Serea is proud to bring an exquisite sea-to-table dining experience to San Diego in a comfortable yet sophisticated setting. Located just steps from the beach in the legendary Hotel del Coronado, the restaurant’s key focus is the bounty of the sea. The menu focuses on sustainable seafood, with a coastal cuisine menu that spotlights the best of the region’s oceans, farms and fields, ranging from the California Coast down to the Baja Peninsula.
Creative cuisine with a global flair is prepared by San Diego’s own Chef Jojo Ruiz, who creates elegant, fresh dishes with just a hint of Mediterranean flair.
The menu offers a robust variety of environmentally friendly dishes with both raw and cooked options. From fresh, whole catch fish to seafood towers and composed dishes, every item on the menu is impeccably prepared and sourced from a variety of carefully chosen local and regional purveyors.
If the historic “Hotel Del” is the jewel of Coronado Island, then snagging a seat on Serẽa’s sprawling patio is like nestling into said jewel box. Thanks to its stunning views of the hotel’s landscaped grounds and the ocean beyond, this is one of the prettiest perches in all of California. Just be sure to snag a reservation, because you’ll have competition from plenty of wedding parties and conference-goers.
Deep-pocketed pescatarians will be delighted by the freshness and sustainability of the fish on offer—from inviting platters of raw oysters and cracked Maine lobster to flash-fried red snapper from Baja, offered by the pound for sharing. And even after the sun finally fades on the million-dollar view, the outdoor fireplace sets an exquisite mood.
