Queenstown Public House Expanding to Downtown La Jolla | Eater San Diego

"An enduringly-popular brunch spot in Little Italy, Queenstown Public House will be making its way to the heart of downtown La Jolla. Debuting in 2013 in a renovated historic house at the corner of Columbia and Cedar and named for a resort town in New Zealand, the New Zealand-inspired all-day restaurant serves a variety of salads and snacks as well as grass-fed beef and New Zealand lamb burgers, fish and chips, and New Zealand meat pies. Part of a local group that includes other neighborhood concepts, the owners are projecting a March 2022 opening for the La Jolla location; longtime design partner Michael Soriano is returning and promises the restaurant’s iconic sheep will appear in the design, with an emphasis on patio seating, the dining room’s high ceilings, and playful elements like glass greenhouses suspended above booths." - Candice Woo
