Outdoor Romantic Restaurants in San Diego
"This casually elegant restaurant with indoor seating or sidewalk tables on Prospect Street offers a unique seasonal style of California cuisine dictated by the local harvest. Happy hour is offered Monday – Friday from 3:30 – 6:30 pm and features a ½ priced bar food menu, $5 glasses of red and white wine and $2 off all beers. We recommend the Harissa Grilled Shrimp Toast with avocado and the Lamb Meatballs; both are reasons we’d return again."
"Then 9 out of ten chances are you are going to love the Nine-Ten restaurant. To start off, their wine list is one of their best features, and if on a budget, you can visit on Wednesdays when they have half price on selected bottles. Run by Jason Knibb who has worked in the restaurant industry in many countries, the restaurant will deliver the best three and four-course meals in La Jolla."

"Evoking an Asian street market feel, Bang Bang features three separate concepts in one space - one part asian fusion restaurant, one part sushi bar and one part "theatre" which hosts live music, DJs, movies, and is home to the largest disco ball (5.5 feet wide) west of the Mississippi. Guests are transported through Bang Bang via a tunneled staircase entrance reminiscent of a Tokyo subway, complete with Tokyo subway sounds streaming through hidden speakers. Backed by nightlife impresario, Johnny Shockey and LED, Bang Bang offers unparalleled entertainment with some of the hottest up and coming DJs, inviting guests to come for dinner and stay the rest of the night."
"The venue is situated in Gaslamp District and is an Asian inspired place offering an Asian-fusion cuisine which pairs perfectly with the cocktails that they serve. They have three different spaces and have enough space for birthday parties, corporate events and other gatherings. The interiors are stunning, eye-catching and also feature tributes to Bruce Lee, Hello Kitty and Godzilla!"

The menu starts off with appetizers like PEI black mussels in spicy tomato broth and sautéed sweet and sour eggplant and moves on to specialty pasta dishes such as house-made veal cannelloni and the restaurant's signature lasagna. There is also an excellent collection of meat and fish entrees."

They have a wide range of original cookie and ice cream flavors to pick from, and you can even get your sandwich rolled in a topping ranging from brownie bites to Fruity Pebbles. #SpoonTip: This treat tastes better at the beach."
"Not that the classic thin brownie and vanilla ice cream sandwich isn’t great, but sometimes you just need to mix it up. Check out The Baked Bear, an ice cream sandwich shop where you can customize your base (cookies, brownies or donuts), your ice cream flavor and your toppings."
