"Having been to Poseidon many times I have to say I was disappointed in both my caesar salad and cioppino dinner. Salad was very so so and the stew was very salty with unopened clams. Mentioning this to the waitress brought only "well sometimes they don't open". Apparently she doesn't know that's not a good thing and her customer service was very lacking in that regard."

"Made reservations a week ahead and still waited 40min. and hostess almost gave our table to someone who had just walked up from the bar!!!! not cool! But we were with good friends and enjoyed cocktails from the bar and good conversation.
In future would get there 15 min early for reservations and watch the tables."

"Good upscale dining in casual atmosphere on the beach in Carlsbad, popular for all age groups. Nice menu, food well prepared, tasty, plentiful portions, dessert and beverage list to complement your meal. Outdoor seating can be enclosed when windy which it was this evening. Service was very good, especially considering our waiter had a group of 13 in his rotation at the same time we sat down. Here from out of town, would come back if in the area."
