I considered getting a second just to take back home. (I regret not doing that.) When I went it was pretty quiet and chill with fast service, but id also love to be here and experience a busy Friday night! Going through other reviews it seems super lively and fun, but if you also happen to be here on Tuesday's happy hour, expect no less than great service, drinks and food. Get. Their. Pizza. Get it. Wont regret it.

It was my first time coming here! The food was really good. Definitely shareable which is really…read morenice so you can try a little bit of everything. The pizza was really good, I like that the crust and the dough was thick and soft. I also really liked that it was made from a wood fire pizza oven. (I could tell since they are my favorite). The pear burrata was refreshing and light. Definitely would get that again, the only thing I would change on that dish would be to make the pears a little bit softer. The service was great. She would check up on us and she brought what we needed on time. Didn't have a problem. Very nice and helpful. The restaurant/bar was SUPER cute!! Really liked the vibe and how they decorated the place. Loved the roof top (that's where I ate) and you can see the ocean from there. Nice view from up there. They also have music playing and sometimes it can be loud. Parking can be very hard to find so prepare to park far and walk or uber/lyft.

Oceana Coastal Kitchen is a great spot at the Catamaran Hotel. We had a staycation there and…read morereceived a dining credit, so we enjoyed breakfast here two mornings in a row. We sat next to the fish tank, which we're big fans of, and had a delicious eggs Benedict with mimosas. The food and service were both very good. We also came here for dinner and ordered the seafood tower. It was pretty expensive and probably not something I would have ordered without the dining credit, but it was delicious and made for a fun date night.

We stayed at the Catamaran resort for a week back in early to mid August and dined at Oceana on…read moremultiple occasions given its convenient location. Overall the experience was okay. The outdoor seating offers great views of the bay, though it could get quite hot and humid outside during deep summer. If you are someone who likes al fresco dining but cannot tolerate certain levels of discomfort while eating, I would recommend sitting outside for breakfast or after the sun has mostly gone down. Their breakfast offerings are delicious and generous. My kids loved their pancakes and french toast. The kids meal pancakes comes with 2 massive pancakes which is arguably enough food for a grown adult. The breakfast sandwich is truly a sight to behold, but only order it if the itinerary for the rest of your day involves louging by the beach/pool and/or napping lol... The dinner however, I would probably pass on. We had dinner there on a Monday, where they advertised a prix fix meal that consisted of a martini, salad, cacio e pepe pasta and dessert brownie, at a price that seemed like a great deal. My husband got that Monday special while my kids and I ordered from the regular dinner menu. My and my kids' food were tasty but pricey for what they were. The cacio e pepe pasta that came with my husband's meal, however, was mediocre at best. He painted the experience as essentially eating butter pasta at a fancy restaurant. In fact the butter pasta we make at home for our kids has more cheese than what he ate. The service was very slow, not sure if it was because of poor planning but our server had to serve tables both indoors and outdoors, meaning he often overlooked one area or the other. We waited for more than 30min after we were done with our entrees before we could flag down our server to notify him that we had not been served the brownie that was part of my husband's meal. It took around 20 more minutes before my kids started to complain and my husband decided we had spent enough time waiting. We asked for the check, still no brownie in sight, then quickly paid and left. Only as we were walking out of the door did they FINALLY bring out that piece of brownie but it was too late... There are plenty of other good unique restaurants for dinner nearby, don't waste your dinner time here. Just stick to breakfast and it's all good

As I understand it, Moray's is the outside/patio dining portion, while Oceana is the indoor fine-dining situation. I believe they pretty much have very similar menus, with Oceana having some additional high-end offerings. Came out to Moray's to visit my cousin who was in town for work. Since my cousin now has her most adorable infant, she wanted to keep it simple and dine at the hotel restaurant, which was fine by me. While I waited for them to come down from their room, I got us a patio table and ordered a delicious $10 draft. Mixed drinks were all hovering around $19 each. The server was friendly, welcoming, and helpful, which I greatly appreciated. I went with the reasonably priced Steak Frites, $36, which was to stated to come with Muenster cheese and caramelized onions on top, and served with a side chimichurri. While the steak was wonderfully cooked to a solid med. rare as requested, it seemingly had very little flavor. Perhaps had it not been covered with a wealth of some DEEPLY caramelized onions and an abundance of Muenster cheese, I might have been able to taste the seasonings and/or the beef. While I love some deeply caramelized onions on a salt-laden burger, the extent to which these were caramelized left them seeming soggy and too sweet for the steak pairing. Add in the several slices of melted Muenster cheese on top, and flavourwise I could hardly tell I was eating a steak. Ultimately, the abundance of toppings overwhelmed the steak. The accompanying chimichurri was also a little strange. While I appreciate that it was diced and not blended, it was very heavy on the oil, while very light on the herbs. The frites were nicely salted and good on their own, however a decent amount became soggy from being under the steak. The burger on the other hand looked excellent. My cousin devoured his in what seemed like a split second. I could have went for the burger, however at $27 I perceived the $36 steak frites to be of a better value. Again, shout out to our server. They were on-point! Thanks Moray's!

