Croissant

“On my first visit I was greeted with an incredible smile and the willingness to get my straight matcha perfected even if she had to add more matcha or more water. On top of this amazing hospitality, I was treated to a beautiful message on my cup. 20 plus years at Starbucks and I have never got a heart. ❤️”

“Best Pizza & Brew serves a variety of delicious pizzas, salads, pastas, poke bowls and drinks. The workers are always ready to take your order and make suggestions if youre unsure of which dish to choose. The house salad is delicious. It's always served fresh, and a perfect side with pizza. Best Pizza & Brew is across the street from the beach, by other restaurants and stores, so it's usually a busy place. They have plenty of seating, and the dining area is clean. BP&B also sells cool hats, tees and hoodies. You won't be disappointed with the Best Pizza & Brew.”

Lilo

Lilo 2571 Roosevelt St, Carlsbad Seafood • $$$$
2571 Roosevelt St, Carlsbad - 10.77 miles

“Lilo's was our Valentine's Day dinner, and it was wonderful. The evening began in the courtyard, then moved inside to the Chef's Table. The dinner lasted about 2–21/2 hours and finished with a beautiful tea service outside in the courtyard around a fire pit. All of the courses were beautiful and delicious. I particularly enjoyed the wine pairing. I had asked for no cocktails, and they graciously made adjustments; the pairing included a couple of sakes that were fabulous. I loved the stories and history behind every dish and every wine/sake. This is definitely not a bargain—quite pricey—but for a very special occasion (think a 40th birthday or a special Valentine's Day), it's worth the splurge, especially if you enjoy an elegant, immersive food experience (and don't mind not taking home leftovers!).”

“Every dish felt both thoughtful and indulgent — the kind of food that looks beautiful but also delivers on flavor.

We ordered the çılbır (Turkish eggs) and added the hanger steak, and honestly, it was perfection. The steak was grilled beautifully — juicy, tender, and right at medium rare — and it paired seamlessly with the soft-poached eggs. The herbed yogurt added this cool, tangy balance to the rich chili-garlic butter, and the torn herbs gave everything a bright, fresh lift. Every bite had that ideal mix of creamy, spicy, and savory. The toast was golden and crunchy, perfect for chasing down every bit of sauce.

Then came the torrija (Spanish-style French toast), and wow. It’s rich without being heavy — a thick-cut sourdough soaked in yuzu cheesecake custard, topped with pecans, pear, and candied ginger. The textures were layered beautifully: crisp edges, custardy center, bright citrus notes cutting through the sweetness. It’s one of those dishes that makes you stop mid-bite just to appreciate what’s happening.

Manna feels like the kind of place where brunch becomes an experience — cozy, elevated, and genuinely creative. Every plate feels crafted with care, and it shows.

If you love brunch done thoughtfully, this is it.”
