Nestled in the Hilton at Harbor Island, **Panorama Bar & Grill** offers a delightful dining experience marked by stunning marina views and a relaxing atmosphere. Customers rave about the restaurant's exceptional service, frequently highlighting the staff's attentiveness and personalized approach. While the menu features a range of modern classics with a twist, including their noteworthy **jumbo shrimp tacos** and refreshing **poke bowl**, patrons also appreciate breakfast options such as the **French toast** and **Grilled Cheese Sandwich**. Despite some mentions of pricing being on the higher side, the consensus is that the quality of the food justifies the expense. Guests have expressed pleasant surprise at the taste and presentation of their dishes, complementing the kitchen's ability to serve food at the right temperature and with vibrant flavors. A standout moment for many is the evening ambiance, particularly at sunset, making it a perfect spot for unwinding. The only slight hiccup reported by some was slower service during peak times; however, management's involvement adds a personal touch that elevates the overall experience. With consistent recommendations and a warm welcome, **Panorama Bar & Grill** has become a hidden gem for both hotel guests and locals seeking a memorable meal in San Diego.

Food was very good. Service was very good. They were not busy. A little pricey for what it was. 75 total for a chicken club with fries, and a miso salmon.

Surprise at the quality of food. Choked on the price a bit. But convenience for hotel guests. Service was top notch with M&M. Took his advice for places to visit and really made for a great day. Thank you! I would go back for the server!

Very pleasant relaxing atmosphere in this restaurant with some great views and located in the Hilton. Nice choice of breakfast items on the menu. Slow service, the lady who took our drink orders told us the server would be right with us... they never showed so she took our order about 10 minutes later. Food served at correct temperature and looked great, tasted just as good. Rounded on by the manager who was very pleasant. Would give 4.5 stars due to lack of server but food and management increased this to 5.

My sister has a Passport Passbook, which led us to this hidden gem—an unexpected surprise at the end of our Sunday afternoon stroll! We stopped by around 2pm and the staff welcomed us warmly as soon as we stepped in, and at first, we were the only ones there. However, it gradually started filling up. I believe the restaurant's hours are incorrectly listed online on Google shows it opens at 5 PM, but it’s actually open from the morning until 9 PM. This might why more people don’t stop by. The place was clean like just remodeled, food was excellent in both quality and quantity, and the prices were reasonable. We ordered the jumbo shrimp taco, cheese pizza, and lemon cheesecake—all were delicious, but the jumbo shrimp taco was my favorite! Located in the Hilton, near the marina with a great view of the yachts, the restaurant has plenty of parking. Since we were already walking, we parked across the street. Definitely coming back with friends!

The service here is above and beyond. This restaurant has a beautiful view during sunset, and the servers and manager are so hospitable. They offered to make me a drink free of charge. I’d go back more often, if I lived closer! I highly recommend trying them if you’re in San Diego, for the service and the fresh poke bowl.

We had breakfast two times while staying in San Diego. It was amazing. I had a wonderful Acai Bowl both times. It was beautifully assembled with fruit, granola, and acai. I will definitely be back. Special thanks to Nea and M&M for spectacular service.

Highly recommend the acai bowl for breakfast. The homemade granola and almond butter with the fresh fruits blended well together. Impressed by the presentation as well. The waiters and host were very nice too!

We stayed here Christmas Eve and Christmas Day due to flight cancellations. The staff is truly amazing. The portions are large. The view is stunning. We enjoyed the yogurt so much we got it the second day.
