Eddie V’s Prime Seafood and Steak

My family and I came here recently for Fathers Day and really enjoyed our dining experience. We made a reservation prior and were seated right next to the window (GREAT VIEWS) upon arrival. I think what made this place amazing was the ambiance and the service. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable about the wines and the cuts of meat offered.
FOOD: Probably one of the best crab cakes I’ve ever tasted! My filet mignon was tasty however slightly overcooked. The Daou Cabernet Sauvignon our waiter recommended paired well with our food.
Overall great fine dining experience. I’ve had better but with the ambiance and excellent service we will return (crab cakes).

Service was great, along with the view. Only came for a drink and an appetizer and ordered the calamari. Tasted GREAT. But the portion was unbelievably small. Made to look enormous by a plate full of rice noodles, micro greens, and green onions and maybe 8 calamari rings. Normally wouldn’t post about it but I felt like I got swindled @ $ 17.

Went here for our anniversary– the table was decorated perfectly with a card signed by staff. the only thing was that the table was by the bar in the middle of the front dining room so no view of the ocean. Service was perfectly timed — friendly but not intrusive.
Food was excellent — I love steak, foie gras, truffles, and red wine. The crab cake was the best version — tons of crab with very little binder. My husband’s Manhattan was awesome and now I have a love affair with bourbon cocktails. Would have stayed longer and gone to the lounge upstairs had we had a proper sitter. Fully plan to come back.
PS: I put my business card in for a gift card —
Didn’t win but got vouchers for free appetizers. Now that’s classy.,

The boyfriend and I love La Jolla and we try to come down every couple of months. Every time we do, we make sure to stop by Eddie V’s for dinner. The last two times out of three-​including last night, they were out of everything we wanted on their menu.
I wanted the Sole-​they were out. The boyfriend wanted the ribeye-​they were out. We decided to make the best out of the situation and ordered a bottle of wine. Service was slow-​the manager himself had to come wait our table.
Since they didn’t have anything we REALLY wanted for dinner-​we decided to order appetizers and sides and we’re looking forward to their banana foresters dessert. Well, guess what? They were sold out of that as well! Really???
How does a restaurant run out of their staple dessert? How…
The live jazz band was nice-​but, we were so disappointed we didn’t even care to stay and listen.
It was a disappointing visit. Oh, and may I add the women’s restroom was out of toilet paper! It was just a disappointing night Eddie V’s.
UPDATED review: So, we were back in La Jolla for Memorial Day weekend.
We made reservations at Eddie V’s through Rani, which I must add, was very accommodating and pleasant to deal with.
This time around, everything was perfect. Our server was very attentive and pleasant. They were not out of their delicious Parmesan Sole nor their rib eye. The sides we order, all very tasty. They sat us at a table which was outdoors, with amazing views-​yet, we could also enjoy their live jazz.
Thank you for making us want to come back again. We look forward to our next visit to La Jolla and Eddie V’s!!!

Fan fan! Stu the bartendar is awesome! The waitstaff is fantastic. We had reservations in the bar at a booth for 4 on Memorial weekend and I only made them a few days in advanced. No problems whatsoever. Hostesses sat us promptly. Perfect window view with tv view too and the game was on! Great drinks. The fried oysters were good, nice and crunchy. I am a bit spoiled by a friend who makes them straight out of Mississippi so they didn’t compare t hers but were good. Wasn’t a fan of the sauce on them. The blackened Salmon was really great, cooked to perfection and came with asparagus. I had the Shrimp and Crab salad which was pretty good. The seafood was tasty but nothing really special. Nice, fresh but didn’t wow me. The Chilean Seabass was a WOW. AMAZING. Perfectly cooked was served atop this sauce with brussel leaves. The sauce was drinkable but the fish was to die for! The bill wasn’t bad either. 1 app, 2 salads, 3 dinners, 1 app for dinner, plus 4 or 5 cocktails for about $ 250. Deal! Love it here. The atmosphere is friendly, the views are incredible. Down in the bar cozy or upstairs on the deck next to a fire pit, heater, you can’t go wrong.

