. -surf and turf taco 5 - this was surprisingly good. I liked the sauce and filling. Not too salty.

    What a super chill venue!…read more Went here with my sister's friends for Sunday brunch this past weekend. The venue is pretty stellar! They're dog friendly, have large grassy areas and corn hole; it's such a vibe. It's all about the outside dining area and that awesome wall of jasmine flowers. It was breezy and the scent traveled making the experience super unique. We were famished and everything on the menu looked next level good. Our waitress Cynthia answered all our annoying questions. I got the lavender lemonade to start and it hit the spot. The lavender was perfect, not too perfumy (not a word apparently but it is today) but enough to say ok, there's lavender in there and I like it. It was refreshing. My main meal was the chilaquiles which had a nice kick to it so beware if you can't tolerate any spicy flavors. It was more of a soup in presentation but I love sauce and may have licked the bowl because I'm classy. We also desperately wanted the side of potatoes because we kept seeing it and all of us ended up getting an order and did not regret it. The potatoes include the skin, salted and super crunchy. It's like fry well fries and I'm all about it. We will be back!!!
