    I normally recommend this place but this evening was not fabulous. There was a large noisy party, so we were seated in the back where we couldn’t enjoy the view since the people at the party were all Standing. Then after getting home I realized we were charged for a dish we didn’t order. Not our best night 😞

    Wonderful selection of food styles . We chose the oyster on half shell which were very fresh. Next for dinner we both choose the tapas inspired Octopus. It’s something that people of all ages, including my 10 year old son could enjoy. And the view! It’s one of the best in the harbor as you get to see all the yacht's driving by. Located next to Star of India this is a must if your in Aan Diego.

    Outstanding views matched with outstanding food. Couldn’t have had a better experience here at Top Sail for Mothers Day. Bonus for not having to be stuck with brunch like so many other places on this day. Love the menu and selection- highly recommend.

    You are for sure paying for the quality of food. The crab cake was freaking amazing and the best one the wife and I have had yet. The service was also amazing. We had a reservation for 515 but ended up there earlier, and they got us in as quickly as possible. They let us know the table needed to be cleaned.

    The host (don’t know the guy’s name) is unreasonable, rude and borderline racist. The server was nice. View is good, won’t go again just because of the host guy.
