During these trying times, we are trying to adjust our service so that customers feel safe but still have a great Ki's experience. Daytime service is as it always has been: order at the counter and the food will be brought to you in the seating area we have created outside under the tents. Night-time is full service. Sunday through Thursday is upstairs. The tables are spaced far apart and there is an option of being out on the front deck for parties of two. On Friday and Saturday, we will be offering full service in both seating areas of upstairs and under the tents outside. Ki's is a perfect fit for its local beach community culture. We provide food options that serve the needs of people who enjoy the outdoors and have a high degree of awareness for their health, fitness and well being. And Ki's is more than just a 'health food' option for many. It is simply great food for anyone-professionals, families looking for a home-cooked meal or friends hanging out enjoying some tasty eats.

The bar offers a large circular firepit, which is nice on those chilly fall or winter nights.

We were a group of 7 celebrating the holidays! It was a perfect evening. Kaitlin (?) I think was our server. She made sure each person in our group felt like her only guest. Very pleasant and professional! One, and ONLY one, piece of constructive (I hope) criticism: the chopped salad was unappealingly huge. I shared mine with 3 other guests - it was heaped on my plate - and was over dressed, and a bit soggy. Not fresh. Otherwise, the meal was very good. And my martini was one of the best ever!

This was the first time I attended Pacific Coast Grill and it was amazing!! I had the halibut with shrimp scampi. The halibut was perfectly cooked and went so well with the scampi and risotto. The atmosphere got a bit loud as the restaurant filled up, but the food definitely overpowered any distractions.
