    This is our favorite place for a great seafood meal. We took a friend for his birthday. I always get the Alaskan halibut….. my husband always enjoys a skewer of divine seafood. Our friend enjoyed the Ono. The hot out of the oven sourdough rolls are delicious. Ambiance is old but hey the food is why we go!

    Only 5 of 6 of us ended up making it, & had Gracie as our waitress who was excellent. The Restsurant (indoors) was not very busy (it was a Tuesday evening) …. Yet the lights were dimmed twice & we’re not sure why. Once I can understand but the 2nd time we really felt possibly we were being told it was time to go (it was only getting on 7pm) Other than that, the ambience was great~ temperature great. Food great, Altho it was mentioned a couple of times that it does seem more expensive than places we also go to in Carlsbad. 1/2 this group is from Carlsbad and 1/2 Lake San Marcos. Most had desserts too for the first time ever & raved about them. All had wine. Kudos for Gracie putting up with us!
