    OB surf lodge is in a great spot with a beautiful view of the ocean. When we went we got the Chilequiles and Maple Pancakes with Candied Bacon, all DELICIOUS!! I definitely want to come back. The service was great. There were also a couple of adorable dogs around and a super fun dog menu!!

    We really enjoyed the location, the service, and the food was terrific. The options of inside and outside dining is great. When the restaurant is busy, it may be hard to have a conversation, but the pleasant location and food is really worth it.

    So pleasantly surprised! Great service, delicious food ( Chicken Fried Stk & Eggs and Salmon Power Bowl😋), very pet friendly- even having a “pup menu.” Wonderful location! Will make it a weekly trip from Carlsbad.