We ordered steak and lobster torture, clam chowder, and swordfish entrée.
All of them are really delicious. We can call them nothing but best seafood. We are together with beautiful view of la jolla and local music performance.
We will recommend to others.

You did it Eddie V’s! You brought me home to the promise land!
Brought my mom here for her birthday meal. I had written that in our reservation it was her first birthday without my dad– and they helped make it feel so special and sweet (just like he would have wanted.)
Did we get the absolute best seat in the house? End table ocean view – Check!
Did we get a fantastic waiter that I wanted to be friends with? Michael! Call me! – Check!
Did we get a meal that was perfect to reminisce the day with? GIMMIE THAT SHRIMP – Check!
Eddie V’s has the best experience you need in town. Ask for Michael as a waiter, and order the salmon. Trust me!

Happy Mothers day honey! It was either this place or a Filipino cuisine in downtown SD. After looking at the mothers day menu, wife picked this one and we will go to the cuisine for Father’s day.
Downtown LA Jolla is difficult to find parking so we chose to valet for $ 10 plus $ 5 for tip. Then another $ 5 for pick up. Good thing this valet is right in front of V’s.
As you enter, you know it’s a fancy spot with their wall of wine and a wonderful view of LA Jolla shores. As we check in for our reservation, both my wife and daughter were greeted with a long stem red rose! How elegant! From our seat we can see Birdrock. Of course I had to get a bloody mary. I was disappointed in the bloody mary. The rim hardly had salt and it wasn’t as strong as I would like.
Before our drinks came out we were delivered 4 mini cinnamon rolls topped with walnuts — one each. Family don’t like almonds so I had my fill. Then we ordered food. Thank goodness the kids didn’t mind ordering from kids menu for $ 15 cause the adult menu was $ 50.
I ordere another bloody mary and was disappointed again… same result. Ohh well. Anyway, I ordered the 6 Oz filet chefs way with an over easy egg. Dayyuuuum. That was awesomely fantastico!!! 5 out of 5!!!
For dessert I got the banana foster? It’s banana bread dripped with firing rum… sea pic.

It was my gf’s birthday and we had our dinerat Eddie V’s. I have to say it was a great diner for us. The food was really really great. Our favorite dish is the seafood tower, we really enjoied that. I ordered the lemon sole, and it was a very tasty dish. My gf had the new york strip, which was also an excrllent food. The free dessert, the black forest, was really amazing. It was very kind of the restraunt. Thank u.
Only one thing I have to point out is that we dont like the crab fired rice. The flavour was good but the rice was too soft and wet (not sure if its a right expression) for us. Its different form fried rice in China. Did the chef used fresh steamed rice to cook the fried rice? Or he putted some water in that?
Anyway, it was a very good experience for us for having diner in this restraunt!

The staff was amazing, especially when we asked to be seated with a view and move our reservations up by 2 hours! Our waiters were awesome! They made the experience very enjoyable. The food was great too! Loved the hamachi sashimi. Very tender and flavorful with the sauce. The Chillean seabass was AMAZING! Love how it just melted in my mouth! The filet was tasty as well and cooked to perfection: Medium rare. The two sides, asparagus and scalloped potatoes, were very good too. Definitely a very romantic restaurant!

We tried Eddie V’s for the first time based on location, appearance, several recommendations, and its Unilocal reviews :-). I used OpenTable to make the reservation and took advantage of a checkout option to order flowers for Tammy’s birthday, to be delivered to the restaurant. A hostess called me the day of the reservation to confirm, and I discussed the flowers with her, asking that they be waiting on the table, or delivered after we were seated. They were waiting at an excellent booth table when we arrived, and were exactly as portrayed, and lovely.
The entire experience was superb. The view, perfect. The service, excellent — attentive, but not hovering. The maître d’ stopped by several times and was charming and solicitous. But the food! Oh my. The crab cake appetizer was amazing — real crab, moist and flavorful. The Pacific ahi tartare was beautifully presented with several slices of citrus, and the ahi pieces were piled on avocado and mango that blended beautifully.
Whitney and Stephen loved their jumbo gulf shrimp. Tammy and I shared plates of a halibut filet and a barely-​seared Pacific ahi. Both were perfect. The halibut arrived hot on a hot plate, moist and flavorful, especially enhanced by a tomato broth. The ahi was incredible, with a crispy tempura shell and kung pao sauce. It melted in our mouths.
Our server was great at discussing and recommending dishes, and the wine. Spot on.
We shared the crème brûlée for dessert, and it was the perfect end to this meal.
If there are any «negatives» at all they would be the need to order vegetables separately, and the $ 25 corkage fee. But I imagine the rent on the location is pretty high :-).
Finally, I was a bit surprised that they didn’t offer any acknowledgement of the occasion. I had indicated in the reservation that this was for Tammy’s birthday, and mentioned it again when I spoke with the hostess earlier in the day. Surely a small dessert gesture would be entirely in keeping with this classy venue?

