Top 10 Restaurants in La Jolla Shores | So Diego Tours
"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."
"Situated in the Grande Colonial Hotel, diners immediately notice the chic decor as they walk into NINE-TEN. Offering an elegant dining experience, this beloved local restaurant foc..."
"We had an absolutely amazing experience celebrating our 25th anniversary @ Eddie V’s. The service was excellent!. Rose petals on our table, complimentary..."
"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."
"This is a great choice for a casual lunch, family dinner or group outing. Puesto is an artisanal Mexican La Jolla restaurant that offers a little more of a full-service feeling. The colorful atmosphere keeps things fun and cosmopolitan, and the menu is a great combo of light starters and classic tacos."
"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."
"However, San Diego County is home to a staggering 125 craft breweries. Heavy hitters include Stone Brewing Co., Modern Times, Pizza Port, Bellast Point Brewing Company, AleSmith Brewing, Green Flash and Karl Strauss. From sours to stouts, there’s something for every beer aficionado."
"The Setting Sun Sake Tasting Room is offering to-go bottles and growlers and dine-in service Tuesday - Saturday. Delivery available Tuesday-Thursday in San Diego (order here) or shipping to homes further away (order here)."
"Hoppy days are ahead at Pacific Beach AleHouse, which will officially open for patio dining on Saturday, January 30th, ready to serve up toothsome bites and frothy brews on their scenic patios. Be sure to order their Jumbo Bavarian Pretzel paired with one of the location’s fresh house brews."
"This brewery/restaurant offers up brunch, lunch and dinner at its restaurant, which also gives its patrons a stellar glimpse of the Pacific Ocean. PB Alehouse serves a variety of different burgers, sandwiches, flat breads, salads and tacos. There’s really something for everyone."
"Nestled in the coastal hills of North County San Diego, Escondido is a “hidden” gem. Escondido is a combination of rural and city, that has parks, lakes and a vibrant center. The diversity of the area creates openings for interesting and fun things for families to do."
"Where: 320 North BroadwayThere’s no reason a vacation can’t include some education at the same time. Inspire your children through exploration and experimentation at this hands-on museum. Science, arts, and world cultures are presented in imaginative exhibitions."
"Since June 2004, the USS Midway Museum has preserved the historic USS Midway, the longest-serving aircraft carrier in the 20th century. Aboard, you get access to areas not often granted to civilians, including the crew’s sleeping quarters, the engine room, the ship’s jail and the primary flight control room. Midway sailors narrate the self-guided audio tour, and you can learn even more by engaging the volunteer docents, many of whom are military veterans and are among the 225,000 sailors who were active during the ship’s historical span."
"This 971-foot-long floating museum is the best way to learn about and honor San Diego's significant naval community. The decommissioned aircraft carrier is one of the most popular attractions in San Diego. Visitors can get a taste of navy life by visiting the plane-packed flight deck, sprawling hangar bay, mess hall, and berthing."
"Now operating as a museum located in downtown San Diego, the USS Midway used to be an aircraft carrier in the 1900s. It was the United States’ longest-serving naval aircraft carrier, having served from 1945 to 1992, and has seen over 200,000 sailors aboard during its time."
"The Chinese Historical Museum displays Chinese-American art, culture and history. Housed in a restored mission-style building, exhibits include miniature models, historic photographs and rare artifacts related to the heritage of San Diego’s Chinese community. *Small donation requested."
"One of them is neon signs, a trend we covered in our last blog post. People like taking photographs of words, and those pictures tend to do well on Instagram. Pair that with neon and a good pun, stir lightly, and wait for social media to ignite."
"This neighborhood hangout serves sweet and savory mini pies, coffee and craft beer all in one space. Cauldron Ice Cream – 4646 Convoy Street"
"The park was named after Christopher (Kit) Carson, the famous scout who guided Captain John C. Fremont over the Sierra Nevada Mountains during a government exploration expedition. The City of Escondido acquired the land for its largest regional park from the City of San Diego in 1967. Address:3333 Bear Valley Parkway, Escondido, CA 92025"
"Study humankind at the San Diego Museum of Man, marvel at aeronautic engineering in the San Diego Air and Space Museum, then catch your breath in the Botanical Building. Head up to North Park for happy hour at Polite Provisions; its beautiful cocktail lounge may hook you up with some small plates if you’re hungry. Save the appetite, though—North Park’s Restaurant Row is nearby."
"The lath building was built for the 1915-1916 Exposition and now houses over 2100 tropical plants and palms (I recommend it if you like orchids). It is open every day except for Thursdays and one of the most photographed spots in San Diego. You can picnic on the grassy areas in front of it, too."
