    Oysters and sushi were outstanding. My glass of champagne came with no bubbles from an old bottle apparently—how does the bartender, waitress, manager, etc. not catch something like that. Carrot soup was outstanding, steak was less so—not cooked properly and under a mountain of cheese (where is the steak?). Creme Brûlée was perfect. But at the end they sneak in a surcharge without any warning whatsoever—on a sign, the menus, from the server, etc.? Huh? The server said I could argue with the manager over it (and btw "all San Diego restaurants are doing it"; really if everyone jumped off a cliff . . .). Ridiculous that I am expected to ruin the end of my anniversary dinner arguing over a surcharge. Ok, ok, I won't be back. I guess that is why the restaurant was relatively empty. And it was restaurant week, the menus of which they didnt bring to the table until asked. I guess they dont see the hypocrisy of having a surcharge during the 3 course discount of restaurant week. I thought the idea was to get San Diegans out of their houses to support the local restaurants after all the tourists are gone. Oops!
    Oceana Coastal KitchenResponded on September 18, 2026
    Dear Carlton, thank you for your feedback. We're pleased to hear you enjoyed the oysters, sushi, carrot soup, and crème brûlée, but we're sorry other aspects of your anniversary dinner fell short of expectations. We apologize for the issues with the champagne and steak, as well as the frustration surrounding the surcharge and how your concerns were handled. Transparency is important to us, which is why the surcharge is disclosed at the bottom of our menus. We also regret that the Restaurant Week menu was not proactively presented. Your comments have been shared with our culinary and service teams, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We hope to have an opportunity in the future to serve you better.
