14 Best Bars in San Diego | Condé Nast Traveler
"With cozy leather booths, stools lining the sleek bar, and thoughtfully designed acoustics (no shouting across the room needed), Madison is where you take a date you want to wine and dine. Most of the cocktails are spirit-forward, and don't try to use gimmicks to get you sipping—these are drinks that demand to be taken seriously (or at least considered on par with those in New York or London). To wit: the View From Above pairs whiskey and chile liqueur with lemon, while the Belle Époque blends locally distilled hibiscus vodka with pomegranate nectar, lemon, and prosecco." - Archana Ram
