Zack Parker: I went to Trust for my wife's birthday the other night and they sure didn't disappoint. Everything that we tried was absolutely delicious. Get the chef's charcuterie, lamb meatballs and Hamachi crudo!

Lee Movic: A true pioneer in San Diego beer, and an ardent supporter of local/quality food. Pizza is what's up here, with veggie & vegan options galore. Amazing charcuterie (house made). Nate says: soyrizo + 🍳
MattersOfGrey.com: An epic craft beer and pizza joint. Even better now that they expanded the space. Try the Margherita pizza

Carter Gibson: Jsix's Christian Graves, who manages to successfully juggle his exec chef duties and his GM role, also finds time to make charcuterie and champion sustainable seafood and whole animal cookery.

Serious Eats: Tasty half-pound burgers are the star attraction of one of the best lunch deals in the Gaslamp.
Wilson Favre-Delerue: Fabulous location smack in the centre of La Jolla. Rooms, however, are a bit aged.
La Jolla Blue Book: Historic beauty in the heart of La Jolla. Built in 1913 as the Colonial Apartment and Hotel, the Grande Colonial was a trailblazer in its day.
Pixy 🧙🏼♀️: Very Bad and rude service don't waste your money here

Leif E. Pedersen: Very good. Now if you ask me - go with a couple of the starters and sides instead of a main. They are all really excellent.

Juan Lalinde: Amazing service! Super helpful with kids and the food is super tasty! I had the bolognese and it was scrumptious
Ruslan Fazlyev: Squid pasta is amazing, mussels are great, so is tomato/burrata bruschetta. Tried the calamari, would not recommend them. Great place overall
Phil Ohme: Amazing food, especially the all-beef meatballs and fresh-made pasta.