From the moment I stepped out of my car after valet opened my door I was swept away by how cozy and sophisticated Eddie V’s is. I was with a party of four, I started with the IceBerg BLT, Crisp Bacon, Maytag Blue Cheese, Buttermilk-​Chive Dressing… amaz!!! Appetizer-​Chilled Shellfish tower, Maine Lobster, Shrimp (8), Oysters (8), Jumbo Lump Crab. Dinner-​I had the Double Breast of Chicken, Roasted with Mushrooms, Shallots and Natural Jus, the flavor combination had my taste buds dancing. We ordered the mac and cheese to share however it was lacking in flavor, taste, and was quite dry so we sent it back, I wouldn’t normally agree to this however it was hard to «choke“down. The filet mignon, Lobster tails and New York Steak were also ordered, melts in your mouth. They offer live jazz in the back area on certain nights.

I really enjoyed our dinner experience at this location. We were welcomed by the hostess who said that we could eat either downstairs or in the upstairs lounge where the live jazz was being performed. We opted to go upstairs and sat at the bar. Christian the bartender took care of us with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc and a glass of beer.
To start, we ordered the crab cake appetizer. This was a large, delicious crab cake that wasn’t filled with breadcrumbs but was solid lump crab! Yummy! For entrees we ordered the salmon and the cod. The salmon was perfectly done and served on a bed of veggies. The cod was so meaty, too! The portions are so large that we could barely eat ½ and had to have both entrees wrapped to go.
The service was great and the quality and preparation of the seafood was on par. I’d love to come back during the day and enjoy the view with a glass of wine.

Impeccable service by Josh!
Celebrated Valentine’s Day weekend and an anniversary. The restraint catered to our request of an amazing view.
Walking to our table, rose petals and a wonderful card signed by the staff «happy anniversary».
We shared a bottle of Merlot.
Potstickers were amazing — the broth and pieces of mushroom, green onions, ginger and bell pepper on top made it even better!
Oysters were fresh (I chose the small ones) and their shallot vinegar sauce was an amazing combo.
I ordered the George’s bake scallops — SO good and had grapefruit, oranges, and it was cooked perfectly. Not too rubbery and not too soft. The almonds made a great touch to it as well (this went well with the wine we chose considering it was citrusy)
My boyfriend had an 8oz butterflied med rare steak. And truffle Mac n cheese… Holy moly the Mac and cheese was DELICIOUS. Fresh truffle on top as well, I’d go back for the Mac n cheese honestly.
They had a dessert on the house for us, josh recommended bananas foster and we went with it. Pecan ice cream with a buttermilk cake and bananas on top, which was brûléed in front of us.
Overall, amazing food, great service (if you can recommend Josh as your server — you won’t regret it!)

So, yes, this was one of the tastiest meals I’ve ever had, but I have to put in a strong recommendation for the Bananas Foster dessert. We went back again 2 nights later just for dessert!

Took my Mom here for her 70^th birthday and it was one of the best dinners I have had in a long time. Our waitress was very informative and attentive. Food came out hot, fresh and flavorful. I really dont have anything bad to say. Everything was amazing and worth the price. This is one of my new spots in La Jolla now. Great job!

Fantastic food and service. The location is also great and provides a wonderful setting for a great dinner. Highly recommended.

Came here to celebrate my boyfriend birthday and I had been to the location in Gaslamp for lunch but it was my first time this location and dinner time.
The food was okay and service was good. I don’t like the fact that you have no view while the restaurant next door has the best view around.
Dinner was around $ 250 we did get a bottle of wine. Not too bad but I had better food and service and views before for that price or less.

