Best & Cool Bars in San Diego

"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."

"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."

"The La Jolla outpost of Puesto is a bit smaller than some of the others but packs the same punch in offering quality Mexican food with inventive, modern twists. Lesser-known is that they have recently ramped up their dessert options."

"THE MED evokes the feel of charming villa overlooking the Mediterranean Sea but in the Village of La Jolla.

This is especially evident during morning meals that include everything from lobster Benedict to perfectly-presented acai bowls."

"Enjoy masterful Southern California surf and turf fare with a Spanish twist. Menu highlights include carne asada benedict, Baja shrimp chilaquiles, sea scallops and tiger stripe fig, spiny lobster and wild mushroom, among others. Stunning views of the La Jolla Cove and Pacific Ocean round out this fine dining experience."

It has a 6,000 square-foot venue and its subterranean location gives it an enigmatic feel with a prominently positioned DJ booth where talented local artists spin their beats. They also offer bottle service and also have a VIP lounge."

"This subterranean spot offers ample room to mingle, drink, and dance to the pulsating beat of hip hop. F6ix is known for its DJs, who have the ability to influence the mood and ambiance of the dance floor. Before you know it the music will take hold of you, and all your cares will melt away."
