The Best Things To Do In La Jolla, Plus Where To Eat And Stay
"NINE-TEN offers an "Evolving California Cuisine" menu dictated by fresh products discovered during daily excursions to local artisan providers. Go for breakfast, lunch or dinner and sit inside the casually elegant interior or people watch from pet-friendly tables outside on Prospect Street. NINE-TEN has a kids menu for young diners featuring PB&Js, mac and cheese as well as other favorites."

"Love can make you feel like your head’s in the clouds as can the stellar view of the skyline and landing planes from this Bankers Hill classic. That’s probably why it's been the site of so many marriage proposals, Valentine’s dates, and special celebrations since it opened decades ago and especially since it was reimagined by owner Bertrand Hug in 2000. The upscale American menu features standbys like pork chops and duck breasts in their most classic forms as well as modern takes on dishes like swordfish and lamb with smoked date jam."
"Located on the top floor of a tall building in Banker’s Hill, Mister A’s undoubtedly has one of the best views of San Diego. The setting and pricing reflect a formal dining atmosphere, but their casual happy hour is reasonably priced and frequently tops “The Best Happy Hour in San Diego” lists."
"A little ways outside of downtown, there’s nothing that compares to the view of Mister A’s. Big ol’ jet airliners will ride past on approach and departure, using the ocean as backdrop with the city skyline showing off its wares. The hype is real, with the food and drinks perfecting the tableau."
"Mission BayThe bay view from the patio at this upscale (yet laid-back) restaurant located within Paradise Point Resort in Mission Bay is beautiful any time of day, but you get the best return on your investment during sunset. With plentiful parking and easy access to the sand (and fire pits), you can easily turn a dinner or happy hour visit into multiple hours of fun and relaxation, at no extra charge."
"This is a bit of a trek for me, but I will make the drive just to eat here. This spot is on the rooftop of a building in La Jolla & it is just such a mellow spot to brunch. If you’re lucky, there may even be an aerial yoga class going on while you eat."
"Vegan and vegetarian food are served in a beautiful rooftop environment at Trilogy Sanctuary. Come for a yoga class and make sure to stay for the food afterwards."
"If you’re wanting a vegetarian meal or snack, take a look at the menu from The Burger Den in Teralta East."
"We pride ourselves on our “made-from-scratch” recipes, where seasonal ingredients, unique presentation and cooking with intent transform long-loved classics into newly-loved favorites.We view the great maple tree as our emblematic commitment to quality,...Mehr"
"I often point out that a perk of staying in the beachfront La Jolla hotels is access to the adjacent Kellogg Park. It’s steps from the sand of La Jolla Shores Beach but also has a large grassy area for picnics, yoga, pocket kites, and some outdoor park fun. It will soon be even more interesting when “The Map of the Grand Canyons of La Jolla Educational Plaza” (a.k.a “The Map”) is finished."
"T his lovely little playground provides a nice space for kids to run and play steps away from La Jolla Shores Beach. Bring a picnic (or take away from one of the nearby La Jolla Shores restaurants like the Cheese Shop) and even exercise on the huge grassy area. This playground perfect for the times that you want to go to the beach and not without the sand."
"This is a little park lining the back of La Jolla Shores Beach. It’s very family-friendly due to its vast green space, playground and restroom & shower facilities. The playground is quite new, with one area geared towards babies and toddlers and another part made for older children."
"The best family-friendly resort in San Diego, sprawling Paradise Point sits on a small island in Mission Bay, wrapped in white sand beaches. The property features 5 heated, outdoor swimming pools (1 for adults only), a private marina with watersports (paddleboards, kayaks, jet skis, sailboats, and more), and plenty of kid-friendly amenities, including firepits for s’mores, complimentary lawn games, a kids’ club, and much more. Spacious rooms, suites, and bungalows sleep families of up to 5, all with private patios or balconies, most with views of the garden, lagoon, or bay."
"Paradise Point is a San Diego resort and spa where it is both beautiful and relaxing to explore as it receives one of their huge variety of pampering services. With beautiful pools and gardens full of natural beauty, you will want to stay at this San Diego spa resort for weeks. Located on an island in Mission Bay, the resort itself spans 44 acres and offers amenities such as a golf course, five pools, bonfire pits, and a marina."
"Standing on a lush, private island in Mission Bay, this beautiful resort features a full-service spa and tropical gardens. SeaWorld San Diego is just 5 minutes drive away. A spacious patio, hardwood floors and a marble bathroom are found in each exotic room of Paradise Point Resort & Spa."
