Best Cosy Restaurants in Mission Bay

Fabulous food! Loved the Scampi and the Affogato for dessert. Definitely will go again next time I visit San Diego

It takes a lot for me to be impressed on every level but I cannot say enough good things about Elvira. From the outstanding service to the knowledgeable staff to the quality of the food and drinks. Wow! We were started off by a great male (manager maybe?) who was super thorough with my food allergies and knew everything about the menu. I had: - the vegan caccio Pepe with gluten free pasta- WHICH IS HOMEMADE and so so good. The best gf pasta I’ve had in San Diego. - vegan mozzarella caprese salad was also so good for being vegan. Super fresh, flavorful tomatoes. - gluten free pizza: the crust is homemade and so realistic tasting/texture that it’s scary! Haha. I had vegan cheese also on that- you could hardly tell drinks: the Italian red wines were delicious. Also had a few drinks from the cocktail menu: the fig jam mezcal cocktail (What a COMBO! ♥️) as well as the white Negroni YUM

My French Onion Soup, made GF for me, was the best I have ever had. The avocado, crab, and Ahi stack was a bit disappointing. On the whole we all enjoyed our time there.

Jacob was an excellent waiter. He welcomed us and took great care of us. It was my partner’s bday and he made sure we had a good experience and even brought out dessert for her. Loved the view and vibes! It was a bit windy but the heaters and nice sun was nice.

We went to Dockside 1953 to celebrate our 55th wedding anniversary. We wanted to sit outside by the bay, but the weather was chilly. We asked for a table with a fire pit. We were given that, and when I told Kelley (our server) that we tended to be cold, she brought over an additional heater and gave us both blankets! We enjoyed our delicious dinner warm and comfortable. Kelley was very conscientious and friendly, and took great care of us during our stay. We had a wonderful dinner and a fantastic evening. Thanks!
