This is a very expensive restaurant with views that could make your heart skip a beat. It is clean and has a seafarer ambiance. The food was very good but not great. The service was extraordinary. People were extremely helpful and gracious. I
The view is perfect here.
Like eating right on the beach. The bacon is perfectly crispy and cooked. The seafood stew is good. Will be back soon
I've been to Jake's a few times for lunch, and while the
I've been to Jake's a few times for lunch, and while the view of the ocean is wonderful, the food seems very average and a bit pricey. The restaurant has a nice ambiance, and service is usually friendly. Last time, I had the mixed seafood p
It was okay.
My husband ordered his Filet medium rare and it was well done. Ummm my plate was good! Margaritas were good. Over all it was good! Our server was great
Amazing views right by the beach.
Great food and service. This restaurant is located on one of the most beautiful beaches I've seen in Southern California in a beautiful neighborhood.
Didn't enjoy the entire "experience.
" Jake's used to be a nice seafood restaurant. But it seems as if it now wants to be a high-end, expensive place with small over-priced plates. But it doesn't have the atmosphere and the food isn't up to it. The greeting and
We were seated by the beach side with a wonderful view.
The food was great and the service was immaculate. Of course we had the Hula Pie which was simply awesome.
The best food, service, and location in all of San Diego
My wife and I treated ourselves to dinner at Jake's Del Mar tonight. We've been coming here for over 25 years. Our waitress, Lucy, was wonderful as were the rest of the staff members. My wife's Sesame Salmon and my Chef's burg

Great food (ceviche, poke bowl and fish and chips with an impressive bottle of Sancerre), wonderful location on the Del Mar coast, and our amazing server Beth. Thank you so much Beth. A great afternoon at Jake's

Great Sunday brunch menu, hamburger, seafood, and several breakfast dishes. I recommend the eggs benedict. Thank you Trey for the great setvice.
Great location, terrible food.
The fish tacos tasted frozen, over-fried, and mushy inside -- not what you'd expect on the coast. Even the water was warm with no ice.

I celebrated my husband's birthday at Jake's in Del Mar! We've eaten at their sister restaurants in Malibu (Duke's) and Kauai (Keoki's) and were excited to try Jake's! I thoroughly enjoyed the Surfing Steak, which came w
I love the location here and the valet makes parking work
I love the location here and the valet makes parking work somehow... Food choices are great and drinks are great, plus it's right next to awesome beach and grass area park. If you want a place to dine and sunset, this one will fit the bill quite
The service and atmosphere was great.
The food isn't the 5 star best but it is above average. Try to call ahead for the outside tables next to the beach. Those are hard to get. Parking is $10 valet but cheaper than the public parking
Front row table was amazing.
Bubba was super helpful and the hostess team were warm and welcoming. Drinks were real good including ginger mocktail (!). Fish tacos and Tostadas were also very good. I am always grateful for warm and friendly team members.
The view of the beach is gorgeous!! The food was amazing
The view of the beach is gorgeous!! The food was amazing and so was our waiter. I forgot his name. They were all so accommodating
We love the ambiance here, it's right on the water.
Service is on point as well. We had desert and my husband had drinks by the bar and they took care of us, as if we are having a full meal.
Fantastic lunch with fantastic service and a fantastic view!
We had a fantastic lunch here. The welcome is friendly and service great throughout. The fish tacos were amazing and it was a lovely way to spend some time with a great lunch watching the surfers on Del Mar beach. Don’t get caught out paying the ca
Crowded tables
Two of us ate a late lunch and the location and ambiance was the best. The restaurant was crowded and the tables are so closely spaced that your neighbor is almost shoulder to shoulder. Noise level is high. Seating in the bar area at long, shared tab
Terrific restaurant
We had dinner at Jake’s. It was very busy but the staff were professional and happy. The service and food were awesome. The crab cake appetizer was one of the best we have ever had any where. The view of the ocean is magnificent. Parking is a bit t
Overall very good
I wish there was a way to rate a 4.5. I can’t give Jake’s a 5 because there are a few clunkers, but it is closer to 5 than a 4. It is a beautiful restaurant with a lovely view. The service is close to great. The food is for the most part excell
Good Ribs
Went for dinner. Nice views of the ocean. My food ratings below. Ribs (8.3/10, tender, good BBQ) Brussel Sprouts (7.1/10, very lemony) Burger (8.2/10) Hula Pie (9.4/10)
Dining Nirvana at Jakes
We had another fabulous dinner experience at Jakes. The food and service are superb. Our waiter was very attentive and the bar tender was lots of fun. We look forward to coming here on every visit and this one certainly did not disappoint. Sit on
Decor and food nicely done!
Yesterday (06/05/25) our family of 5 had a lunch at Jakes met our expectations, the server (Dennis) was knowledgeable and full of suggestions, I loved the Palm Heart/Chicken salad. The ocean view was “tough to take” 😉
A Very Nice Lunch in Del Mar
Jake’s Del Mar is a lovely and vibrant restaurant. It is right on the water and offers wonderful views. We sat at the windows overlooking the ocean and watched the people on the beach. The only drawback was an open window at our table let in a quit
Connect with users posting reservations for Jake's Del Mar
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Jake's Del Mar. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Jake's Del Mar at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Jake's Del Mar page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Jake's Del Mar to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Jake's Del Mar!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
