The Pony Room has a beautiful ambiance. My husband and I have been here to celebrate a few…read moreanniversaries, to go on double dates and, more recently, to celebrate my mom's birthday. Their food quality is also very good. Of the several times we've been, we've struggled with food temperature not being warm enough about half the time. Servers are kind, but can be inconsistent. Again I would say half of our visits we've felt forgotten. My biggest irritation was during our latest visit, in which families with children were seated next to us not once, but twice. This was disturbing because on the booth side of the table where my mom and I sat, we felt the movement of squirmy children from the table next to us. Highly recommend more attention to table selection by the host staff. Given the classiness of this place, I find it silly that I'd have to go out of my way to ask for hot food and to be seated only around adults. We will be taking The Pony Room out of our rotation for a while.

Understory is so beautiful and moody, it's a perfect place to have a nice cocktail and small plates.

My friend ordered a carajillo which was so tasty, I wish I opted for that as well. Cocktail costs are on the higher side but they are worth it.

The vibe in there is always on point too, great atmosphere. Definitely coming back again, and had to give a shoutout because the experience was just that good. Highly recommend.

We recently dined at Coastal Kitchen inside the Hilton San Diego Del Mar for the first time, as we…read morewere staying at the Hilton and decided to give it a try after checking out their dinner menu. As we entered for dinner around 6 pm, the hostess told us to sit anywhere we liked. Our waitress, Eva, and the server were very nice and attentive to our needs. Here's what we ordered: 1. **Crispy Calamari** - Really hot and crispy, perfect with the lemon aioli. 4.5/5 2. **Wagyu Cheeseburger Sliders** - Served with French fries, the flame-broiled burgers with garlic aioli were moist and paired well with the soft, tasty brioche buns. 4.4/5 3. **Herb Chicken Sandwich** - Marinated in rosemary and garlic, with provolone, spinach, and heirloom tomato. Served with fries, this was a great, tasty sandwich. 4.4/5 4. **Filet Mignon** - Tender filet served with vegetables, potatoes, carrots, and mashed potatoes. Cooked perfectly. 4.5/5 5. **Charbroiled Angus Rib Eye Steak** - Tender and very tasty Angus rib eye, with distinct grill flavors. Served with mashed potatoes, carrots, cauliflower, and asparagus. The star of the show. 4.6/5 6. **House-Made Bread Pudding** - Served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, it was moist and sweet. 4.4/5 The night was quiet initially but got busier as time passed. There was plenty of seating outside where you can enjoy the cool breeze and be close to the swimming pool. They even turned on the outdoor fire pits next to comfy couches and tables, making it a nice place to hang out after dinner. The restaurant was very clean, and our server Eva gave me a complimentary Birthday dessert, which was the perfect way to end the night. For breakfast they serve buffet $25/Person it's good but not really for me. Ordered Russian River Omelet for my wife and got to taste it for it was outstanding (4.6/5) Overall, we had a fantastic experience at Coastal Kitchen. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the ambiance was lovely. Definitely recommend for anyone staying at the Hilton San Diego Del Mar or looking for a great dining experience in the area.

The cocktail was good, but standard. In the age of craft cocktails, especially at a place with interesting food, an elevated cocktail menu would be nice. We were started with a little smoked salmon & caviar bite. I had the blue cheese soufle, which was yummy and not heavily flavored with blue cheese. Not that. That's a bad thing for me, but other folks might have an opinion. On the plate was a small salad as well. Or the entree. I had the lamb chops, which were delicious. And for dessert I had the pistachio something. Not sure what it was called but it was a little bit like a moose cake. Overall it was an excellent dinner, the facility was lovely, the service was great. My only knock was I would have hoped for some craft cocktail menu.

Wine service was quick and friendly, a young lady from New Zealand, we learned that when we ordered a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, $19, and shared a few highlights of our several visits there.

Perhaps a shift change? Another waitress came by about 10 minutes later to take our order. The menu includes nine starters, from salad to a blue cheese soufflé. The menu changes and contains different pasta dishes. The six entrées ranged from cheese ravioli to swordfish to rack of lamb to beef tenderloin, $80. They traditionally serve an Amuse Bouche. Tonight featured a housemade potato chip. salty and spiced, with seafood similar to smoked salmon, Crème fresh, lemon, and caviar on top. (Delicious. Sadly, this turned out to be the best part of the meal.) We've enjoyed the sushi and sashimi menu in the bar previously. The Roll menu includes lobster, ranch, market, crunchy, and others ranging in price from $24 to $35. We had to ask the server for the ingredients of the rolls she didn't have a complete list. So we went with the Tempura lobster roll topped with salmon, avocado, lemon, aïoli and dill, $35. The radiatori pasta ($35) with veal came out in about 15 minutes, and we started sharing. There was a big delay in getting the Sushi - 25 minutes. The waitress apologized and gave us a free glass of wine. There were only two other tables in the bar area being served, one person at the bar, and the main restaurant looked to be half full. The sushi chef near the front door (main kitchen is in the back) didn't look busy. Perhaps our order didn't get submitted properly? It's hard to imagine there could be such delays unless they are short-staffed on Tuesday nights. Or new staff?
