Christophe Rull Patisserie

Hot San Diego Restaurant Openings You May Have Missed, September 2025 | Eater San Diego

"Helmed by award-winning baker Christophe Rull, this namesake French patisserie in North City, San Marcos turns out just 18 baguettes a day (arrive early if you want one) along with melt-in-your-mouth croissants, chocolates, and handcrafted macarons; raised by the seaside in Marseilles and seasoned in three Michelin-starred kitchens before posts at the MGM Grand, a Bel-Air luxury hotel, and Park Hyatt Aviara, Rull says he needs to be near the ocean and is happiest here, with a pastry school and chocolate program on the horizon." - Helen I.
