Things To Do
The Barrel Room
Looking for something close to home? This place is a cozy wine bar that does serve small bites and entrees. Located in the Big5 shopping area.
Piacere Mio Del Sur
This yummy dinner and lunch spot will send you to Italy with their food and wine selection. There is a second location in South Park if you are looking to venture into the downtown area.
Brigantine Del Mar
Go west! This spot is right off the Pacific Coast Highway only a block from the beach serving up some great seafood. Perfect for lunch, dinner and kids!
OB Noodle House Bar 1502
Venture out and into a cozy beach community for this traditional noodle house. Great for lunch and dinner and kids! This place is a San Diego standout and is always busy.
Dini's Bistro
Want a dinner with a view of the beach at sunset? Look no further than this Carlsbad locals hotspot. This place is great for drinks and appetizers, with an amazing view of the Pacific Ocean.
Best Pizza and Brew Carmel Mountain
If pizza and beer is more your style this place is soooo good. Get the garlic knots and the ranch...trust.
Tabu Fusion
This yummy sushi spot is close by and a favorite of Roman and Katie. There’s an ice cream cookie shop right next door for dessert after!
Board & Brew - Del Sur
This sandwich shop is a San Diego exclusive. Among natives this place is better than, dare I say, In-n-out. Their special sauce is what gets them their gold stars. We love the Tuna Sandwich and the Turkado Sandwich. There is a second location in Del Mar close to the beach if you would like lunch and a view.
Robs Jalapenos
The classic San Diego Mexican food hole in the wall. This place has been a staple here for over 25 years. Look no further for your California Burrito fix. If you’ve never had one, now is the time. Great for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Einstein Bros. Bagels
A personal favorite of Roman and Katie. Try Romans favorite, The Farmhouse sandwich or try Katie’s favorite, chocolate chip bagel..toasted..with onion and chive cream cheese. It’s weird but good! Perfect for breakfast or lunch.
The Incredible Cafe
Local spot for your traditional breakfast. This INCREDIBLE place..see what I did there?..anyway this restaurant has been a go to for us for years!
Bernardo Winery
This winery is just around the corner to the venue. Go for wine tasting, shopping or dining!
Sail Bay
Our secret favorite beach spot, perfect for watching the sunset as well. It’s typically quieter and calmer in this area.
Seaport Village
Seaport Village is a cute shopping and dining area right on the bay in Downtown. Beautiful views and a few kitschy shops make this place a San Diego classic.
Julian Pie Company
Take a trip into the mountains and up to Julian for their famous apple pies. This cute town is a great day trip with shopping and food and views!
Lake Hodges
Beautiful lake hiking spot, great for an easy to intermediate hiker.
Blue Sky Ecological Reserve
Another great hiking spot for beginners and experts alike.
