Mary BMay 31, 2014Baja Shrimp Toast is a lot like spicy avocado bruschetta. It's hearty but not heavy. Great plate for two to share. A respectable portion of charred beauties under those cukes and radishes. Get it.
Marc SchneebergerOctober 16, 2017Go for the small dishes. Have 5 of them instead of a main course. The uni rissotto is excellent and so the foue gras cookies and steak tartare. Cocktails are great also, wines could be better. Enjoy!
AngelaDecember 11, 2014The deviled eggs are made up of this marvelous egg white meringue concoction. You just have to try it. Everything we ate was amazing - yellowtail tostadas, linguine with clams and uni butter.
eric bornemannAugust 14, 2020Really wanted to like it. Great service and atmosphere, but the food is just off... it’s just missing something that would make everything click and be the great restaurant you want.
Paige CAugust 14, 2015The food was sensational. I enjoyed the deviled eggs, buttermilk biscuit and pasta dishes. Unfortunately many of the dishes had nuts in them and could not be altered. I wish I could have tried more!
Brett VenkerOctober 7, 2015Definitely one of the best restaurants I've been to in SD. The lamb was great and so was the chicken. Had a few phenomenal apps as well. Check it out for a celebration dinner or something special
Mureena WellsFebruary 3, 2015We told our server that we would like to meet Chef Blais. Chef was so gracious, came out to our table to introduce himself, then took us back to kitchen to take photo. Food was delicious.
Christopher GallagaAugust 2, 2017Deftly walks the line between classic deliciousness & overworked modernist. Excellent meals with charming service. They tell you that outside is more laid back but are forgetting the overflights.- Elise KatherineDecember 2, 2016Everything is incredible; from the food to the service. Highlights were the squid link linguini and the deviled eggs. You can't go wrong here.
Menu here changes daily. Every meal here is a new and fresh experience and always very delicious. I go here every year after SDCC and highly recommended it.
Jack PersingerMarch 8, 2014Alexis our server was great. ..sitting upstairs is no fun. ...the small plates were amazing across the board...room is beautiful. ...kitchen is amazing....don't sit upstairs....and Jen is amazing.
Lindsay BrookeApril 29, 2017Wow!!! What an amazing restaurant. The food is beyond delicious with so many depths of flavor. Highly recommend the hand rolls, the duck, and all of the pastas.
AmateurConciergeJuly 12, 2016Great California fare with a southern twang. Was fine on the novel take on deviled eggs but loved the seafood tostada and the beef tartare toast.- Serious EatsMarch 8, 2014Go here for inventive plates (large and small) by Richard Blais, paired with excellent wines and imaginative cocktails.
San Diego ReaderSeptember 19, 2014"From there, crab linguini in sea-urchin sauce; it’s the sort of thing culinary dreams are made of." -Brandon Hernandez, SD Reader
Perriann HodgesDecember 24, 2014Fancy! Reservations are a must. Youdle for dessert! Oh and if you want the best double double you have ever had... Ask! It's not on the menu!
Kevin WilsonAugust 29, 2017We just asked the waitress to bring us tapas style starters as our meal. Awesome - all of it!!!
Martin MartinMarch 9, 2015One of the most amazing dinners I've ever had. Creativity abounds in ingredients, preparation and presentation.
MuddyAugust 21, 2014Run don't walk to this new exciting restaurant opened by one of the winners of Top Chef, Richard Blais. I wish I could narrow it down, but everything is great!- Sara TaylorOctober 12, 2017Enjoyed all the dishes we had, especially the garden & grains. Extensive wine list and good cocktails. However, it can get very loud and the tables are quite close together.
George FahourisApril 20, 2014Sitting at the bar tables that overlook Restuarant was really nice. Great atmosphere. Octopus dish was very good, as well as the pasta dish.
💕Linds💕October 1, 2018Amazing! One of the better dinners I've had out. The tuna wellington was delicious. Try the deviled eggs!
Janelle HuntApril 18, 2014Chef was in the house tonight! Give your compliments to the chef could end in a private kitchen tour by Robert himself
MonтιəlApril 24, 2015Great place, nice atmosphere! We enjoyed every option we ordered and service was outstanding. Highly recommended in San Diego
MarinaMarch 11, 2019I love prawns, but these grossed me out for some reason. Please order the buttermilk biscuit and the steak—- does not disappoint!
Vincent QuanDecember 5, 2018Cool environment and vibe. I would order small plates and the bites. I liked the biscuit, and chestnut agnolotti.The yodel was too sweet for my liking.
Matt A.November 6, 2021If you have a party of 7 or more you have to get a pre-selected menu but that’s not at all. Incredible food and worth the price and hype.
Morgan ConnacherApril 26, 2014Fantastic vibe and spectacular playlist! Try the bone marrow and oysters, yellowtail, and meatball with rhubarb marinara.
- Amy ValentNovember 21, 2014The yellowtail is excellent. Very good quality fish and the combination of the crisp, vegetables and the fish in one bite is fantastic
Hal MackinsNovember 3, 2015The moonfish entree was fantastic: hearty, filling, but not excessive. I also really liked the halibut ceviche.- sue qMay 17, 2015Seafood. Tuna. Yodel. Halibut. Vegetable sides especially the carrots. Toast -morels.
Jessica DelaneyFebruary 15, 2016Ambiance, quail egg, shirt rib, appetizers, service, very happy overall
Jung-Ah YumMarch 31, 2014All drinks ordered in our group were delish. Loved the spritz and giggles! Very refreshing!
- Brooke BonwellMay 1, 2016There small plates are perfect for sharing and trying a lot of the items on the menu
Felipe GrimaldoJanuary 2, 2016Good is excellent...hard to pick a favorite dish but you should get the deviled eggs- If you are going to blow your diet, go for the yodel. Totally worth the extra treadmill time.
Order the biscuit, carne cruda asada, baja yellowtail, and the yodel. In the Ivy is a great cocktail
- Ask for a table facing the open kitchen! Calvin is an excellent server.
