Fabulous!! The food was delicious and the staff were friendly, warm and accommodating. We had the best time and it is our new go to place in La Jolla.

Candor is one of my go to's. The quality of ingredients is something many restaurants compromise on, but not here. I also like the variety on the menu. This time I had the short ribs. I would have given the food a 5* but the garlic mashed potato's were not like their usual amazingness š. My man had the penne pasta and the sauce with fresh flavorful and perfect. So was the pasta. If you want a quality meal this is your place. And the service is excellent , even when they are busy they take the time to communicate and let you know you're seen. As a local when people ask me where to go ā i send them here.

Candor has been a local stand out, and a favourite since the day it opened its doors. Giuseppeās team does an amazing job with seafood; the seafood stew is the best I've eaten anywhere in the world, and the broth is incredibly flavourful! The summer appetizers are innovative, light, and refreshing. The wines are expertly curated, and well priced. The impeccable service rounds out a delightful dining experience - Bravo Team Giuseppe!

There were four of us and we all enjoyed our dinner at Candor. Everything was as expected and better. A great choice for a low key celebration or just a quiet dinner out.

I realized when I got home that my food sent back twice was cold, and it had been laced with MSG that made me sick!

Our party of two ate another delicious dinner at Candor outside on the patio. The service was excellent and our food was outstanding as always. The fresh catch - halibut, and chicken Milanese were delectable. Full of flavor and oh so appetizing! We also ordered sides of strawberry arugula salad and bbq artichoke half's dipped in the most delicious aioli, plus asparagus. The mango panacotte for dessert was delectable. We have never been disappointed at Candor!

We had another great dinner at Candor, the Short Rib and Orecchiette were fantastic. We sat at the bar very comfortable and service was excellent. We were the last people in the restaurant and never felt rushed
As always, this visit to Candor was on point - pleasant, relaxing, with delicious food and great service. W all ordered something different and everyone loved their meal.

This was my second time in sixth months at this restaurant. The staff is always welcoming and attentive, with several people covering the table. We had two appetizers for 5 people and they were a good size to share. The main dishes were well prepared. Though it was a Friday evening, the restaurant wasn't full. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The noise level inside was low. I would definitely come back again.

Delightful delicious meal at candorās. Each dish was unique and worth re-ordering one was a great server with good recommendations the zaāatra salmon was fresh and really great. Even the simple salad was not so simple. The dressing was amazing. We ordered the tomato bread with garlic for a starter and it wasnāt too much but really delicious. Even though we didnāt really have room for dessert, we ordered the tiramisu with chocolate mousse complemented each other perfectly. I encourage you to come here for a delicious and special lunch.
