Best Seasonal Restaurants in Imperial Beach

Amazing experience food was great server was super helpful for my first time I had reserved for a special occasion for my wife Asked for the fried chicken with thiachili was delicious nothing compared to the short rib that is a must ! On top of the tartar for deserts save space for last

10/10! From the food, to the service (Geena? She was so sweet and attentive!) to the amazing happy hour menu. My boyfriend and I had an absolute blast. Definitely highly recommend!

We had a lovely new years brunch (though I do wish they actually served brunch fare). Everything was very delicious! The service, while very friendly and accommodating, got a little slow toward the end as it got busier, which is understandable. It would’ve been okay except we were in a booth that was one of two they have for parties of six but maybe six short, slim people? Pretty uncomfortable, especially in that corner spot, I spent the whole meal with my arms up over the back of the booth. I’m chubby but the rest of my party were regular sized men and one slim woman and we all felt squashed. But otherwise, a beautiful meal on a lovely day.

Dining at Serea was an absolute delight from start to finish. The service was flawless, with every detail thoughtfully attended to, making us feel welcome and well cared for throughout the meal. The food is an inspired fusion of Mediterranean kebab-style cuisine and high-quality seafood ingredients, offering a fresh homage to Middle Eastern flavors. Each dish is beautifully crafted, showcasing a seamless blend of tradition and innovation. The presentation of the food deserves special mention. Our sea bass was arranged to appear as though the fish was making a sharp U-turn, adding a sense of dynamic movement to the dish—it was almost too beautiful to eat! Taste-wise, the swordfish kebab was sublime, melting in your mouth with each bite. The scallops in the risotto were equally remarkable—silky, tender, and perfectly balanced with the creamy rice.

Breakfast was really good and our server super nice and attentive. I had the poblano chilaquiles, spicy and good! The regular coffee was good too. We’ll come back to try chilaquiles verdes..
