    There is no salt or pepper on the tables (a growing trend depending on the level of pretentiousness) so ask if you need it.

    I really like the Presidio IPA. Larger size is better deal.

    When alone or just a couple, go straight to the bar and sit down rather than waiting. Only downside is you're facing away from the ocean :(

    This place houses my favorite beer in the world. The "Riptide Red Ale" -- never fails when you're looking for something refreshing.

    Could have been nice, had a server ever showed up to take our order. Even after reminding the bar staff, no one came after 20 minutes. Shame too, I was looking forward to it.

    Too expensive and nothing exciting on the menu. We did leave before trying anything... But that's because the menu was mundane at best.

    Don't get the beer, it is not what craft beer is. Go for the booze and food, forgive the slow service.

    Prime rib French Dip was dry and over cooked. Crab eggs benedict was cold. Service was ok. Eh- go for the drinks.

    Waited 20 minutes and no waiter. Got up to leave and noticed the host (feminine black guy) laughing.
