    I love Haven! It has a cool vibe like you're on vacation or you're in a ski chalet. Luca, one of the team memebers is so personable and remembers us everytime we dine there. I want to try the prix fixe menu next time. The culinary presentation and attention to detail is on par. The chef is extremely creative and knows how to not over cook fish! I love the prawns, but honestly every dish is amazing, creative and so fresh. The craft cocktails are bursting with favor and so unique. The entire staff has always been so professional and welcoming. It's kind of a food desert in north county so I really appreciate this gem. It's a great addition to Encinitas.

    I’ve eaten lunch at the Landings several times and the food has always been delicious. Last Saturday night was my first dinner with the added enjoyment of the band. I loved the party atmosphere sitting outside. It was almost impossible to talk, but we managed to yell at each other so we still had fun!
