George's Ocean TerraceGeorge's Ocean terrace neverGeorge's Ocean terrace never fails to be outstanding. They are so accommodating, even to seating near a heater if requested. The food is wonderful. The drinks are creative and excellent. The views are amazing and sunset is an experience . This is by far and away the best place for the price in La Jolla.6/10/2013 12:00:00 AMbeyond the seaMy dining experience at George's ocean terrace was unbelievable. the food was rather good, the drinks were great, and the quality of the service was very much to my liking.
Having a table in a more or less secluded corner overlooking the ocean made me feel like I had traveled to another country temporarily as if I had magically gone vacation instantly.
watching the sun set over a wonderful dinner and wine with my companion made for an unforgettable dining experience that I will have a hard time trying to top anytime soon.
I HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone looking for a romantic dinner with a breathtaking view (we had to keep reminding ourselves it was, in fact real and right in front of us) and excellent, friendly service6/9/2013 12:00:00 AM40th celebrationWe had a table for 10, 4 kids. The staff was very kind and accommodating. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. The view was unbeatable. We had a tremendous experience and would definitely return if we have the chance.6/9/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful service and food!I always expect the best from the Ocean Terrace and always receive the best. Thanks George's At the Cove for always having a wonderful array of food choices that are so suitable for the ocean-view setting. This was my third time back at this restaurant and the second time ordering the grilled salmon (although I was a little bummed not being able to order my pesto sauce/grilled salmon this time but I guess the sauces/misc. ingredients change seasonally?) which was superb! Unfortunately came towards the end of the night when the calamari appetizer was sold out so opted for the asian chicken wings instead. Those were delicious!6/7/2013 12:00:00 AMThe view of the water gaveThe view of the water gave the restaurant a very romantic feel!

George's Terrace will always be the top choice in La Jolla!6/2/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat View & Food!Enjoyed lunch with visiting friends and they were very impressed with the food and view of the water. A wonderful place to bring out of town visitors for a great lunch or dinner.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat service, the waitressGreat service, the waitress accommodated the needs of our little nephew eating out with us. View is great and hard to get seating on top floor so we were glad to be able to get reservation with few days notice and treat our family to the best spot in La Jolla. Try the sticky pudding dessert, it's not to be missed!5/31/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat way to kick off our weekend!Even with our two kids under 6, service was incredible! I was blown away with how attentive! The view was breath taking and food was yummy!

View of bay waters is breath taking.5/28/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat spot! A must in La JollaThis place has it all! Great food, great service and an unbeatable view! The drink menu is pretty killer too. This came recommended by a friend and I will be sure to recommend it on!5/28/2013 12:00:00 AMIf the breeze blows out it is greatGeorge's is certainly reliably good for food. The service was completely impersonal but adequate. The view is down right amazing. But, sometimes the smell coming off of the rocks below can ruin a meal. We were lucky this week and the breeze was outward bound. We could not have had a prettier day. Ambience, well, the view makes up for being crowded and being able to hear your neighbor's conversation. We had a lovely lunch. It was a long cry from an amazing lunch.5/27/2013 12:00:00 AMFavorite SD RestaurantIn love with this place. We went with high expectations and were still blown away! The drinks were great, service was phenomenal (shout-out to Keli - fantastic server), and the food was so fresh and delicious. We were so impressed! Not to mention the view, which is obviously key. I will go back every time I'm in the city and recommend to everyone I know.5/26/2013 12:00:00 AM2nd time & Wonderful like the firstA must place for lunch anytime you visit San Diego!5/25/2013 12:00:00 AMQuite EnjoyableAgain, our part of four had a wonderful experience at George's. My wife and I brought some friends. It was their first time. Meals, service, and the weather were great. Our friends said they would return on their next trip to the area. We will too!5/25/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways Great!The food and service during the day is always teriffic.
It is a rooftop restaurant with a great view of the water.
We always stop here when in La Jolla and have never been disappointed.5/24/2013 12:00:00 AMOcean view!We had, probably, the best table in the Restaurant.
Waiter was very good, I was a waiter myself, so I know
what I am saying.
Food was Sui Generis.5/21/2013 12:00:00 AMFabulous view and scrumptious foodThere is no better view than the deck, overlooking the ocean! The food is scrumptious and beautifully presented, reasonably priced for the quality. I'd go back, anytime.
Time to get the main course was an hour from the time it was ordered.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMIt's our 3rd time to enjoy George'sWhen we are in this part of the country we always try to make time to stop at George's. I like to leave my husband at the bar and run in the nearby shops. We are both happy!5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMOcean view dining at its best!A group of 6 of us had lunch on the outside deck at George's and had a great time. The food and service was good and reasonably priced. Our server was attentive and informed. The panoramic view of the ocean was fabulous! Our only complaint was when a couple vacated their seats at the crowded bar and one of the ladies in our group sat down only to have the bar tender tell her she couldn't sit there because he had promised it to some guy. The guy had found another seat down the bar already, so he came back to tell her she could sit there after all....she chose to stand as she felt that was extremely rude to tell a lady to get up to give the seat to a young man. I admit, it was a bit tacky.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMThe view isn't all to go for!From the time we arrived at George's we were treated as if we were regulars. We had a 2PM reservation on the roof Ocean Terrace but were asked if we would rather be seated earlier on the openair patio. We decided to sit early and the view is just as fantastic as upstairs. The food was light and fresh. The entire experience was outstanding. We had the fish and shrimp tacos... unbelievable!5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMI always include George'sI always include George's Ocean Terrace when planning for visitors.

