- MMarilynSan Diego •17 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoMy girlfriend and I go there a lot. We usually split the Caesar salad, which is the best ever Caesar! Today we split the avocado toast. It was pretty bland for our taste. We usually think of avocado toast as having some sort of little kick, but this had none. Salt and pepper helped a little, then we asked for some aoli, which was chipotle mayo, which also helped. But we both decided that we wouldn’t order it again.More infoWaverly Restaurant & LoungePrice: Expensive• American• Encinitas•4.6
