Brockton Villa

"We came here for the first time for San Diego restaurant week on a rainy night after dark. The interior is in a quaint historic house with some fun decor. Only downside was the really loud table of people nearby the made our impossible for us to communicate without shouting. Not the restaurants fault but the acoustics of the room didn't help. The food was stellar with very fresh ingredients. I had an apple pecan salad that was top shelf. Then my entree was a linguini plate with sun dried tomatoes, artichokes, feta and olive tempenade. It was my favorite part of the meal and also had protein options though I was splitting the salmon plate with my wife so I didn't add any and it stood up on its own. The salmon and couscous was good quality and cooked well but nothing better than what I'd expect from most decent restaurants. I tried both the chipotle bread pudding and the dessert toast. Both were fantastic. The pudding was more interesting and complex but the toast with the ice cream was toasted brioche and was perfect in its simplicity. On their regular menu they have a lot of toast varieties. Service was good. Overall it'd love to come back in the daylight so I can sit with the nice view of the cove and the seals."

"Better to reserve a spot because this place is so popular! And the food was amazing. Lovely ocean view and friendly people too."

"Very good food that is mainly Italian style with a nice view to the ocean in a fancy location at La Jolla. They are professional in their service and care about their guests as the call to confirm the appointment and their, they keep making sure everything is right, and towards the end the chef asked if the food is good and meet our expectations. Their Salmon fish and the ribeye steak is highly recommended. The seafood with rice was not very impressive and small portion. Also, the lobster soup was amazing and rated as five stars hotel dish"

"No food pics but our party of TEN was hungry after the area adventures. I called ahead and was so happy to secure a full table to accommodate us. We were welcomed in and served promptly. The entree wait was impressive at about 20 minutes, though we ordered a spinach artichoke dip appetizer with extra French baguette to tide us over. Kids enjoyed the coloring. We come on occasion with our out of town guests… just not this size group usually. Thank you BC!"
