My Son and I ate here for a late lunch. I had come once before right after they first opened and was underwhelmed. Since then, I have heard and seen some good things. We came for the oysters and to explore different options in Little Italy. Greeting and seating was quick, then it took awhile to see anyone again. They seemed to be short staffed, so we were patient. Cocktails where $15-$18 but were watered down tasting so we only had one. The menu is really exciting to read through, but it is REALLY expensive for what you get. (one small order of roasted corn bowl was $17) it tasted really good, but it was 1 ear of corn. All of the items we order were very small. The pulpo carpaccio was amazing, but again really pricey for the serving size. Our lunch for 2 people, 2 cocktails, 2 dozen oysters (which were really good!) 1 soft shell crab taco, pulpo appetizer, corn appetizer, tuna appetizer was $230. I think that's robbery no matter how good the small bites were. Thats as much as a decent dinner for 2. I would not go back again based on the expense and ALL of San Diego's other amazing food options. Also, I used the restroom while there and it was dirty, trash on the floor, out of paper towels and mosquitos in the toilet.

We sat at an outside table so I can't comment on what it would be like sitting inside. The restaurant wasn't very busy when we were there. We had not realized that the restaurant did not have a liquor license so we were initially disappointed about that. The menu had a good variety of crudo to choose from and our server was helpful in answering our questions. Everything we ordered was very good.

Service was nice. But way overpriced. Drinks were sweet and watery. Food was fine but not at $30 a plate.

Had a nice lunch experience during the Labor Day. Service very good, attentive and friendly. Quality of the seafood was very high, fresh and tasty. 2 notes aside. We got the Crudo platter which basically includes a mix of every raw fish and caviar, including the famous clams Chocolate. Our waiter when we ordered told us that is is a mistake and they have never served them and let us know if we want to go ahead with the order. Surely fair in let us know first, but i find not professional to have the TOP dish misleading the choice of customers. Also generate doubts on the value of the platter. Second one: it was our anniversary. Clearly stated on our Open Table reservation. They didn't pay attention to that and not mentioned. Overall i would come back because i enjoyed the environment and the quality of the seafood, but i would recommend to pay more attention to some details.
