"Visit Bertrand at Mister A’s primarily for the panoramic view of Hillcrest, Midtown, and Downtown. Sip your drink and become one with the city of San Diego. They serve lip-smacking American cuisine with French and Mediterranean influence."

"At last, the undisputed king of Instagrammable restaurants in San Diego!. Zagat said it better than I can:. “An all-day menu of chicken- and egg-based dishes – including fried chicken, chicken sandwiches and deviled eggs (plus a full bar) – are served at this corrugated metal–clad Little Italy counter by the team behind Juniper & Ivy."
"2266 Kettner Blvd, San Diego, CA 92101(619) 795-3299Check Out Their Menu Here$$ | Chicken |Casual. Watch out everyone because the Crack Shack is in town and it doesn’t play around. With the famous chef, Richard Blais at the head of the culinary team each plate is treated with the utmost care and consideration."
"With an all-star chef at the helm, nearly every menu item features free-range, organic chicken marinated to juicy perfection. You’ll also find sides like deviled eggs, Schmaltz fries, and mini biscuits. If you have time, you can hang out and play a game of bocce ball, or pull up to the bar for a craft beer."
"Juniper and Ivy boasts a modern American kitchen and while their dinner and drink menu is on point, it’s their desserts that take the cake!. From their “Yodel” (devil’s cake, white chocolate, hazelnut brittle and hot chocolate) to their “Milk & Honey” (grilled fig, honey ice cream, vanilla panna cotta and poppy seed tuille), they put a swanky, upscale spin on their sweet dishes. Any of their desserts would go very nicely with their “Barreled Cocktail #4” (Scotch, Amaretto, Sweet Vermouth and coffee liqueur)."
"That's right, Juniper + Ivy is owned by the winner of Bravo TV's Top Chef, none other than Richard Blais. If you've seen him on TV you know that Richard is the molecular gastronomical guy - you know, the guy who likes to deconstruct and transform ingredients into new forms. Just saying because if you see things like Corn Dog or Mac N Cheese on the menu you should know upfront that the food they bring out might not exactly match your experience from the past."
"If you love experiencing food at its most creative, renowned chef Richard Blais’ west coast restaurant is the place for you. At Juniper and Ivy, the team never sit back and relax – the menu is constantly changing and the food is constantly surprising. It’s high-end American food with a twist, small plates, and plates of pasta that you can enjoy with a drink and some good conversation."
"– If you are looking to splurge, Sheerwater is the Hotel Del’s formal dining restaurant. It features local seafood, smoked meats, and fresh salads along with a Sunday brunch bar on the weekends."
"Del MarThe view at many oceanfront restaurants comes with a price hike, but only one item, the Lobster Club, is over $20 at this peaceful and seaside stunner with casual, beachy decor and a view that draws eyes toward the horizon. The menu’s a good size, with meat, fish, and vegetarian dishes, plus the famous Hula Pie (macadamia nut ice cream pie with chocolate cookie crust, hot fudge, toasted macadamia nuts, and whipped cream). Save room for a slice..."
"Jake's Del Mar has been popular with residents and visitors for many years. The restaurant is located right on the sand and open daily for lunch, happy hour, and dinner as well as Sunday brunch. Jake's also has a very large selection of gluten-free menu options (though thte kitchen itself is not gluten-free) available at all times."
"Big windows frame views of the ocean for those dining inside but reserve a spot on the patio to get a closer view of the water. The menu is described as California coastal fare, meaning popular dishes like Baja fish tacos share the menu alongside avocado toast, burgers and BBQ ribs."

"The only Italian restaurant I regularly single out as my favorite, chef/owner Francesco Basile serves freshly made fare with a Sicilian’s flair. This perennially packed trattoria, located in a nondescript strip mall, is the kind of neighborhood gem we all want in our neighborhood. In the 12 years I’ve been going there, I’ve never had a disappointing dish."
"In-season vegetables and high quality products are the star at La Mesa’s Antica Trattoria, which has a menu consisting of appetizers, main dishes and pasta dishes."
