It has taken me a while to figure out exactly how I wanted to review this place. We were in Del Mar for the day and my friend was craving pizza. Sadly, her favorite pizza place was undergoing a refurbishment, so we decided to give Pacifca Del Mar a shot.
I wasn't very hungry so figured I'd get a cocktail and something small to eat. I ordered a pineapple chipotle margarita and my fella ordered a beer. A few minutes later, our server arrived with two beers (we only ordered one) and as she was placing it on our table in front of me (I didn't order beer) she spilled it... ALL OVER ME! As it was still spilling out all over me she decided the best thing to say (instead of "I'm sorry" and continuing to help clean up the mess) was "at least I spilled on the person who wanted a shower." Um, excuse me, what?? My fella picked up the beer bottle that was still gushing beer all over me, since no one else seemed to think to do that. I was in utter shock from the whole incident. I get that our server was embarrassed (I was pretty mortified as well) or whatever, but what the heck was she thinking.
The manager rushed over and apologized and sent over some club soda to help clean up my clothes. He also told us he would cover our bill for the inconvenience. I said ok, and stuck around to finish our food and drinks.
Our server continued her awkward ways by continuing to make uncomfortable references to spilling the beer all over me without sounding apologetic in any way. Insult to injury...I'm really easygoing, but it was really starting to bug me after a while.
After all was said and done, the food wasn't very good, but I appreciate the effort, after the fact, that the manager and staff tried to make amends, but Great view, but there isn't much that would make me want to return here.
