“We attended the 20th annual Celebrate the Craft. It was fantastic and we thoroughly enjoyed the event. The waitstaff at the bar was friendly and provided excellent service.“

“Very fun and lively atmosphere! The design is very well done. The food was great, I personally loved the oysters as they were served differently than I have experienced. The jalapeño Caesar salad was also amazing! Had a kick! Main dishes I enjoyed were the burger, and the chicken, very good and flavorful. Very fun and different cocktails to choose from along with fun zero proof options which is great if you do not drink alcohol. Service was spectacular, very kind, professional and knowledgeable about the menu. We will be coming back!“

The entrees and dessert were absolutely delicious. The view over looking the cove was romantic. Overall Molly made this an unforgettable experience and we will definitely be coming back.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Candor in La Jolla, and it's safe to say that I found a hidden gem. Chef Giuseppe's culinary skills are truly impressive. The arancini were crispy and packed with flavor, while the short ribs were incredibly tender and delicious. The fisherman stew was a delightful medley of fresh seafood, and even the burger exceeded my expectations. The cozy ambiance and friendly staff added to the overall relaxed and enjoyable experience. If you're looking for a memorable dining experience in La Jolla, Candor is definitely worth a visit.“

“We used Expedia to book and for some reason the site kept giving us an error and when it finally let us book, it had changed the date from the 15/16 to 25.. it was non refundable. The incredible staff at the Sheraton handled it, got us our room and we just got an email informing us that we would be getting a refund for the 25. My suggestion is to call the hotel and book your rooms through them. Beautiful property, room and beds super comfy for a reasonable price.. the staff are very nice and helpful. Pool was warm and the hot tub was excellent after long day of walking..“

“Located on UCSD Campus. Quick and delicious. I enjoyed the Italian Panini with Calibrian Garlic Aoili. Excited to taste the other options. Thalia offered friendly and helpful information. Order by phone, online or in person. 5 Star Food, Service and Atmosphere. Cheers!“

“I came early to the lot and honestly, Gabby made the whole visit. She was everywhere, front, floor, theater, and still found time to really take care of us. She listened, stayed calm, and made everything feel easy, even pointing out the Wednesday discount. We left smiling and super grateful. Thank you, Gabby!“

“This little hidden gem of a restaurant was the perfect place for a Sunday brunch. Upscale yet casual, the ambiance was great! We shared some pastries and patatas bravas which were perfectly prepared and very filling. The best part was the top-quality service - thank you, Karina!“

“Great hotel, very clean, views are beautiful & staff is amazing..... like Andrew at front desk, Rima from the restaurant & Nick from the bar. I am just not used to how "pet" friendly Cali is. As a fur mama of a Pit Bull I was still a little shocked by a husky, big lab, and a pit mix all came int and walked up to the hostess stand or bar.“