Amazing food, wonderful waiter named Chris but one let down… when it was dessert/​coffee time, he had no sugar in the raw or brown sugar for us. That’s a must in any restaurant, I think. Hope this helps.

Everything was really good!
The manager and the waiters were so professional.
We didn’t call to make a reservation at 5 p. m we walked in and asked for a table next to the window with an awesome view, they seated us on that table although it was reserved for 6:30.
Their seafood was really good.
I loveeee the desserts!

To celebrate Christmas 2015 early, we made a reservation at Eddie V’s in La Jolla. We have eaten at their other San Diego location a couple of times, but never were able to get a decent hour reservation for the La Jolla location before. We got there about 15 minutes early for our reservation and the restaurant was super busy that Saturday night. There was a wedding along with lots of large parties eating there.
After a 25 minute wait, we were seated in the main dining area in one of the higher tables that overlooked the rest of the restaurant. During sunset, the view at the restaurant must be breathtaking because the restaurant sits on one of the La Jolla cliffs. There’s an upstairs eating area which is outside and a bit cold this winter, but there were many heat lamps on full blast. We waited for our table at the upstairs bar/​dining area. There was a live 2-​man band playing upstairs inside.
For our meal, I had the Lemon Sole ($ 30) and my friend had the 8oz Center Cut Filet ($ 40). We also had the crab fried rice ($ 12). For dessert, we had the famous Bananas Foster ($ 10).
Everything was delicious! The service is excellent! Atmosphere is wonderful!
I think Eddie V’s is very likely my favorite restaurant in the San Diego area!
Please see my pictures!
Xie Xie!!!

I came here for lunch last Saturday with my girlfriend. No reservation & we were seated within 10 minutes. Lunch was good but our service from only our server was horrendous.
Complimentary bread & butter
Point Judith Calamari = Kung Pao Style with cashews — Breaded & crispy, just the way I like it, & seasoned with delicious sauce! I do wish there was more sauce because it was literally just a drizzle.
Filet Medallions & Gulf Shrimp = Served with asparagus & way too much tomato (salsa style). You do not serve steak with salsa… In addition, the shrimp was super fishy & tasted as if it came fresh out of the ocean. Not really my cup of tea. Fortunately, the medallions were incredibly tasty!
My girlfriend & I dressed nice casual & this is a fancy restaurant. Our server treated us in a way as if we could not afford to eat there, making snobby remarks. Later on, a group came in & her demeanor with them was a complete 180. She was conversing with them, giving them recommendations & the daily specials, the whole deal in order to get a good tip. She barely acknowledged us & we were ready to go. I had gone to the bathroom & she asked my friend if we wanted dessert. She said no. I came back & asked if we wanted dessert. I said no. She finally gave us our check 30 minutes later after we had been asking for it, with the dessert menu! Clearly, she was not attentive to us.
This location is very popular with tourists & parking can be non-​existent. There is valet out front $ 9 (cash or credit for an additional $ 1).

After a 3 day New Years trip to San Diego — we stopped in la Jolla for lunch on the way home here at Eddie Vs — it was the PERFECT way to end our mini vacation — fantastic view from our table on the patio great service and amazing food !
We will be back again to try other menu items next time we are in the area

First and foremost the bananas foster. Skip everything and just go straight to that! Possibly the best dessert in San Diego. The citrus scallops were incredibly refreshing and a different flavor combo than most other scallop dishes I’ve seen. I got the peppercorn crusted steak, which was also amazing. The bread was also very well baked. Overall their baker is one of the best out there, which comes through in the desserts and any other baked items.
Having said that there were some flaws. The beets with walnuts were decent. Their lobster shrimp bisque tasted burnt and had two small pieces of lobster with no shrimp. Then there was the crab and corn chowder which was standard. Not ground breaking or anything special.
We also had the smores dessert, which was really good, but happened to be served next to the best bananas Foster you’ll ever have.

