Fun Dates in San Diego
Romantic Restaurants
Bertrand at Mister A's - French
Midtown San Diego
Take the elevator to the top floor, when you get there you won't believe your
eyes! Huge jetliners sweep past at eye level, like nowhere else. San Diego's
beautiful skyline: San Diego Bay, Balboa Park, the world famous Zoo, Coronado,
and Point Loma. Why settle for just an ocean view when you can see the entire
city from one vantage point. There's nowhere else you can see a view like this.

Balboa Park San Diego
Just minutes from Downtown San Diego, the Convention Center, and Mission Valley,
The Prado at Balboa Park is located in one of the park's most beautiful buildings,
The House of Hospitality.

Prado's website or call 619-557-9441 for reservations
Candelas - Mexican
San Diego
You won’t find chips and salsa at Candelas. This Mexican restaurant is
unlike most. The alta cocina at this romantic downtown spot features indigenous
Mexican ingredients such as nopales, corn, avocados, epazote and a variety of
chiles; all skillfully prepared and artfully arranged with nary a margarita
in sight. The many candles and gracious staff create an intimate, nearly magical
environment. On most nights you can wander next door to the bar and listen to
the very best dance music in all of San Diego.
Visit Candelas'
website or call 619 702-4455 for reservations

Coronado
Located just one block from the beach on Coronado Island, Chez Loma occupies
The Carey Hizar House, a Historical Landmark home. Decorated with fine art and
French provincial décor, this is an elegant dining experience with beautiful
presentation and fine ingredients. Chez Loma is consistently one of the highest
rated French Continental restaurants in Southern California.

Sky Room - French Continental
La Jolla
If you're looking for a romantic spot, Skyroom has a panoramic view
of the ocean from any of the 12 booths and tables. The decor is elegant, with
burgundy draperies framing three walls of windows. Service is discreet, and
the gourmet Continental cuisine measures up to the surroundings. Notable menu
items include the lobster-prawn martini with a horseradish cognac sauce, a Boston
limestone lettuce salad with port vinaigrette dressing, sauteed English Channel
dover sole and nightly desserts that vary according to the chef's whim.

Singles Clubs and Bars
Thrusters Lounge
Pacific Beach
The former Matador Bar has recently transmogrified into this downtown-style
club at the beach. You won't find many flip-flop-clad locals in this tiny place;
it's more of a dress-up affair that caters to scenesters from their mid-20s
to early 30s who like being jammed together cheek to platform shoes. Visit
the Thruster's Lounge
website
Maloney's Tavern
Gaslamp Quarter
Perhaps it's a bit of a stretch to combine a sprawling, multi-room
nightclub with the Old World charm of an Irish pub, but it works. Packed with
TVs and beer taps, this underground club caters to the post-college crowd. DJs
feed vinyl favorites from techno to Tom Petty through the sound system seven
nights a week. Visit the Maloney's
Tavern website
Henry's Pub
Gaslamp Quarter
In the world of regionally themed bars and pubs, there are the stalwart heroes
that dominate the scene for their cultural reputation as partiers. Thanks to
a varied nightly entertainment lineup, Henry's Pub keeps the locals partying
with mainstays like big-hair cover-song night "Flock of '80s" on Thursdays,
Sunday karaoke, live music and DJ mixes every night in between. Come in early
for dinner; there are plenty of comfy booths in which to cavort. Visit
the Henry's Pub website
