From the OpenTable editors: Sweeping water views and creative seafood, like everything-crusted ahi and a lobster and fontina BLT, set this bayside charmer apart. Not to mention a shaded patio, complete with heaters and a fireplace, which might be the prettiest outdoor dining space on Harbor Island.

Executive chef: Deborah Scott

    I think the quality of the food was moderate at best. I had expected a fine dining experience. The desserts were great! I'd rate them 9/10. Location is great, too. We were there for dinner ,FYI . The service was excellent, and our server did his best to accommodate us.

    With family visiting from back East, C-Level was the ideal spot to show off our beautiful San Diego Bay and the city skyline. The food and service there have always been very nice and the food, while a bit over priced offers a good variety for all tastes. Service is always friendly and prompt. Great place to take those out of towners who like patio dining.

    I took my cousin from the Midwest and my granddaughter to restaurant week. We both had chicken piccata. I had lobster bisque which was fantastic. The chicken was also top notch with generous portions of mashed potatoes and broccoli. My granddaughter is vegan.. She had the portobello sandwich with adjustments which were cheerfully and accurately carried out. I would definitely recommend CLevel to anyone. The ambience as darkness fell and the colorful city skyline lit up added to our enjoyment. My only note is the large (12?) table near us was quite noisy—certainly not within control of the restaurant.
