    Love the preferential treatment for being a single diner. Couples and more have to go on a wait list, singles are found a table immediately. A novel approach. Loved the ceviche.

    We had a great breakfast at Moby Dick. We had the Denver and Santa Barbara omelet and they were both delicious. There are great views from every table.

    Had the Red Tsunami and a cup of lobster bisque and it was delicious! My other party members had the Rockerfeller Steak and are raving about it!

    The yellowtail catch of the day was not very good. The clam chowder was excellent. Pro Tip: try and stick to the menu, you should be fine.

    Don't believe the negative comments, if you're looking for a peaceful view to soothe your mood pick here and eat the swordfish steak or lobster.

    Clam chowder was superb albeit too thick and salty. Everything else is too mediocre to mention for the price point. Wish we would have dined elsewhere.

    Worst service ever. I have lived here 30 years and always go there for the view. No more. This place is a HUGE tourist trap. Don't go!

    Great views, but there's better seafood in SB. It's more expensive than its worth. Go for breakfast.

    Pão francês fresco. O prato que escolhemos foi bem caro pelo tamanho da porção que recebemos. A bebida da criança é o mesmo preço do adulto, mesmo vindo menos. decoração interessante e a vista bonita.
