Seafood-Off the Hook

Name: Off the Hook Seafood Grill

Cuisine: Seafood

Opinion: Great

Area: Encinitas, Carlsbad

About: Located in one of Encinitas's busiest shopping centers with Best Buy and Stater Bros., this is a great place to quickly relax and enjoy a great meal.

What to order: Fish & Chips, Albacore with lemon butter bowl with brown rice

More info: To order from the main menu you choose a type of fish, then a type of oil or flavoring for it to be cooked in, and how you want it served to you (salad, bowl, plate, sandwich). They also offer various other seafood items. The bowl I ordered came with steamed vegetables and steamed rice which went well with my albacore. The fish was fried perfectly and the french fries were delicious in the fish & chips. Definitely try this place for a quick lunch!

Sandwiches- Carlsbad Board & Brew

Name: Board & Brew

Cuisine: American, Sandwiches

Opinion: AMAZING

Area: Carlsbad, Encinitas

About: Because of how nice the workers are and how clean this location is compared to Board & Brew Del Mar, I have to change the rating for the other location to a lower rating.

What to order: Turkado (really try every sandwich, they are all good), no matter what sandwich you get ask for two secret sauces on the side per sandwich. 


More info: A friend and I were craving Board & Brew and I remembered there was a newer location in Carlsbad, so we decided to try it. Coming to this location was the best decision I have made in a long time. Everything is so clean and inviting, while the other Board & Brew seems dirty, and I never feel welcome there. The ladies working at the counter were so kind, it was really refreshing compared to walking into Board & Brew Del Mar, where I feel like I am inconveniencing the workers by ordering a sandwich. Also the food seems a lot more fresh and better prepared. The shame is that this restaurant isn't located next to the beach, but I am sure it still receives a lot of business from the office buildings in the area.


The secret sauce has a sweet & sour taste, which is a little bit different but goes well on any sandwich.
