  • Wow...we really had a GREAT night at Tuck Shop. I am so close to giving 5 stars but i'm going to save that for my next visit. We (our little dinner group) went armed with an appetite and having read other YELP reviews for inspiration. We weren't terribly surprised that there was a little wait even on a Wednesday night. But we went into the Reading Room and waited until our table was ready. Just about everything about this restaurant feels good. The location in historic Coronado....very neighborhoody and the converted house coupled with the great decor...everything tells you that you are going to get a great meal. Unpretentious and just plain delicious. If there is any personal issue it is that our waiter let us order a stupid bottle of Pellegrino and didn't talk us into the "plain" water when indeed the "plain" water was the yummiest cucumber water I've ever had. Now personally I am partial to cucumber water...feels very spa-y to me. Can't get enough of it...so it would be my preference. Our waiter David was darling....very sweet and humored us all night...we like to all try a little of everything so we tend to share everything three ways. A manager-ish person who didn't introduce himself asked how we were doing which is always nice...makes it seem like they care...always works for me in any case but my friend thrust the bill and credit cards at him not realizing it wan't David which he took without a hesitation and did as he was told..I laughed..my friend didn't. But to the food. We had the Cheese Curds...OMG!! Enough said...how can you go wrong with beer battered deep fried cheese?? And yet after trying these I realize that any other fried cheese products that have been passed off as such for my whole life were frauds! Pure and simple! I'd been duped. This was heaven in a little ball of high calorie-high fat goodness! On to the chorizo stuffed dates. Simply divine. Wouldn't change a thing. I could eat nothing but an order of that alone! Well...maybe two. Nosh Plate- Most excellent. A Great combination of flavors, textures...the onion jam which was also described as plum jam (I don't know what it was...except delicious) mixed with the lavosh and havarti...Fantastic! There was something with roasted veggies and hummus. It was great. Absolutely nothing to change. Then we shared an entree of fried cod or some kind of fish? Idk...i didn't get it. I don't care for white fish much...i found it bland and a bit dry. My friends raved...and loved it...so based on the rest of the night...i'm sure it was just me. So...never mind... Dessert...shared the molten lava chocolate cake and a blueberry cobbler. The cake was good...mind you we ate every single morsel. But quite frankly...you could get the same thing in any restaurant in town...i wasn't blown away. The cobbler was a bit too doughy-bready for my taste. The bluberries felt and tasted frozen even though I know they weren't because I overheard the story about buying them at the fresh food market from a grower in California or some such whatever....in any case...didn't love it....but quite frankly every single other detail was so fantastic that i'm certain we will go again and again.
