Restaurants near Balboa Yacht Club

We came here for my birthday and I just have to say when we arrive at 6:45 the tables were ready immediately and our server Phillip was just fantastic. Great recommendation and incredibly friendly. Made our birthday dinner just fabulous. Thanks for the amazing experience Phillip !

Had an early 5:00PM Saturday birthday dinner with another couple and loved the hip and happening vibe at Ocean 48!!! Oysters and crustaceans on ice surrounding the kitchen was a fun entrance. Music was great and the pool inside one wing of the restaurant would be fun to sit by next time but we had a great table at the far end and enjoyed people watching. We shared a salad and prime meatball appetizer, then loved the salmon as well as scallops with sides of baked potato with a ton of toppings on the side and awesome creamed corn! Outstanding. Expensive but more than enough when split. Waygu prime rib next time. Looked delicious! Nice wine and cocktail selection and they brought a beautiful chocolate layered cake with the birthday guy’s name in chocolate sauce on the plate was a classy touch. First class service!! Don’t miss the bathrooms as they have the heated seat Japanese toilets and modern sink hardware to die for 😄. We will definitely go back!

The service and quality of food at The Farmhouse is always superb, and today was no different. My friend Kathy and I wanted a long leisurely time together for lunch and conversation, and Farmhouse's team provided just that in a lovely setting underneath warm heaters and surrounded by beautiful gardens. Whether you order the yummy mussels or Granny Smith apple salad (my favorites) or the burger and fries (my friend's favorite), you will enjoy every bite!

Great spot to dine on New Years Day. Everyone from the hostess to our server were very welcoming and kind. We were offered champagne upon arrival and given a dessert to top off the holiday meal. Our server was exceptional in every way. We ordered a large salad & sushi. Both were tasty and well prepared. Highly recommend for a higher end feel but casual atmosphere and delicious food.

Fantastic - Javier’s never fails! With friend in town for the holiday we wanted to do something festive for late afternoon drinks and then an early dinner. Service was outstanding - starting with sitting at the PCH side bar where our original bartender is still serving up perfect jalapeño margaritas — to the hostess who easily accommodated our request for table in that area for dinner — and then the food stoke the show. Queso fundido was terrific, Pork Verde and the Salmon dishes were ‘off the charts’ and the chicken Enchiladas and Crispy Tacos were perfect. Javier’s ALWAYS lives up to it’s reputation. We’ll be back again & again!
