When I'm in San Diego, I love eating here. It is great seafood and drinks, in a great atmosphere where you are sitting outside, watching the boats, the water, and the people.

We cannot say enough good things about Harley Gray! Prices were terrific and very good quality! First, we sat at the bar for a drink and a beet hummus appetizer (so delicious) during happy hour. Nick, the bartender, was so welcoming and attentive. Then we sat at our table for their Live Main Lobster dinner (on Thursday nights) that was cooked to perfection, served with a side of rice. My partner also ordered a side of green beans that he loved. We were pleasantly full by the end of the meal so we didn't have room for dessert...next time! We plan to return often, especially to try their other specials!!
