Oceana Coastal Kitchen 3999 Mission Boulevard, San Diego, CA 92109

"Food was bland and menu did not have much variety. I expected a little more from resort food. I did ask if the fish was fresh and they said it was, but it was obviously frozen and deep fried. They definitely have a great atmosphere with the beach and view of the cove. There is also some cool water features and a fish tank."

"Loved the Christmas Brunch and Cruise! Would definitely recommend for any San Diego visitors. We didn’t have any kids with us and it was still a nice activity. They separated the floors so that the main events (Santa, face painting, balloon characters) were on one floor and the kids crafts were on another. Alcohol is sold separately. Staff is friendly and make easy conversation. The brunch included everything from seafood to fruit. The brunch is all you can eat and self serve, but you do have a waitress that takes care of drink orders. They are great at clearing your table of plates to make room for your next round of food. I enjoyed the French toast and breakfast sausage. We also loved that they included crab legs. Recommend getting there a bit earlier as the crab legs do go fast. We also loved the omelette bar! It seems they have a champagne brunch often, so it can be enjoyed year round (without the cruise). The carolers moved throughout the boat so the Christmas spirit was everywhere. The food was very good and there was a wide variation. Also tons of activities to do on the beach (bike rentals, huge beach chairs). We could’ve spent the whole day here! Definitely a day activity to explore."

"Visited during restaurant week. The skin salmon with spam fried rice was incredible. Service was friendly and food came out promptly. Outdoor seating area is cozy with really nice views. Chocolate pistachio tart was cherry on top. Make sure to validate your parking if you’re not a guest at the hotel."
