Absolutely incredible lunch experience! We were sat at one of the tables by the window, and we had such a spectacular view of the iconic California coastline, with surfers enjoying the breaks of the Pacific Ocean and plenty of wildlife to be seen. Service was wonderful as well, very attentive but not overbearing. Our cocktails were delicious, as was our starter, the swordfish dip. We loved our entrees as well, the seafood enchilada + lobster chowder. We ended with the lemon cake and salted caramel ice cream. We absolutely loved our meal and are already making plans to go back.
