    Waited about 10-15 min for our reserved table and it was a bar stool, facing the ocean. Seems like a great spot for a group to come relax and hang with good sunset views. Mediocre food/service.

    Felt like the menu was lacking. What looked like the best option (pork katsu) was only served on the weekends. The rolls all tasted like they were missing an ingredient or sauce.

    Very trendy Sushi restaurant right on the beach. If you go on a Friday night/weekend/event night expect loud bass coming from the open air club near by. Service was great and the food was excellent! Bit of an inflated cost due to location, but overall very worth it. Bring a jacket at night if it's not peak summer! The wind right off the ocean gets chilly.

    Only 3 of 6 could be on time (flight delayed by 1.5 hours) and they generously held our reservation. Fun place, everyone had a good time (22yrs to 63yrs!). Food was good and came quickly. Good music, nice view, sat around fire pit. First night of vacation was great!

    This isn’t the first time I’ve dined here and this is certainly not the best service I’ve received. Food was delicious, as always. Our server wasn’t attentive to us, at all. We were sat close to the bar, so I can understand he might have been busy, but one of my classifications of good service is that my server fills my drink before it even gets empty. He passed by our table, looked at our table plenty of times and did not refill any of your drinks, and we just had water.

    There are few places with a view like this. We love Cannonball because it's in a fun spot (above Belmont Park) so it's a lively scene, and the restaurant is 100% open air. There is a covered area near the bar, and the rest of the place has umbrellas. BUT be warned...we went at 4:30 on a Saturday in October and most of the tables were in the sun and it was HOT. The food is really good, and would be considered pricey for out-of-towners who aren't used to coastal CA prices, but they are typical for this area now. The service was spotty (even though there were a lot of servers working). And parking can be an issue if you go on the weekend. We took a Lyft to avoid the hassle. If you are looking for a dinner experience that's more of an event, this is a good option. You can do a beach or boardwalk walk after dinner, or check out Belmont Park. It's a really fun area, especially when the weather is nice.

    Took forever to get our order in, and longer to get our food. The Tuna was not of very good quality and the rice was undercooked. The cost of everything was way too much considering the quality of the experience. The only saving grace was the view.

    The view and rooftop vibe was amazing but we waited for a long time for our food to arrive and it was just mediocre but 2 people in our group of six loved their meal. Our waitress was outstanding. If I go back I will maybe just try something else and hope the food comes a little earlier.

    The food at this establishment is good, and the views are very beautiful. However, the service is extremely slow and you can expect to be here for three hours at least. The treatment we received from the manager was inhumane and simply appalling… I would not recommend this location to anyone.

    Overall, incredible experience! We showed up early to our reservation and were seated almost immediately. Service could use some work (or it might be a Cali attitude thing) but most people we interacted with had a very "uppity" attitude. We were visiting Mission Beach for the first time and when asked, our server did not have any positive recommendations on what to do around the area. Thanks to TikTok, we were able to find lots to do / explore for a couple hours. What was more shocking was - She barely even liked anything on the menu when we asked for recommendations on that either. Again, thanks to social media - we were able to pick out the most popular items. Thankfully, the food and view made up for the overall mediocre service. Funny enough, I asked another server for hot sauce or sriracha when our food came out and she gave me the most confused reaction as if she has never heard of hot sauce before. She responded with, "whats that?" I said, "sriracha or Tabasco, chili oil?". I did not think it was an unheard of request. She then proceeded to bring over some sort of sweet / slightly spicy sauce...it was.. interesting. Again.. service fail. The ceviche was very generous - almost a full meal on it's own. Definitely worth sharing that and getting it! Very underrated in my opinion. 8/10. The cannonball burrito was alright; more so just for photos. I'd rate it a 5/10. But, the saving grace was the Enfuego roll and salmon tacos. Both were to die for! I would go back for those 2 items specifically! 10/10 Overall, very cool place to chill and enjoy the views. I might give them another chance since the food was great & hope that we get better service next time.
