My in-laws took us here when we were visiting. Based on the appearance of the outside and knowing my in-laws' penchant for refusing to spend one penny more than necessary, I expected this restaurant to be a bit of a dive. Instead, it was delightful. Excellent food, interesting choices, beautiful presentation, attentive service and a stunning view! AND reasonable prices! Win, win, win, win, win.

I want to say before I write this review that we and our friends went in fairly late and understood that sometimes that can be hard.The service was slow and the server (which I will not name) needed to clarify our drink orders a few times. Once the drinks came, they were good. The food seemed microwaved. That probably would have been the same whether or not it was late. Neither one of the four of us liked the food. Unfortunately. It was worth a try because of the location which is great. This visit was before the first lockdown.

Great food, cool atmosphere, good prices. They have a nice happy hour upstairs and the beer is ice cold. Bonus is the house salads are delicious if you want to drink and eat healthy!

Whenever I want to treat myself I drive up to Oceanside to Jolly Roger from San Diego. This venue always hits a home run in food quality, location and solid drinks..plus wonderful barkeeps. Great views of the harbor from the bar area. Ambiance looks more New England than California. Plan to spend my birthday there come July. Obviously recommended!

Sitting right on the marina, this restaurant made our trip from LA to San Diego more enjoyable!! The food was delicious and priced about what was expected!! We will try to return another day!

I really enjoyed my burger and lunch at this restaurant. The food was a good quality, the environment was fun, but the view was excellent out over the harbor. The restaurant was a bit chilly and I'd recommend a sweater if it's colder than your comfortable with outside, but otherwise I loved the ocean-themed decor and fun atmosphere. To get to this restaurant you'd have to drive a bit around the harbor, but it's worth the time considering the distinct harbor atmosphere. Bring your family here.

We went there twice to eat since the majority of us liked the place.I would recommend going here for breakfast more than dinner even though the view is lovely at sunset .If you walk around the building to the back it's a nice way of waiting for your food by getting pictures on the dock.

We decided to go here one evening on this side of the harbor where JR is located. I use to come here yrssss ago when they would run the buy one get one free. Their food has always been good in my opinion. This particular night, we sat upstairs in the bar area. They have Incredible Happy hour specials! I'm not joking! Drinks and food for excellent prices with quality and quantity. The views are amazing which adds to the fabulous ambiance of eating by the ocean. The waiter was very prompt and right on cue and super friendly. The food came out pretty quick considering there were a number of tables filled. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves and I know we did too! Looking forward to going back once the weather gets a tad bit nicer so we can really enjoy the sunset and another wonderful meal.

This was one of my favorite meals while in San Diego. The Hawaii Mahi was fantastic and full of flavor. The dish came together with the rice and vegetables. The rest of the group had excellent dishes per their feedback. The drinks and service were on point; Violet the server/bartender provided great service and good input on menu selections. Very reasonably priced.

Not sure what is going on with this place. Went in to get some food to go. Got a chicken spinach salad $16.00. The chicken in the salad was very spongy. Yes, we all know the reasons why this can happen, but why am I paying for a $16.00 salad with spongy chicken. This is unacceptable! I've noticed this before with other chicken salads there. Just because I'm only getting a chicken salad doesn't mean you can throw in some spongy chicken on it. You can do better than that!
