Shades Oceanfront Bistro TASTE THE SUNSHINE! A FAMILY PLACE… WHERE EVERYONE IS WELCOME! Shades is a family owned and operated restaurant located in beautiful Ocean Beach California. We’re lucky enough to have the world’s best customers, and a fabulous view (unfortunately, we can’t take credit for either!) Shades specializes in great food, unique cocktails, generous portions, and friendly service. We have indoor and PATIO SEATING and you’ll find we’re one of the most DOG FRIENDLY restaurants in San Diego! Please feel free to bring your (well behaved) FIDO friend to Shades anytime for a lovely meal. We have something for everyone!
