In Short
It's no longer just the swanky restaurant inside the Marriott Del Mar that's getting all the hype. Brian Pekarcik is also offering some of his best small plates out on the hotel's poolside patio. Bright red umbrellas and cool, white private cabanas give the lounging space a more tropical, casual vibe than the restaurant, as does the DJ booth spinning Latin and Caribbean beats. Servers bring out munchies tapas-style and cocktails from the bar inside.
