    Food was pretty good for the most part. Services was about average but the real reason we went there was the ambiance and the scenery which were amazing. I love eating on the water and I’ve lived in San Diego for almost 20 years and seldom do I do it. I feel like it was a bit overpriced but it was definitely a lovely view and a cool vibe. Overall good experience, will probably return.

    The outdoor restaurant is perfect for anytime. You have a view of the city or the San Diego Harbor. It is a beautiful setting. Our dinners were good. It has an interesting and different menu, but everyone loved their meal choice. It is a little loud in the restaurant because the roof covering was solar panels which reverberated the sound back down to the tables. The noise factor was not so bad that it ruined our evening. I think a group of 4 would not experience any problems. We were a group of 8.

    Sorry to say, the two items I ordered were below standard. I’m a long time diner at Cohn restaurants and recently became a member of their new program. The ambiance of Coasterra can not be beat. Unfortunately my ceasar salad was terrible and I’m actually having some stomach issues today? The tortilla soup was a bit boring and lacked flavor, no cheese. There were some good dishes, fried calamari, guacamole, and mahi tacos. Hope the food is more consistent if I do return.

    Nice. Great table & view. Nice server/ team. Ahi tostada and table side guac are great. Love those. Poblano soup was VERY GOOD. Fish tacos always good. Caesar salad had almost no dressing on it. Not looking for it to swim in dressing, but it was a very dry salad kind of hard to eat. Bread pudding, good flavor but over cooked also dry, but ice cream made it good. More like a cake as opposed to bread pudding. Server changed shift towards end of service so person covering took a little longer to clear plates and bring check, but no big deal, not her fault. Obviously you can’t control guests but the girls behind us were definitely filming the PH content for their only fans subscribers…. Influencers in the wild. Overall a nice night.

    Service was very slow. Our server seemed to have forgotten about us. The food and the views were great but portions were small and it was pricey.
