Tom Ham’s Lighthouse was built in 1971 by a man who was not afraid to put his name on his product. Rooted in warm welcomes & excellent food, Tom Ham made his lifelong dream a reality. Tom Ham’s Lighthouse is the only restaurant in the US to have a USCG operated & maintained Lighthouse attached to it. You can locate us on any modern nautical map as Beacon #9. Featuring a 100% responsibly resourced seafood menu & award winning Sunday Champagne Brunch, we are a must when it comes to the San Diego food scene. The dining room, purposely shaped like the state of California, allows for groups as grand as 50 yet private enough for a couple’s night out.

With the best views of the Downtown City Skyline, Coronado & San Diego Bay, Tom Ham's is & remains a San Diego tradition in dining excellence since 1971.

    The service was a wonderful experience as a first time diner to Seneca. The food and cocktails were amazing. My family and I had a beautiful view while dining here. Most definitely will eat there again.

    An overall great experience! Ambience was outstanding and service was warm and courteous. Food was on the heavier side (grateful that our waitress didn’t pressure us to order more, which seems to happen more often than not at restaurants of this caliber) - we did think the Japanese wagyu was worth it. Not running back only because of the price point.

    We had an amazing dinner. Three old friends were treated so amazingly by the restaurant. It was an honor to meet and chat with Chef Scott! Our meal was delicious. Standouts were the poblano soup and the churros (we were referring to them as magic clouds of goodness) Fantastic service from the hostess stand to our wonderful waiter to the bussers and everyone else. A perfect place to bring out-of-town guests. The new menu is really great!

    This was our first time at Cesarina, and it won’t be our last! The pastas were absolutely outstanding—I especially loved my Arrabiatissima with malfalde and guanciale—and the table-side-made tiramisu was the best we’ve ever had. We loved the ambiance of the outside patio. Everything was splendid and the staff worked tirelessly and successfully to create a festive environment. Can’t wait to return!