I absolutely enjoyed my experience. Eddie V’s was an excellent choice to celebrate my sister’s birthday. It was definitely great to experience great food, drinks, service, music just a fabulous environment to celebrate my loved one’s bday! I will be dreaming about our food for days. My recommendation would be YOU HAVE TO TRY THE BANANAS FOSTER CAKE for dessert. DELIIIISH! One of the best restaurants in SD!

One of the highlights from our recent trip to La Jolla was dinner at Eddie V’s. The food was amazing and service was top notch!
Our waiter recommended the lobster tacos and it was an excellent choice. They were flavorful and full of lobster! So good that we almost thought about placing another order to go, lol. Although there are only 2 tacos per order, they were good sized portions, which is on par for the other items we ordered. Quality food, but hearty portions as well.
We also got the mushroom salad, which was huge, it could’ve been an entrée. I’m also a lover of goat cheese and the goat cheese on the salad was creamy and delicious.
My husband ordered a Prime NY Strip and loved it! I got the Chilean Sea Bass, which was also really good. It was slightly overcooked for my taste, but the quality of the fish was excellent.
We ordered the crab fried rice as our side dish, which was rich, but very yummy!
Will definitely be adding Eddie V’s to our next La Jolla trip as well!

Came here with a friend for nice lunch. The view is stunning so I enjoy going during the day when I can take full advantage. We split the Crab Cake Entrée and the Jumbo Gulf Shrimp. They were both amazing dishes perfectly prepared. We finished with the Dark Chocolate Toffee Smore dessert and water. It was a bit of an expensive lunch at $ 45, but we were both stuffed and didn’t need to eat dinner. The dessert was so large, I don’t know how any one person could eat that alone. This place is great for catching up with a friend or any special celebration. Parking in La Jolla is your biggest challenge here.

My boyfriend took me here for our anniversary and it was absolutely amazing.
Had reservations for 6 o’clock, when we arrived we were seated right away; a window seat. There were rose petals and a card on the table signed by all the staff. It was a very sweet gesture.
Got complementary bread and water as soon as we sat. Our waiter was Alex, he was an outstanding waiter he was very nice and told us about the popular choices on the menu.
I ordered the Sidecar it was so good and was rimmed with sugar; we also ordered calamari as an appetizer. The calamari was so delicious, it had an Asian flavor to it. Our waiter came by and asked if we were ready for our next course. I loved that! (I don’t like how at other places you get your meal while you’re still enjoying the appetizer.) I had the lobster and crab bisque and my boyfriend had the blt salad. The bisque was very good, my boyfriend loved his salad as well; our waiter brought him 2 different dressings.
After I had ordered the jumbo gulf shrimp and my boyfriend ordered the filet mignon cooked well done, we also got a side of the crab fried rice NO mushrooms. My boyfriend loved his steak! He let me try a bite, it was the most juiciest well done steak I’ve ever had. My shrimp was okay, I wasn’t a fan of what was on top of it; but I just took it off and was happy with just the shrimp it was delicious. The crab fried rice was very yummy but unfortunately ended up having mushrooms in it.
After dinner our waiter told us to choose any desert on the menu for our complementary anniversary desert. We chose the chocolate cake, it came out shortly after and it was delicious!
We had such a great time here, our waiter made everything perfect too. We mentioned the mushrooms and he took the rice completely off our bill! So nice of him to do that, we will definitely come back. The views are breathtaking, food is great, and service was outstanding!

Hands down the best steak in town. If you are a person who loves great seafood and steaks then Eddie’s V’s is a must. The minute you arrive you are greeted with a hello. After being seated no more then three minutes we had are drink orders. The server came over no more then five minutes to talk about the daily specials and took are order.
Here are the appetizers I highly recommend.
Maine lobster tacos
Shrimp and crab salad
Fuji apple salad
Batterfried oysters
For the main dishes no questions you must order the following items.
Center cut filet
Ribeye
Halibut
Here are the following side dishes that are must!
Parmesan and chive french fries
Pan roasted wild mushrooms
Crab fried rice that comes with mushrooms and scallions
They have live jazz music that nice to enjoy your great dinner with. You are coming here for just dinner or a romantic time you will enjoy every minute here. Customer service here is excellent from A to Z. You can’t ask for a better run restaurant in town.

