Best Restaurants with Bar Seating in Sorrento Valley

Although I saw great reviews on Open Table, I was a bit skeptical, based on the location & restaurant name. However, The Tavern delivered. It is a funky spot in Solana Beach...sort of a warmup spot for the bar/entertainment next door (which was packed - tickets sold in advance). Our waiter, Juan, was well versed on the menu and made great suggestions. My wife had the Scallops, which she loved. I ordered the Italian Sausage Pappardelle...Juan suggested adding Linguine ... and I did. It was excellent. The dessert - if you're into dessert...the Reese's Peanut Butter Pie...off the charts. Plenty big for sharing.

Such a great dinner w d venue! Loved it all! Arugula and Steak! Mashed Potatoes, Cosmo . So fresh and super fun environment

Mackenzie was our server today. She was so friendly. Asked us all about our day and recognized us as regulars and asked about our retirement. We really appreciated her service! All of the staff who recognize us go out of their way to come and say Hi. Kyle, RJ, Brandon, Lauren, Meg, they always welcome us with a smile and great service.
