Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Cardiff By The Sea

We went there to celebrate our anniversary and also Graduation. We had a great time. Great food great mimosas. 

Beautiful location, great service. While expenseive (what isn't these days), we appreciated the creativity of the space, the quality of the food (vegetables from its own farm), and the service. I highly recommend

Exceptional dining experience with family from out of town. Relaxing and comfortable out on the patio, great for adults, kids and dogs mix. Perfect food choices for all - from meat eaters to healthy to allergy issues. Wonderful warm greeting upon arrival, no issues waiting for everyone to arrive, our server was the best!!! Attentive, kind and patient, great checking on all of us throughout the meal. Everyone had what they needed and wanted at all times, including desert for the kiddos after we adults kept talking and had already closed the bill. Our server also took a lot of great group photos for us and took care to clear the dirty plates first! We had a wonderful time and could not have been happier with choosing Brickman’s as our venue. Sincere thank you to all.

I recently moved from Los Angeles so I've had incredible sushi experiences and have been lucky to befriended some of the best Sushi Chefs in Southern California. As I transition to San Diego a lot of the highly-rated Sushi places on Yelp have largely been focused on Sushi Rolls (nothing wrong with that) but personally for myself the best experience is usually the opportunity to engage the sushi chefs at the sushi bar and listen to how the sushi was prepared vs getting a tray of sushi that needs wasabi and soy sauce. To each their own but I can say that if you want a true sushi dining experience then Boto Sushi Del Mar provides that. It is a cute little restaurant and one of the longest sushi bars I've seen outside of Nobu or Roku. I had Omakasa by Chef Gary and everything was close to perfection with a variety of different dishes aside from the core Nigori sushi and some Sashmi. Each dish was delivered individually and explained how it was prepared by either the Chef or by the great staff. Enjoyed my first real exploration of Sushi in North County and will be back.
