Best & Cool Bars in Coronado

"San Diego has several stellar hotel restaurants and this is one of them. Executive Jason Knibb is a favorite of both the food-obsessed and other local chefs for his precise and never pretentious California cuisine."

"Located near La Jolla Cove, guests in this restaurant are always pleased to find picturesque views while indulging, and some fine dishes. For starters, they have a crab and corn chowder, Maine lobster bisque, and a chilled Gulf shrimp cocktail style of soup. In addition, there are three variants of sandwiches and various authentic local entrees."

"in the barSpecials: Half-shell oyster specials, other food, and drink discounts, including on cocktails and wines by the glass at happy hourOcean View: YesWhy Go: High-end steak and seafood with great views that are popular for special occasions and date nights Neighborhood: Village of La JollaAddress: 1270 Prospect Street, La Jolla, CA 92037"

"Sure, La Jolla’s beachside location lends itself to upscale dining, cliffside restaurants and seafood-centric menus, but that doesn’t mean it’s not home to great tacos, too. At Puesto, the three Adler brothers pack hand-pressed blue-corn tortillas with crispy melted cheese, garlic-braised seasonal veggies, al pastor, cactus and even lobster and filet mignon. It’s one of the area’s most colorful settings—decorated with neon murals and Mexican tiles—and sports a handful of vibrant and fun margaritas to match."

"This is a great choice for a casual lunch, family dinner or group outing. Puesto is an artisanal Mexican La Jolla restaurant that offers a little more of a full-service feeling. The colorful atmosphere keeps things fun and cosmopolitan, and the menu is a great combo of light starters and classic tacos."

"You may not be able to fly to Ireland at any given moment, but that’s no problem; you can always walk into Hennessy’s pub to grab a pint. Plus, with happy hour between 4 and 7 pm from Monday and Friday, you can enjoy good deals, as well as authentic atmosphere."

"I loved Carnitas Snack Shack when it was a hole in the wall in a not-so-glamorous section of town. It was so good that word soon got out and Carnitas Snack Shack expanded, then contracted, and now has the ideal location right on the Embarcadero on the bay. Pork-centric and Farm-to-Table, Carnitas Snack Shack is foodie paradise."

"What is it: Not simply a bar and restaurant, but a great hang-out with a big backyard. Why go: Three very convincing reasons: chunky pork sandwiches, craft beer and tacos. Grab your choice snacks from the shack window, or pull up a chair inside the laidback venue."

"Hanis Cavin wildly popular counter-service spot is revered for its pork sandwiches and craft beer. While the menu changes daily their signature triple threat pork sandwich, shack fries and carnitas tacos are probably its three most famous features."

"You’ll find this local favorite south of the village, in La Jolla’s seaside neighborhood of Bird Rock just a couple blocks from the ocean. This hidden gem has been around for over 12 years and serves breakfast on Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 am – 3:00 pm; we recommend making a reservation for weekend brunch. They have a Mexican inspired menu and two of our favorites are the Relleno & Eggs, a pasilla pepper stuffed with pulled pork, crema, Mexican salsa, and queso fresco served with corn tortillas or the Carne Asada Benedict, an English muffin topped with carne asada, avocado, cilantro, and hollandaise served with breakfast potatoes."

"Saturday and SundaySpecials: Street tacos and sliders, 2 for $8.50 or 3 for $10.50 | $6.50 mules, mojitos, margaritas and house wine | other food and drink specialsOcean View: NoWhy Go: Beaumont’s is popular with locals in Bird Rock as you can sit anywhere in the restaurant (main dining room, covered patio or bar) to enjoy a mellow La Jolla happy hourNeighborhood: Bird RockAddress: 5662 La Jolla Blvd."

"Located in sleepy Bird Rock, Beaumont's Eatery is loved by locals as an upscale-casual gathering spot for its seasonal menu, craft cocktails and live music. The contemporary interior of the restaurant features rich colors and bright accents. It's a good place to go with friends for share plates (like Korean street tacos, wild boar sausage flatbreads and more)."

"Amidst the bars and greasy food in the Gaslamp, Café 21 serves farm-to-table breakfast with a twist. If you’re into drinking your breakfast, there’s a variety of ginormous Bloody Mary's on the menu that could be entire meals themselves, but the omelettes are really where it’s at. They’re baked in cast-iron skillets and full of protein like prosciutto, lamb, short ribs, and beet-cured salmon."

"Located about 1.5 miles away from Qualcomm Stadium, Cafe 21 is a great option for any reason. This extremely popular restaurant is Turkish and if you don't order the baklava... well, let's just say you should."

"The Trails Neighborhood Eatery is an unassuming diner located in east San Diego County near Mission Trails Regional Park. If it weren’t for the line of customers out the door, it might be hard to find, but once inside the delightful aroma of freshly made bacon and brewing coffee paint a different picture. Since appearing on the Food Network’s Restaurant Impossible, this café has grown exponentially in popularity."

"The lath building was built for the 1915-1916 Exposition and now houses over 2100 tropical plants and palms (I recommend it if you like orchids). It is open every day except for Thursdays and one of the most photographed spots in San Diego. You can picnic on the grassy areas in front of it, too."

"The Botanical Building houses more than 2,000 tropical plants. Capturing the wood structure with the lily pond in front is one of the most photographed sections of Balboa Park."