Make reservations because this restaurant can be pretty busy! We had a reservation at 9 (called earlier in the day), but arrived around 830 so we checked out the bars and scoped out the venue. Walking through the restaurant teased me… Everything smelled so good! The ambience and atmosphere is very intimate and dim, lit by just a few lights and a candle at the table (consider my dark photos). It may be a little hard to see the menu. I highly recommend getting outdoor seating to enjoy the breeze and view of the cove.
We ordered:
Caesar Salad (tasty, but a little unique with the whole leaves… ³⁄₅)
Crab and Corn Chowder (I felt like it was lacking in flavor ²⁄₅)
22-​oz Bone-​In Steak (Good texture and flavor ⁴⁄₅)
Filet Medallion (Sooo good! Complimented well with the asparagus and crab meat 4.5÷5)
Presentation was nice and service was alright, it seemed fairly busy considering we went on a Saturday night. On my next visit I’d like to try the seafood.

Came here for a work dinner and presentation, i was kind of excited because it was a really nice restaurant and i had never been here before.
The salad was pretty plain and boring, the mini version of the crab cake was disappointing, the middle was not cooked properly. The thing about crab cakes is the large (crunchy) surface area, this was more tall and skinny so there was only a small area of crunchy-​ness. so over all it was kinda mushy and didn’t have the crunch that you get from a normal portion crab cake.
The Atlantic Lemon Sole had it’s high and low points, It was a large portion, and had all the crunch that the crab cake was missing and had lots of butter, but it didn’t have any kind of salt or flavor to it. The acidity of the grape tomatoes and lemon helped to cut thru the butter and added some flavor but i wish there was some sort of herb and or salt component to the fish itself. It was very clean tasting and perfectly cooked but just kind of one note.
Service was on point, excellent and attentive; and the view was out of this world! Since it was a work dinner, i did not have to pay. If i did, i think I’d expect more out of the food for my money, but i know that these preselected dinners are slightly different from their regular menu. So for now its 3 stars, but I’d definitely check it out for special occasions and the 5 star view of the cove.

Eddies V’s is worth a 5 Star Review!
This place has it all.
From service to ambiance, the food, the live jazz band on weekends, the bar downstairs, did I mention the food?
Let’s begin here.. Make sure you have reservations for a perfect table. I prefer the second floor for its privacy and elegant set up. The menu is perfect. The items, cooked to par, and double checked once received.
The servers are extremely professional. They know the menu, make amazing suggestions, and have proper etiquette in terms of item placement, follow up, and conversation.
Although the filet mignon and shrimp scampi are my main course suggestion, I highly prefer the dessert menu! Trust me, non of these items will disappoint!
Although everything above is PERFECT, the icing on the cake is definitely the Jazz band that plays the most amazing tunes! ! ! (Wait is this real, GREAT food & Entertainment?)
My greatest suggestion is to have a nice elegant and classy dinner upstairs and then head down to the bar to enjoy the live music throughout the night with a sleek glass of wine. (Currently smiling at the thought of this)
I mean this Unilocalers. I cannot wait to back.
A perfect 5 stars!
A perfect package!
Happy Eats Unilocalers!

Perfecto crepúsculo. Un lugar donde se combina el sonido del mar, el vino y los sabores de forma sobresaliente.
El crab fried rice, lobster tacos, la ensalada con black cherries, vinagreta de cítricos, maytag blue, etc y el swordfish son maravillosos. La cava es generosa.

FABULOUS!
Delicious food
Wonderful ocean views
Impeccable service
I don’t know if Eddie V’s benchmarks the Ritz Carlton when it comes to gracious hospitality but they truly invest in the two best things that will make a restaurant great, their people and their product. From the minute we walked in to the minute we left, everyone that worked for Eddie V’s was polite, gracious, hospitable, professional and friendly and the food? INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS!
Since we were here during the graduation weekend the open deck with outside seating was closed so we sat in the bar to have lunch and a television and lit fireplace with an ocean view was perfect. The tables were lined with fresh linens and large crystal goblets adorned the table.
We were surprised to find ourselves at Eddie V’s again since we were just at Eddie V’s at the Harbor two nights ago but more than happy with our decision to try out their La Jolla restaurant which had been bookmarked for years.
I ordered the lobster tacos it was an easy choice and all I can say is wow! Yes, yes, more, more. Everything about this dish was perfection. Fresh, light, full of flavor. The hubby had a crab salad and was equally satisfied. Honestly, I don’t think there’s anything on the menu that would be less than outstanding.
If you want incredible food, beautiful ocean views and a impeccable service come here!
I just found my favorite upscale restaurant in San Diego! I’ll be back!

