Blending classic East Coast culinary traditions with a modern Californian sensibility, Herb & Sea is Chef Brian Malarkey’s venerable companion restaurant to the much-loved Herb & Wood in Little Italy. Quickly becoming one of the most sought-after tables in town, the concept shines with a menu that focuses on simple, clean, bright flavors. Located steps from Moonlight Beach in Encinitas, the vibrant space is housed in a 1920’s art deco building that has been restored to its original glory.

Daily operations are helmed by Executive Chef Aidan Owens. The menu includes a mix of raw bar staples, fresh seafood, meat dishes, and roasted vegetables. A variety of pizzas and pastas round out the offerings, alongside dessert and a dedicated kids’ menu.

The spirits program is bright and playful, emphasizing citrus and floral notes that utilize the same ingredients found on the menu. The wine list offers a similar sense of whimsy, highlighting labels meant to complemen

Nice guy server & ambiance, with only wine by the glass problems (not yummy, cheap taste at high price) & food prep problems: shrimp cocktail seasoning HORRIBLE (who needs seasoning on great steamed shrimp), my Skate fish dish was FLOATING in brown sauce (YUCK) making the already wet moist white fish soggy as heck (yuck) & wifey’s basic Halibut very very bland. Yummy chocolate cake dessert & sorbets, but the lemon sorbet WAY too mild lemon flavor (watered down WAY too much I say). My girly cucy Gin drink upgraded with Hendricks was nice & “refreshing” as they advertised. Most of the neighboring tables were ordering near RARE STEAK. Sad & odd that a “Seafood” based restaurant can’t do lotza seafood & do it well…but this is a CHAIN restaurant with the Owner trying to”different CONCEPTS” at each placed based on “the market.” Not a good thing. Not a keeper.

Based on the great reviews and location, we chose H&S. The night was off to a good start with a couple unique cocktails and some creative tasty raw/cooked appetizers. The Hoecake was spectacular! Then the evening took a less desirable turn when both of our Halibut entrees came out mushy. I can’t even explain the odd mushy texture. We sent the entrees back and the chef cooked 2 fresh pieces. The second set were cooked perfectly but oversalted (to our liking). We did not send back again. The service was great and we tipped the waiter generously. As we had to wait a solid 15 mins for the new entrees, it would have been nice if the restaurant comped one or both entrees or even a dessert. They did not. In any case, we probably would not return. We wish them the best of luck.

The food and service were excellent. They would have received 5 stars across the board if it weren’t for a manager who was wearing a Palestine flag pin that made us feel very uncomfortable and almost made us leave.

Food and service were great It was crowded at the bar but understandable with people waiting for tables The bartenders did a great job at making sure the appropriate people got seats at the bar once seats opened up and dealing with challenging situations at times from other diners. I appreciated their calm under pressure Oh yes the food was great too and I regret not being able to try more things on the menu as we were faced with some difficult choices deciding on the menu

The food was really excellent. Literally everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. My main issue was that we had a 7:30 pm reservation, that required a credit card to hold, and saw that they claim to have only a 5 minute grace period, and yet we were kept waiting 35 minutes to be seated. That was outrageous and they need to either change their policies or compensate their guests for that kind of inconvenience. I was only granted a 5 minute grace period to show up for my reservation (despite parking challenges) but had to grant them a 35 minute grace period? Sorry, that's bull. We won't be back.
