The minute you walk into Poseidon, you’ll be swept by the fabulous view. You couldn’t be closer to the sand and the beach than sitting at Poseidon on their beautiful outdoor patio. With such a spectacular ocean view, you’ll experience breathtaking sunsets and during the right season even catch a glimpse of the whales migrating up or down the coast. The bar offers a large circular firepit, which is nice on those chilly fall or winter nights. Off to the side of the bar is a split level dining room offering every table a panoramic view of the beach and the ocean. For decades, Poseidon has delighted both local San Diegans and the tourists that love the beach.

    All of our entrees at our lunch were really good and you can’t beat the view. Service was attentive and friendly. This is a neighborhood gem that we love bringing out of town guests to.

    Poseidon has leveled up its game. Has always had great service and been a good watering hole. But our last two visits had amazing food. I mean amazing. And the service had gotten even better. It is now in our rotation.
