    Amazing restaurant to watch the token San Diego sunset. Make a reservation as far as you can in advance, and request a table close to the viewing window, well worth it. BBQ ribs are a great appetizer!

    Awesome place! People who work here are great! Seafood cocktail, fish, steak, and burgers... All delicious! Used to work across the street, ate there all the time. Way better than the place next door.

    Food was amazing! Calamari was perfect and they used big pieces and so were the tacos. The gnocchi was divine.

    Great food, bar, service and an unbeatable ocean view. After lunch, dinner or Sunday brunch you can enjoy a stroll down the beach. -Our Fallbrook Branch Manager

    Get the crab cake!! It’s full of crab meat and not all the extra fillers. Really friendly staff too.

    A very shellfish-oriented restaurant. Almost every seafood entree was shellfish, and all of them at the bar menu. But you can order the regular menu at the bar if you want.

    After dinner, kick your shoes off and walk on the beach; they have spot lights that illuminate the surf rolling in... Awesome finish to the evening.

    Service never disappoints, but I'm not a fan of the remodel. I miss the old Jake's ... dark woods, more privacy, intimate and romantic. Food remains top-notch.

    The bar is packed at Happy Hour, get there earlier, leave your credit card with the bartender and they'll close you out when your table is ready.

    OMG ocean front dining at its best! Did not want to come back to the 28 degree weather on the East Coast!

    The best part of this restaurant is the view and the orange blossom margaritas. The food is overpriced... I guess your paying for location. Hula pie is a big hunk of ice cream w a grainy bottom crust.

    Hula pie. The legend is true. The best part is the Oreo crust on the bottom. Amazing.

    The combination of roasted garlic soup and roasted turkey sand which = super filling and definitely worth the $15 restaurant week deal!

    This place is really good but parking is a nightmare. If you can get here through means other than driving yourself, do so!
