    My friends and I love Seneca, we keep going back to this place every time we hang out. The pizzas and pastas are so yummy!! We’ve tried a few things from the menu and there hasn’t been one we didn’t like. They have a good variety of pizzas, pastas and appetizers. They have good mocktails too, the cucumber is my favorite! And I don’t drink alcohol so I haven’t had any cocktails but from what I’ve heard those are good too! The staff has always been super friendly and welcoming and the view is breathtaking! I highly recommend giving this place a try! 🙂

    My husband and I always have dinner here for special occasions and restaurant week. We first ate here in 2022, we fell in love with the food and service, so we started coming back and brought our friends too. We celebrated our anniversary tonight and I ordered my favorite Coquilles St. Jacques, I was disappointed when I received my plate, I had almost half of the portion I used to get, the amount of risotto was so small compared to my previous orders What happened? The food is still great and service was good, jut not happy with the amount of the meal I ordered.

    What an amazing experience! The food was absolutely incredible, our server Nova was fantastic the whole night and the ambience was awesome. We could not recommend this place any more highly. This is a must go if you are a local in San Diego or just visiting! Beef wellington was delicious, the seabass risotto was possibly the best dish we have ever had.

    I went to Alexander's on 30th to celebrate 3 months in my current relationship. The service was great, the food delicious and the ambiance very conducive for a date. The parking was limited but it's SD after all. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    I was with friends celebrating 2 birthdays -- our dinners and service were excellent, although the prices are somewhat expensive and everything is a la carte which can rapidly increase one's bill. However, it was a special event and well worth the splurge. I think our server was Jennifer or Jenny, and she was terrific as were the other wait staff. It was nice that my friends whose birthdays we were celebrating, were each able to select a complimentary dessert for their special day, vs. given a specific dessert for the celebration which is what many restaurants do.
