Dining room at JRDN Restaurant, San Diego, CAPacific Beach's JRDN (pronounced Jordan) has officially earned its place as a San Diego hot-spot and is leading the charge to transform PB from frat boy enclave to a seaside dining destination. In the casual space, executive chef David Warner oversees the Cal-fresh-meets-steakhouse menu which offers good value, especially when considering this is a beachfront hotel restaurant. Dishes one might find include a soft egg salad featuring braised pork, avocado and pear; Alaskan halibut cheeks with roasted sunchokes, morels and horchata; seared scallops; and Moroccan lamb lollipops. Those in meat mode will enjoy the fine selection of cuts; prices include a rub, sauce and two sides (we recommend the grilled asparagus), a rarity in today’s à la carte steakhouse economics. Although not featured on the menu, diners can ask for a hamburger. Two cheese plates are available as well as fun desserts (such as pb&j cheesecake with fresh local strawberries) from pastry chef Jose Alonso. Appropriately, the international wine list focuses on the West Coast states. In the lounge area, guests can order signature cocktails and appetizers for $9 or less, and a draft beer is only $3 during daily happy hour. And how can you beat free valet parking at the beach?
