About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Just as 18th century taverns served as the epicenter of the communities they served, so too does the Green Dragon Tavern & Museum in Carlsbad offer a warm, family-owned gathering place today for San Diego friends and neighbors of all ages. The welcoming atmosphere is surpassed only by the highly acclaimed and award winning menu. Each dish is curated by with a focus on seasonal, locally sourced and sustainable ingredients. Craft cocktails, wines and 20 rotating local beers on tap pair perfectly with our savory fare. Our guests rave about our Maine lobster rolls, Shepherd's Pie, hand-tossed pizzas, fresh seafood, and braised short rib to name a few.

As part of the dining experience, guests are invited to travel back in time to the days when our nation's founders met in secret at the original Green Dragon Tavern in Boston. Explore our museum; documents and antiquities from the colonial and Revolutionary War eras and learn more about our nation's founders and their everlasting legacies.

    We had steak, shrimp pasta, tuna tartare, various appetizers, three different IPAs, shrimp tacos, clam chowder, and a chicken sandwich. They were all good, and they were a great value and taste.

    We had the hanger steak and salmon, both of which were very good. We go here about once a month and the food is consistent. Service was very good also. Look at the museum before or after you eat. There is no charge.

    We have enjoyed casual dining here...tonight shared a Caesar salad(1/2 size was plenty) which was delicious. Croutons seem to melt in your mouth. Supreme pizza had a great crust and an abundance of meats, peppers and cheese... We have always enjoyed eating here! Donovan D was our server. He was great. Thank you.
