I sat at the bar, bartender Ulises was very nice and attentive. I couldn’t decide on a cocktail so he helped me by making a spin off drink from the menu cause I didn’t want something too sweet or too sour; and it was delicious! I ordered lemon pepper chicken wings and the catch of the day, both delicious! I would definitely recommend this restaurant and we will be back. Thank you!

The setting at Albaca at the Coronado Marriott is so beautiful! You can sit indoor or outside on the patio with wonderful views of downtown and pool area. We had margaritas, guacamole and chips and the quinoa/lentil/chicken salad. All were delicious! A perfect setting to avoids crowds and waits.

We were a party of five and I had requested a patio table because we were there to support the musicians, this was noted in my reservation. Our table was one of the furthest away from the musicians and we couldn't see them because they were beyond the restaurant on a lower level. Two of the guests in my party ordered both soup and entree...the butternut squash soup and the tacos for my friend and the catch of the day for me. Other guests ordered beverages, one wine and one non alcoholic beverage. My soup arrived at the same time as my entree. I was not expecting to have this served this way. I asked the server to please call the waiter as the server said it was up to the waiter. Soon the manager arrived and I explained the situation to her. Additionally, both soups were lukewarm...not hot, not cold, but lukewarm. The manager politely took back my entree, but both my friend and I decided to keep the soups as they were. I would like to add that the food was very good....good flavor for the soup and I enjoyed the catch of the day as well, although I do not know if it was just kept warm once it went back or if I received a new plating, which is what the manager said would happen. Although the wine ordered arrived in a timely manner, the soft drink did not arrive and had to be requested again after that guest's dish had arrived. At the beginning of the meal, I asked for some lemon for my water and that did not arrive until I asked again once my meal had arrived. The manager checked back with us and the waiter explained that he put the food order all in at the same time....I understand that, but it was his job to note that two of us had ordered two parts to our meals. At the end of the evening, we determined that we would return should those musicians play again, but it would be for drinks or something other than a full meal. View, setting were wonderful.

Ate there for dinner. Great atmosphere, great food. But it took them an hour to bring our appetizer out, and another 20 minutes to bring out our entree. We also ate there for breakfast. Breakfast buffet selection is very good. I ordered food from the menu. Service time was much better compared to dinner time.

Our servers were very accommodating, one offered to cut the steak for a resident which was very helpful. Two of our dinner guests were vegetarian and both ordered the veggie burger, it was out of this world! $40 for a prime rib was a bit pricey but delicious! Would definitely come back again and recommend ALBACA to friends!

Dinner was great, service was great, then we ordered after dinner coffee. It was cold, our server made it right but why would a restaurant keep their coffee off a warmer? Our server didn’t know and apologized. I don’t believe it’s our server’s fault.
