About The Landings
While listed under a Chinese Restaurant platform, The Landings, located at 2198 Palomar Airport Rd in Carlsbad, CA, USA, is a bar and eatery that offers a distinct experience due to its proximity to the airport. A key feature of The Landings is the availability of both inside (with AC) and outside (with umbrella shades) seating, providing options for different preferences. Notably, the restaurant is also kid-friendly, making it a potential spot for families.
One of the main draws of The Landings is the view it offers of planes taking off and landing, which has been positively mentioned by customers, particularly those with children interested in aviation. The servers are described as attentive, contributing to a positive service experience.
However, feedback on the food has been mixed. While some found the pub burgers tasty, hot, and fresh, others felt that the flavors of the food options were less than expected, especially considering the price point, which was noted to be around $20 per person. Specific issues mentioned include bland flavors and limp textures, such as fries and sandwich bread that were not crispy or toasted enough. The food options were described as promising but needing improvement in flavor.
Parking appears to be a potential limitation, with minimal parking available in a tiny 2-hour free lot. Information on alternative parking options if this lot is full is not provided in the reviews.
Overall, The Landings offers a unique ambiance with its airport views and attentive service. It can be a pleasant spot for those wanting to watch planes, especially families. However, potential visitors should be aware of the mixed reviews regarding food quality and the limited parking situation. There is no information available about any specific promotions at this time.

Customer Reviews
Excellent staff and service. We were there when it opened so not very busy. Food options were promising, but flavors were less than expected. Just not what you'd want or expect for the higher $20per person price. Good, but needs to be better. Also the fries and sandwich bread wasn't crispy or toasted enough. So flavors bland and textures limp. Parking was minimal. There's a tiny 2hr lot for free, but I'm not sure where you'd park if the spots were taken. Inside and outside seating available. Umbrella shades outside. AC inside. Kid friendly. View of the planes were good.
My son wanted to watch planes take off and land, and we got to enjoy some tasty pub burgers out on the patio. Servers were attentive. Food was hot and fresh. Prices not surprising for location. We had a nice lunch at The Landings.
The overall experience is “meh”. The server was confused the entire time. Missing items from our order. We were sat at a folding table out on the patio. Next time I fly out of the Carlsbad airport I’ll just plan time to eat somewhere else.
Just sat outside with a party of four and was ignored for 20 mins before we had to leave. Unfortunate this is the only place to eat at this airport. However been other times, and despite lacking service the ambiance and live music is great.
Flying in, or in the local area, this restaurant serves great food. The brussel sprouts are over the top, and the mahi-mahi is tasty. They have grilled or traditional fried fish tacos, hamburgers and pasta dishes. I've eaten here three times and have been impressed each time.