Unilocal 2015 Challenge #80
Whoops this was supposed to be Review #400 but I miscounted somewhere and brainfarted.
TL;DR– Take your date, your lover, your best friend here and spend your money on fine dining.
Located in La Jolla Cove, with an amazing view of the ocean side, Eddie V brings high quality food and drink. How good? You have to come here to see yourself, but be wary. Meals are gonna be around $ 30– $ 40, and that’s only for your main course.
You have to call previously and make an appointment to dine here (although same day usually works out). Dinner starts around 5:00pm after their happy hour. We came in around 4.30 (yeah stuck in LJC) and proceeded to enjoy the view around until 5pm, when we were thus seated. We got a seat right next to the windows on the main floor, and I guess everyone would enjoy the view more if it were sunset. I bet it would be gorgeous. Alas, we didn’t really get to see it D: We had to drive back to LA that same night :(
We were given our menus and told the daily specials and the market prices of different things, on top of giving a description of the daily specials as well (so much memorizing D:). We were then given time to think things over, but we had been to and Eddie V before.
Bread: Just eat it. :)
Appetizer: Jumbo Crab Cake ($ 19) It’s as big as a fist (idk if that’s considered small or big for you) but every bite has a piece of crab in it. We split it into four and put the lemon on top of our individual crab cake. This tastes really good, especially if you’re into crab and the crunch :3
Main course:
Pacific Ahi Tuna– Seared with Asian Pear, Mango, Avocado and Roasted Cashews ($ 32). You can choose the rarity of the fish. I think we got medium, where it was cooked but had a bit of rawness to it. There are small pieces of asian pear, mango, and avocado that surround it, along with luscious greens that are on top of it. All in all, you had to combine everything to get the full flavor.
Swordfish Steak– Broiled with Fresh Lump Crab, Avocado, Cilantro and Red Chile ($ 32). Why it gotta be so small? :(It’s so good. The fish has crab and shrimp that is on top of it. It also has a fatty oil sauce that surrounds it (mhmm). I ordered it last time in the SD Eddie V and oh god I love it. It’s tender and soft and delish: D
Georges Bank Scallops –Sautéed with Citrus Fruit, Roasted Almonds and Brown Butter ($ 32). Yeah this is one of the things that I wouldn’t recommend. Scallops taste juicy and tender and all but it’s seriously one and done. The fruit was alright (tangerines and mangos) but I could eat one in a bite. And there are five. I know, savor, but… yeah. I wouldn’t recommend this. Good flavor though.
Side Dishes
Crab Fried Rice with Mushrooms and Scallions–
Small $ 7, Large $ 10
Why would you come here to get fried rice? Whaa? There’s a reason why. Mhm mh mhm. So good. It’s yummers. Seriously. I would eat this all day. Ofc, there isn’t as much crab meat here but the fried rice is better than any fried rice I would ever make. And since it’s only $ 10 (only. relative to everything else), spring for the large, The mushrooms and scallions complement the fried rice so well. Must get!
Truffled Macaroni and Cheese
Small $ 7, Large $ 10
The truffle is not overpowering and does not make you completely wanna throw up because it’s too heavy. This was alright for me. Not too much of a fan.
And then, if you still have room, you get… DESSERT.
There was a godiva chocolate lava cake that was OH so rich and delish. If you love chocolate, this is a must. Yes ma’am/sire this is most definitely a must. :3 But oh so full.
Service is 97% impeccable. They really have top of the line pampering service.
Parking? Either valet or you can find a parking garage and pay $ 5-​$ 10.
Enjoy :)

Excellent restaurant de poisson et fruits de mer
Petit bémol
