The 10 best restaurants in La Jolla
"No dish says more about Nine-Ten Restaurant than its Jamaican jerk pork belly appetizer. This centerpiece pays homage to Executive Chef Jason Knibb’s Jamaican heritage, albeit in elevated form, and the pairing with baby carrots, swiss chard, plantains, and black-eyed peas with sweet potato purée gives it a California feel. It’s a variation on a theme repeated throughout the menu: flavor combinations that make sense, offered in surprising and refined ways."
"This award-winning fine dining restaurant in the Grande Colonial Hotel has a menu dependent on the seasons, as ingredients are locally-sourced. That makes every visit an exciting one. In my mind, you can never go wrong with risotto, a standby on the menu featuring ingredients of the season."
"Another mainstay of La Jolla’s dining scene is Nine-Ten, which in addition to boasting some of the best fine dining in San Diego also has one of the best wine lists."
"Eddie V’s will be serving a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings this year – complete with Brioche Sage Stuffing and hand-whipped potatoes, to name a few!. If you’re not feeling festive, you can always order from the regular menu; no one could blame you for eyeing the Chilean sea bass or lobster tacos at this well-known seafood destination in La Jolla. Both menus will be served from 11:00am-9:00 pm."

"A post shared by Nina Jacobson (@cr1snina) on Aug 20, 2013 at 9:50am PDT. Firehouse American Eatery & Lounge is a local legend in San Diego, having excellent natural lighting accompanied by great architecture for the best beach views. Even the entrance will enthrall the visitors with its Japanese shou sugi ban wood."
"The menu at Firehouse, a short walk from the hotel, puts quirky twists on American classics. Feel like a bacon-fat mac and cheese?. How about mini Chicago dogs?"

"You can simply show up at the gate to enter Prohibition meaning that no prior reservation is needed. It is a club with a 1920’s retro vibe designed for those who would like to step into the Great Gatsby era for an evening. Guest also enjoy the creative and unique cocktail menu such as the “These are not the droids you’re looking for” cocktail featuring tequila, lime, allspice, Averna and apple Jarritos soda."
"The sugar rush should get you started for a night out in the Gaslamp District club scene; if you prefer something chill, the swanky retro cocktail bar Prohibition Lounge is a great way to finish the night."
"Prohibition is designed to provide a relaxing, upscale environment where selected patrons enjoy the evening surrounded by red lighting, dark wood and comfortable leather seating.[Learn more]"
"Seen as the entrance point for control of the west by Europeans, Presidio Park remains a place of history amidst the city of San Diego. Interpreting the entire site for guests is the Junipero Serra Museum which houses many artifacts dealing with Spanish and Mexican heritage, colonization, the beginnings of customs within California and showcasing the lives of those who began it all. The presidio, first built to protect colonists from attack, later took on roles as military headquarters and a central outdoor space to remember history."
"This historic park overlooks Old Town San Diego and is the location of the original mission Presidio. None of the original buildings remain, but the 40-acre park is home to panoramic views over the city, walking trails, and many places to picnic. (Location: Old Town)"
"A historical fort established on May 14, 1769, the Presidio was the first permanent European settlement on the Pacific Coast."
"Yes, we’re talking about that Leo Carillo, who acted in nearly 100 movies between 1927 and 1950. Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park is a small part of his former working rancho and vacation retreat. Kids love the resident peacocks, but there are also multiple historic properties, including the visitors’ center, adobe buildings, a barn, and more."
"Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park is a municipal park that sits in a 27-acre canyon and one of the best things to do in Carlsbad, California. Opened in 2003 and designated as a Historic National Landmark, the park is a former working ranch that was at one time owned by actor Leo Carrillo."
"The Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park was built originally as a weekend retreat for a famous actor. Today, it’s a 27-acre park that’s listed on the US National Register of Historic Places."
"Within Old Town don’t miss Casa de Estudillo, which is one of the few original buildings (many are reproductions), Whaley House and Museum, which is believed to be haunted and Junípero Serra Museum, literally the place where California began. You can get more information here."
"Built in 1825 to house one of San Diego’s earliest families, the building is reputed to be haunted by the ghosts of prior residents."
"Sometimes mom and dad want a bloody Mary or mimosa with breakfast. While on vacation, indulge in a greasy, calorie-laden breakfast with a cocktail at MaryJane’s Diner in the Hard Rock Hotel San Diego. Even their omelets seem imbued with some sort of magic potion (cream, I suspect)."
"Studio Diner is open late-night (round-the-clock from Thursday through Sunday and until midnight during the rest of the week) and set on a working studio lot in the Kearny Mesa business district. The menu features a wide array of great selections, made from only the freshest and highest quality ingredients. Try the turkey Reuben sandwich, T-bone steak and eggs, patty melt or other hearty fare but be sure to save room for Yo Mama's apple pie or decadent carrot cake."
"You'll feel like you've gone back in time in this classic movie-themed diner-style restaurant when you walk into Studio Diner. Their menu consists of American classics and even an "East Coast Specials Menu.". So if you find yourself vacationing in SD (or if you already live here) and can't decide what to eat, take some advice from Guy Fieri himself and try out one of these San Diego restaurants."
"OK, now we're talking genuine diner: all steel and chrome and bay windows. Studio Diner is a true roadside diner, located off the beaten path on the grounds of the Stu Segall studios (Veronica Mars). Refurbished with a movie studio theme, Studio Diner is sleek and slightly upscale, featuring comfort food tweaked ever so slightly, in a delicious way."
"West Steak and Seafood is an intimate fine dining restaurant that has fast become one of Carlsbad’s favored dining venues since opening in 2005. The restaurant’s creative culinary team presents a healthy farm-to-table menu of the highest quality prime steaks, seafood, fresh salads and vegetables from the West Farm and decadent desserts, all served in a casual and relaxed ambiance. Starters include baked blue crab cakes, seared jumbo scallops and crispy lobster spring rolls."
"Only a few miles from West Farm where the restaurant strives to obtain 100 percent of its produce, West Steak Seafood & Spirits "farm to table" approach to quality and freshness shines through. Furthermore, all dishes may be paired with an outstanding wine list!"
"Surf 'n turf, locally farmed produce & festive happy hours in an upscale dining hall with a bar. Address : 4980 Avenida Encinas, Carlsbad, CA 92008, United States"
