Best Historic Restaurants in Hillcrest

From beginning to the end of our meal, we were extremely satisfied with everything. Scott, our server was the best 👌.

What can I say? This is easily one of the best happy hour spots in San Diego! The ambiance is stunning, the service is outstanding, and the food is absolutely incredible. We had yet another fantastic experience here, this time for an early dinner to celebrate my kid’s birthday. The oysters were incredibly fresh, the Japanese sweet potatoes are a must-try, the fish and chips were amazing—so fresh and moist—and the clam chowder was perfection. The smoked trout dip wasn’t my favorite this time, but it was still a solid appetizer. Our server, Mike, was exceptional—attentive, polite, and spot-on with his food recommendations. We’ll definitely be back, and if you’ve never been to this place, make a reservation now. You can thank me later!

Overall, the experience was excellent. The dry aged steaks are really flavorful. Our server was also very pleasant as she really helped make the experience that much more enjoyable.
