We dined here in the early afternoon over the weekend. The restaurant was reasonably clean, and the serving staff were friendly and personable. The food arrived in good time and was fine in general, though nothing spectacular. There was also a huge selection of freshly squeezed juices and smoothies on offer, which we didn't try, but it was nice to see as an option.Overall, I recommend giving this place a shot!

ki's has always been one of my favorite spots in san diego, the food never disappoints and the atmosphere is so nice overlooking the beach. I love taking people who visit san diego here. the mondo burrito is a staple and one of my top breakfast burritos. they have great self serve sauce options too which is nice. the pesto chicken sandwich and the ahi wrap are also great lunch options.

My wife and 3 other couples ate here last night after playing pickleball! The food, drinks, appetizers were all amazing! The service was fabulous! Our server is the best server on the plant!!!The menu is varied so everyone was able to choose something delicious! Their mocktails are fabulous! Their specials were super good! The parking was easy and the view of the ocean was breathtaking! We will go back again for sure!!!

Came here on a Monday in June for lunch and the parking lot was jam packed! Summers are busy I guess. If you can, bike or walk here in the summers. Parking is very tough. Food is still good and the service staff here are kind and patient.

Very cute beach spot, perfect for a break from the beach before a return to the ocean or you can do take out (I think they might do beach-side delivery too). Great grilled veggie sandwich!

I love that I chose this place for an early breakfast during a weekend stay in Encinitas! You get a beautiful view of the water/beach if you're able to snag a table right by the window. My bf and I arrived at about 8:45 am on a Sunday and there weren't that many people. I wasn't sure how it'd be early in the morning since I expected some sort of crowd especially it was a holiday weekend.You order at the counter and then take your number and go upstairs to the tables. I ordered the Tofu Scramble Bowl ($11.25 - Tofu, green peppers, tomatoes and onions sauteed in tamari, spices, and olive oil served over breakfast potatoes, fresh spinach and organic black beans.) But I actually subbed the breakfast potatoes for quinoa since I saw quinoa is offered in another breakfast item. This was so delicious! I'm happy they had no issue with doing quinoa instead. It all paired wonderfully and the presentation of the bowl was on point for me. There was a good amount of tofu and I loved that they were super firm and not crumbling. I was able to finish the entire bowl and didn't feel extremely full afterwards. (bc it was healthy lol)My bf ordered the Carne Asada Breakfast Bowl ($13.50 - Two Eggs (ordered over easy), Carne Asada, Pico de Gallo, jack cheese, jicama slaw guacamole, breakfast potatoes, organic beans, cilantro and Chipotle Mayonnaise) and Açai Fruit Smoothie ($9.50 - Açai, Fresh Apple, Bananas and Strawberries.) I thought the presentation of his bowl was also well constructed (obviously I'm a sucker for how food appears) and he said everything was also delicious. The smoothie tasted just like his favorite-- strawberry banana smoothies!We were unaware of the self serve station inside where they had utensils, napkins, sauces, to-go boxes, water/water cups, etc. and a worker let us know that we can grab everything we needed there. Very convenient! Never needing to wait on your waiter.There are also heaters over these tables by the windows in case it's a little chilly outside. The employees were very nice and we enjoyed our morning here. As soon as it started getting to 9:45 AM and on, we watched more and more people head inside so I'm glad we came at a decent time closer to opening.

Came down to visit some friends who live nearby. This was my first time here, so I was looking forward to trying a new place. Such a cool laid back resto!The menu on the wall was a bit overwhelming at first, but then I saw their paper menu and took a glance at the many selections. I placed my order and paid at the counter. Our party of 4 headed upstairs to the enclosed patio where you can get your silverware, napkins, condiments, etc. Two of us each had the Fajita Bowl (with carnitas), one had the California Grill Sandwich (with fries), and the other had Santa Fe Salmon Wrap. The portions were decent, and everything tasted wonderful with no complaints! The bonus, however, was having this wonderful meal with great friends while enjoying the beautiful view of the ocean!Thanks Ki! Till next time...

We went for the first time for dinner last night (usually I go for breakfast or lunch), service, food and relaxed pace was wonderful!! The manager at the front podium was so nice (sorry forgot to ask your name). Ava was our server and she was attentive, friendly, gave great advice as to what to order and was just super!! And I have to mention the great view too!!! They had a band last night that was good too. We had a couple drinks (top notch bartender!!), 2 appetizers, the seasonal flatbread (yum!) and the crispy cauliflower (yum yum!) after that we split the catch of the day which was an amazing halibut! We of course couldn't leave the meal without dessert and we had the amazing lemon olive oil cake! WOW!!! Thank you all for making our birthdays so special!!
