A delightful dining experience! The views of the San Diego bay are stunning, especially at sunset. I loved the beer-braised short ribs paired with creamy truffle mashed potatoes. Service was top-notch, making it perfect for any occasion. Can’t wait to return!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a gem! Tom Ham's Lighthouse offers breathtaking views of the San Diego bay that make every meal feel special. My recent lunch featured their creamy clam chowder and the Braised Beef Short Ribs, both of which were divine!

The service was attentive, and I appreciated their patience with my dietary needs. 💚

This cozy spot is perfect for family gatherings or a romantic dinner, and the cocktails are a delightful touch! I can’t wait to return for dinner and catch that sunset... 🌅
