San Diego Evaluator Spotlight
Here is a sampling of one of our evaluators in San Siego.
Sunny Days
The sun always seems to shine in San Diego, a mini-metropolis where the dining scene is shaped by an abundance of seasonal produce, a range of high-end luxury hotels and resorts, and a location that attracts high-end chefs turning out globally inspired cuisine. San Diego’s proximity to other standout west coast dining cities, such Los Angeles and San Francisco, further fuels the culinary competition.
As a result of geography, San Diego offers a plethora of ethnic cuisines, including Afghan, Cambodian, Ethiopian, and Laotian, along with Chinese, Italian and Mexican. Well-known, celebrated chefs such as Debora Scott (of the Cohn Restaurant Group’s Indigo Grill and Island Prime), Brian Malarky (Searsucker) and Trey Foshee (George’s California Modern) turn out creative, inspired fare in beautiful settings.
Meanwhile, as a mature vacation destination, San Diego boasts a stellar lineup of high-end resorts and hotels with gourmet eateries. Take, 1500 Ocean at Hotel del Coronado, Grant Grill at the iconic U.S. Grant Hotel and Jeff Jackson’s A.R. Valentien at The Lodge at Torrey Pines. Gourmands who want to experience all that the San Diego dining scene offers, however, must get around town, since there’s something of note in just about every neighborhood – from Market Restaurant and Bar in Delmar to Sushi Ota in Pacific Beach. There’s a link of the famed Nobu in the Gaslamp Quarter, the top-shelf Wine Vault and Bistro in Mission Hills, perennial favorite Mille Fleurs in Rancho Santa Fe and a downtown outpost of Palm Restaurant. With several local restaurant groups operating commanding restaurants, including the Cohn Restaurant Group, the Brigantine Family of Restaurants and Vigilucci’s Restaurant Group, just about every neighborhood of San Diego and the surrounding area has hidden (and not so hidden) restaurant gems.
Of course, service remains a key ingredient in the San Diego dining experience, and its restaurant service scores, as reported by Coyle’s San Diego mystery shoppers, confirm this commitment to fine service. San Diego, in its own quiet way, is rising in stature among America’s great dining cities.
