Tom Ham's Lighthouse

Four of us came in for a family dinner and loved this place. We ordered soup, four different seafood plates, and a bottle of wine. This is the best seafood restaurant I have eaten at in San Diego! You also get beautiful views of the harbor, you see boats go by, and in our case, we had a full moon in the sky! We were too full to order dessert, but would love to come back for just drinks and dessert.

Came during happy hour and was pleasantly surprised! Amazing appetizers that were so filling. Fried oysters were yummy, and so much for 12 dollars. Tenderloin tips, so much on the plate it was so much for 16 bucks Honestly just a great place to come during sunset, so make sure to come a bit early to grab the tables on the patio -- we sat indoors at the bar and the umbrellas were in the way of the view. Great service, very friendly!

One of the best spots to hang by the bay & people watch on the water. The Tenderloin Tips are always fantastic, the ‘Tiny Bubbles’ gin drink packed a punch & had great flavor. The paella is also wonderful, I always end up ordering it if i’m staying a bit longer. Great service & atmosphere. Love their happy hour (3-6pm). Would recommend getting there before 5pm to find seating in the bar area as it gets packed.

We had the best experience at this amazing restaurant. The Beer Braised Ribs melt in your mouth and the truffle mashed potatoes tasted like truffles. The Paella was excellent, plenty of seafood and fish. I know this sounds weird, but I had the Fontina Polenta instead of dessert. Trust me, it's the best Polenta I've had in my life, so creamy and perfectly seasoned. The view was the cherry on top of the cake. The restaurant has a dedicated parking lot, so you don't have to worry about finding parking. Everything was just perfect.

This place is beautiful! The views are spectacular! The service was wonderful, drinks were perfect, and food was cooked to perfection. I got the fried snapper and the apple crumb cake to fulfill my sweet tooth. 10/10 would recommend. They have boat races every Wednesday. And we waited to watch the moon come over the city. It was an amazing experience. Make sure you make a reservation.

The best food with the best view in San Diego can be found here. Enjoy top notch sea food while watching the boats sail across the dazzling skyline reflected on the bay. Whether you drop in for brunch or dinner, the dishes are always flavorful and cooked to perfection. Next time you’re planning a fancy meal out, I would highly recommend Tom Ham’s.
