Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Rincon

I love this place. Best cocktails in carlsbad and amazing bar tenders and management staff. If you like expresso martinis then you have to try theirs. Could be the best ever and I have had my fair share ❤️❤️🙏🙏

Always love Chandler's. Our meals were great. Only one comment about the Black Cod with a very mild lemon sauce. Although it was very good, there were pepper flakes or something small that was very hot in the sauce or on the vegetables. Whatever it was got in my throat and made me cough and my eyes water numerous times. I didn't expect the mild sauce to have any hot peppers in it or I wouldn't have ordered it. The pomegranate & pear salad was excellent, as was the squash soup. The short ribs and the prime rib my dinner companions ordered were delicious. The creme brulee was good but the sugar must have been carmelized earlier in the day so the dish was cold without the treat of the warm carmelized sugar topping on top of the cool custard.

Friend and I visited for the Thanksgiving prix fixe dinner. It was absolutely fantastic. We ordered the lamb shank, beef filet, and added the sweet potatoes. Our onion soup and blackened shrimp appetizer choices were delicious. The pumpkin cake and apple pastry desserts were so good. The overall standout was definitely the lamb shank. Unbelievably delicious. The wine list is incredible and we complemented dinner with a lovely Napa Cabernet. The service was excellent and absolutely what you would expect. Bill, was a delight and even took a few photos of us for my visiting friend. Thank you for a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Great thanksgiving feast with breathtaking view of the bay and San Diego’s skyline. Service was extremely friendly and professional. The staff constantly attend to your needs. One of them even helped carry one of my plates back to the table. The food selection was very eclectic and included hand crafted soups, multiple meat carving stations, and a wide variety of salads, side dishes, and desserts. Will definitely consider coming back here for future holiday feasts. Thank you coasterra for a wonderful experience.

Unmatched hospitality! The server was knowledgeable about the food and able to describe them well. We didn’t have great luck with the clams, they were very chewy & overcooked but the broth was delicious. They took it back and a sweet manager, (I’m forgetting names) sent a hamachi that was to die for! Everything else that hit the table was delicious and we were very impressed. The bubbly and celebration desert was super appreciated as well. Honestly made my birthday dinner feel extra special, some places really don’t go the extra mile but they sure know how to impress.
