Best Restaurants for Anniversaries in Sorrento Valley

It was a Sunday evening at 5:45pm and the restaurant was PACKED. After enjoying a sumptuous Italian meal, I can understand why. It started with Rosina coming by our table to tell us about the specials for the evening. My partner had the special ravioli and it was incredible. My entry was also excellent, flavorful and fresh. The pasta was cooked perfectly. The table next to us told us that they come here three times a month. That also says something for their food. We'll definitely be back to try other things on the menu!

I love this location. It couldn’t be better to see the waves and the beautiful sunset and the happy people all around down at the beach. The only thing I wish is that the food had less added sugar. I felt the hidden sugar ruined the wonderful food. We Californians don’t like all the unneeded carbs on our plates. But the cool building, the sunset views, and the nice waiter, was all quite lovely.

Great experience! Food did not disappoint and did not feel overpriced. Heard wonderful things about the service which was a little bit slow for us but it was Valentine’s Day and they had a seating at every table so that was understandable. We texted both of our parents from the table to wish them a Happy Valentine’s Day and tell them that we’ll bring them to The Pony Room the next time they’re in town. :)

We have been regulars at Jake’s over the years. It’s about the best atmosphere you could ask for. It’s very exclusive but very beach casual which makes it so comfortable. Great service every time we go there. They don’t serve the main course until you are ready…this is such an exception to most restaurants around town that are pushing you to finish and move on. All around thumbs up!!!

Pacifica never disappoints. Delicious food, fantastic service, great ambience and view. I’m a vegetarian and even though Pacifica seems to focus on seafood, their vegetarian options have been creative and delicious every time. Extensive wine selection too, with half-price bottles on Thursdays, it’s a great value.
