   quite pricey for the quality of the food - which was not abundant as most restaurants offer. the bill included a $5 fee for 'facility'. are restaurants now imitating airlines, ticket companies, and banks?

   Went here on a whim and it was best decision we ever made. The halibut dish was a dream and ahi tuna was well worth it. Austin, our waiter, he was a gem.

   The Fishery is a special place. Food is exceptional, ambiance is superb, and service is phenomenal. Their prices are really high but there’s a lot of value in the preparation, presentation and taste. I have had the nori tacos that were out of this world, and the clam chowder is special. The Caesar salad is deliciously decadent. My only complaint is the 4% surcharge for their extra costs. With a price tag of $78 for ahi or swordfish, it’s hard to believe that a surcharge is needed to keep them in business. That said, it’s not a deal breaker. Have been there twice and will be back.

   I've been to the fishery a few times. This time was a less than great experience. We were offered items that weren't on the menu, including the appetizers, drinks and then main entree (annoying). I Brought a friend from out of town to experience this restaurant as it is one of my favorite places to go to. However, this last time was not pleasurable at all. The Cesar salad tasted like the lettuce wasn't washed properly. It had a grainy like sand tasting to it; swordfish was over cooked, and the gnocchi was a slimy texture, not at all what I was expecting. Needless to say, we got a box for our untouched food and left and went to get burritos.

    Generally food was ok but compared to other seafood restaurants in San Diego, this menu felt a little limited for our preferences. Good quality fish, just not our cup of tea.

    We had a late lunch here at the Fishery, and we were so excited & happy about our meal. We got the sea bass ceviche, albacore tostadas, and catch of the day. Everything was so tasty. We can’t wait to be back!

    Sat at Bar for a delayed V Day dinner. Level of service was unsurpassed. Both bartenders listened to our requests and both nailed what we wanted based on what we advised. In a very genuine moment, after having oysters, sushi and ordering 2 soups we asked about the large swordfish (says it feeds 2). Bartender asked how hungry we were and pivoted to the smaller Pacific Swordfish for us to share. Best one I’ve ever had! TY to both Barkeeps that worked the night if 02/18, our waters were never empty, your attention to us was never to much or too little and your recommendations will have us back… with our families!

    We absolutely enjoyed our entrees but were somewhat disappointed at the presentation and quality of the calamari. The bowl was the size of a small cereal bowl with a cup of sauce in the center and mostly crispy crust debris and very little solid calamari. Were it not for this we would have rated The Fishery 5 stars across the board.

    Been here a few times and like the fish and the selections but to be honest this fishery is way too expensive. The prices are kind of outrageous for some of the main course fishes. So many less expensive fish places around but the place does have good quality fish. It is hard to justify paying $45-$70 for some of the fish entrees but they must be rare hard to get fish I would hope?? So my review would be better if their prices were more competitive as it is getting out of control out there when eating out

    We were there on Valentine’s Day - not a great night to eat out but since we were traveling, we did. The food was great, plenty of options, and the service was also excellent. I recommend The Fishery (unless you don’t like fish!) Also had a good wine list and cocktail options. Wine steward was very helpful.
