Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Mission Bay

We met up with old friends at Dockside1953 for an anniversary celebration. The atmosphere around the fire pit table was impressive and kept us warm during the evening. The service was excellent and not rushed at all. Our server was always on cue when pouring our wines and bringing the next drink. The food was outstanding. Both my friend and I had the filet mignon. We're both meat connoisseurs, and the steak here was the best I've had at any restaurant (or elsewhere for that matter). My buddy is a San Diego resident (I'm from Canada), and he'd never eaten here before. Dockside 1953 has become his new favorite restaurant. Our wives had the chicken and drugstore burger and loved it. Highly recommend.

The Fishery is outstanding. Fresh, delicious and unique. San Diego’s best neighborhood restaurant.

It was our first time at Slowly! We went for my husbands bday with our two boys. They have Tuesday night date night which is a great deal! We didn’t do that this time bc I wanted him to choose anything from the menu. We had the burrata salad appetizer, pork chop, salmon risotto, signature chicken, and kids cheeseburger. All were spectacular! Our cocktails were above and beyond! The festive mule and the two different espresso martinis were so unique! This is on the top of our list for PB!

One of our new favorites in La Jolla. The staff is fantastic. The food is wonderful. Very generous portions. Inside on a Friday night is very energetic. I would suggest sitting on the patio. Even when it's cool outside the heaters are fine. Friendliest staff from top to bottom I've encountered in years.

Had a fun lowkey evening with a friend. We could have happily ordered a dinner of all appetizers if the pizza didn't sound so good. We got the appetizer trio and the burrata for starters and the truffle bianche pizza (no pic) and ended with some classic tiramisu. I enjoyed wine with our dinner and my friend got a wonderful specialty fall spritz. The most disappointing bite was the stuffed squash blossoms, I was just expecting more than it was. It was bland with way too much coating. I think the burrata with Prosciutto was the best bite. It wasn't overly salty and just tasted fresh and creamy. I would definitely go back, there's so many other items on the menu I would try.
