Serẽa is proud to bring an exquisite sea-to-table dining experience to San Diego in a comfortable yet sophisticated setting.
Located just steps from the beach in the legendary Hotel del Coronado, the restaurant's key focus is the bounty of the sea. The menu focuses on sustainable seafood, with a coastal cuisine menu that spotlights the best of the region's oceans, farms and fields, ranging from the California Coast down to the Baja Peninsula.
Creative cuisine with a global flair is prepared by San Diego's own Chef Jojo Ruiz, who creates elegant, fresh dishes with just a hint of Mediterranean flair.

*Serea & The Hotel Del Coronado are currently undergoing a once in a century transformation, after 100 years, we felt a facelift was in order!
We wish you to be aware there will be evolving changes to the way we are able to serve you during this period as Serea and The Hotel Del Coronado are reimagined for generations to come.*

    This place is not very good. It claims all these awards but the service was sub par. The food was ok but left a lot to be desired for the price. They only have a public restroom. My wife had to wait in line for 15 minutes to wash her hands. For the price that should not happen. Won’t be back.

    Would family had a booth and watched the sunset. Our server Brett was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about the menu providing attentive service throughout the meal. The cocktails were fun and there were a few local beer options. We had three appetizers, all of which were delicious: octopus, beef carpaccio and roasted cauliflower. This was the most unique and best food we’ve had in the area. It’s a little pricey so good for special occasions.

    I ordered the octopus, swordfish, and local ceviche as appetizers. All had good Mediterranean flavors; but the octopus and swordfish were a bit salty, and the ceviche was quite sour. However, the rather lackluster quality of those were not remotely close to the abysmal entree. I placed the order for the half chicken after the appetizers were delivered to the table, and it took approximately 45mins for it to be brought out. In addition, the chicken itself was unbearably salty. I could only withstand one bite until I ultimately decided to leave.

    We had dinner with our 6 year old at Serea while we stayed at the hotel. Food and service were excellent and everyone was very accommodating of our child. Brett took excellent care of us and gave excellent guidance on food and drink selections. We’re looking forward to coming back!
