- Richard RevillaAugust 29, 2018Awesome food and view of the Pacific. Finding parking in La Jolla is a bit limited but they do have street public Valet for $11 or a parking lot next door for $10 during the day.
- Andy DunnJanuary 6, 2019Really fun vibe. Good drinks. Food was hit or miss but the good was very good. Great energy. Skip the sweet potato tacos. The best view.
- Alexandre MunhozDecember 29, 2023Absolutely fantastic. You’d think that with this view they would neglect the kitchen, but the food was actually delicious. Tartar, crudos, seafood.. all fresh and tasty. Good service and wine list.

- TolgaFebruary 7, 2016Foods are good; view is nice ; but they start dinner time at 16:30 which is so Early and prices are nearly double Of lunch. (exactly same starters 7 Usd at lunch; 13 Usd at dinner ) ;
- y contentDecember 30, 2015happy hour 3:30-6:30 with ridiculously reasonable prices for such a LIT atmosphere/location. get the short rib panini; life is short.
- Amanda ReussAugust 21, 2019Grab a cocktail at the ocean terrace for sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean. Great wine list and daily food and drink specials are available daily.
- Aida ShamsOctober 20, 2016Great experience ! It's really hard to reserve side tables though! I called one month in advance and still couldn't get the side table! AWESOME food and good service.Loved it!
- Kristen HaasSeptember 7, 2013Sat in the middle level because we thought it'd be too hot on the roof. Nice environment, small. Fish tacos were so tasty! Topped with mango salsa & an avocado cream sauce!
- Brendan LoudermilkJanuary 4, 2019That view tho. Cocktail program is absolutely top. Great spirit selection and knowledgeable bartenders. Host and table service were disappointing. Avoid the ceviche.
- Dana TedescoDecember 2, 2013The Tasting Menu is well-worth $72. The four fully-satisfying, locally-inspired creations by Chef @TreyFoshee are clever, innovative & taste-tittilating in a non-pretentious fine-dining environment!
- Natalie MJuly 31, 2019Delicious food and awesome cocktails. I prefer sitting on the second level but the upstairs outside level is very fun too. All the food the same and yummy
- Akhil BhandaruDecember 27, 2012Great View complemented by great food. When you're in La Jolla remember to go and enjoy the fine dining in a relaxed environment. The yellow tail was very delicate and nice, and all the food was great
- Diego RomeroMarch 23, 2014Top dining, great service. Grill es fish tacos, Garlic Roasted shrimp and a great Sesame Crusted Tombo (picture). Definitely repeat.
- Basheera AbdulazizOctober 26, 2018The food is really tasty and unique, but I think it’s too herbal for sensitive people. The Salmon dish + the view .. Heavenly !!
- Serious EatsSeptember 13, 2013This spot offers two separate dining concepts: the semi-casual Ocean Terrace on the top floor, and George's California Modern, a fine-dining restaurant below.
- Firat AkcoraySeptember 19, 2016perfect ocean view! delicious food kinda expensive but totally worths! be prepared to wait 30+ mins if u do not have a rservation at lunchtime!
- Aolani SmytheMay 11, 2014Very recommendable fine dining in any occasion at its best.. Lovely scenic view enjoying every breath while the yummy food makes the tummy so happy :) Five Stars!
- NanaAugust 9, 2017We got calamari, octopus and tacos and the octopus was delish! So we're the tiny potatoes in it. Creme brûlée was ok and the molten chocolate cake was mediocre at the best
- Hana KatemanJune 19, 2013The top level is beautiful! The ocean is gorgeous and creates the perfect setting for a meal. I got the shrimp tacos, and they were delicious. Definitely recommend!
- Courtyard San DiegoApril 29, 2012Home of some of SD’s greatest seafood, George’s offers multiple iterations of the perfect waterfront dining experience. The terrace & the restaurant serve separate menus, both with world class eats!

- Alexa PomericoAugust 7, 2014Make a reservation a day in advance (for a weekday) and eat on the terrace during sunset.
- TheDLOctober 23, 2015Good views up top AND in the bar. Also a lounge on the bottom section (so there are 3 seating choices in all). I don't think the kitchen justifies the cost tho. No oysters.
- Francisco J. BarreraSeptember 7, 2015For $75 you get the 4 course menu which is totally worth it. Octopus was a bit salty for my taste. Don't miss the doughnuts for dessert!
- Kathy SawickiMay 8, 2015Highly recommend the black bean chicken soup. Perfectly subtle heat and wonderful flavor.
- Russell HirschornDecember 27, 2015Fancy restaurant with excellent food. Dont forget to order an extra dirty matini with the blue cheese stuffed olives. #traveltude
- Mike BurkeJune 28, 2013When the Halibut is on the menu it is hard to beat sitting on top on the terrace and having that plus a few vodka sugar free red bulls ;)
- Sharon BondsSeptember 2, 2013The roasted garlic shrimp and the grapefruit infused martini were excellent. Enjoyed the ocean air on the terrace. I would definitely come back.
- Kristin C.February 22, 2014Exceptional service! The terrace will provide a breathtaking view of the ocean as long as it isn't foggy. I recommend getting a reservation.
- Payton SwickNovember 13, 2016Not a ton of vegan options but they are well marked and amazingly delicious! Highly recommended if you want a very fancy meal.

- Missie De Leeuw-BonoMay 26, 2016Major upgrades and lots of new menu items. Fab views. A must go when you're in the neighborhood!
- JasonDecember 13, 2012The mussels are great as an app. Grab a California Caipirinha, you will thank me later.
- Sam SNovember 29, 2015Wonderful view. Sitting outside you'd think they might have only average food, but you'd be wrong! Delicious breakfast and brunch food.
- The farro salad is so delicious! Every flavor compliments each other!!! Also the five spice chicken salad is tasty... Definitely sit on the roof for views & ambiance!
- Jackie BrownApril 25, 2016The fish tacos are a must. It gets busy so make a booking for dinner at sunset!
- KateNovember 29, 2014Faro salad is delicious - I like it better w the goddess dressing than the shallot vinaigrette it comes with.
- Carter GibsonJanuary 17, 2013Chef Trey Foshee at George's California Modern is cited as a guiding force in the San Diego food culture and one of the first champions of local seafood.
- George's is always fantastic if you are looking for a place to relax and have an amazing meal. Enjoy don't rush!
- James MoralesFebruary 10, 2012It's official, tuna ahi salad and fish tacos are the best!! I split both with my gf plus 4 of the SAN beers we were good to go!
- Barry RuckerMarch 8, 2015Stuffed dates, fish tacos, faro salad with ahi tuna. Very good but crowded for lunch. Great view.
