Great, somewhat creative, riffs on several classic dishes. Very tasty. Amazing waitstaff. Went on Tuesday, so had several “Taco Tuesday” Mexican specials, which integrated nicely with options on the main menu. Mariachi band is rather loud indoors. Look forward to returning for the tasting menu.

We enjoyed a birthday lunch at Pacifica Del Mar. As usual, the food was fantastic and the service impeccable. As San Diego residents since 1982, we are going to sorely miss this restaurant after its closure in the next couple of months. It is a legendary San Diego county institution. We wish the ownership and all staff the very best in the years to come. We want to thank you all!

We had a 530 reservation to celebrate our daughter‘s birthday and they put us in a high top table inside due to the rain outside. My elderly mother was with us and she can’t sit on a high top chair. The hostess worked with us and moved some tables around to accommodate the six of us. The food was absolutely delicious and the drinks spot on.

We had a great waitress - no rush, genuine interest in us. Their mussels!, oysters, scallops, sole, burger - all were excellent. Great wine list. The four of us were impressed.
