Had a great experience here while visiting from out of town! Michael was our server and was so friendly! The food was delicious! The oysters were from Baja and so tasty. The open windows and view of the beach was also great. Highly recommend this place for good food and a beach vibe.

We had a good experience at Water Bar overall. The soup was great and full of flavor, and the poke bowl was tasty, though the portion was a bit small. Service was okay and the atmosphere was pleasant. The highlight for us was definitely the view — beautiful and relaxing, making the visit enjoyable despite a few minor downsides.

View is amazing at sunset!! Food was great! Loved the sweet chili wings! Gets a little cold after sunset if you’re seated by the windows but they closed them for us no problem. It’s a great spot to enjoy the view, a drink and people watch

We stopped by Waterbar on Christmas Eve for a drink before dinner. We stay down in PB for the holidays every year, and have seen this place since it first opened. Last year around this time we peeked our head in to see the space, but didn’t stay.

Located upstairs, the venue is large and well-lit, with windows overlooking Pacific Beach and the boardwalk. When we arrived, we were greeted by a local patron at the bar. He noticed my 49ers hat and made a joke about keeping me and the owner away from each other, because he is also a Niners fan. Immediately loved the vibes.

There were a decent amount of people there for it being Christmas Eve, but it was still pretty open. We were seated at a long high-top table for our group of 7, with one kid. The restaurant was all decorated for the holidays, and they had a pop-up situation with some fun themed drinks and even a giant inflatable igloo for people to play in!

We ordered a variety of beverages, many from the “Tinsel & Tides” menu, including the Candied Cranberry Punch, Maple Smoked Old Fashioned, and Spiced Peartini. All of which were fun, and received positive feedback on taste.

In addition to the holiday drinks, they have quite an extensive list of around 14 cocktails, and 2 mocktails. The cocktail prices range from $15 – $18, and even have fun little photos on the menu next to the description. They have a section of 6 specialty margaritas, over a dozen canned beverage options, and over 2 dozen beverages on draft. You can find an entire page of wine options. From bubbles, to rosé, to whites and reds. You can buy it by the glass or the bottle.

Beyond drinks, there’s a nice looking food menu. Mostly seafood and Asian inspired, the menu featured items such as crispy calamari, crab Rangoon dip, ahi tuna poke, ceviche, sashimi, and various sushi rolls. There are several soup and salad options, as well as a dozen or so entree options, and a half dozen side dishes such as fries, coleslaw, veggies, and mac & cheese.

There’s also a brunch menu, which is available Saturday & Sunday from 9am – 2pm, and includes some boozy drink options like a Bloody Mary and bottomless mimosas. There are around 8 entree options, and another 8 or so brunch themed sides.

While we didn’t get to try the food this time around, the menu looked good enough that we are planning to come back for a legit meal. There is an “Oyster and Martini Wednesday” from 3pm to close, where oysters are 50% off, and martinis are $10. We happened to be there on a Wednesday, however the deal wasn’t applicable due to the holiday.

Our server, Destiny, was friendly and helpful with info and drink recommendations. The vibes were great here, and everybody was very welcoming. This is definitely a place we’ll be adding to the regular rotation during our trips to PB!

Visited this location on a work thing. Gave me an excuse to try as many things as we wanted (lol) kept it simple and we ordered a fish sandwich, Caesar salad (I know boring), fish and chips, fried calamari, and some other stuff that I forget.

Food was good, definitely got our moneys worth (and by ours I mean the company chose well for a tax write off). Staff was super friendly and helpful and took their time answering our questions, especially given how large our party was.

We visited in the evening around 5pm on a Wednesday night and the restaurant was not as busy as it appears in some of the other reviews. It was actually surprisingly quiet and it gave is the chance to talk to each other without having the need to yell over music or other tables.

Parking is super tricky, there is some parking in front of the place but because it is a busy area, I would not rely on it. There is parking to the sides of the building but it’s not super close and its a few minute walk.

Great location, but we asked for no cilantro in our food, came with cilantro, waiter could not care less and called it “micro greens”. Mac and cheese tasted off. Mahi sandwich was nice

Awesome! I like the theme, and while it’s typically dead after hours, they can deliver a crowd!

Mostly known as an eatery. Food is pretty good.

Pretty nice restaurant overlooking Pacific Beach. Food prices are on the higher end, the taste of the food was decent, but needed something more for a higher review. The calamari appetizer dish was a little greasy. The fried fish from the fish and chips was good but the fries tasted “off”. Scallops were made perfect but the combination on the plate with the blanched peas and carrots lacked some flavor. Also had a sushi plate that was tasty.

We walked on the beachfront to the restaurant. Parking may be right. Fun upstairs joint overlooking the beach and the Pacific. There was a DJ and the music was hopping. Jess, our waiter, was fabulous and just the right amount of attentive. The food was delicious and ample. I had the fish tacos and garden salad with a creamy vinaigrette and my date had the steak frites after an chilled half-dozen oysters. The cocktails were well-made and delectable. A fun night out, and we’d go again!
