This place looks like it’s about to impress. Beautiful, upscale vibe with a sleek dining room and a big sports bar up front. Service was solid, and it definitely feels like a “special occasion” kind of spot.
The Wagyu burger, though, was a letdown. Amazing fries, but the burger itself was surprisingly bland—even with grilled onions and cheese. For $26–$28, the “Wagyu” label felt more like marketing than magic. I’ve honestly had more flavorful burgers at In-N-Out (animal style), which isn’t a great look for a high-end burger.
On the bright side, my wife’s risotto was excellent—easy 10/10. The chicken was perfectly cooked, the risotto was rich and flavorful, and even the waitress said it’s one of her favorite dishes (advice I should’ve taken).
Bottom line: great atmosphere, good service, one standout dish—but skip the burger. I wouldn’t go out of my way to return unless someone else was choosing. Street parking only, mostly free if you’re lucky.

Excellent place for a sunset dinner with party vibes! Food is good and the only thing that can be slow is the service because it gets pretty busy. Other than that, a solid pick in Pacific Beach if you’re celebrating something with a larger group. We had a party of 8 and aside from some slight service delays, we enjoyed our time here. I got the Skirt Steak and it was cooked just the way I liked it. The Pork Chop was good too and very filling.

We recently held a celebration of life for my dad at this incredible restaurant, and I can’t imagine a more perfect place to honor him. The stunning ocean view provided a peaceful, uplifting backdrop that truly set the tone for the day.
The staff went above and beyond — warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. They handled everything with professionalism and compassion, making sure we felt supported throughout the entire event.
And the food… absolutely fantastic. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor — our guests are still talking about it!
Big shout out to Robby and team who was incredibly helpful navigating the entire process. They were a pleasure to work with.
I’m so grateful to the entire staff for helping us create such a special and memorable day.

We had breakfast here and it was amazing!! Highly recommend the breakfast burrito! Service was great, a little slow but it’s a great atmosphere to hang out and view the ocean.

Plans changed last minute and needed a restaurant in the Pacific Beach area to celebrate a birthday. Luckily we were able make a reservation on line for a party of 7. The restaurant is loud but not annoyingly so. Our server was very attentive to our needs. The food was DELICIOUS! I would definitely recommend this location for any occasion!!

I recently enjoyed brunch at JRDN, located inside Tower 23 Hotel in Pacific Beach, and the experience was truly memorable. The menu was thoughtfully curated — not overly extensive, which I personally appreciate — yet every dish description sounded inspired and inviting, with creative takes on familiar brunch classics. That balance of focus and creativity set the tone for an excellent meal.
A highlight of the visit was seeing Executive Chef Gabriel Merino, whose cuisine I’ve enjoyed at other locations in San Diego. He graciously visited our table, introduced himself, and walked us through several menu selections. His passion for the cuisine was evident, and his attentiveness elevated the entire dining experience, including a thoughtful check-in and a tasting of a specially created Valentine’s Day passion fruit cheesecake and a beautifully executed panna cotta with cherries — both exceptional.
Having followed Chef Merino’s career, it was especially rewarding to see his continued success reflected in the quality and care coming out of the kitchen. JRDN delivers not only on food but on hospitality, and brunch there is well worth the visit.

We reserved dinner here because it appeared that they had seating right on the beach. We were not disappointed. The views are stunning. Zero complaints. The food and the service was both top notch. We would definitely go back if we visited San Diego again.
