Best Casual Restaurants in Oceanside

Everyone was great, food was great, we had 2 vegans who also loved their food. Thank you for catering to all types of food preferences!

Great. We enjoyed the Rueben, and the Mac and Cheese. It was all delicious. We had the butter cake which is very popular. For me it was too much like cheesecake which is good but not what I was expecting.

Texas de Brazil was wonderful! The food was excellent and service was exemplary. Thank you for the experience!

I recently visited Merenda Wine Bar, and I can’t recommend it enough for anyone who appreciates quality wine , the staff is friendly and is passionate about sharing it with their guests. The wine selection at Merenda is unique, featuring wines that are grower producer wines, natural, and many are female owned, they feature wines that you won’t find at just any establishment. While some may have noted a corkage fee, it’s essential to understand that when you pay retail price, it feels incredibly reasonable, especially for the quality of the wine . Merenda is primarily a wine bar that serves sharing plates—perfect for pairing with your glass (or bottle!) of wine. I found it ideal to either visit before or after dinner, as the atmosphere is perfect for a lovely pre or post dinner conversation What makes Merenda even more special is it is Opened by a local Oceanside resident, it fills a void in the area—offering something completely unique. Cheers 🍷

Nice rooftop dining for Sunday brunch. Bottomless mimosas and espresso martinis. Many oyster options, ghost pepper prepared were excellent.