Service was also great and made such great recommendations!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMDelicious, Fabulous George'sI just love this place! The food is healthy with a wide variety of choices for us who are gluten-free, dairy-free. The service is outstanding, and I always bring my out-of-town guests here for lunch to wow them with the view and great food. Using Open Table to book, it just couldn't be easier, and their valet parking is the bomb. I always feel I am treated as a special guest (among thousands of other fans) and you will be too. There is frankly no other choice in La Jolla that comes close to George's for me. It has been, and remains, my favorite spot to go for a guaranteed great dining experience!5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMLunch by the OceanGeorges is a great place to go for lunch and get away from the stress of your day. Great location in beautiful La Jolla.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMwonderful place for specialwonderful place for special occasions. food was very good and staff were friendly, real people. important to make a reservation to get a good seat.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMAnother Great Dining ExperienceGeorge's Terrace is a perfect setting for business or pleasure. Food and service is always very good. Scenery is un-parallel. The outdoor atmosphere is relaxing while still very conducive to good conversation. The menu selection is just right as are wine and drink options. Tasty appetizers and the can't miss soup. Only one small issue on this visit; the Tombo came in two thin pieces versus the nice thick steak, done med-rare. Otherwise, a solid outing for our table of 11. The servers took great care of us. Look forward to my next visit to George's!5/7/2013 12:00:00 AMAs always, outstanding foodAs always, outstanding food and service.

The octopus appetizer was TO DIE FOR. It literally melted in my mouth. Same with the sticky toffee dessert. The view was obviously amazing, service great, and the wine was superb. A thousand thumbs up for one of my favorite restaurants!4/29/2013 12:00:00 AMHad a wonderful dinner. LovedHad a wonderful dinner. Loved the atmosphere.

Interesting menu, and changing specials keeps it that way.4/14/2013 12:00:00 AMCame with my boyfriend andCame with my boyfriend and it was a great experience. The service was consistently pleasant and the food was delicious. I actually liked my boyfriend's plate better...it was slow cooked ribs, the special for the day.

We were able to substitute shrimp for clams on our dinner selection without problem, but for a slight upcharge.
Great view of the Pacific. Would definietly consider returning there for a future meal.4/12/2013 12:00:00 AMTop DrawerOur service and food was great the noise level was a little to high but probably expected. I've dined there over the years and it's always been a good experience.4/10/2013 12:00:00 AMFun food, fabulous viewGeorge's Ocean Terrace is top notch for the food, the view, and the service. I had the shrimp ceviche - flavors were spot on with a fresh, crisp, tanginess. My only offer of improvement was with the dessert, a fruit cobbler. It could have been outstanding with cinnamon and nutmeg in the cobbler batter, it was a bit flat. Should have gone with the chocolate choice :)4/10/2013 12:00:00 AM
