- CCarolineGoldSan Diego •10 reviews5.0Dined on 11 Oct 2026We had a 530 reservation to celebrate our daughter‘s birthday and they put us in a high top table inside due to the rain outside. My elderly mother was with us and she can’t sit on a high top chair. The hostess worked with us and moved some tables around to accommodate the six of us. The food was absolutely delicious and the drinks spot on.More infoWaverly Restaurant & Lounge$$$$• American• Encinitas•4.7
