    Delicious, fresh food! We stopped in for a quick lunch and were pleasantly surprised with the freshness of the salads we ordered. It was a slow Thursday afternoon and it would’ve been great if they offered WiFi (as of this review they do not) but we would gladly return as this is a very cute, well setup spot! We enjoyed all of the following: - Burrata Plate - Southwest Chop Salad (with Mahi Mahi) - Frisee & Arugula Salad (with Mahi Mahi)

    We went back to this place because we had such a good experience the first time we went and it's still awesome! The drinks are excellent. My son's brisket was cooked perfectly. The truffle fries with Serrano aioli was amazing! Our server was great (helpful when I couldn't make up my mind and not impatient). We will definitely go again. Thank you!!

    This place has it all—amazing food, drinks, and vibe! The crab hush puppies were the perfect mix of southern flavor and local crab, and the hot honey chicken was hands-down better than Nashville. Don’t skip the caramel chocolate dessert—it’s unreal! Drinks are top-notch too—hard kombucha, craft cocktails, and weekly specials. Shout out to Alicia for her awesome service—she made the night even better! Perfect spot for any occasion. My new favorite for sure!

    Chef Kate is exceptional! Food is full of flavor. We enjoyed the brussel Sprouts , Birria Croquettes are a must! The chimichurri Steak Sando was amazing. Next time I'm ordering the fish & Chips. Our bartender Manley makes the best old Fashioned and expresso Martini. The atmosphere is fun and relaxing in the Oceanside way. Can't wait to come back.

    We never came here for dinner when it was just Pacific Coast spirits because it always looked empty. But we popped in at one point and realized it was actually a pretty cool place to hang with great beer. We learned that the owners of South Coast brewing took it over and they were redoing the menu. So we came in today and it was absolutely fabulous you guys. We had the chicken schnitzel and the Cajun pasta. I also had the best hazy beer of my life. I really stand by these owners and definitely check out South brewing as well... great people and they do an amazing job. I really hope to see this place fills up and becomes a hot spot. Great people, great food, great drinks.

    We hosted a 175 person buyout at Pacific Coast Spirits recently and it was sheer PERFECTION! Lucia is a dream to work with. Once on-site, her team was professional, efficient, and tended to our guests every need. The ambiance is great, and the food even better. We had a few guests do whiskey tastings and they loved that experience. The quality of ALL of their spirits is top shelf! Love that they are locally made-and you can even tour the back area where they barrel all of the different varieties of what the produce. We love supporting a local small business and will definitely return if we are ever in the area again! Don't miss on this local spot- belly up to the bar and have some tasty appetizers and the BEST gin and tonic I have ever had!! Thank you PCS for a FANTASTIC event! You guys are great!

    Happening joint with great drinks, and unique menu items- I had the halibut over kale, and my wife had the spicy chicken sando. Both were excellent. Our server Parker was easy going and very attentive. The manager even helped us find a parking spot. We felt welcomed, and had a great night out. If you haven’t been here, you have to give it a try.

    The food is gourmet quality, and the menu options are very favorable to most peoples liking. All the food is noticably fresh and never frozen. Big kudos to the head bartender/mixologist. The cocktails are very well proportioned and spirit forward, which makes sense because all their base spirits are made in-house. The atmosphere is very relaxing and modern with a large game of connect four which is a great change from most games at restaurants. I highly recommend checking this place out, you won't be disappointed!
