Best Outdoor Dining in Downtown Del Mar

Dining in Downtown Del Mar never disappoints.  We are so lucky to enjoy outdoor dining nearly year round, but nothing beats these long summertime days for lingering on the patio enjoying savory sunset dinners.

With an eye to the ocean, Prepkitchen Del Mar is located in the heart of the picturesque San Diego neighborhood of Del Mar.  Boasting local “Best Outdoor Dining” accolades, Prepkitchen Del Mar offers exceptional sun-kissed patio seating in addition to an indoor dining room, brimming with antique finds and rustic simplicity.  Mirroring its sister locations – Prepkitchen La Jolla and Prepkitchen Little Italy – Del Mar serves quality driven, seasonally minded and inspired food. For more information, hours of operation and full menus visit Prepkitchen.

Our dinner began with the Caesar salad which had just the right amount of dressing and anchovy.  Leaves are whole unless you request the salad chopped.  Both the salmon and cod dinners were perfectly cooked with sides that enhanced the main dishes.  The ham and succotash served with the salmon was exceptionally delightful and the portions were quite generous.

With a touch of room for dessert, we shared the stone fruit tart – peaches and plums – topped with vanilla ice cream and almonds. Light and yummy.

Service was warm and friendly- and being south a bit from 15th street, the parking is a breeze….
