- CCelinavipSan Diego •59 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoReservation is as easy and there was no wait, ambience was perfect, food was great and service was excellent. Three of us had the prime rib (very tasty and cooked to perfection), one had the mahi mahi and loved it, and the other one had a vegan dish and very happy with it. We shared the calamari and Brussels sprouts and had the hula pie, peanut butter torte, pumpkin pie - all excellent. Thank you for staying open for Thanksgiving.More infoJake's Del MarPrice: Moderate• American• Del Mar•4.8
- VViSan Diego •10 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 21, 2024I love the big dining room upstairs where I can look out to the ocean. Also, I used the ramp at the back for the first time because, at 85, the stairs are getting treacherous for me. I love Ki's!More infoKi's RestaurantPrice: Moderate• Californian• Cardiff By The Sea•4.7
- MMarilynSan Diego •17 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 21, 2024My girlfriend and I go there a lot. We usually split the Caesar salad, which is the best ever Caesar! Today we split the avocado toast. It was pretty bland for our taste. We usually think of avocado toast as having some sort of little kick, but this had none. Salt and pepper helped a little, then we asked for some aoli, which was chipotle mayo, which also helped. But we both decided that we wouldn’t order it again.More infoWaverly Restaurant & LoungePrice: Expensive• American• Encinitas•4.6
