The 38 Best Restaurants in San Diego | Eater San Diego

"From this elegant and contemporary restaurant, chef Jason Knibb and team execute dishes from an eclectic menu that spans the globe, using hyper locally sourced ingredients. It’s no surprise the folks at Michelin have recognized this La Jolla restaurant as a guide inclusion. While Nine-Ten offers lunch and weekend brunch as well as a great bar menu, dinner is its main event with highlights that include Knibb’s signature Jamaican jerk pork belly, as well as his takes on the Italian classic cacio e pepe and hamachi sashimi served with marinated baby shitake mushrooms to kick off the meal. For a truly remarkable meal, splurge on the “Mercy of the Chef” dinner, a six-course culinary adventure that offers dishes not on the regular menu. Know before you go: When you want to truly impress guests with chef Knibb’s plates, ambiance, and a pleasant after-meal saunter around La Jolla Cove, Nine-Ten is where you want to book." - Candice Woo
