About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for outdoor dining
Serẽa is proud to bring an exquisite sea-to-table dining experience to San Diego in a comfortable yet sophisticated setting.
Located just steps from the beach in the legendary Hotel del Coronado, the restaurant's key focus is the bounty of the sea. The menu focuses on sustainable seafood, with a coastal cuisine menu that spotlights the best of the region's oceans, farms and fields, ranging from the California Coast down to the Baja Peninsula.
Creative cuisine with a global flair is prepared by San Diego's own Chef Jojo Ruiz, who creates elegant, fresh dishes with just a hint of Mediterranean flair.

    View was gorgeous. We’re staying at the Del and this was our first time dining at Serea. My fish was slightly overcooked and the drinks were average. My husband enjoy his filet but the brussel sprouts were overcooked too. For the price, we won’t be going back.

    Prices very high. $75 for Red Snapper. Mezze plate was not worth $30. Calamari was very good. Took over an hour to get us our lobster rigatoni. Service poor

    Our server Missy was exceptional - attentive, friendly, and truly deserving of recognition. She made our dining experience wonderful and deserves the highest praise. Unfortunately, our experience with the host was disappointing. I had made a reservation over a month in advance specifically requesting outdoor seating to enjoy the sunset. When we arrived on time, the host informed us that no outdoor tables were available and asked us to return in 20 minutes. We waited as requested, but upon returning, she again claimed no tables were ready despite several clearly empty outdoor tables. When I politely inquired about the available tables, her response was unprofessional: “Fine, I’ll seat you there, but it’s reserved for someone else.” Her dismissive attitude and poor problem-solving approach were particularly concerning given her role as the first point of contact for guests. While Missy’s outstanding service saved our evening, the initial experience with the host was frustrating and detracted from what should have been a seamless dining experience for guests with confirmed reservations.

    The best part is the location. Food not worth price. And they don’t advertise prices anywhere before you sit down. Not a lot to chose from unless you want to eat meat or fish. Somethings didn’t even taste good. Waiter was friendly and nice. -ambiance was very nice

    Took a very long time to get dinner, actually making us late for an appointment due to a “miscommunication” in the kitchen. Swordfish tacos were not very good, overall expensive for okay food and not a great experience.

    Beautiful setting, accommodating and good service and well prepared food. Is pretty expensive … but if you know ahead and is ok, then what the heck! 😎
