"Perched on the twelfth floor of the Manchester Financial Building in downtown, Mr. A’s is a historic landmark of San Diego. A timeless venue, this elegant restaurant has been a top destination for engagements, weddings, and other special moments. Since 1965, this space has exuded elegance through its twinkling crystal chandeliers, velvet seating, iconic private dining room called the Blue Room, and rich drapery. Both intimate and grand events are welcome here, where the fine dining courses are presented by executive chef Stéphane Voitzwinkler. His French and German roots are highlighted in his techniques while preparing three-course menus for private events which include an egg yolk raviolo with house-made ricotta and the butter poached Maine lobster cacio e pepe." - Roxana Becerril
"The sky-high Bankers Hill restaurant is introducing a novel take on the happy hour. From Sunday through Wednesday from 4 to 6:30 p.m. at its bar and lounge, Mister A’s will run a daily special that includes a dish and a drink. Tuesdays feature a trio of Mister A’s favorites — Caesar salad, truffle fries, and a classic martini — for $25 or $20 without the martini. Diners can make the experience feel even more luxe by upgrading to caviar fries for an extra $20. Wednesdays are all about wagyu, when $25 gets diners a wagyu burger topped with caramelized onions, applewood smoked bacon, and raclette cheese plus a milkshake or a .394 pale ale. Boozy shakes can be requested for an additional $7.50 a pop." - Roxana Becerril
"Perched on a mellow rooftop with 180-degree views of the city, this local icon offers compelling interpretations of European classics. Dishes like homemade ricotta agnolotti, caviar Tater Tots, Maine lobster fritters, braised short ribs served with duck fat pommes, and carbonara macaroni and cheese make for a comforting date-night meal to sate any hungry pair. Much of the menu is vegetarian- and gluten-free-friendly, so it’s an easy choice for partners who have dietary restrictions." - Helen I. Hwang
