Callie represents Chef Travis Swikard's debut solo project after spending a decade working alongside the esteemed Chef Daniel Boulud in New York City. The restaurant’s name, "Callie," comes from the Greek word "kallos," meaning "the most beautiful," and embodies its blend of Mediterranean cuisine with local ingredients and terroir, from sea to land from San Diego, Swikard's hometown. In 2022, Callie was acclaimed as one of America's top new restaurants by Esquire and Robb Report, and received both a Bib Gourmand and a Plate from the Michelin Guide. Callie is a dedicated supporter of Feeding San Diego, having contributed over 1 million meals to those in need in San Diego since its launch. Swikard is set to open his second restaurant in La Jolla in 2025.

Tom Ham’s Lighthouse was built in 1971 by a man who was not afraid to put his name on his product. Rooted in warm welcomes & excellent food, Tom Ham made his lifelong dream a reality. Tom Ham’s Lighthouse is the only restaurant in the US to have a USCG operated & maintained Lighthouse attached to it. You can locate us on any modern nautical map as Beacon #9. Featuring a 100% responsibly resourced seafood menu & award winning Sunday Champagne Brunch, we are a must when it comes to the San Diego food scene. The dining room, purposely shaped like the state of California, allows for groups as grand as 50 yet private enough for a couple’s night out. Holiday brunches have been long time family traditions for many San Diegans. Start your family’s tradition this next holiday. With the best views of the Downtown City Skyline, Coronado & San Diego Bay, Tom Ham's is & remains a San Diego tradition in dining excellence since 1971.

    Tom Hams is a great all around restaurant. Parking is plentiful & free. The view is amazing. Our server Ricardo was so attentive. He was asking us about what we needed before we could even ask him. And most importantly - the food is reasonably priced and delicious. We started with appetizers - calamari, Brussel sprouts and cauliflower. All were yummy. And our entrees were great too. I had the paella (they subbed out the mussels which I appreciated). The other ladies were happy with their selections too (yellow fin, raw bar & scallops). Just a great night!!!!

    A coffee speakeasy, the first in San Diego? What a great concept. It’s hidden, you’d never think it would be where it’s at. Added some fun to our morning adventure. It’s super cute, food, pastries and drinks were amazing, top notch service. I’m already booking my next visit.
