The Coast Toast is delicious and always my favorite. Also, I had my oat latte in a to go cup which kept it warm longer, which was a good idea. Great view on the patio, and we kept warm with a nice heat lamp. I love the Brockton Villa.

Can't beat the view! And the food was good but I almost laughed out loud when they brought my salad. It was so small for the price. I left hungry. The service was very slow as well.

The Coast toast has changed. It seems to be made from a loaf of french bread, with a lot more crust than it used to have. The orange flavor is gone. It has been overcooked for our last 3 visits. It matches neither the menu photo nor the one on the recipe card BV used to hand out. Very disappointing for a long time fan.

This is a charming, friendly locals place. Best to visit when not swamped with tourists, but still a La Jolla gem year-round.
