              It was a fabulous place to celebrate with our family. A tad pricey, no parking validation ($25) for the lot next door, and food was “okay” but not amazing. Our servers were very nice and the view?? OMG - incredible!! 😎

              Very good meal, the sea bass special was a bit dry/overcooked but my steak was perfect and the service and atmosphere was great. Definitely recommend going!

              A must for anyone in La Jolla. Try the rib and chicken combo.
