Beautiful decor, delicious half chicken, great service, comfortable seating, (mostly) classy patrons. Just wish the music and TV screens footage matched the ambiance, but they were trap and sports respectively.

Wait staff were great (we were there on Halloween) - funny, informative and attentive. Great drinks and food. Atmosphere was perfect for a work or social event. Appreciate the attention to detail from the moment we arrived. Would definitely go back.

This was our second time dining at Books & Records. The first time was on a busier week night and with the close tables and live music it had a liveliness to it but not super conducive for quiet conversation. This time we visited on a Sunday evening and it was quiet and we had great table conversation. Both times our food was excellent (we love the brussel sprouts and the chicken bao buns). This time we also got the tuna crudo and it was delicious. Service is attentive and our server was kind.

The salsas alone are worth the trip. Tortillas handmade on the premises are delicious. The recently expanded menu means everyone finds what they want. Taco Tuesday is a fantastic bargain. Fish tacos are sublime and made with high quality fish. My mate loves the steak and also fried chicken tacos. Shrimp Diablo was yummy. Love this place.

    Beautiful November morning in Coronado do had breakfast at an outdoor table and service and food were great. Enjoyed the guava-pineapple mimosa and the egg white turkey omelet. Busy place so reservations are recommended!

    Clevel is our favorite restaurant. The food is always superb. The staff is helpful and pleasant. The views are fabulous. I usually order the ahi stack which is absolutely fantastic. The ahi is fresh and the crab, avocado and mango augment both its flavor and texture. The sauce has changed from year to year (There was a time when the ahi was seared but if you requested unseared, the chef complied), but the dish remains my favorite. My other favorite is lobster mac and cheese. It is sinfully delicious, and I am one of the people who can easily devour it in one sitting. The times I haven’t (I am a slow eater) I have finished my “doggie bag” as soon as I arrived home! The rest of the menu is also superb; I have tasted most dishes. But these two are my absolute favorites.
