About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Great for scenic views
Beeside Balcony is a hidden gem in La Jolla Village, CA with a relaxed seaside chic décor where guests enjoy global mediterranean cuisine and ocean views from interior and the balcony. A third generation chef of Spanish and Italian descent, and hailing form Paris, France, Christophe's restaurant career began at 17 in the kitchen of his father's restaurant in Pasadena when they first emigrated to the USA. Upon returning to southern California in 2011, Christophe spent 8 years as the managing partner of Eddie V's Prime Seafood in La Jolla. Here he deepened his knowledge of sourcing and cooking the freshest seafood available, while delivering world class service. The laid back coastal vibe of La Jolla, combined with the attention to detail from Christophe's fine dining background, infuses Beeside Balcony with an easy elegance that elevates any gathering, and makes the perfect backdrop to showcase his global mediterranean menu.

    The food was very good, but the service and atmosphere was not on par with the food. We were a party of four and everyone enjoyed their food. I had the Cioppino and the Pork Osso Buco. Both portions were good size and very flavorful. Service was friendly, but not attentive. No atmosphere to speak of.

    We had a gift card and decided to come here on a Friday night for dinner before meeting up with friends. The service was extremely slow, which we quickly realized was because the two servers working were entertaining their friends at two different tables in the restaurant - two VERY loud and VERY obnoxious girls, and a group of three guys pounding tequila shots. The servers paid more attention to their friends than us or the other guests in the restaurant. Our appetizer came out before our drinks and there were only 3 other people in the restaurant besides the servers' friends. The food was just okay. I'm glad we had a gift card because I wouldn't have felt good paying the cost for the meal. The slow service and ambience created by the servers' friends made the whole experience even worse. We won't be going back.

    Our server Cecile was AMAZING. My date and I were in awe on the incredible service that she provided us while we dined on the balcony of the restaurant. Definitely will book another reservation in future.

    The Beeside Burgar is award winning!! Everything about this beautiful hidden gem is perfect. The farm to table veggies and the grass fed beef make it more than just a meal. Thank you to the wonderful staff and chef for making our visit to La Jolla so memorable.

    The view and atmosphere was romantic and trendy. We loved the 3 course menu with wine pairings. Our server was polished, professional and smiling. I especially liked the starter; Salmon Croquet. Parking was tricky but we expected that so we wore comfortable shoes and walked a few blocks through La Jolla village. We will be back! Everything was delicious.
