Peohe's

Our server was great! I wish I remembered his name it was an older gentlemen but he made us (party of five) feel welcomed and even cracked a few jokes keeping us entertained. We sat outside with a spectacular view of the water. It did get cold as the sunset and in the shade so we had the heat lamps on. Food was good. It was my first time there but not everyone's and I was told the food used to be better. We shared an appetizer (pu pu platter) and some of the sides. Note: while they don't have it listed as a side, it is possible to get the garlic mashed potatoes as a shared side. My dad was brought the wrong dish because the sides were wrong however it was quickly rectified. While I am not big on desserts the rest of the party enjoyed the hot lava cake which was made to order and, I'm told, extremely delicious. I ordered a sushi roll. Three of the five order a variation of steak or prime rib. My dad ordered the sea bass. If I ever make it back to San Diego, I wouldn't mind going again.

We came for a birthday brunch and even though our party of nine waited about 15–20 minutes to be seated, everyone was so kind and the views were so pretty that none of us minded. Drinks took a bit to arrive, but once everything settled, the food absolutely stole the show. The guys ordered burgers stacked so high on pretzel buns they needed a game plan, and my seafood Cobb was loaded with big juicy shrimp, creamy avocado, and sweet lump crab , I want another one just thinking about it. And please don’t miss the calamari starter: lightly tempura-fried with thin veggie strips… honestly, I’d come back just for that.

The ambience here is gorgeous. Romantic and classic inside , and waterfront views on the patio and inside patio. However, it feels like some of the details are slipping. My dishware was dirty, though the host handled it quickly no big deal. Front staff was a little eh.. but my server was 10/10. The food itself is just okay. Nothing bad, but nothing memorable or exciting either. It has more of a traditional, old-school feel, the kind of place I could see my grandparents loving and coming back to often. For me, the flavors didn’t quite match the price point, so the value felt a bit off. Overall, it’s a beautiful restaurant, but the food and execution didn’t fully meet the expectations set by the ambience or the cost.
