[Crab Catcher Restaurant
Restaurant Review
Perched atop an oceanside bluff in La Jolla, the Crab Catcher offers a spectacular view. The elevated dining room overlooks waves crashing onto La Jolla Cove set before an elegant backdrop of the coastline. Chef Jon Burwell’s impressively extensive menu celebrates the ocean’s bounty with dishes such as king crab-stuffed Hawaiian Ono served with chili-garlic puree and dill-infused buerre blanc; he also showcases his range of talent in select non-seafood dishes such as charbroiled herb-marinated rack of Australian lamb with California peaches, montrachet goat cheese, and roasted shallot pinot noir reduction. The atmosphere, if anyone can take their eyes off the view or the dishes, is comfortable and quaint, almost intentionally unpretentious so as to let the view and cuisine shine.

Title: | Disappointed |
We had a very nice view from our table. Potions were very small and the food was fair to good. The ono and crab stuffing was tasteless. The waiter was inattentive perhaps because he saw our gift certificate. The reservation system worked very well.
