We did not know this was a restaurant in a hotel lobby. Disappointed in the evening view. They did not have mixed greens so several menu salads were not available. Hubby got blackened Mahi tacos, which he liked. I got the Baja chicken tacos and was not impressed. Oh well! Our last night in Solano Beach was not what we expected. Service was very attentive.

Right on the water — great location. It was a Sunday night, so not busy at all. Our server (Chris) was excellent! Salmon was a little overcooked, but still tasty. Brussels Sprouts were some of the best I've ever had. Overall pleased with our decision to try it out; we'll go back again.

Happened by here driving through San Diego, and found live music, great service and a welcoming atmosphere. We were probably under dressed, but no one called us out on it ?

What a nice surprise! The food was amazing and the service was outstanding. We arrived early and had cocktails by the fire pit with beautiful views of the ocean. The place is a hidden gem! We will definitely be back soon! Great place!

This place is a hidden gem! Took my wife out for a special evening and this place didn't disappoint. Bartender Santana is excellent and was able to make it a super special night by just asking why we had stopped by. Then he proceeded to recommend some fabulous appetizers and we sat out by the fire and had the best evening out we had, in a long time! The food was delicious and the atmosphere was spot on! We will definitely be coming back to this place.

It is worth the drive to eat breakfast. The omelet is large enough to share so you can split the French toast, too. Tje burger was good but the nachos are not.. Good atmosphere with good views. Very relaxing environment. Great service.

Santana, one of the bartenders, completely made our experience. We would honestly come back to visit just from out of town to see him. Amazing service and food recommendations. The view and live music are a huge plus as well!

A little stodgy…leans a bit older. I missed the sunset which is what I was there for, I’m sure it’s great. I’ll go back and try and catch the views.
Great spot, beautiful view with great cocktails and appetizers.Kid-friendliness: Nice outdoor seating makes it family friendly

Arrived late evening exhausted from the day. Mat the bartender/waiter greeted us warmly and made us feel welcome. Enjoyed the food, ambience and his friendly demeanor. And it was awesome to watch LeBron James make history while enjoying time and space at Ocean View Bar & Grill.Vegetarian options: Enjoyed their meatless nachos and cauliflower tacos! Superior eats!

This could be a great place to eat for such a small hotel, but the flies were terrible...I have never had a fly drown in my glass of wine, good thing I saw it before i drank it...flies were landing on our food all the time we ate...won't go back!!

My first time at the place and I loved the food and great fun service. It's a neighborhood vibe with a ton of great dishes and phenomenal Brussels spouts
