Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Rancho Bernardo

Celebrated my sisters bachelorette here and the waiter made our experience very special!

We had a very nice dinner but we were surprised when we were seated in the bar area. We had made reservations for the indoor restaurant. We should have been advised before we arrived. We probably still would have come as we do enjoy the bar music but it would have been nice to inform us. The bar shaker and bar noise were a bit much for an elegant dining experience. Apparently, there was a large party in the main restaurant--strange for a Saturday night.

This is the second or third time that I've been to this location, since the remodel. I mean I've been to the Brigantine for years and years and I think the remodel is hideous. I don't like it. It's very cold inside. It's not warm and cozy like the old fashioned style. The is rather slow. They need to ramp up more employees or they need to come up with a better game plan. The food is still okay. I was surprised the fish taco was in one big piece. I thought it was going to come in little flakes or something to that nature. I didn't expect it to be like a big piece of fish that would go on a sandwich bun so that was a little disappointing but other than that everything was good.

Lovely ambiance overlooking the golf course. Server was very friendly, timely and knowledgeable. Food was delicious especially the crab cake. We had a very enjoyable afternoon.

Outstanding place to eat, drink and enjoy. Food choices, presentation and flavor was great. Service was great.
