Spike Africa's Fresh Fish Bar & GrillJuly 31, 2017Free Butterscotch Pudding with FourSquare check in.
GusJune 11, 2015Fantastic seafood place in downtown! Tuna Poke is a healthy and delicious fish snack option! Great for a happy hour too!
Heather CieslakFebruary 26, 2015They always have the Stone "enjoy by" on tap. You must save room for dessert- butterscotch sea salt and vanilla pudding.
I would say that the fish ceviche was average but the guac that came with it was amazing. The fish of the day was really good but the lobster mac wasn't up to par. Service was excellent!
Joseph BulgerApril 6, 2013Kristen's an excellent bartender... superb service. Works Tues thru Sat. Poke with seaweed, oysters Rock with bacon, clam chowder (no fillers) all very very good. Oh... Africa is Spike's last name.
Jess RSeptember 12, 2015Great happy hour; go for a good time. Dollar oysters, cheap beers, margaritas, sangria. If I were from here I'd go once weekly!
Serious EatsFebruary 6, 2014More into beef than seafood? They serve a tasty bacon cheeseburger that's surprisingly satisfying for a seafood restaurant.
Conrad & Jenn R.March 13, 2015Good happy hour snacks. Free yelp check-in offer. Don't forget the butterscotch pudding.
Barbara ElizabethJune 1, 2014The clam chowder is great. The simmer is more like the skimper. 1 scallop, 2 shrimp, a few small pieces of fish and some unopened mussels. Not worth the hefty price tag. But definitely get the chowdah
Kristi NavarreFebruary 25, 2016Great mussels, butterscotch pudding unbelievably good! Good atmosphere, friendly bartenders.
DenetteApril 14, 2014Stopped in on a food tour. Yummy ceviche and guac. Housemade chips. Great margarita!
Lidisset ViartAugust 11, 2014BBQ Mahi Mahi and sweet potato mash is delish... cole slaw side is also amazing
Jenni ToppMarch 16, 2013Service is great. Oysters are only a $1 during happy hour and delicious. Happy hour is a good deal, otherwise a bit pricey.
Pulled Pork Tacos and Bacon Wrapped Swordfish are the bomb.
Greg KellyJuly 29, 2013Great Mahi-Mahi tacos for $4 during happy hour 3:30 - 6:30. Really good lobster roll too.
Melonie GallegosMarch 13, 2013Happy hour starts early ends late enough: 3:30-6:30pm. Try the ceviche for half off.
Sarah PasquesiNovember 23, 2014BBQ mango mahi mahi was good. The service was sub par. It took the waiter 30 minutes to get around to taking our order after getting drinks and he forgot to put in the order for one of our appetizers.
Jonathan ZJuly 25, 2017Staff are super friendly. Avoid the Louisiana gulf oysters. No flavor whatsoever.

Brett CopelandNovember 21, 2015Not. Good. My fish was ice cold in the center, my wife ended up sick a few hours after eating hers. Poor beer selection for San Diego. Only plus was good service.
- DmitrySeptember 19, 2013Креветок, толком нет, несмотря на то, что это рыбный ресторан! Блюдо из креветок из меню, скорее макароны с 4 креветками!Порции маленькие очень!
