Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Mission Bay

First time at C-level for a date night! We sat outside at table right next to water. The heaters made it comfortable and it was a beautiful view of the harbor! The server was great-perfect suggestions and attentive at the appropriate times. We had the oysters, artichoke fritters, wedge BLT, and filet. Then, the brownie sundae for dessert! It was all delicious! I will go back for the wedge BLT and sundae alone! It was a great dinner and would defintely recommend!

I had a phenomenal experience at Juniper and Ivy. I made a reservation for my wife’s birthday and once I got there they had valet service for 15$ which for Downtown SD isn’t bad at all. Upon arriving we waited at a very nice, comfortable lounge area by the bar while our table got ready. Once we were seated the server Andrew gave us greeted us phenomenally, remembered the request I made upon making the reservation and fulfilled it expertly. I had initially checked the restaurant’s menu online to have what I wanted to order planned and my only critique is that there was a good amount of menu items in the website that either weren’t available or had different prices however I still rated them 5 stars because all the issues I had related to the website were smoothly resolved by both the manager and the server which easily removed all potential problems both regarding price and the availability of menu items. The food was just as good as the service and I would highly recommend anyone visiting San Diego or looking for a quality dining experience. The price is on the high side but I refuse to call it expensive because the amount you pay is on par with the experience you receive and I will absolutely be dining there again in the future. In conclusion 10/10 to Juniper and Ivy and a special shoutout to the server Andrew and to Whatever manager was on the floor the night of 20Dec2024.

We had an awesome experience. Ricky did a great job! We had the shishito pepper app with a side of wonton chips. We then ordered the pork belly dinner, scallops dinner, the Asian salad and calamari along with two sides of the wok fried vegetables. All was fabulous! I would order the same meals all over again! We look forward to coming back again.

This past weekend, my sister and I decided to experience The Grass Skirt during the holiday season. I was so happy. I finally got a chance to experience this bar normally it's hard to get a reservation, but if you decide to go to this place, recommend going right when they open so you can be able to get a walk in timeslot or reserve a time early in the day, they open at 5 PM. The customer service was friendly , great selection of drinks and by far the best Poké I've ever had this will become a tradition for me to come back every year. 

We had a wonderful early evening dinner. Our waiter was kind, informative, courteous and timely. The fajitas, mahi tacos, carne asada nachos, and Tres Leches Cake and margaritas were delicious. Parking was plenty and free. The views of the city at night with the Christmas lights was stunning.
