In La Jolla’s good old summertime, there’s two ways to enjoy monstrous waves: with surfboard skill or at a window table in the Marine Room. It’s high-tide time again. With fury, the huge and foamy water invaders will again rock the restaurant’s picture windows during periods in June, July and August when tides reach their peak, making dining is quite an experience. Projections indicate June 14 could be the big night. The restaurant has been fortified to withstand any devastating breakthroughs floods, like what happened in 1982, which would certainly put a damper on the featured lobster feast. The panoramic view is attractive enough in low tide but there is a certain exhilaration about coming face to face with King Neptune’s wrath — just cross your fingers. This is the 71st year the chefs will be serving the specialties of the house.
