The Marine Room in San Diego is not a typical seaside seafood spot. This restaurant is majorly famous on social media due to its unique location right by the seaside. It’s truly one of the most scenic restaurants in Southern California.
The very best ocean views
The restaurant is not just on the shore. Once the tide comes in, it’s literally in the ocean. That’s why High Tide is the most exciting time at this fine-dining establishment. Once the tide rolls in at night during a certain season, the ocean waves start crashing against the windows in the most dramatic display of nature you can witness while also enjoying fine dining.
Sunset is not the only time to enjoy the seaside scenery. The floor-to-ceiling windows display gorgeous views of the ocean at all times of day. Sunshine streaming through their glistening windows is just as beautiful as the high-tide waves lapping up to the glass.
A daytime lunch reservation is the best time to enjoy all the sunshine soaked seaside views. Of course, sunset dinner reservations are also in very high demand. But the most prime dining experience of High Tide is only available for one season out of the year. The summer season is the only time you can witness the breathtaking, crashing waves while sampling a selection of the finest seafood. It’s the most spectacular dinner and show straight from Mother Nature.
Fine-dining menu
If you’re thinking that the views are the only draw at The Marine Room, you’d be sorely mistaken. They are just as renowned for their “globally-inspired, seafood-forward menu” and “curated selection of innovative, chef-driven craft-cocktails, wine, and beer.” It even ranked in OpenTable’s Top 100 Most Scenic Restaurants in America and San Diego Magazine’s Most Romantic and Best Chef.
This incredible restaurant is definitely worth the two hour drive to San Diego. Just make sure you make a reservation well in advance as the restaurant was listed as one of the trendiest TikTok restaurants in the U.S. Grab a special someone and cruise down to The Marine Room for the most uniquely dramatic romantic dinner you’ve ever experienced.
