Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Del Mar

Manager Lisa was the best, most service-oriented manager I have ever seen. She kicked in when service was a bit slow, checked in on us every so often, comped us a drink when we waited a bit too long for our order, and just made a slow evening into a spectacular one. A great manager. Well done Lisa!

The fresh Ahi tuna was a bit drowned in mayo. I could sort of taste the freshness and subtle flavor but it was a shame to drown it in ingredients that should be carefully measured. The service was amazing! The drone of military jets was unexpected and startling.

Service was wonderful, beautiful setting. Food was just OK, we had the bread with hummus, which was a little heavy, the cauliflower bowl had too much lettuce and not enough vegetable.

Great place to watch sports for sure. Cocktails and beer selection is fantastic! We had crab cakes for an appetizer, outstanding. The shrimp and grits is very authentic New Orleans style. Great burger too. We are adding this to our rotation.

The food was very good and the cocktails were delicious. Very friendly staff and nice, relaxing atmosphere .
