Enjoy your favorites daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner and enjoy brunch every Saturday and Sunday. Reservations highly encouraged. Ocean View Terrace seating IS NOT GUARANTEED and will be given to GUESTS PRESENT for their reservation based on what is AVAILABLE AT THE TIME.

Today only sitting customers in the stuffy enclosed dining room, no lovely Ocean Patio as requested or wanted. Food quality good, but food made wrong or oddly. My wife’s veggie omelette filled only with mega BROCCOLI & my berries with our shared fruit/berry plate never brought with berries, server eventually found & reminded. The strawberries in the berry bowl sadly were brought in a fluid sugar sauce, the kind that goes well with waffles or desserts ? Yuck ! Where are the old-fashion slides fresh strawberries? Hard to find our server when problems arose, despite only 4 or so other tables full while there. Hotel experience.

A go-to spot for years. Beautiful views, delicious food and cocktails. A must if you are visiting La Jolla. Rachael is and has been the kindest, most attentive server that makes you feel so amazing and welcome.

I had the La Valencia breakfast, my girlfriend had the Lobster Benedict, and all of the food was outstanding! In addition, it is virtually impossible to beat the ocean views from their patio!

This is a beautiful place and it’s a pity they don’t promote more their lunches. The salmon salad I order was a little to rich on dressing but other than that the Salmon was excellent. They’re not taking advantage of the beautiful space they have on the front side of the street to host more diners!
