What People Are Saying About Boathouse

The Editor

Citysearch

In Short – For an afternoon lunch or sunset dinner, take in panoramic views of downtown, Coronado and the Marina at this nautical-themed spot. Take a seat in the dining room against large, waterfront windows, or inhale fresh ocean air on the patio. Weekend brunch is the ideal family affair; this special menu features breakfast and lunch items along with $5 bottomless mimosas. Famed surf and turf combos include the filet mignon with scampi or lobster. – –

Great View, Reasonably Good Food

by Lisa Lisa

You can always count on a decent meal at The Boathouse. What they lack in food quality they make up for with the view. The Lobster night packs a good crowd, but it's especially messy and not great. Friday night is Prime Rib night, which is better, but not always consistent. Cocktails can be pricey, and they talk you into getting a tall for just $2 more, but it's not really worth the extra money. Worth coming here at least once.

  • Pros: All tables have a nice view, parking available
  • Cons: Early happy hour, a lot of stairs to climb

great for the bread

by tonyginsd

Being fair, my food was decent, especially the bread at the beginning. After that, it goes down hill, our waitress was very friendly, when we saw her. Everything was overpriced, especially for the amount you got. The view of downtown at night is beautiful, too bad you cant see that from the stuck in the 70's restaurant. We were also disappointed in the fact that our gratuity was included for us. Now normally, if it was a large group, I understand, but there were two of us...to me, a tip is something I decide on, not the restauran

  • Pros: the bread, view from the parking lot
  • Cons: service, overpriced, ambience

by dm557

THIS IS THE WORST RESTAURANT I HAVE BEEN TO EVER. A VERY LONG DRMATIC STORY SHORT, WE HAD AN HOUR AND A HALF WAIT TOTAL FROM SITTING TO FOOD COMING OUT, ALL 4 STEAK AND LOBSTER DISHES WERE COOKED WRONG, WHEN WE ASKED FOR A MANAGER THE "OWNER" CAME OUT AND THREW A BUNCH OF ATTITUDE ARGUING WITH US THAT WE HAD NOT BEEN THERE THAT LONG ALL ALONG ROLLING HIS EYES, WE TOLD HIM HE WAS BEING RUDE AND HE AGAIN EYES ROLLING TOLD US WE COULD LEAVE IF WE WANTED TOO. I WISH I COULD ACTUALLY HURT HIS BUSINEES FOR THE SCENE HE MADE AND EMBARRESD MY WHOLE FAMILY AT OUT MOTHERS DAY DINNER IN FRONT OF ALL OF THE OTHER CUSTOMERS. SERVICE=BAD, CRAMPED=BAD, OWNER AND MANAGER= RUDEST GUY I HAVE EVER MET. PLEASE DO NOT GO THERE, YOU WILL BE HUGELY DISSAPOINTED. I THOUGH GAY GUYS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE HAPPY AND NICE! NOT THIS GAY!

  • Pros: service, management, owner, over booked,
