The service could have been better. Once seated our waitress forgot we were there. The risotto I ordered was subpar and was garnished with a closed flower from a squash plant, and not made well. My husband’s BLT looked good but the food did not match the atmosphere. The food was not worth the high prices. I would not recommend.

Amazing place for lunch while visiting the Comic-Con museum (or any other museum in this museum filled area!)

Had an amazing experience. Sat in the back of the restaurant facing the garden/organ. Our waiter had an amazing humor that brightened our day and the food was as always amazing. Never have had a bad dish here.

The Mother’s Day Prado Brunch. The brunch here is one of the best. I dare say that it is a bit of a hidden gem, as the Prado only does brunches twice a year: once for Easter, and once for Mother’s Day. I’ve been to a number of different brunch places, and I have to say that Prado does it very well. The selection is fantastic, with a variety of meats, seafood, fruits, salads, vegetables. All very fresh, and all very tasty. I have spent more on brunches that were no where near as good. You would be really hard pressed to find a better brunch in San Diego. Well done Prado! Plus, afterwards, you can enjoy walking around Balboa Park and enjoying the various art shops and nature trails.

Ate here with a party of 5 for lunch when they first opened at 11:30am on a Saturday. They can get filled up pretty quick (there were no reservations available when we looked the week before), so we showed up before they opened to be first in line. It was definitely worth it, because everything was delicious. The atmosphere inside is really cool – a fun intermixing of Spanish, Mexican, and San Diego style and decor. We shared the confit potatoes and calamari fries for appetizers. The calamari fries were excellent with a slight kick, and the potatoes came with a vibrant chimichurri that really made the dish. I ordered the paella, which was excellent. It was a perfectly sized portion filled to the brim with mussels, scallops, fish, shrimp, chorizo, and chicken. We shared three desserts at the table, all of which were delightful. The flan was dreamily creamy with a perfectly sweet caramel; the piña colada crème brûlée was very unique and had a beautiful harmony of flavors, and the German chocolate cake was solid. The server was also very friendly and attentive. I would love to come back again sometime!

Really good food. I had the risotto which was delicious! The service was really good with very attentive staff and the atmosphere was very casual and I could have sat there all day, but unfortunately had a plane to catch! Highly recommended. Balboa Park is just out of this world

It was a perfect lunch. Started off with some calamari. Had a delicious cocktail and a very tasty sandwich, and ended with the perfect flan. It was so good. The waitress was energetic and very attentive the entire time. Everything was just perfect. I like that this restaurant has the option to reserve a table ahead of time. Walked right in. Balboa Park is a busy area, so if you make a reservation, give yourself some time to look for parking.

We visited Prado for Easter when they served what they called a “Champagne Brunch”, essentially an all you can eat buffet with options ranging from eggs to premium steak. The food was absolutely delicious, in particular the jumbo shrimp cocktail and the oysters, and the service was pretty good. The restaurant is in a nice property with a Spanish villa vibe in the heart of Balboa Park museum alley.