Four stars for Jrdn. The view is superb, and the scallops were the highlight of our dinner. When I…read moreasked the executive chef about them, he took the time to tell me the whole story behind the dish. After we finished, he came back to ask what I thought. I loved them. The halibut was excellent, too. The burger was the miss. It was dry and tasted a little off. Our server was pleasant, but disappeared for long stretches, so we waited for just about everything. The rest of the serving team clearly knew how to get things done. Between the view, the scallops, the halibut, and the chef's personal attention, I'd go back. I'd just hope for more consistent service next time

She was extremely attentive and noticed when people arrived to the table late, she brought out menus and waters for them right away. Very impressive considering how busy it was. I noticed how observant she was when our alcohol ran out and she always had a new one on standby. I was so impressed by the shrimp ceviche, it was something new I tried. I loved the fresh flavors of the lime and onion. It was a good portion, light and refreshing. I would definitely order it again!

It's also super close to the beach, which makes it an easy place to stop before or after spending some time by the water. I almost always get the Firebird. The chicken is consistently juicy, crispy, flavorful, and has a really good amount of heat. It's definitely my go-to here. I also love that they have such a big selection of condiments and sauces, so you can try different combinations with your meal. The open patio is another big plus and fits the casual PB vibe really well. The employees have also always been nice and helpful whenever I've visited. The only area I think could use a little improvement is the cocktails. The ones I've tried have been okay, but I'd love a little more flavor and a stronger pour, especially compared to how bold the food is.

Solid place for some well fried chicken I have been here…read moremany times since it is near my place and I gotta say it is a solid choice and one of my favorite chicken places in San Diego. The Le Cluck and the jidori chicken nuggets have to be my favorite items. The Le Cluck is a beautiful marriage between French onion soup and a fried chicken sandwich. I honestly love this thing so much and hope it isn't just a seasonal item, but becomes a permanent on the menu. The Jidori Nuggets are always very well done and the sauces here are bangin and they have a good variety of sauces. The sandwiches on the other hand are a bit inconvenient with seasoning and fry. I've gotten the Coop and other multiple times and it seems to be different based on who is in the kitchen. I went for the Phily Chicken Cheesesteak and it was underseasoned and terrible. I wouldn't recommend it but I've had friends say it was good - but again the spot is inconsistent. I really appreciate the sauces and the different kinds of food they have here because there seems to be someone for everyone here - no matter how picky you are. Don't skip the nuggets

The most charming brunch spot in PB!…read more Entering Fig Tree Cafe feels like going into a hidden oasis. The decor and layout is a bit funky, a lot beachy, and super San Diegan. There's a bunch of seating options in the front and back- countless tables and quirky booths. We tried out their Shakshuka, Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, and a Hibiscus Lemonade to wash it all down. Everything was so yummy and affordable! The portions were a good size and we all left feeling satisfied. Their menu has a pretty good spread of brunch items, so we will be back to explore and peruse the rest of it!

I ordered this burrito to go after I saw this description...Scrambled Eggs, Fajita Veggies, Roasted Onion, Breakfast Potatoes, Cheddar Cheese, Guacamole, Cilantro Aioli and Roasted Salsa. It is called, "South La Jolla Burrito". It goes for $18 which may be pricey, but I honestly think it's worth the money. It was so delicious and even had a bit of leftovers which was still good. It's a nice restaurant, but I didn't stay to dine in. The service was very good. Friendly and had my order made quickly. My burrito was still hot by the time I got home which was nice. I definitely recommend checking out this restaurant if you have not yet. I will be back for this burrito again!
