Tra i migliori del quartiere

Blending classic East Coast culinary traditions with a modern Californian sensibility, Herb & Sea is Chef Brian Malarkey’s venerable companion restaurant to the much-loved Herb & Wood in Little Italy. Quickly becoming one of the most sought-after tables in town, the concept shines with a menu that focuses on simple, clean, bright flavors. Located steps from Moonlight Beach in Encinitas, the vibrant space is housed in a 1920’s art deco building that has been restored to its original glory.

Daily operations are helmed by Executive Chef Aidan Owens. The menu includes a mix of raw bar staples, fresh seafood, meat dishes, and roasted vegetables. A variety of pizzas and pastas round out the offerings, alongside dessert and a dedicated kids’ menu.

The spirits program is bright and playful, emphasizing citrus and floral notes that utilize the same ingredients found on the menu. The wine list offers a similar sense of whimsy, highlighting labels meant to complemen

The restaurant was incredibly loud, and the food was okay. Nothing spectacular. For the price, they should offer valet parking. Parking spaces are very difficult to find, so I won't recommend this restaurant.

Great ambiance - fun and festive. We had appetizers and drinks based on the excellent recommendations of our server. Parking can be tricky if you don't know the neighborhood.

The appetizers and veggies were wonderful, and delicious! The entrees were barely passable, and not passable for the expensive prices. They were so not tasty, that 0 of 3 wanted to eat the leftovers for the next day's lunch. We had the chicken fried swordfish: not great: MEH. Husband had the halibut in Chorizo. Whoever thought that was a good idea was really off. It was chewy, the sauce was not great and had a kick of hot spice to it. We all took bites, and none were really good, or worth the high price. The appetizers were good, and that is all that I would come for again. The wine was barely ok for $25 a glass! I asked for another brand, and was mistakenly not told that my order was not available by the glass, so the server opted me in for a $25/glass of chardonnay without letting me know. I would never have opted for that, and to his credit, he removed it from the bill. In short, we paid over $300 for 3 meals that we did not like the entrees. Something has changed, because the last time that we were here, the food was extraordinarily great in all ways. I am concerned that they may not make it, if they do not adjust to a better pallet. Since they do such amazing appetizers, I know that they must know what is good or not. I am hoping that they change back, so I can come again.

We love this restaurant. The food is exceptional! Super cute spot and great service. It is worth the money. They change their menu every so often, so far we haven’t tried anything we don’t love!

This place is actually insane. Best meal I’ve had in a long time and it’s not even close. The filet, oysters/bonemarrow, Caesar salad, hush puppies, potatoes, and gnocchi were all superb. Ambiance is swanky with great art and really amazing service. These people are on it!!!!

Lovely ambience but the actual food can be very and hit and miss. This visit was a miss - food came out cold, took a long time to be served / checked on by our server, and the food overall was not up to standard of past visits.

I really wanted to enjoy my solo dinner plans at Herb & Sea, but they failed… badly. My reservations were for 1 person on a Saturday night. I checked in and the place was packed, but I waited in front of the host stand for 30mins before being seated. I was ignored for 20 mins by 3 different hostesses until I asked what was going on. They had ready excuses and that my table was being bused as we spoke… waited another 10mins then asked to speak to the manager whose name was Luke. Amazingly, my table was ready right away and Luke sat me down and asked about diet restrictions. He recommended and ordered the ceviche with plantain chips for me. I told him I wasn’t going to order dinner anymore specifically bc of the wait time and I had to leave at 9pm and I didn’t trust they could cook and serve me in less than an hour. He said he’d send out the ceviche and I ordered a glass of wine. Nick was my waiter who came over with my wine and instead of standing upright like he did for all the other couples and groups, he leaned and crossed his arms over the other chair across from me. He took my menu and notated/wrote with a star what was gluten/dairy free… like I’m a child or a helpless little girl who can’t read or know what was gluten/dairy free. I ordered the tomatoes appetizer and he only filled my water glass after I pushed it toward him. Nick didn’t refill my water or take my ceviche plate away after I know he looked over at me and my table from the next table over. The tomatoes were served by another buser, but she had no silverware. Nick, at the next table over, heard/listening and turned around to give me a knife and fork then finished with the other table and left without checking in. Nick came by later and asked how was I. I said it was good, but I’d like the check. He leaned on my chair again while refilling my water glass. I told him ‘you know, you don’t need to lean on my chair’.
