What are prices like? I’m going to SD in April and it’s a short walk from the hotel, but the online menu doesn’t have prices. Thanks.

Thanks. A little pricey for my budget.

If you are staying in this area some other restaurants to consider (short Uber ride) could be Monello (Italian, housemade pasta), Lion Share (excellent cocktails, but also good food), Ironside (Seafood),

If you have a car (or would be OK with a longer Uber) there are also interesting places towards North Park, Hillcrest like Cucina Urbana, Smoking Goat, Cori

I’m staying in the Gaslamp District. No car.
