Cove House

Great food, pretty atmosphere, strong drinks. This is a restaurant that knows exactly what it is. A fun shabby chic place next to the beach with a small but upscale menu and pretty views. It has both single seats and table seats available for people watching. Indoor and outdoor. The menu had a lot of good stuff and while expensive you are in La Jolla. You get what you get. Husband got the plain eggs benedict and I got the crab blat. My bread was made with fresh rosemary sourdough and heirloom tomatoes and the crab was okay. It all came together very nicely. I got to people watch and enjoy some seagulls cruising for crumbs. I got an Irish coffee and boy was it strong. Made it easier to get refresher top offs of coffee which was offered at least twice. It was only a quick lunch but we got checked up on several times to make sure everything was good and there were TVs showing various sports games and some light cheerful music in the background. I would absolutely go back again

100% on the positive vibes, this place is beautiful, the barman is on it, super busy recommended to wait , ceviche was great .. get the nachos out and replace them for pita or bread to be top , The chimichurri steak was actually really good. mid red was mid red .. flavor was good ... avocado toast was juat an avocado toast.. but wasn't overpriced, so it is what it is. Overall, it's literally a straight 5 or. A 4.9 to give the opportunity of improvement. Get more menus .. tourist like to keep them when eating .. just saying .... 😌

The most amazing. Go here. Once you find parking this is a terrific lunch/brunch spot! A large menu with something for everyone. The steak and eggs was great, as was the fish special, stone crab omelet, and the citrus salad. Our server, I think Grace, was the most attentive and on-top of stuff server I’ve ever seen. Prices were very fair and they’re great with special diets. Top-notch place in La Jolla.

Beautiful location and a well designed fresh menu. The food was delicious. The paper drink menu is outdated, so only use the QR code to access the drink menu. The waiter was very busy (4 tables and they were the only waitstaff we could see). Therefore it was difficult to place a food or drink order. The food was worth the wait.

Amazing spot for brunch! I would give 4.5 stars. The apple pie french toast was perfect to split; the crab benedict was fresh and tasty; and the prosciutto benedict with arugula was done to perfection. the poached eggs were perfect. overall, this is a gem and another reason i love living here in San Diego!!!

This is a super cute spot to get a meal near the cove. The food was different than anything we’ve tried before (we live in Missouri). The sandwiches were unique and full of flavor. The waffle fries were good. The waitress was so very sweet and professional. She answered our questions and genuinely engaged in conversation which was welcoming. She even gave us to-go drinks, that was the cherry on top because we were very thirsty! Overall, the service was top notch and the food was good and priced fairly warranting 5 stars. We would most definitely return.
