Herringbone La Jolla

Anna Belani-Ellis

Loved the 100+ olive trees, the vibe and atmosphere at Herringbone is perfect for dates nights, family nights or just having a fun evening with friends. Great bar and cocktail menu. Though the wine list can be more extensive, found it limiting. Oysters and lobster rolls were fantastic, a couple vegetarian optiond on the menu would help!

This is the best seafood I’ve had in San Diego so far. The ambience here is incredible. The building itself is an old auto body shop turned into a Tuscan seaport diner. The trees inside are real preserved olive trees. The service was excellent and the food was well worth the price. Make sure you swing by the bar and talk to Joe for great conversation and menu recommendations! For dinner we ordered the seafood tower, which was such a great sampler of all their cold seafood. For dinner I had their fish and chips, which was the best fish and chips I’ve ever had anywhere. They use a homemade batter from a local brewery (pizza port) to fry their snapper to a perfectly crunchy yet soft and flavorful breading. I also tried some of their scallops, which were amazing, and their filet, which was incredibly tender and perfectly cooked. The brandy peppercorn sauce on top was a great touch. For dessert we tried their coconut brûlée and their lemon blueberry tarte.

5 stars for sure! I’ve been wanting to go here for years and finally made it! Made a reso on open table for the same night. Very cool vibe inside with eclectic mix of songs playing. Definitely on the expensive side for drinks but everything we had was delicious including the aperol spritz. Recommend the petite seafood tower which had great portions of everything. Enjoyed the halibut ceviche the most. Salmon, steak and shrimp for mains all were delicious. Only 3 shrimp with that main so be prepared. Will definitely return.

The food was amazing! A group of us decided to go here on a whim while looking for a restaurant for dinner. The seafood was amazing, especially the seafood tower and octopus. The desserts were also amazing and the coconut crème brûlée was the best crème brûlée I’ve ever had. The wait staff were friendly and attentive. I’d definitely return and recommend to anyone in the area looking for a great meal!
