Restaurants near Swamis Beach

We had such a great night at Waverly in Cardiff!! The service was amazing and so attentive by the entire staff! I truly can't remember the last time I was at a restaurant with such engaging servers who seemed to really like what they do and it was obvious that they wanted our experience to be wonderful! The food was delectable as always. We had the incomparable Cesar's Salad, Mary's Chicken, Lamb Chops and crispy fries. It's was truly a great evening out!!

I have eaten fish from Indonesia to Maine I have never had fish prepared as perfectly as the barramundi at Herb & Sea!! Flavors perfectly balanced on the palette The smoky flavor of the fish enhanced by the smokiness and zing of the jalapeño yogurt The greens added texture and the chips the ideal crunch. The Stags Leap Chardonnay I had with it added a buttery , herbaceous complexity. And the butterscotch budino? Pure pleasure !!! A Lucious finish to a fantastic repast!! The entire experience was elevated by my server Spencer. Friendly, knowledgeable and polished professional service. He was there when I needed him but never overreacted. His command of the menu was as impressive as the food . I live in Santa Monica I will make Herb & Sea first on my list whenever I am in Encinitas.

I might not have booked a reservation if I had known this place was in a strip mall, but I’m glad I did. The ambience inside was lovely. Our server was great. And the food was truly phenomenal. Try the ceviche and the wines from Valle de Guadalupe. 

Third time at the restaurant was the best: really good oysters, good wine, excellent Chilean seabass( the best I ever had) and great service. Will definitely return when in the area!

Was fantastic my date and I sat on the couches. Friendly staff, fun ambiance, great food and drinks. Would hit it again on a weekend for a DJ set as well.
