“Where do I begin? This isn’t your average hotel restaurant serving just hotel guests. This is a million-dollar, five-star dining experience with stunning views! It deserves to be a destination in itself, attracting visitors specifically for the food. From the ambiance, music, and jazz nights to the exceptional cuisine and staff, everything is top-notch.
Make sure to ask for the complementary bread, to die for.. we ordered it twice.
Plus, you get validated parking! Enjoy a meal in La Jolla without the hassle of street parking—just luxurious convenience!
This is my 3rd time at the place. Never disappoint!“

Crab Eggs Benedict and Avocado Toast

“We had breakfast at the restaurant. The prices seemed high for the offering and quality: About $30 for the meal with coffee or juice. Pancakes were unavailable unless you spent $35 for a gourmet version. Oatmeal was watery. Avocado toast didn't use fresh avocadoes but a premade guacamole. The tomato jam was tasty.

Dietary restrictions: Make this known upfront.

Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant can be reached by drop-off at the front desk area and then taking the sidewalk to the right.“

“I am getting on a plane to leave San Diego and I already miss cove house! Came here for three days in a row on this trip and cannot race enough about the staff, Caitlin (sorry if I’m not spelling your name right girl!) is by far one of the best bartenders I’ve ever encountered. Which is saying a lot for me considering I’m a former bartender who has been in bars coast to coast. She was so attentive, welcoming and all around a day of sunshine. We also had the pleasure of having Carl at the bar as well. I cannot not wait to come back and wish Caitlin was at the bar across the street from my home! The food was also excellent! We had the Crab BLAT, steak frites, salad and candied bacon. All made with care and extremely fresh. This is worth a stop in La Jolla, especially if you’re going up that hill.“
