   We had such a great time here last night! Kyle was so knowledgeable about the menu and clearly passionate about food! The octopus was amazing and the catches of the day were phenomenal! Will definitely come back to try this constantly rotating menu!

   Was a cool place. Didn’t get to sit through a whole meal, ate a oyster and chipped my tooth. Had to leave. Plus it was extremely hot in there.

   We were so excited to try this place out and requested a corner table. Upon arrival, we mentioned this to the hostess and asked if we could have the open corner table outside that just cleared up. She said sure no problem. Five minutes later as she's trying to seat another party who came after us...they didn't want the table she offered. They then pointed to the corner table and she sat then there. I went to ask and she said oh they had previously requested that table. Um, please don't lie to my face. It's ok if you forgot but don't lie to me when I saw and heard what happened. Also, the food was mediocre at best. Our server was good though. We won't be returning or recommending this place as we received better service at other restaurants in the area.

   We had a great meal. Tatiana was our waitress and she did an exceptional job going out of her way to make it a memorable dinner. My husband and I had the catches of the day ( yellow fin and Oprah) and both were excellent. We were disappointed when the halibut was not available but what we had was great.

    Food and waitress was great. Hostess was extremely unhelpful. Sat our group of 6 kids down and wouldn’t sit the 6 adults down right next to the kids table. Didn’t make sense and the waiters and waitresses kept going up to her asking why and they work there. So some training would definitely help.

    DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. The oysters were probably the worst I have ever eaten in my life. For this place to call themselves an oyster bar is a embarrassment to the oyster population. I had the scallops and halibut as mains which were good at best. I also hit McDonald's afterwards to get food as the portion size is soo small. Also the cheapest bottle of wine on the menu was $66. At the end of this disappointing meal was a tab for $175. This is time and money I will never get back. I almost thought about jumping off a bridge after choosing to eat here and waiting 2 days to get a reservation.

    Great staff and atmosphere. Love the fact they are pet friendly. The food was really good as well. We had oysters,caviar, bone marrow and Albacore and it was all fire. Parking in the area is a little hard to find but there is public parking structure a couple blocks away, the food is definitely worth the walk. I highly recommend this spot for a seafood dinner you can't go wrong

    The seafood and service are excellent. Though, expect to wait a little bit for your order during their busier times in the evenings. The food is worth the wait.

    The ambience and atmosphere was great, and the waiter did an above average job of explaining the menu and what the restaurant has to offer. However, the food was mediocre and the drinks were decent. I would go back, but it wouldn’t be in my top 5 of Little Italy restaurants.

    Restaurant went down hill. Food wasn’t good at all but pricey. Lobster roll was worst than last year. Chef refused to do grilled oysters that I use to order before. Will not be back.

    Reservations made, seated on time. Waited 15 minutes for a server. We had 3 servers within 1.5 hrs we were there. Each provided bad service; we had to ask for drinks, napkins, forks…the bill. Shift change cited. We watched at least 2 other tables give up and leave before a server showed up. Oysters were poorly prepared and tiny. Lobster roll and fries were delivered cold. Same with octopus. Never again.

    We loved our experience at Ironside! The food was great and the ambiance was just what we wanted for our last night in SD! Only taking away a star for the portions. We paid $60+ for the “Big” seafood platter (it says it feeds 1-3) and we’re still hungry at the end. All in all a fabulous place! I definitely would go back.

    It was Gail‘s birthday and we wanted something special so we ordered a whole lobster one for each of us and the sweet potatoes as a side. The waiter knew his wines and gave Gail two to taste before ordering, she was happy with the wine the meal and everything Except the noise level, they moved us out side on the sidewalk and we were able to have a conversation and enjoy her special day.

    Loved the ambiance and vibe. We sat outside because the music was a little too loud inside to have a normal conversation. Fish choices are very limited. Frankly I thought they needed more options for fish selections being that we are coastal. That’s really my only non-satisfying issue. The service and comfort were excellent. A+. To me it’s more of a special occasion type of place and I’ll most likely go elsewhere in the future because of the limited fish selections. But if you’re into just oysters and shrimp and a very retro vibe, it hits the spot.
