- SSeanSan Diego •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoFriendly hostess makes reservation simple. Loving waitress refills our cups all the time. Wonderful location and ocean view. Beautiful! Could use a little more parking information on the website.More info333 Pacific - Steaks & SeafoodPrice: Moderate• Steakhouse• Oceanside•4.6
- DDavidSan Diego •18 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoAlways a treat to dine at Vigilucci’s. The service was next level, the fried baby calamari appetizer was light and tender and the seared scallops over mini risotto cakes with a roasted corn, red onion, asparagus, and bell pepper medley, topped with a slightly spicy cherry and sun dried tomato sauce was absolute divinity. Almost forgot the perfectly made old fashioned to kick things off.More infoVigilucci's Seafood & SteakhousePrice: Expensive• Italian• Carlsbad•4.8
- JJohnvipSan Diego •8 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoGot reservations for seats at the bar. There is a tasting menu, as well as a separate bar menu, mostly small plates. Cocktails from menu are twists on classic cocktails, and they were truly extraordinary, as well as the off menu cocktails we ordered, and we've sampled some of the best. Food sampled at bar: Crudo, Tartare, Pain et Beurre, and Gougere. All were phenomenal. Service at bar was very attentive and knowledgable, they know what they're doing, and they do it well. Cool vibe and music playing from reel to reel player in bar. Very open, busy kitchen with frequent calls from cooks, "Oui, chef!" Great for foodies and cocktail nerds. Pricey, some may not appreciate the value.More infoJeune et JoliePrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary French• Carlsbad•4.9
- CCarolineSan Diego •3 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoBeautiful restaurant inside. I rated three stars for food only because there were scant few vegetarian and vegan items. Those were basically side orders. There is not one salad available as an option. The other four people in our party that ordered meat meals really enjoyed their food. I also ranked 4 for noise because the only table available was outside, which is next to another restaurant that had their own music playing. I think if you requested a table inside, it would be perfect. I ordered a martini and it was average And very small. We ordered the s’mores for dessert (And there is actually a vegan option with a vegan marshmallow) But they didn’t really Taste like s’mores. The presentation was lovely though, although not real effective grilling your own marshmallow over tiny coals. I would definitely go back if the Restaurant would provide some actual vegan meals.More infoCampfirePrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Carlsbad•4.7
- MMarkSan Diego •2 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoTotally worth the hype, came in for my Wife's birthday and was blown away. No words I could post would really do this place justice, just know it's as good as it seems, if not better than expected.More infoMatsuPrice: Very Expensive• Creative Japanese• Oceanside•4.7
