We went to San Diego on our honeymoon and had dinner at the Hotel Del Coronado... It was a lucky surprise pick because as I found out, my wife's childhood dream from the first time she visited San Diego was to eat there on her honeymoon! Anyway, we selected an excellent wine to pair with our fabulous appetizer and entrees.... more

I always spend one evening here when I visit San Diego. The outdoor seating is so pleasant and beautiful with a view of the ocean and sunset from the beautiful Coronado Hotel. The food is fabulous. The waiters are top notch - friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. It is fun to stroll about before and after dinner on the grounds and... more

We have stayed at Hotel Del in the past but never ate there. We ate at 1500 Ocean over Labor Day weekend this year. We had a reservation at sundown and it could not have been a more perfect setting, view, or food. The service wasn't that great by our waiter but I separately tipped the bus boy who served... more

The food is great and service professional and view fantastic. The only drawback is that the restauarant is one of several dining venues beachside at the Del, and they are all next to each other, so even though you may be at an upscale romantic spot, all around you there is the bar crowd, the cafe crowd, and all the... more

Beware, people from the hotel come here with their little brats. While they are drinking themselves under the table, the kids are running around the place screaming. Next they'll be putting in arcade games! We paid $400 for dinner for 4, with no drinks (other than 2 glasses of wine), and we could scarcely hear each other's conversation. I wrote... more

We decided to eat at the famous "Del" hotel and chose 1500 Ocean only because the other seafood restaurant was fully booked that night. I was told that outdoor seating at 1500 Ocean wasn't available until late that night so I booked an indoor reservation for 6:30, however, upon arriving there were plenty of outdoor seats and we were seated... more

This is one of my favorite places to keep going back to in San Diego. The wine list is extensive and will satisfy any palette; the food is amazing; the service is impeccable. You must go here if you are visiting San Diego, and if you live here, you will keep going back! more

Despite the fact that we arrived 30 minutes late on a Saturday night for our reservation at 1500 Ocean, we were quickly seated at a table overlooking the ocean. Our hostess and waiter both congratulated us on our anniversary and were very friendly. The service was impeccable throughout the meal. We never felt neglected or rushed at any point and... more
