Urban Solace - Restaurant Review
Tucked away behind a white, stucco exterior Urban Solace of North Park brings a taste of home back into the neighborhood. Serving up favorites that are sure to reawaken childhood memories as well as the senses, Chef Matt Gordon epitomizes the idea of New American Comfort Food. Along with a cozy softly lit interior, they offer patio seating and a live jazz quartet on featured nights. Pair this with an impressive list of West Coast wines and a menu featuring locally sourced produce and this bit of home is a welcome addition to the city.

Chart House
Address: 2588 S Coast Highway 101, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, CA 92007 (Map)
It’s not hard to find eateries boasting “ocean views” in San Diego, but it is rare to find a noteworthy restaurant that happens to claim such prime oceanfront real-estate as Chart House. Picturesquely positioned along the S. Coast Highway 101 (with the San Elijo Lagoon to the east), the Chart House’s expansive dining room faces the Pacific Ocean and plates up some of the finest sunsets around. As the waves lap upon the rocky shore before you, settle in and savor the Chart House’s array of hot and cold appetizers, signature seafood entrees, prime steaks, and luscious desserts. Pair the evening with any of their happy hour libations or fine wine and whiskey offerings for a well-rounded and stimulating experience.
