    Amazing views of the bay and waterfront skyline. Surprisingly delectable seafood entrees as commented among my group of 5 with different seafood orders. But more surprising was the remarkably inexpensive price points for such quality dishes. Will definitely revisit on every trip to San Diego.

    Absolutely loved the experience, my girlfriend had told me about the restaurant. She loves the early 90s so the vibes of the restaurant was amazing for her, I loved the decor as well as the general ambiance. The vodka pasta was so good, I got the 40oz porterhouse. The outside was grilled perfectly as well as the medium on the inside. The drinks were so good from the Cabernet my girlfriend had to the Gin & Tonic I had were both wonderfully made. 10/10, will absolutely be suggesting this place to every couple we know as THE date night spot in San Diego.

    The service, ambiance, and quality is fantastic. I enjoy the "old school" vibe and separate bar, entertainment, to include a dance floor is fantastic.
