Great for outdoor dining
Good for special occasions

Beeside Balcony is a hidden gem in old Del Mar, CA with a relaxed seaside chic décor where guests enjoy global mediterranean cuisine and ocean views from the covered outside balcony.

A third generation chef of Spanish and Italian descent, and hailing form Paris, France, Christophe's restaurant career began at 17 in the kitchen of his father's restaurant in Pasadena when they first emigrated to the USA. Upon returning to southern California in 2011, Christophe spent 8 years as the managing partner of Eddie V's Prime Seafood in La Jolla. Here he deepened his knowledge of sourcing and cooking the freshest seafood available, while delivering world class service. The laid back coastal vibe of Del Mar, combined with the attention to detail from Christophe's fine dining background, infuses Beeside Balcony with an easy elegance that elevates any gathering, and makes the perfect backdrop to showcase his global mediterranean menu.

The restaurant is very cute and the parking was free and easy on a Sunday morning. The cocktails were beautiful and delicious. My friend found the avocado toast with eggs to be very good, but my breakfast burrito was subpar. The burrito and my other friend’s maquiladoras were very salty.

Absolutely amazing experience! We went during San Diego restaurant week and the $50 3 course dinner was phenomenal. The osso bucco was the highlight of the menu, so rich and the meat just fell off the bone. We also noted that it was my birthday in the reservation notes, they wished me happy birthday and even wrote me a handwritten card! Very great service and amazing food.

All of this is with the caveat that it was restaurant week. I ordered meatballs as an appetizer. The sauce on the plate was cold, one of the meatballs was burnt on top and raw on the bottom, the other one had the texture as if it was boiled. The medium rare Denver steak I ordered came out blue. My wife’s fish was overcooked and dry. The dessert, a lemon tart, was also a contradiction; the crust was burnt and dry, but the curd was runny and not set. Service was fast and friendly, no complaints there.

I loved the beet salad but could hardly find the cinnamon nuts. I guess they were more like dust! The tempura rockfish was pretty heavily breaded so was disappointed with that, and the fries were tasty but not crispy at all. The lemon tart was amazing and the ambience of being on the balcony was top-notch!

Beeside Balcony. I definitely appreciate the memorable occasion. It was marked by exquisite cuisines, impeccable service, and a stunning ambiance. Another favorite restaurant on our list. I don't normally eat all my food in one sitting, but I could not help myself, lol. Back to the gym tomorrow 💪. Another restaurant on our favorite list.

Salmon Ballantine appetizer was new to my wife and me and we liked it. My Osso Buco was tender but the flavor was ruined by cooking it with far too much rosemary. My wife’s Denver steak with fries was decent. Our server and host were attentive but there was too much time between visits to our table, apparently due to inadequate staffing. The bread pudding was generous in size for us to share but a terrible flavor despite the fresh blackberries and slices of strawberries. The cost exceeded the value of our meals

My husband and I went for lunch during restaurant week. The seating was chaotic even though we made a reservation. I was waiting in the long line to get to the front but apparently multiple people thought they should go first so I got cut in line twice even when I was finally at the front. The hostess didn’t seem like she was even interested in asking me if I checked in yet when I was waiting until I asked for her attention despite being 3 feet from her across the counter. The service was friendly but kind of terrible, but probably because they were busy…we got our main entrees before our appetizers came. I had to ask for our appetizers. They went to get it but brought the wrong appetizers. They ended up fixing it but I started eating my entree before my appetizer because I waited a while for my appetizer to come but it took too long and my burger and fries were getting cold. The food was pretty good.. the Mediterranean chicken wrap was better than the salty burger and fries. But it was good… I guess they were too busy to fill our tiny water cups more than once. Their lemon tart was really sweet and I couldn’t stand more than 1 bite. The churros were decent. Overall, restaurant week experience here was terrible. It was my first time here but I have no intentions to come back for not so great experience. I ended up cancelling my other restaurant week reservation experience elsewhere because it was just so disappointing.
