Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Spring Valley

"Nine-Ten is all about California style, from the contemporary detailing of the dining room to the creative menu. Every plate is vibrant with fresh produce from small local farms which means that the menu is seasonal, though favorites like Jamaican Jerk Pork Belly (the chef's mother's recipe), braised short ribs and half-baked chocolate cake remain almost year-round. Chef Jason Knibb, who trained under masters such as Wolfgang Puck, has a deft hand with sous-vide cooking."

"Located in the Grande Colonial Hotel on (910) Prospect Street, NINE-TEN is definitely one of the best restaurants in La Jolla for a menu determined by what is in season while still keeping some guest favorites on the menu. It’s perfect for a night out, whether it’s a celebration or just date night. The veteran Executive Chef, Jason Knibb, has been at the helm for the past decade and trained under highly-respected names like Wolfgang Puck."

"The wine selection here is highly various on a global level. Feel like you’re on a vineyard in Spain or gazing at mountains in New Zealand while sampling wines from these lands. If you’re a true wine lover, take note: Wednesdays all bottles are half off!"

"Bertrand at Mr. A's just might be one of the best places to enjoy a skyline view of Downtown San Diego, Coronado, Balboa Park and Point Loma, with the occasional plane landing or taking off from the airport. The restaurant is perpetually voted one of the most romantic places to eat in the city. However, its casual elegance is also welcoming to families and you may leave your jacket and tie at home."

"Best for: the viewLocation: 2550 Fifth Ave, San Diego, CA 92103Menu. Mister A’s boasts one of the best views in San Diego from their 12th floor restaurant. The restaurant welcomes foodies but photography buffs will also enjoy the expansive vista of the San Diego skyline and the Pacific Ocean."

"If enjoying yummy lattes on an upscale, palm-tree surrounded terrace that overlooks shimmering Pacific waves crashing against miles of pristine sandy beaches sounds like the preferred breakfast method to you, then Caroline’s Seaside Cafe is the place to be. Located a stone’s throw north of La Jolla cove, on the UCSD Scripps Institution of Oceanography campus, they serve healthy and creative California-style cuisine made from organic and sustainably sourced ingredients. A hot summer’s day may even lead you to throw a bathing suit on, your shoes off, and caution to the wind as you go for a dip into some irresistibly cool blue water."

"Climb the stairs above a university meeting hall, and you’ll be on the deck of Caroline’s Seaside Cafe. The ocean and pier will be at your feet as you enjoy breakfast or lunch at this informal outdoor cafe. Sandwiches such as the Caprese, Avocado, and Curried Chicken Salad are favorites."

"You’ll find this casual cafe tucked inside the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Open 8 a.m.-3 p.m., the spot serves familiar cafe classics with plenty of outdoor seating overlooking the water."

"Cowboy Star has all the trimmings of an old-school steakhouse—rich wood interiors, (very) dim lighting, and starched white tablecloths. But the drinks are totally new-school, with creative spins on classics like margaritas (made with muddled green chiles) and Old Fashioneds (Benchmark bourbon, simple syrup, Fee Brothers bitters). A stiff cocktail is the perfect match for low-key bar bites like the grilled wagyu skewers and platters of fresh, sweet PNW oysters."

"640 Tenth Ave, San Diego, CA 92101(619) 450-5880Book Your Table for the Best Steak in Town Here$$$ | Steakhouse | Butcher Shop. For every person that says eating meat is inhumane, there are amazing places like Cowboy Star. Their entire concept revolves around serving humanely treated livestock and the freshest seafood with locally grown crops."

"Executive Chef Victor was very approachable, and the atmosphere is very comfortable. The food and flavors rival the best there is!"

"Lolita's opened their first location over 20 years ago in Chula Vista. Since then, this family-owned and operated business has expanded to 5 locations including this one in East Village near PETCO park and the Convention Center. Locals love the hearty favorites such as carne asada fries, carne asada burrio, Tsunami burrito (shrimp and carne asada mix) as well as the tacos."

"So head to Old Town, a festive spot filled with amazing Mexican restaurants, to toast your beach day with margaritas and burritos. Day five – A Bonus Day"
