Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Rancho Santa Fe

Attended the 5-course Christmas Eve dinner. It was worth every penny- from start to finish it was coursed beautifully, ingredients were fresh and cooked perfectly to temp, plating was festive and colourful; and all this with just the right timed check-ins from my bartender/server James. The couple next to me did the wine pairing and everything was explained nicely and paired well... along with some fun history & stories- I opted for the cocktails which were creative and utilized some lovely ingredients as well as being well balanced.

Shared a few plates, everything was delicious. Mushroom toast, meatballs, yellowtail sashimi. Lovely bottle of Bordeaux. 2nd time at Echale. Does not disappoint. 👍🏻👍🏻

Everything was perfect. From the ease of OpenTable reservations , communication via messages to walking in to see the hostess. The seating was absolutely beautiful and atmosphere gorgeous. Just as expected then more. The food and drinks were amazingly delicious!

Have always loved Rosina's and it has only gotten better over the years. We really like the furnishing in the new room across the patio. With the original room, the patio and the new room Rosina's has really gone to a new level. In the old days we enjoyed Rosina walking around and talking to people but last night the place was so busy that she only had time to say hi. But that's okay...shows how popular it is. We also like the small personal touches. The hostess told my wife how she really liked her new hairstyle. Not only was that nice and thoughtful, it showed and warm and personal touch. And finally the food never disappoints. Don't worry about trying to choose the best thing on the menu. It is all great!!!

We were so pleased that Madison has brought back their delicious jambalaya! Having grown up in New Orleans, I can say that Madison‘s jambalaya is some of the best around! Also loved the live jazz, friendly staff, and good vibe of the place!
