    The Mediterranean Room never disappoints. The food is delicious, the menu well-appointed and presented beautifully. The service is excellent. This restaurant is an icon in La Jolla and its reputation is well deserved.

    Beautiful dining room and excellent service but the food was unfortunately subpar. The lamb loin was tough and dry. The filet was grainy. So disappointed because we were staying at the hotel and had such high expectations.

    This beautiful hotel is a treat just to sit and watch the sunset while sharing a couple cocktails. In addition to that, the salmon and stripped seabass were absolutely delicious. Service was excellent and the staff friendly and welcoming… watch out for the $12 valet parking charge, but oh well, that’s La Jolla. Really looking forward to our next time.
