    Bathroom had no toilet paper, and we requested to be seated next to another group of friends either reservation at the same time and they refused- even though there was an empty table next to us! They just refused to accommodate us or make any effort. When we pointed out that there was a table available, they said they would move our friends there but only if we agreed to then pay a 25% gratuity! Ridiculous!

    We came in with a reservation at 7:15pm for a patio table for 2. When we arrived, the hostess informed us that the tables on the patio were turning over slowly and we would have to wait if we wanted to sit there. Or we could take a table in the bar area immediately. Which we did. This turned out to be a pleasant surprise. As soon as we were seated, our server Kyle came over to greet us and made us feel welcome and happy with our choice. He took amazing care of us and his attention to detail was impeccable. Start to finish. He is a credit to the Cohn Restaurant Group and the hospitality industry in general. We enjoyed everything that we ate, but the Pablano corn soup was a standout and it paired nicely with the shrimp aguachile. When you come in to Coasterra, you should ask for Kyle, you will not be disappointed.

    The dishes have amazing flavor! However, speak with your server if you’re particularly sensitive to spicy dishes. All the servers were lovely. And of course, this is probably the best night time view in town!

    I recommend a dinner reservation 30 minutes before sunset so you can see San Diego by sun and by the city lights after sunset.
