Ironside Fish & Oyster San Diego Reviews from The Last Year
Hoppin' place for oysters and seafood.
We got a variety of oysters, which were excellent and fresh. I got steamed clams in a sort of Thai coconut broth. It was excellent. Wish it had more broth! The lobster roll was really decadent and good. The pesto pasta with scallops was also looked tasty.
Happy hour $1 oysters are the best.
We also got the chowder fries, one shit on a shell, and shrimp tacos. All very yummy. Definitely worth the trip during happy hour (weekdays 3-5 I think).

Wow. The vibes of this spot were absolutely immaculate. It definitely seems like a great spot for dinner and drinks or a special event. We ordered the octopus, fish and chips, and both catches of the day - wahoo and yellowtail - with the pomegranate side. The octopus was delicious, featuring a hearty portion in a creamy nutty sauce. The fish and chips was also super tender, featuring battered rockfish paired with chips. The catches of the day were grilled and honestly a little over cooked for our liking. However, the pomegranate based side was absolutely delicious - my jaw dropped. I personally preferred the yellowtail over the wahoo. The service was a little slow but the food came out super quickly. We also felt like our waiter wasn't the most attentive but otherwise we enjoyed our meal.
Super bad service! The waiters have attitude, inattentive
Super bad service! The waiters have attitude, inattentive and rude! Never going back!
I ordered the swordfish with bone broth and veggies.
The swordfish was cooked to perfection but the bone broth sauce was really the star of the show! Ended the meal with an espresso and banana pudding -- divine! 10/10 all around!
My favorite happy hour place for food and $1 oysters.
I loveee it here. Service and food is always so amazing ! I come here probably every 2 weeks. The freshest oysters. The lobster roll is amazing , great happy hour deals and the chowder is quite nice too ! They have a great array of hot sauces and the decor is absolutely beautiful, consortium holdings always do amazing concepts and service with their restaurants
Delicious fish and chips enough to share as an afternoon
Delicious fish and chips enough to share as an afternoon snack! My boyfriend and I loved the inside of the space and we sat at the dessert bar and loved watching all the movement. We spent the morning at the farmers market and took nice long walks through Little Italy. Overall food was good and drinks were just ok.
Absolutely phenomenal.
What a cute setting in little Italy! Loved the oysters and amazing lobster rolls!!! Will be back!
Service was a bit scattered, but not terrible.
Wait staff and hostess were friendly. Food was terrific! Chef's choice crudo was fantastic. Steamed clams were perfect...I would have preferred some sourdough with it, but their bread was ok. We will definitely be back.
Well…. A miss. Should have been better.
Had heard great things but overall a disappointment for the price point. We were seated at the bar (unexpected but ok) and we sat there for several minutes before anyone came. Then we saw no one for about 12 minutes and had to ask for water and the whereabouts of our drink order. We had reservations do to be stuck at the bar was odd. The clam chowder was slightly salty but was very good. The octopus and clams were also good. The service was slow, uneven, and we felt forgotten about. Wish I could say more but for the type of restaurant they purport to be it didn’t match up with the service we received.
Fabulous late lunch of oysters & lobster with a delicious glass of chilled rose wine!
Really superb late lunch enjoyed at Ironside, an old Iron works building in Little Italy - phenomenal oysters (6 different types to choose from or do as we did and try them all!) and an entire lobster which was very expensive but also very delicious - a one off treat! Save room for dessert - try the sundae fundae - you won't be disappointed! Definitely recommend!
Good food poor service
Food was good. We sat on the street and watched the world go by. Service was poor, drinks took a long time to come and it was not possible to order a second drink before we’d finished eating as we could get our servers attention.
Delicious and fresh
We had an enjoyable evening sitting at the chefs counter/table at this bustling seafood restaurant in busy Little Italy. I was able to make a counter reservation the same day for a Thursday evening spot at 6. Service was a bit slow, and they changed servers after we ordered drinks (and sat waiting for 20 min) but once the change was made, things seemed to go fairly smoothly. We started with a few of the thick and meaty peel-and-eat shrimp doused in an old bay wash and served with aioli -it’s nice that you can order by “the each” so you can get as many or few as you want. No matter how many you get, they definitely “taste like more.” They are so good part of me was wishing I’d just gotten more and some grilled bread. We also split the ho-hum house salad that was very light on the dressing. For our main, sharing the decadent lobster roll with fries was just the ticket. Prices seemed fairly reasonable for a place of this caliber. With a few glasses of wine w and sharing things, before tip was only $114. You definitely need a reservation. We took an Uber from the hotel despite having a rental car and were glad we did as parking is super limited in the area. Recommended
Great seafood platters.
The octopus a la plancha and crudo with daily fish were both amazing. Decor is super cool and service is excellent. Cool place to sample all types of seafood.
Great fish restaurant
Enjoyed some good food. Be aware that they son’t serve any meat. Prices are on the mid too higher range level. Service is quick and friendly
Loved the food and decor
Great casual atmosphere and lots of interesting decor around the interior of the restaurant. We had an order of fish and chips and an order of fish tacos. The food was served hot and delicious, the staff attentive and friendly. There was a good selection of local beers and mixed drinks on hand. A very good experience and we would eat there again. Prices were reasonable.
Twice as nice
Found this place in Little Italy section of town via the internet. Very cool decor. Service was great and so were the cocktails. I ordered the lobster roll with housemade bread. Best lobster roll I have ever had. My wife had the Fish and chips. She said it was the best she ever had. Shared the ceviche which was also good. Liked the food so much we went back another night.
Fresh seafood and wide selection of drinks
A comfortable place and while the prices were on the higher side, it was worth every penny. We came for post flight fresh oysters and and the oysters and horseradish were very fresh and delicious. We are going back tomorrow, which doesn’t happen often.
Delicious Seafood!
With the help of Chef Jason Mcleod who once held 2 Michelin stars from RIA in Chicago’s 5-star Elysian Hotel emerged Ironside but after his departure last year, Chef Danielle Van Steen has kept the classics on the menu such as; lobster roll and Octopus a la Plancha but also incorporating new locally sourced seafood, produce and ingredients to bring out the highest quality flavors in each dish. With a whooping 5k+ reviews on Yelp, 3.8k on Google Review and 1K on Trip Advisor, you know I had to give them a visit! Although some may say this Maritime themed restaurant does not belong in Little Italy, I beg to differ and feel that Ironside adds class, fun and an ocean feel! (You can literally see the ocean from the side walk) Ordered Octopus a la Plancha – The octopus was very tender, the chorizo and olives brought a nice saltiness, the arugula mild pepper flavor added freshness to the dish Rockfish Ceviche – I enjoyed this dish but it was a typical ceviche, didn’t expect it to have so much liquid, thought maybe the chef wanted to display the fish better Oyster’s – The three that we tried were Shooting point, Phantom Creek and Sapphire. The petite plump meat , mild flavor and clean finish made Phantom Creek our favorite. Steamed Clams – This was by far our favorite dish, the lemon grass coconut broth was sooo good and not overly cream. Fresno chilis and chive oil paired well when dipped in broth w focaccia bread!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
