When work takes you to San Diego, you must find yourself some of the best sustainable seafood paired with expert flavors concocted from locally sourced foods. With that said, you won’t want to miss a visit to Lionfish at Pendry San Diego in the Gaslamp District. Stop by for a taste of the blissful experience Chef “JoJo” Ruiz has created. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to experience one of Lionfish’s tasting menus. Going with a group is a great experience; I’m one who loves to savor a dish and break down what makes it so special. Each dish presented hits all the right lingual spots, fat and citrus complementing each other just perfectly to trigger a satisfying explosion of flavor. Make sure your group comes hungry! This is a generous tasting menu experience. Everything is timed nicely to allow you to not just enjoy your meal but also the company.
Be ready for a lively night out is all I have to say. Take a look at the delicious dishes we enjoyed.
Customize your menu, specifically for your group.
