Best Seasonal Restaurants in Sorrento Valley

We were greeted with a welcome and they remembered from my reservation that this was my wedding anniversary. We choose an indoor seat by the window. The waves looked nice as we could see them roll in. The food was very good. We had the Shrimp Dumplings which was good--sort of like a Chinese potsticker, but soft. I had the Lobster and Shrimp Chowder, excellent. My wife had the Mixed Organic Greens, very good. We shared both. For our main course I had the Seafood Pasta lobster, shrimp, scallop & mahi with smoked tomato sauce, Thai basil & parmesan. I liked it very much. My wife had the Pacific Paella grilled lobster tail, mahi, clams, scallops, shrimp & saffron Arborio rice, very good. The quantity of those dishes was more than what we expected--we could have just ordered one or the other and shared.

Excellent service all the time, and everything tasted great, although it did seem like maybe a little too much salt this time. I like salt, so I didn’t complain, but it was noticeable and we dine here often and this was the first time I experienced that. Just a note for the chef. We love it here and love the roasted salmon main course, pasta with bolognese sauce, and margarita pizza. You’ll like the family outing location with little shops, free parking, and ice cream shop. Fun for all!

Great service from the entire team. Server Scott was great and everyone pitched in to serve us. Great teamwork. Food was delicious.

There were two of us at Jake’s last night for dinner. We started with a couple of appetizers and each of us had a margarita. Well, the appetizers were so fantastic that we just stuck with a variety of appetizers (6 total) all eve. I highly recommend the crab cake and mussels appetizers!! It doesn’t get better than these. Also, I want to mention that our our server was AMAZING. We are both gluten-free and he was so attentive to that requirement that he graciously went to the kitchen several times to ensure that all was GF. He even suggested ways to alter a dish to make it GF and then instructed the kitchen in ways to accommodate our needs. A very enjoyable evening!

Great food. My favorite was the onion dip with the homemade potato chips. Great service too. We had a pleasant evening.
