Although it was a long wait to eat on the beachfront patio- the decor and bar scene were enough to keep us stimulated. The menu had a multitude of tasty-looking choices- my dad and I got the seafood salad which was light and healthy and came with more fish that veggies for once! My mom got the farmer's omelette which looked and apparently tasted great! The food is good, but it is truly the view and primo people watching that make this place a san diego destination.

Food wasn't all that great, small portions but then again the prices were not that expensive. Very nice view and atmosphere free valet paring =0) Perhaps if you go in nighttime the restaurant will looks better because of the lighting . By the way there was food all over the floor.
Pros: free valet parking
Cons: food all over the floor

We had the pleasure of dining at JRDN and had a wonderful evening. The restaurant is associated with the Tower 23 Hotel on Pacific Beach. The restaurant location is beautiful with views to the Crystal Pier and the Pacific Beach boardwalk. The outdoor seating is lovely and has ample people watching opportunities. The restaurant has a modern decor but a relaxed vibe and the seating was comfortable. We especially enjoyed the crab cake appetizers and the scallops for main entree. The before dinner drinks were marvelous. We would definitely return here for another great evening! Ask for Danielle as your server. She was very friendly and efficient as well as being right on the mark with her recommenations. Thank you JRDN for a memorable evening!
Pros: Excellent service
Cons: a bit pricey

No matter what you are wearing, this restaurant will make you feel sophisticated and chic. You definately must try to dress to impress because the restaurant deserves it. Make reservations, it helps because we had great seats, but definately the view during day is much better. They serve the best scallops I have ever had, even better than New York. Staff is extremely attentive and surprisingly fast service. Their wine and drink list is exceptional. My boyfriend is sord of a wine enthusiast, and he is still surprised of the great pinot noir JRDN serves. I highly recommend it.

This bar is about a year or so old. It is definitly the class of all bars in PB. It's only competition might be Johnny V on garnet. The restaurant is a great place to start off your evening, I recommend the free range chicken or swordfish. There is also a sushi bar which I have heard is great. The atmospehere is very modern and hip with sort of a downtown / south beach vibe. Be sure to dress to impress when coming here. Also on weekends and especially in the summer lines can take 3o minutes to an hour to get in. The outdoor patio is right on the beach and there is also an outdoor bar. Be sure to bring your credit when coming here, the drinks are priced similar to a downtown club.
