Though service was okay, the foods were not good as expected so the value was not totally worth it. My wife was so upset that the salad which came with Thanksgiving menu was 50% less and smaller than other guests' received!!!!!! Horrible.

We ordered from the Thanksgiving menu and from the regular menu. In the kitchen they were not coordinated. One appetizer came and the second appetizer came 10 minutes later. One dinner came and the other dinner came 15 minutes later and the turkey was dry. After that our waiter was totally missing from the dining area for 20 minutes. We were so late in trying to finish the meal that I had to take the dessert that came with my meal home and our free parking ran out and we had to pay an extra $10.

Overall this was an extremely nice, swanky restaurant located right off the dock with a boats and the Coronado Bridge in the background. Parking was validated at the Hyatt and plenty of parking was available in the Hyatt garage on our Thanksgiving visit. Plan to spend at least $100 per person (or more). The restaurant had their regular menu but we ventured with their special three course Holiday meal. First course started with a nice and fresh salad with the pomegranates adding a nice zing; although, I would (and did) seasoned to taste with salt and pepper. The salad dressing was lightly dressed. Main course was a choice between Turkey and Ham, or a combo, with a nice side choices of mashed, stuffing, and carrots. I found the Turkey extremely dry and of need of dressing that was scarcely provide but I did ask for some more that was rationed out accordingly. Dessert was a mini pumpkin pie that was fine, I've probably had better over the years. I had two beers that were light and refreshing, which were from brands I had not tried before and would drink again; plenty of excellent cocktail options with a special offered that had tastes of Thanksgiving in its descriptive preparation. The service was impeccable and wait staff attentive throughout the meal.

Took my husband here for his birthday. Felt neglected from our server. Our drink was wrong, not a lot of food for how much we paid and I was never offered dessert at the end, was just brought the check and that was it. Overall it wasn’t enjoyable. It was a beautiful place but we both left pretty let down by the experience.

Met with friends here for dinner and it did not disappoint. The staff were friendly and very attentive and checked with the kitchen about certain questions we had on the menu regarding some fish we were not familiar with. The crab cakes were very tasty and meaty. Tried the New Zealand Sea Bream for the first time and it was delicious! We all had different desserts, and all were just outstanding! This is a lively place as it sits in front of the marina so lots of people watching along with a beautiful view. I would definitely recommend!

We had a wonderful dinner at sunset on the patio! We love Chilean Sea Bass and this was one of the best we ever had. They had a lady singing lovely songs which provided a nice ambiance. Not loud or obtrusive. The service was top notch as well. When we go back to San Diego, there will be another meal at Sallys!
