    We love this place and come every time we visit San Diego. It’s a great place to eat on the first night of a visit with an amazing view of the city. Book at sunset for the chance to see the city lit up in the golden hour. Even if it’s not sunny, the city view is amazing day or night when the buildings light themselves. Be sure to sit outside. - if it’s cold they have infrared heaters in the ceiling that keep you cozy. The food is amazing - never a bad meal.

    Our waiter, Kyle, was absolutely incredible! We were celebrating my sister’s bachelorette party and he just made it so over the top special. The staff was all so attentive, the food was delicious -especially the table side guacamole! The view was spectacular, and the drinks were soooo tasty!

    Food was really nothing. Special service was just OK very noisy when we came in. They greeted us with who’s the birthday person. We told them and never ever saw any kind of birthday treat.

    Views are what make this place interesting but that’s about it, atmosphere inside is cool but the patio is very sterile. My wife’s cocktails were way to sweet, and both my wife and I found our dinner to be flat or otherwise unappealing. The chilie Colorado was 50/50 chunks of fat and meat which was rather disgusting to bite into an all fat piece, all of which was sitting in a sauce that was mostly oil. Once I realized I was no longer very hungry I couldn’t eat any more, leaving most of it on the plate. Very different from chilie Colorado at a number of local Mexican restaurants in SoCal. Service just didn’t hit the mark, multiple servers coming over to ask us the same question three times, my drink took 20 min to get and I had to ask three different people (it was a beer). Unfortunately won’t be going back

    This was our first time having dinner at Coasterra and we enjoyed the evening. The service was excellent, however, we found entree menu to be a bit limited and pricy. The Cesar Salad was a huge disappointment, however, the table-side guacamole is not to be missed. It was outstanding.

    Excellent service table was perfect and food was delicious. Made reservations and called to say we would be late and there was no problem and did not have to wait when we arrived. Customer service is the best 👌
